Access data's variable in other variable's function - undefined

I need to make an date validation in Vue depending on Vue models.

The problem is how this date validation works. I need to define variable in data segment which contains disabledDate function. So here is the simplified code:

Template:

<el-date-picker type="date"
  v-model="date1"
  :picker-options="datePickerOptions1">
</el-date-picker>

JS:

data() {
  return {
    date: null,
    rev: {
      validDate: null
    },
    datePickerOptions1: {
      disabledDate(date) {
        return date < this.rev.validDate;
      }
    }
  }
},
mounted: function() {
  var today = new Date();
  this.rev.validDate = today.getDate();
}

The console says this.rev.validDate is undefined.

In my case this.rev.validDate is fetched from database while component is mounted and depending on this that el-date-picker should work.

I would ask for any suggestions :)

The method disabledDate is deeply nested to where it loses the current Vue instance (otherwise accessible via this context). To work around this, you could assign the instance to a variable, like so:

data() {
  const vm = this;

  return {
    date: null,
    rev: {
      validDate: null
    },
    datePickerOptions1: {
      disabledDate(date) {
        return date < vm.rev.validDate;
      }
    }
  }
}

Or with arrow function:

data: vm => ({
  date: null,
  rev: {
    validDate: null
  },
  datePickerOptions1: {
    disabledDate(date) {
      return date < vm.rev.validDate;
    }
  }
})
