Setting value to DD/MM/YYYY does not work

[rizkysyazuli]

My model returns data in dd/mm/yyyy format. Passing this value of ember-pikaday does not work and the input is blank.

{{#each parent.child_list as |child index|}}
  ...
  {{pikaday-input firstDay=0 format="DD/MM/YYYY" yearRange="2010,currentYear" name="child_dob[]" id=(concat 'child_dob-' index) value=child.dob placeholder="hh/bb/tttt"}}
  ...
{{/each}}

The child.dob value looks something like this 18/07/2017. I even try to put a static value in there and the result is the same. It works when i changed it into 07/18/2017 (mm/dd/yyyy).

Could you replicate this in https://ember-twiddle.com/?

Ok, I figured out why.
You're passing 18/07/2017 as value, but the addon can't know that your date is already DD/MM/YYYY formated so the switch is applied.
If you pass 07/18/2017 (en) as value and the DD/MM/YYYY you'll get the date you were looking for.

if you do moment('12-07-2018').format('DD-MM-YYYY') you'll get 07-12-2018
