Topic: need an example of how to use mdb-date-picker in a reactive form with formControlName
<!--<div class="md-form"> <i class="fa fa-calendar prefix grey-text"></i> <input type="text" id="birthdate" class="form-control" formControlName="birthdate" mdbInputDirective data-error="Valid birthdate is required" data-success=" "> <label for="birthdate">Birth date</label> </div> --> <div class="md-form"> <i class="fa fa-calendar prefix grey-text"></i> <mdb-date-picker id="birthdate" class="form-control" formControlName="birthdate" mdbInputDirective data-error="Valid birthdate is required" data-success=" "></mdb-date-picker> <label for="birthdate">Birth date</label> </div>

Even without mdbinputdirective the validation message is not showing. Actually even without that the styling is not the same as say:
<div class="md-form">
<i class="fa fa-user prefix grey-text"></i>
<input type="text" id="lastname" class="form-control" formControlName="lastname" mdbInputDirective
data-error="Lastname is required" data-success=" ">
<label for="lastname">Last name</label>
</div>
The selected date overlaps the label. Now the best I could achieve is this:
<div class="md-form">
<i class="fa fa-calendar prefix grey-text"></i>
<mdb-date-picker [options]="birthDateDatePickerOptions"
id="birthdate" formControlName="birthdate"
data-error="Valid birthdate is required" data-success=" "></mdb-date-picker>
<label for="lastname">Birth date</label>
</div>
This tied to the reactive "ts" validation fine. The submit button stays disabled until I select a date, which is great, but there are no visual clues to the user. I think this is because of the lack of mdbinputdirective.
Could you show me how to make these two lastname/birthdate would work exactly the same? Lastname is working great with showing the validation and the likes.

I definitely need validation. Thank you for quick response.

Also when you try to key in the date after tabbing to the field I get this when I type
01/20
I get
01/20/Nan
My format is MM/DD/YYYY - which is working when I select from a calendar.

The keyboard seems to work when the format is the default like
yyyy-mm-dd
2015-01-01 works but not with mm/dd/yyyy

As I already mentioned, validation from mdbInputDirective doesn't work correctly on date picker component. We are currently working to prepare validation that will work on all form components. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thank you for reporting the problem with date typing. We will take a closer look at it.
