I'm attempting to integrate a very basic date picker into my Angular project. The Angular CLI version is 6.2.9.
My HTML was taken straight from the Angular docs.
<mat-form-field appearance="fill">
<mat-label>Choose a date</mat-label>
<input matInput [matDatepicker]="picker">
<mat-datepicker-toggle matSuffix [for]="picker"></mat-datepicker-toggle>
<mat-datepicker #picker></mat-datepicker>
</mat-form-field>
This returned an error saying
Can't bind to 'matDatepicker' since it isn't a known property of 'input'
After a quick search I found this question that told me to include some imports, which I did adding the following to the very top of my TS code.
import { MatNativeDateModule, MatDatepickerModule, } from '@angular/material';
@NgModule({
declarations: [
HomeComponent
],
imports: [
MatDatepickerModule,
MatNativeDateModule,
FormsModule,
ReactiveFormsModule
]
})
Despite this, I'm continuing to receive the exact same error message. Have I forgotten something else in the TS file? Do I have to include something after my 'export class'? Or is this type of action just not compatible with my Angular version? Any help is appreciated.
