Events

This article explains the events available in the Telerik TimePicker for Blazor:

• OnChange
• ValueChanged
• OnBlur

OnChange

The OnChange event represents a user action - confirmation of the current value. It fires when the user presses Enter in the input, or when the input loses focus.

The time picker is a generic component, so you must provide either a Value, or a type to the T parameter of the component.

Handle OnChange

@result
<br />

<TelerikTimePicker T="DateTime" OnChange="@MyOnChangeHandler"></TelerikTimePicker>

@code {
    string result;

    private void MyOnChangeHandler(object theUserInput)
    {
        // the handler receives an object that you may need to cast to the type of the component
        // if you do not provide a Value, you must provide the Type parameter to the component
        result = string.Format("The user entered: {0:HH:mm:ss}", (DateTime)theUserInput);
    }
}

The event is an EventCallback and it can be synchronous (return void), or it can also be asynchronous and return async Task.

The OnChange event is a custom event and does not interfere with bindings, so you can use it together with models and forms.

Handle OnChange and use two-way binding

@result
<br />
model value: @thePickerValue
<br />

<TelerikTimePicker @bind-Value="@thePickerValue" OnChange="@MyOnChangeHandler"></TelerikTimePicker>

@code {
    string result;

    DateTime? thePickerValue { get; set; } = DateTime.Now;

    private void MyOnChangeHandler(object theUserInput)
    {
        // the handler receives an object that you may need to cast to the type of the component
        // if you do not provide a Value, you must provide the Type parameter to the component
        result = string.Format("The user entered: {0}", (theUserInput as DateTime?).Value);
    }
}

ValueChanged

The ValueChanged event fires upon every change (for example, keystroke) in the input, and upon clicking the Set or Now buttons in the dropdown.

Handle ValueChanged

@result
<br />

<TelerikTimePicker ValueChanged="@( (DateTime d) => MyValueChangeHandler(d) )"></TelerikTimePicker>

@code {
    string result;

    private void MyValueChangeHandler(DateTime theUserInput)
    {
        result = string.Format("The user entered: {0}", theUserInput);
    }
}

The event is an EventCallback and it can be synchronous (return void), or it can also be asynchronous and return async Task.

The lambda expression in the handler is required by the framework: https://github.com/aspnet/AspNetCore/issues/12226.

Handle ValueChanged and provide initial value

@result
<br />
model value: @thePickerValue
<br />

<TelerikTimePicker Value="@thePickerValue" ValueChanged="@( (DateTime d) => MyValueChangeHandler(d) )"></TelerikTimePicker>

@code {
    string result;

    DateTime thePickerValue { get; set; } = DateTime.Now;

    private void MyValueChangeHandler(DateTime theUserInput)
    {
        result = $"The user entered: {theUserInput}";

        //you have to update the model manually because handling the ValueChanged event does not let you use @bind-Value
        thePickerValue = theUserInput;
    }
}

OnBlur

The OnBlur event fires when the component loses focus.

Handle the OnBlur event

@* You do not have to use OnChange to react to loss of focus *@

<TelerikTimePicker @bind-Value="@TheTime"
                   OnBlur="@OnBlurHandler">
</TelerikTimePicker>

@code{
    async Task OnBlurHandler()
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"BLUR fired, current value is {TheTime}.");
    }

    DateTime? TheTime { get; set; } = DateTime.Now;
}
