Before we get started, make sure you have a working Angular 15 application set up on your machine. Additionally, ensure that you have the necessary dependencies installed, including Angular Material and its corresponding CSS styles.

 

To add Angular Material to your project, run the following command in your terminal.

npm install @angular/material@15 @angular/cdk@15

 

In the component file (app.module.ts), import the required Angular Material modules.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';

import { AppRoutingModule } from './app-routing.module';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';
import { MatDatepickerModule } from '@angular/material/datepicker';
import { MatNativeDateModule } from '@angular/material/core';
import { MatFormFieldModule } from '@angular/material/form-field';
import { MatInputModule } from '@angular/material/input';
import { MatButtonModule } from '@angular/material/button'

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    AppRoutingModule,
    BrowserAnimationsModule,
    MatDatepickerModule,
    MatNativeDateModule,
    MatFormFieldModule,
    MatInputModule,
    MatButtonModule 
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

 

 

Create a new component that will contain your datepicker. For example, you can create a DatepickerComponent using the Angular CLI.

ng generate component Datepicker

 

In your DatepickerComponent template file, add the action button inside the datepicker component.

src/app/app.component.html

<div class="container" style="margin:70px;">
	<h2>How To Open Datepicker Popup In Angular 15 Material - Websolutionstuff</h2>
	<mat-form-field class="example-full-width" appearance="fill">
		<mat-label>Choose a date</mat-label>
		<input matInput [matDatepicker]="picker">
		<mat-hint>MM/DD/YYYY</mat-hint>
		<mat-datepicker-toggle matIconSuffix [for]="picker"></mat-datepicker-toggle>
		<mat-datepicker touchUi #picker></mat-datepicker>
	  </mat-form-field>
</div>

 

Start the Angular development server using the ng serve command and open the app in your browser.

ng serve

Output:

 

By following these steps, you have successfully implemented the functionality to open the datepicker popup programmatically in Angular 15 Material.
