bootstrap-datepicker
====================

Bootstrap-datepicker provides a flexible datepicker widget in the Bootstrap style.

.. figure:: _static/screenshots/demo_head.png
    :align: center

Versions are incremented according to `semver <http://semver.org/>`_.

`Online Demo <https://eternicode.github.io/bootstrap-datepicker/>`_


Requirements
------------

* `Bootstrap`_ 2.0.4+
* `jQuery`_ 1.7.1+

.. _Bootstrap: https://getbootstrap.com/
.. _jQuery: https://jquery.com/

These are the specific versions bootstrap-datepicker is tested against (``js`` files) and built against (``css`` files).  Use other versions at your own risk.


Dependencies
------------

Requires bootstrap's dropdown component (``dropdowns.less``) for some styles, and bootstrap's sprites (``sprites.less`` and associated images) for arrows.

A standalone .css file (including necessary dropdown styles and alternative, text-based arrows) can be generated by running ``build/build_standalone.less`` through the ``lessc`` compiler::

    $ lessc build/build_standalone.less datepicker.css


Usage
-----

Call the datepicker via javascript::

    $('.datepicker').datepicker();


Data API
^^^^^^^^

As with bootstrap's own plugins, datepicker provides a data-api that can be used to instantiate datepickers without the need for custom javascript.  For most datepickers, simply set ``data-provide="datepicker"`` on the element you want to initialize, and it will be intialized lazily, in true bootstrap fashion.  For inline datepickers, use ``data-provide="datepicker-inline"``; these will be immediately initialized on page load, and cannot be lazily loaded.

.. code-block:: html

    <input data-provide="datepicker">

Markup with component

.. code-block:: html

    <div class="input-group date" data-provide="datepicker">
        <input type="text" class="form-control">
        <div class="input-group-addon">
            <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-th"></span>
        </div>
    </div>

You can disable datepicker's data-api in the same way as you would disable other bootstrap plugins::

    $(document).off('.datepicker.data-api');


Configuration
^^^^^^^^^^^^^

:doc:`options` are passed to the ``datepicker`` function via an options hash at instantiation::

    $('.datepicker').datepicker({
        format: 'mm/dd/yyyy',
        startDate: '-3d'
    });

Most options may be provided as data-attributes on the target element:

.. code-block:: html

    <input class="datepicker" data-date-format="mm/dd/yyyy">

::

    $('.datepicker').datepicker({
        startDate: '-3d'
    });

Defaults for all options can be modified directly by changing values in the ``$.fn.datepicker.defaults`` hash::

    $.fn.datepicker.defaults.format = "mm/dd/yyyy";
    $('.datepicker').datepicker({
        startDate: '-3d'
    });


Stylesheets
^^^^^^^^^^^

There are a few different stylesheets included in the library. This is an overview of what each file is to be used for:

:code:`bootstrap-datepicker.css` gives legacy support for twitter bootstrap v2, :code:`bootstrap-datepicker3.css` is used for twitter bootstrap v3 support
and :code:`bootstrap-datepicker.standalone.css` can be used to include the datepicker without depending on the twitter bootstrap library.

No Conflict mode
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

``$.fn.datepicker.noConflict`` provides a way to avoid conflict with other jQuery datepicker plugins::

    var datepicker = $.fn.datepicker.noConflict(); // return $.fn.datepicker to previously assigned value
    $.fn.bootstrapDP = datepicker;                 // give $().bootstrapDP the bootstrap-datepicker functionality
