• Provide a minimal code snippet, please make sure it is well formatted.
  I have an input from a reactiveForm like this:

<input type="text" class="form-control form-control-lg form-control-solid" placeholder="01/01/2031" name="data" formControlName="data" [dpDayPicker]="datepickerConfig" theme="dp-material" />

I have to change the locale of dpDayPicker to italian, so datepickerConfig is setted this way:

datepickerConfig = { locale: 'it' };

But on compile I receive the following error:

`
Error: src/app/pages/data-page/page-form.component.html:111:18 - error TS2559: Type '{ locale: string; }' has no properties in common with type 'IDatePickerDirectiveConfig'.

111 [dpDayPicker]="datepickerConfig"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Error occurs in the template of component FormComponent.

✖ Failed to compile.`

What am I doing wrong?

i can confirm the issue.
i think it was broken here https://github.com/vlio20/angular-datepicker/pull/573/files

maybe we need a better documentation on how to set (or load) the locale in "dayjs way"

@FrancYescO can you provide a stackblitz?

[FrancYescO]

not much to do, just add locale: 'it' to the config, seems it was a breaking changes not cited while migrating to dayjs

(stackblitz was a clone and edit from one you posted in the past)

init dayjs: dayjs.locale(languageCode);

Just started using this component and ran into this issue. Looking forward to a fix hopefully in the not too distant future.

At last I've managed to change the locale. Did not find an information anywhere!

In *.ts file I added

import 'dayjs/locale/ru';
import dayjs from "dayjs";

And in the same file in constructor:
dayjs.locale('ru')

Also I had to add to tsconfig.app.json:
"allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true
in "compilerOptions".

In package.json I have
"dayjs": "^1.11.7",
