django-bootstrap3-datetimepicker

This package uses Bootstrap v3 datetimepicker widget version 2 provided by the following project: https://github.com/Eonasdan/bootstrap-datetimepicker

The correct formatting options for dates can be found here: http://momentjs.com/docs/

It works only with Bootstrap3. If you are using Bootstrap2 in your Django project, visit https://github.com/zokis/django-bootstrap-datetimepicker

Install

  • Run pip install django-bootstrap3-datetimepicker
  • Add 'bootstrap3_datetime' to your INSTALLED_APPS

Example

forms.py
from bootstrap3_datetime.widgets import DateTimePicker
from django import forms

class ToDoForm(forms.Form):
    todo = forms.CharField(
        widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={"class": "form-control"}))
    date = forms.DateField(
        widget=DateTimePicker(options={"format": "YYYY-MM-DD",
                                       "pickTime": False}))
    reminder = forms.DateTimeField(
        required=False,
        widget=DateTimePicker(options={"format": "YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm",
                                       "pickSeconds": False}))

The options will be passed to the JavaScript datetimepicker instance. Available options are explained in the following documents:

You don't need to set the language option, because it will be set the current language of the thread automatically.
