Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

or add

"yiisoft/yii2-jui": "~2.0.0"

to the require section of your composer.json file.

Usage

Fhe following single line of code in a view file would render a JQuery UI DatePicker widget:

<?= yii\jui\DatePicker::widget(['name' => 'attributeName']) ?>

Configuring the Jquery UI options should be done using the clientOptions attribute:

<?= yii\jui\DatePicker::widget(['name' => 'attributeName', 'clientOptions' => ['defaultDate' => '2014-01-01']]) ?>

If you want to use the JUI widget in an ActiveForm, it can be done like this:

<?= $form->field($model,'attributeName')->widget(DatePicker::className(),['clientOptions' => ['defaultDate' => '2014-01-01']]) ?>
