Please help me on below. I am using material-datepicker with reactive forms.

I am getting the following error when the form loads. Error: No value accessor for form control with name: 'birthday' at _throwError (shared.js:122) [angular] at setUpControl (shared.js:35) [angular] at FormGroupDirective.addControl (form_group_directive.js:124) [angular] at FormControlName._setUpControl (form_control_name.js:193) [angular] at FormControlName.ngOnChanges (form_control_name.js:111) [angular]

This is due to the fact the library doesn't use the ControlValueAccessor. I plan on forking and updating this as it seems development for this repo may be dead.

What you can do is wrap it with a component that implments ControlValueAccessor to have it work properly with NgModel and all the Angular/Form stuff.

This post has a really detailed example of what needs to be done.

Hope all is well, C Layton

105 is a PR made to solve this... Though maybe we all should just fork and solve this ourselves
