Kendo AngularJS kendo-date-picker: How to force FORM posting format to yyyy-MM-dd

[IanV]

I am updating an older site running AngularJS and Kendo in Asp.Net MVC

My html Form has this control that is posted to the back end:

 

@using (Html.BeginForm( new { name = "frmMain", novalidate = "", id = "frmMain"  }))
     <input kendo-date-picker
     ng-model=".BiWeeklyStartDate"
          k-parse-formats="['yyyy-MM-dd']"
          k-format="'yyyy-MM-dd'"/></p>

The date that is posted to the backend is a full date. How can I change that so that the Kendo Control sends "yyyy-MM-dd" to the backend only?

Hello Ian,

The DatePicker value can be converted to the desired one via the kendo.toString method:

var datepicker = $("#datepicker").data("kendoDatePicker");
var value = datepicker.value();
kendo.toString(value,"dd/MM/YYYY")

More information can be obtained in the following SO thread: https://stackoverflow.com/a/25286283/12355063

And a Dojo where he above is demonstrated: https://dojo.telerik.com/OKOhAgAs

Let me know if this is what you are looking for.
