Angular Calendar - Handle the Value Change Event

To process a new calendar value, you need to handle the value change event. If the handling function is not going to be changed during the lifetime of the UI component, assign it to the onValueChanged property when you configure the UI component.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#calendarContainer").dxCalendar({
        onValueChanged: function (e) {
            const previousValue = e.previousValue;
            const newValue = e.value;
            // Event handling commands go here
        }
    });
});
Angular
HTML
TypeScript
<dx-calendar ...
    [(value)]="calendar_value"
    (onValueChanged)="calendar_valueChanged($event)">
</dx-calendar>
import { DxCalendarModule } from "devextreme-angular";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    calendar_value: Date = new Date();

    calendar_valueChanged (e) {
        const previousValue = e.previousValue;
        const newValue = e.value;
        // Event handling commands go here
    }
}
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // ...
        DxCalendarModule
    ],
    // ...
})
Vue
App.vue
<template>
    <DxCalendar
        v-model="calendarValue"
        @value-changed="calendarValueChanged"
    />
</template>

<script>
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import DxCalendar from 'devextreme-vue/calendar';

export default {
    components: {
        DxCalendar
    },
    data() {
        calendarValue: new Date()
    },
    methods: {
        calendarValueChanged: function(e) {
            const previousValue = e.previousValue;
            const newValue = e.value;
            // Event handling commands go here
        }
    }
}
</script>
React
App.js
import React from 'react';

import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import Calendar from 'devextreme-react/calendar';

class App extends React.Component {
    constructor() {
        super();

        this.state = {
            calendarValue: new Date()
        };

        this.calendarValueChanged = this.calendarValueChanged.bind(this);
    }

    render() {
        return (
            <Calendar
                value={this.state.calendarValue}
                onValueChanged={this.calendarValueChanged} />
        );
    }

    calendarValueChanged(e) {
        const previousValue = e.previousValue;
        const newValue = e.value;
        // Event handling commands go here
        this.setState({ value: newValue });
    }
}
export default App;
jQuery

If you are going to change event handlers at runtime, or if you need to attach several handlers to the value change event, subscribe to this event using the on(eventName, eventHandler) method.

JavaScript
const valueChangedHandler1 = function (e) {
    const previousValue = e.previousValue;
    const newValue = e.value;
    // First handler of the "valueChanged" event
};

const valueChangedHandler2 = function (e) {
    const previousValue = e.previousValue;
    const newValue = e.value;
    // Second handler of the "valueChanged" event
};

$("#calendarContainer").dxCalendar("instance")
    .on("valueChanged", valueChangedHandler1)
    .on("valueChanged", valueChangedHandler2);
