# Date-Time Picker field

The Redux Date-Time Picker (DTP) extension is a new way to select dates and times for use in text fields. The DTP contains several modes based on how you'd like to display time and date data. Include all date-time info in one text box? No problem! Split the time into its own text box? No problem! Have need to set ranges for dates or times?
We've got you covered there too!

# Arguments

Name Type Default Description
type string datetime Value identifying the field type.
id string Unique ID identifying the field. Must be different from all other field IDs.
title string Displays title of the field.
subtitle string Subtitle display of the field, situated beneath the title.
desc string Description of the field, appearing beneath the field control.
class string Appends any number of classes to the field's class attribute.
compiler bool false Flag to run the compiler hook. More info
date-format str mm-dd-yy String to assign the format of the date output. For more info, please see 'Date Formatting' below.
time-format str h:mm TT z String to assign the format of the time output. For more info, please see 'Time Formatting' below.
required array Provide the parent, comparison operator, and value which affects the field's visibility. More info
date-picker string true Flag that sets the display or hiding of the date picker portion of the picker window.
time-picker bool true Flag that sets the display or hiding of the time picker portion of the picker window.
split bool false Flag to set whether the date and time will be separated into their own fields. See 'Split Mode' below.
separator string ' ' (two spaces) String that appears between the date and time when split more is false. Blanks or characters may be used.
control-type string slider string command determining the interface of the time picker. Choose between select slider.
placeholder string/array Text to display in the input when no value is present. See 'Placeholder Options' below.
num-of-months int The number of calendar months to display in the datepicker.
timezone-list array An array of timezones values used to populate the timezone select: array('value' => 'EST', 'label' => 'Eastern'). The value should be the offset number in minutes. So "-0400" which is the format "-hhmm", would equate to -240 minutes.
timezone int/string Default timezone to display in the timezone list. This is the offset in minutes. If null the browser's local timezone will be used. If your timezone is "-0400" you would use -240. For backwards compatibility you may pass "-0400", however the timezone is stored in minutes and more reliable.
hour-min int The minimum hour allowed for all dates.
hour-max int The maximum hour allowed for all dates.
minute-min int The minimum minute allowed for all dates.
minute-max int The maximum minute allowed for all dates.
date-min int/array Array of minimum month, day, year values. See 'Min/Max Date Options' below.
date-max int/array Array of maximum month, day, year values. See 'Min/Max Date Options' below.
hint array Array containing the content and optional title arguments for the hint tooltip. More info

# Placeholder Options

The placeholder argument, if used, must be set in accordance with the split argument. Consider the following field arguments.

# When split is set to true

'placeholder' => Array (
    'date' => 'Date',
    'time' => 'Time'
)

# When split is set to false

'placeholder' => 'Datetime'

# Min/Max Date Options

The date-min and date-max arguments accept either an integer value or the array value shown in the table below.
When setting the date-min and date-max arguments as integers, the date-min argument begins the selectable range with the number of days beginning at the current date. Setting it to 0 begins the selectable range at today's date, setting it to 1 begins on the day after the current date, and so on. The date-max argument as an integer sets the number of days in the actual range. Setting it to 30 would create a 30-day range.

Alternatively, setting the date-min and date-max ranges as an array of month, day, and year values allows you to select a date-specific range at any point in the calendar.

Name Type Default Description
month int The one or two digit integer expressing the month.
day int The one or two digit integer expressing the day.
year int The four digit integer expressing the year.
