For anyone interested, in previous versions it did act the way you want it to, you can see in a [thing I made](https://shifter.surge.sh) ([repo](https://github.com/braden337/shifter/blob/master/src/index.html)) which uses `"vuejs-datepicker": "^0.9.29"`.

For anyone interested, in previous versions it did act the way you want it to, you can see in a thing I made (repo) which uses "vuejs-datepicker": "^0.9.29".

Today I've been working on a new thing and installed the latest version 1.5.2 and was wondering why I kept seeing the keyboard pop up.

So for now, to make it work like the way it used to, when the component is mounted I set the readonly attribute to true on the input element. I also made a method called blur, and attached that to the closed event, so that the keyboard 'done' bar (on iOS, I'm not sure how it would look on Android) clears after you pick a date or click away.

<template
  <datepicker @closed="blur"></datepicker>
</template>

<script>
module.exports = {
  mounted() {
    document
      .querySelectorAll(".vdp-datepicker input")
      .forEach(e => (e.readOnly = true));
  },
  methods: {
    blur() {
      document.querySelector(":focus").blur();
    }
  }
}
</script>
