Problem with Datepicker Angularjs

Question

Good night.

I’m wearing a directive for a datepicker and I’m getting the following error.

TypeError: Cannot read property 'split' of undefined

DIRECTIVE

angular.module('app').directive('datepicker', function() {
return {
    // restrict: 'A',
    require : 'ngModel',
    link: function(scope, element, attrs, ngModelCtrl) {
    $(element).datepicker({
       dateFormat:'dd-mm-yyyy',
       language: 'pt-BR',
       pickTime: false,
       startDate: '01-11-2013',      // set a minimum date
       endDate: '01-11-2030'          // set a maximum date
      }).on('changeDate', function(e) {
        ngModelCtrl.$setViewValue(e.date.toLocaleDateString());
        scope.$apply();
      });
    }
  };
 });

Try modifying the line in the directive that attempts to resolve the element,

$(element).datepicker([...]

For

element.datepicker([...]

There is no need to attempt to resolve the element; Angularjs is already passing a direct reference, with a wrapper ready to be consumed.
