PickMeUp - jQuery datepicker plugin

Really simple, powerful and customizable datepicker.

Author - Nazar Mokrynskyi

Based on DatePicker by Stefan Petre

Browser support:

  • IE 10+
  • Opera 12.1+
  • Latest versions of Firefox and Chrome

Getting started

You need only 2 files: js/jquery.pickmeup.min.js and css/pickmeup.min.css.

Then you can apply datepicker to any element:

$('.date').pickmeup();

Global default settings are stored in $.pickmeup

They can be redefined during initialization:

$('.date').pickmeup({
	format	: 'Y-m-d'
});

or with data-attributes with pmu- prefix:

<div class="date" data-pmu-format="Y-m-d"></div>

Twitter Bootstrap integration

For Twitter Bootstrap integration you do not need to include style file, but you need to include jquery.pickmeup.twitter-bootstrap.js instead, that will read settings of current Bootstrap theme and apply them to PickMeUp, so that it will look similar to native Bootstrap elements.

To apply integrated version, replace pickmeup with pickmeup_twitter_bootstrap in initialization:

$('.date').pickmeup_twitter_bootstrap();

All options and events are the same.

UIkit integration

For UIkit integration you do not need to include style file, but you need to include jquery.pickmeup.uikit.js instead, that will read settings of current UIkit theme and apply them to PickMeUp, so that it will look similar to native UIkit elements.

To apply integrated version, replace pickmeup with pickmeup_uikit in initialization:

$('.date').pickmeup_uikit();

All options and events are the same.

  • class_name: will be added to class of day element
change (formatted_date)

before_show ()

bool show ()

Triggered at showing, if not true returned - datepicker will not be shown

bool hide ()

Triggered at hiding, if not true returned - datepicker will not be hidden

fill()

$('.date').pickmeup('clear');
Update datepicker

$('.date').pickmeup('update');
Destroy datepicker

$('.date').pickmeup('destroy');

Other

Current options (for whatever reason) can be accessed as $('...').data('pickmeup-options').

Root pickmeup element (jQuery collection object) can be accessed as $('...').get(0).pickmeup or directly this.pickmeup if inside callback.

Styling

If you want other colors - just change several variables in scss file.

To change size - adjust font-size for root datepicker element, everything will scale nicely.
