javascript - Bootstrap datepicker and bootstrap validator

Question

I am using the bootstrap datepicker from here and the bootstrap validator from here. Also I am using bootstrap v3.1.1.

After selecting a date from datepicker the validator does not react. It works just when I use the keyboard to enter a date.

Here is my HTML code:

<form id="myForm" method="POST"> 
   <div class="col-lg-3">
     <div class="form-group">
        <input name="endDate" type="text" class="datepicker form-control">
     </div>
   </div>
</form>

In .js file I added:

$(document).ready(function () {
  $('.datepicker').datepicker();
)};

and for validators:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('#myForm').bootstrapValidator({
        feedbackIcons: {
            valid: 'glyphicon glyphicon-ok',
            invalid: 'glyphicon glyphicon-remove',
            validating: 'glyphicon glyphicon-refresh'
        },
        fields: {
            endDate: {
                validators: {
                    date: {
                        format: 'DD/MM/YYYY',
                        message: 'The format is dd/mm/yyyy'
                    },
                    notEmpty: {
                        message: 'The field can not be empty'
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    });
});

When using BootstrapValidator with Bootstrap-datetimepicker or Bootstrap-datepicker, you should revalidate the date field.

So you should add this:

1) using with bootstrap-datetimepicker :

$('.date')
    .on('dp.change dp.show', function(e) {
        // Revalidate the date when user change it
        $('#myForm').bootstrapValidator('revalidateField', 'endDate');
});

2) using with bootstrap-datepicker :

$('.datepicker')
    .on('changeDate show', function(e) {
        // Revalidate the date when user change it
        $('#myForm').bootstrapValidator('revalidateField', 'endDate');
});

See the datetimepicker example for more information.
