How to set the minDate as a string?

[captainmorgan0]

I'm trying to set the minDate as a string in the HTML. I've tried: min-date="2016-08-10" But this doesn't work. Should it be a different format?

Browser support for parsing strings is inconsistent. Try with moment.

<input mdc-datetime-picker
min-date="minDate">

$scope.minDate = moment("2016-08-10");
