  • Using Angular-IMask, I'm programatically updating the field that has IMask. So I'm getting the error:
  • "Element value was changed outside of mask. Syncronize mask using mask.updateValue() to work properly."
  • How can I get imask object so I can call updateValue() ? I set the component only on the template, so I don't have any object in the component I can access.
  • HTML:
  • ```
  • <input class="form-control" ngbDatepicker #dpStart="ngbDatepicker" type="text" id="dpStart"
  • (dateSelect)="syncDateFields($event, 'start')" (change)="syncDateFields($event.target.value, 'start')"
  • name="start" placeholder="Start" [imask]="imaskDate" [unmask]="false" font />
  • <button class="btn btn-outline-secondary calendar" (click)="dpStart.toggle()" type="button">
  • <i class="fa-solid fa-calendar-days"></i>
  • </button>
  • ```
  • Component
  • ```
  • imaskDate = {
  • mask: '00/00/0000',
  • lazy: false,
  • overwrite: true

  • The problem happens when I click the datePicker button and select a date from it.
  • The datepicker object is from the ng-bootstrap module: NgbDatePicker.

In angular-imask how do I get the IMask class?
Using Angular-IMask, I'm programatically updating the field that has IMask. So I'm getting the error:

"Element value was changed outside of mask. Syncronize mask using mask.updateValue() to work properly."

How can I get imask object so I can call updateValue() ? I set the component only on the template, so I don't have any object in the component I can access.
