UI5 custom control ui5-cc-dayjs

Usage of dayjs directly in a UI5 custom control.

Features

Dayjs is a JavaScript library for parsing, validating, and formatting dates.
With this custom control, you can use dayjs in your UI5 App.

• use custom input and output formats (i.e. input format YYYY-MM-DD and output format We/May/2022)
• manipulate your dates (i.e. add/remove days, months, years, etc.)
• get start/end of the week, month, year, etc.
• automatic translation, if present use locale of Fiori Launchpad, if not present use browser language

Sample App with usage

https://github.com/marianfoo/ui5-dayjs-sample/blob/main/uimodule/webapp/view/MainView.view.xml

Install

$> yarn add @marianfoo/ui5-cc-dayjs
# or
$> npm install @marianfoo/ui5-cc-dayjs

Usage

1. define the dependeny in $yourapp/package.json

   // it is already in "dependencies" after installation
   "ui5": {
     "dependencies": [
       // ...
       "ui5-cc-dayjs",
       // ...
     ]
   }

2. declare the namespace in your XML view and use the custom control from that namespace

   <mvc:View ... 
           xmlns:datejs="ui5-community.dayjs"
           ...>
      <datejs:DayjsText id="dayjsControl" value="2014/12/30" inputFormat="yyyy/MM/dd" outputFormat="dd.MM.YYYY"/>
   </mvc:View>

How it works

Control is using dayjs behind the scenes. More interfaces from dayjs are coming.

Api

Control is inheriting from sap.m.Text. So you can use all of the properties and methods of sap.m.Text.
