4 months ago @raghav-gsa the PR addressing this has been merged since v17.0.0. It added an optional property invalidDateMessage that when paired with required will produce the error messages you are expecting. Basic Formly Datepicker demo shows an example of these properties in action: https://gsa.github.io/sam-design-system/?path=/story/formly-datepicker--basic
Components Involved formly datepicker component now allowing to show both "This field is required" and "Valid date format required (ex: MM/DD/YYYY)" validation messages for empty and invalid date formats only one is possible currently. Since retuned value is null for both cases.
User enter empty and moved cursor out of box: "This field is required" or Valid date format required (ex: MM/DD/YYYY)
returned value to component: null
User entered invalid date format "This field is required" or Valid date format required (ex: MM/DD/YYYY)
returned value to component: null
Since returned value is null I a unable to customize my implementation to determine whether its invalid date or empty selection
Expected Behavior
formly datepicker component should allow both "This field is required" and "Valid date format required (ex: MM/DD/YYYY)" validation messages for empty and invalid dates entered.
Actual Behavior It is showing either of these messages for empty and invalid dates entered by user "This field is required" and "Valid date format required (ex: MM/DD/YYYY)" validation messages
