cordova-plugin-datepicker

Date picker replacement for older android phones as kitkat and Samsung phones support this.

Heavily based on https://github.com/bikasv/cordova-android-plugins/tree/master/datepicker but updated to work with cordova 3.1.

Installation

cordova plugin install https://github.com/hx-markterry/cordova-plugin-datepicker.git

Usage

(In coffeescript)

Create an HTML5 date input:

<input type="date" min="2012-01-01" max="2017-01-01"/>

Assign an event:

"click :input[name='DateTo']"   : "_handleDate"

Code to run:

_handleDate: (e) ->
    currentField = e.currentTarget
    minVal = currentField.min || 0
    maxVal = currentField.max || 0

    #get current date from field if any
    currentDate = Date.parse(currentField.value) || new Date()
    if typeof currentDate == "number"
      currentDate = new Date currentDate
    dp = new NativeDatePicker()
    dp.show({
        date: currentDate
        mode: 'date'
        minDate: Date.parse minVal
        maxDate: Date.parse maxVal
    }, (returnDate) ->
      if returnDate != "" and returnDate != "OK"
        newDate = moment(returnDate).format 'YYYY-MM-DD'
        currentField.value = newDate
      currentField.blur()
    )
