Date Picker does not open after updating EmberJS to version 1.8

[ralph]

Hello,

unfortunately, the date picker does not open any more after updating Ember to version 1.8 (the one including metal views). Here is a fork demonstrating the behaviour:
https://github.com/ralph/ember-date-picker

I only changed the EmberJS bower dependency, ran bower install and opened the example html file. Unfortunately, I could not figure out what is going wrong yet.

Regards

I think this might be caused by the fact that the templates are pre-compiled, both for this control and for the spinner on which it's dependent. The inclusion of MetalViews within 1.8 would require that these templates are re-generated.

Good point @kwal :)

Sorry for the delay on this guys, I've just been super busy with other commitments lately and haven't had the time to maintain this or ember-spin-box as much as I'd like to.

I will do my best to try to get this updated to work under 1.8+ as soon as I can, but I'd be more than happy to accept pull requests as well. :-)

I totally understand, I haven't committed anything to open source lately. :(

That being said, I've replaced ember-date-picker with some simpler Bootstrap based controls in my current project, as it turned out I didn't need a full fledged date picker after all. So the probability that I'll pick this up is pretty low, to be honest.

Stil, your date picker is awesome, and I hope it will live on! :)

No problem - thanks for putting this out there in the first place =)

waiting eagerly to see it working in ember 1.8
