Regarding moment.js

The moment.js takes a number as a date. For example, if I input 201, I get "01-01-0201 00:00:00". I want 201 to be displayed if I attempt to edit. My approach is;

if (moment(data, 'DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm:SS').isValid()) {
    console.log('data if in date format: ' + angular.toJson(data));
    return moment(data).format('MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm:SS');
} else {
    console.log('data if not in date format: ' + angular.toJson(data));
    return data;
}

Looks like this expression 

moment(data, 'DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm:SS').isValid()

should return false if data is incomplete, but Moment is very forgiving by default. You may specify the last argument in constructor to enable strict parsing:

moment('201', 'DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm:SS', true).isValid() //false
moment('01-01-2016', 'DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm:SS', true).isValid() //false
moment('01-01-2016 12:00:00', 'DD-MM-YYYY HH:mm:SS', true).isValid() //true
