Current behavior When updating a date programatically, it sends an input event

Expected behavior It shouldn’t send an input event

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions I don’t think it should send back an input event. We already know that…

Here for the setDate, the second parameter should be false https://github.com/ankurk91/vue-flatpickr-component/blob/master/src/component.vue#L132

Imagine I’ve a dropdown to select pre-defined dates, and I’ve a custom entry for custom date. When I listen for input event, I set the dropdown value to custom, and after the datepicker fire an event, which make the dropdown do it’s thing and so on.

I believe that this date change should be done silently.

Your second fiddle is your custom flatpickr component. You are not taking care of two way sync. Your second fiddle does not update the DOM (flatpickr instance), it only update the v-model.

I have already explained why this component always fires change event, see my above comment.

Feel free to fork, copy this component and use in your project.

1. https://jsfiddle.net/xw18myL0/ change event fires when I press Set date programmatically button.
2. https://jsfiddle.net/qc73xshj/ change event does not fire when press Set date programmatically button.

Change events works when user change date using picker, that is fine.

I would like to have a second option. Is it possible using this pluggin?
