- Example of the options data (not all properties listed):
myDatePickerOptions = {
todayBtnTxt: 'Today',
dateFormat: 'yyyy-mm-dd',
firstDayOfWeek: 'mo',
sunHighlight: true,
height: '34px',
width: '260px',
inline: false,
disableUntil: {year: 2016, month: 8, day: 10},

};
An ISO 639-1 language code can be provided as shorthand for several of the options listed above. Currently supported languages: en, fr, ja, fi, es, hu, sv, nl, ru, no, tr, pt-br, de, it, pl and my. If the locale attribute is used it overrides dayLabels, monthLabels, dateFormat, todayBtnTxt, firstDayOfWeek and sunHighlight properties from the options.
- new locale data can be added to this file. If you want to add a new locale create a pull request.
- locales can be tested here
Provide the initially chosen date that will display both in the text input field and provide the default for the popped-up selector.
Type of the selDate attribute can be a string or an IMyDate object.
- the string must be in the same format as the dateFormat option is. For example '2016-06-26'
- the object must be in the IMyDate format. For example: {year: 2016, month: 6, day: 26}
If selDate is not specified, when the datepicker is opened, it will ordinarily default to selecting the current date. If you would prefer a different year and month to be the default for a freshly chosen date picking operation, specify a [defaultMonth] attribute.
Value of the [defaultMonth] attribute is a string which contain year number and month number separated by delimiter. The delimiter can be any special character. For example the value of the [defaultMonth] attribute can be: 2016.08, 08-2016, 08/2016.
