The Date Control module allows controlling date formats of attributes separately for View and Model for Yii Framework 2.0. It allows you to set a separate format for saving datesto database and a separate format for display to users in your forms. It includes support out of the box for the enhanced DatePicker, DateTimePicker, and TimePicker widgets from yii2-widgets. In addition, you could configure any other date picker widget to be used with this module.With release 1.2.0, this module has various enhancements. It includes a separate DateFormatter library to manipulate dates in javascript using PHP DateTime formats.It does not require Intl extension for formatting nor the PHP 64 bit, and supports all date values (before 1970 and after 2037). It also includes preconfigured translations for most common languages (locales) and works well with kartikwidgetsDatePicker and kartikwidgetsDatePicker. This release tightens and enhances the DateControl integration with kartikwidgetsDatePicker, by allowing keyboard manipulation of dates.However, it is recommended to use the extension with ajaxConversion set to true if you need seamless integration with PHP DateTime functions like timezone support.

A control that the user can click or tap to specify a date.

Description

If you add a Date Picker control instead of a Text input control, you help ensure that the user specifies a date in the correct format.

Key properties

DefaultDate – The initial value of a date control unless the user changes it.

DateControl

SelectedDate – The date currently selected in a date control. This date is represented in local time.

Format – The text format in which the control shows the date and the user specifies the date. You can set this property to ShortDate (default) or LongDate to format dates based on the Language property of this control. You can also set this property to an expression, such as yyyy/mm/dd if you want the same format regardless of language. For example:

  • The control shows 12/31/2017 if the user clicks or taps the last day of 2017, the Format property is set to ShortDate, and the Language property is set to en-us.
  • The control shows dimanche 31 decembre 2017 if the user clicks or taps the last day of 2017, the Format property is set to LongDate, and the Language property is set to fr-fr.

Language – Determines the language that's used to format dates, including names of months. If this property isn't specified, the user's device setting determines the language. Supported values include 'EN-us' and 'FR'.
