Issue description

Current behavior:

I am using the DatePicker component and it returns:

NbCalendarViewModeComponent.html:2 ERROR TypeError: date.getMonth is not a function
    at NbNativeDateService.getMonthName (index.js?b4ac:5532)
    at NbCalendarViewModeComponent.getText (index.js?b4ac:4972)
    at Object.eval [as updateRenderer] (NbCalendarViewModeComponent.html:2)
    at Object.debugUpdateRenderer [as updateRenderer] (core.js?f18e:46485)
    at checkAndUpdateView (core.js?f18e:45467)

    at callViewAction (core.js?f18e:45827)
    at execEmbeddedViewsAction (core.js?f18e:45784)

I think it is the same error that the calendar component has #2250

hi @yggg

you were right, now it works therefore I close this ticket.

I was quite sure to pass a Date and not a string 😦

Not sure if it’s fixed by #2330 as in the original issue posting the error appears in the NbCalendarViewModeComponent and #2330 fixes errors coming from the NbCalendarDayCellComponent. If someone still facing the issue from NbCalendarViewModeComponent, please check the value of the date property on NbCalendarViewModeComponent. To do this:

1. Open the picker
2. Make error appear in the console
3. On the Elements tab in the dev tools find the nb-calendar-view-mode element and click on it, so it becomes selected
4. Go to the Console tab and type ng.getComponent($0).date
5. Post steps to reproduce and a screenshot of the value of the date property from the console here.
