pickadate.js v3.0.0 Release Notes

  • 🚀 With this major release, the entire API has been rethought to allow the picker to be much more configurable and extensible. These are the most notable updates:

    • #20: Introduced a new time picker.
    • #112: Firefox select month/year fix.
    • #84: Scrollbar not hidden to avoid page shift.
    • 👍 #89: Better event handling on clicks/focuses/keydowns within the holder.
    • #98: Destroy picker data from element.
    • ➕ Added Grunt.js build system.
    • ➕ Added QUnit test suite.
    • ➕ Added Travis integration.
    • ⚡️ Updated themes to be LESS-based.
    • ✂ Removed “inline” and “inline-fixed” themes.
    • ✂ Removed jam.js bindings within package.json.
    • ✂ Removed official support for IE7. Still works but looks odd.

    To enable all this goodness, some backward-incompatible changes have been introduced. These are the main ones:

    • #85: Months have zero-as-index:

      Just as in JavaScript’s native Date object, the month used to create dates is now based on zero as the first index. Meaning:

      [2013,0,1] → January 01, 2013
[2013,11,1] → December 01, 2013

    • API revised:

      isOpen → get('open')
getDate → get('select')
getDateLimit → get('min') or get('max')
setDate → set('select', …)
setDateLimit → set('min', …) or set('max', …)
show → set('view', …)

    • Options revised:

      showMonthsFull → showMonthsShort
showWeekdaysShort → showWeekdaysFull
yearSelector → selectYears
monthSelector → selectMonths
dateMin → min
dateMax → max
datesDisabled → disable
onSelect → onSet

    • 🚚 Options removed:

      monthPrev
monthNext

      To add labels for the month navigation tabs, use CSS pseudo-elements instead.

    • A few HTML classes name and property changes.

    • Formatting rules that appear within a word need to be escaped with an exclamation mark (!).

    👀 Please do read the docs and api to see exactly how these new options and methods work.
