How to add event listener on month change event in an ion-datetime?

Ionic Framework
1

Hi,

On ion-datetime, if I change the month using the arrows < or > or if I slide the page to change the month, how can I trigger an event with the month value and the year value that is displayed after month change ?

Many thanks to anyone who can help me.

From the documentation it appears there’s no such feature but I agree it would be very nice to have.

var previous = '';
const targetNode = document.querySelector('ion-datetime#calendar');
const config = { attributes: true, childList: true, subtree: true };
const callback = function(mutationsList, observer) {
    for(const mutation of mutationsList) {
         if (mutation.type === 'attributes') {
            var e = document.querySelector('ion-datetime#calendar').shadowRoot.querySelector('ion-label').textContent;
             if(e !== previous)
             {
                 previous = e;
                 console.log(e);
             }
        }
    }
};
const observer = new MutationObserver(callback);
observer.observe(targetNode, config);
