What are bootstrap-daterangepicker's main functionalities?

Basic Date Range Picker

This feature allows you to add a basic date range picker to an input field. When the input field is clicked, a calendar view appears, allowing the user to select a start and end date.

import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css';
import 'bootstrap-daterangepicker/daterangepicker.css';
import $ from 'jquery';
import 'bootstrap-daterangepicker';

$(function() {
  $('input[name="daterange"]').daterangepicker();
});

Predefined Date Ranges

This feature allows you to define predefined date ranges that users can quickly select. This is useful for common date ranges like 'Last 7 Days' or 'This Month'.

import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css';
import 'bootstrap-daterangepicker/daterangepicker.css';
import $ from 'jquery';
import 'bootstrap-daterangepicker';

$(function() {
  $('input[name="daterange"]').daterangepicker({
    ranges: {
      'Today': [moment(), moment()],
      'Yesterday': [moment().subtract(1, 'days'), moment().subtract(1, 'days')],
      'Last 7 Days': [moment().subtract(6, 'days'), moment()],
      'Last 30 Days': [moment().subtract(29, 'days'), moment()],
      'This Month': [moment().startOf('month'), moment().endOf('month')],
      'Last Month': [moment().subtract(1, 'month').startOf('month'), moment().subtract(1, 'month').endOf('month')]
    }
  });
});

Single Date Picker

This feature allows you to configure the date range picker to select a single date instead of a range. This is useful for forms where only a single date is needed.

import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css';
import 'bootstrap-daterangepicker/daterangepicker.css';
import $ from 'jquery';
import 'bootstrap-daterangepicker';

$(function() {
  $('input[name="singleDate"]').daterangepicker({
    singleDatePicker: true,
    showDropdowns: true
  });
});

Date Range Picker for Bootstrap

This date range picker component for Bootstrap creates a dropdown menu from which a user can select a range of dates. I created it while building the UI for Improvely, which needed a way to select date ranges for reports.

Features include limiting the selectable date range, localizable strings and date formats, a single date picker mode, optional time picker (for e.g. making appointments or reservations), and styles that match the default Bootstrap 3 theme.
