DateTimepicker

Bootstrap 5 DateTimepicker

DateTimepicker is a form that adds the function of selecting date and time without the necessity of using custom JavaScript code.

Note: Read the API tab to find all available options and advanced customization

Required ES init: Datetimepicker *
* UMD autoinits are enabled by default. This means that you don't need to initialize the component manually. However if you are using MDBootstrap ES format then you should pass the required components to the initMDB method.

Basic example

Input with a modal for selecting a date and time.

        
            
          <div class="form-outline" data-mdb-datetimepicker-init data-mdb-input-init>
            <input type="text" class="form-control" value="22/12/2020, 11:12 PM" id="datetimepickerExample" />
            <label for="datetimepickerExample" class="form-label">Select Date and Time</label>
          </div>
        
        
    
        
            
          // Initialization for ES Users
          import { Datetimepicker, Input, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
          
          initMDB({ Datetimepicker, Input });
        
        
    

Inline version

You can use inline version with option data-mdb-inline.

        
            
        <div class="form-outline" data-mdb-datetimepicker-init data-mdb-input-init data-mdb-inline="true" >
          <input type="text" class="form-control" id="datetimepickerInline" />
          <label for="datetimepickerInline" class="form-label">Select Date and Time</label>
        </div>
      
        
    
        
            
        // Initialization for ES Users
        import { Datetimepicker, Input, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
          
        initMDB({ Datetimepicker, Input });
      
        
    

Disabled

Use data-mdb-disabled="true" attribute on DateTimepicker to give it a grayed out appearance and remove pointer events.

        
            
        <div class="form-outline" data-mdb-datetimepicker-init data-mdb-input-init data-mdb-disabled="true">
          <input type="text" class="form-control" id="datetimepickerDisabled" />
          <label for="datetimepickerDisabled" class="form-label">Select Date and Time</label>
        </div>
      
        
    
        
            
        // Initialization for ES Users
        import { Datetimepicker, Input, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
          
        initMDB({ Datetimepicker, Input });
      
        
    

Disable past

Utilize the data-mdb-disable-past attribute to prevent the selection of dates that have already occurred.

        
            
        <div class="form-outline" data-mdb-datetimepicker-init data-mdb-input-init data-mdb-disable-past="true">
          <input type="text" class="form-control" id="datetimepickerDisablePast" />
          <label for="datetimepickerDisablePast" class="form-label">Select Date and Time</label>
        </div>
      
        
    
        
            
        // Initialization for ES Users
        import { Datetimepicker, Input, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
          
        initMDB({ Datetimepicker, Input });
      
        
    

Disable future

Utilize the data-mdb-disable-future attribute to prevent the selection of future dates.

        
            
        <div class="form-outline" data-mdb-datetimepicker-init data-mdb-input-init data-mdb-disable-future="true">
          <input type="text" class="form-control" id="datetimepickerDisableFuture" />
          <label for="datetimepickerDisableFuture" class="form-label">Select Date and Time</label>
        </div>
      
        
    
        
            
        // Initialization for ES Users
        import { Datetimepicker, Input, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
          
        initMDB({ Datetimepicker, Input });
      
        
    

Default values

You can set default date and time with options defaultDate and defaultTime.

        
            
        <div class="form-outline" data-mdb-datetimepicker-init data-mdb-input-init data-mdb-default-date="22/01/2019" data-mdb-default-time="10:33 PM" >
          <input type="text" class="form-control" id="datetimepickerDefault" />
          <label for="datetimepickerDefault" class="form-label">Select Date and Time</label>
        </div>
      
        
    
        
            
        // Initialization for ES Users
        import { Datetimepicker, Input, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
          
        initMDB({ Datetimepicker, Input });
      
        
    

Invalid label

Add data-mdb-ivalid-label with specified value, to change the invalid label message.

        
            
        <div class="form-outline" data-mdb-datetimepicker-init data-mdb-input-init data-mdb-invalid-label="Correct your input" >
          <input type="text" class="form-control" id="datetimepickerLabel" />
          <label for="datetimepickerLabel" class="form-label">Select Date and Time</label>
        </div>
      
        
    
        
            
        // Initialization for ES Users
        import { Datetimepicker, Input, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
          
        initMDB({ Datetimepicker, Input });
      
        
    

Input toggle

Add data-mdb-toggle="datetimepicker" to the input element to enable toggling on input click. It is also possible to set toggleButton option to false to remove the toggle button.

        
            
          <div class="form-outline" data-mdb-datetimepicker-init data-mdb-input-init data-mdb-toggle-button="false">
            <input type="text" class="form-control" id="datetimepickerToggle" data-mdb-toggle="datetimepicker" />
            <label for="datetimepickerToggle" class="form-label">Select Date and Time</label>
          </div>
        
        
    
        
            
          // Initialization for ES Users
          import { Datetimepicker, Input, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
            
          initMDB({ Datetimepicker, Input });
        
        
    

Custom date and time options

Datepicker options

            <div class="form-outline" id="datetimepicker-dateOptions" data-mdb-input-init>
              <input type="text" class="form-control" id="datetimepickerdateOptions" />
              <label for="datetimepickerdateOptions" class="form-label">Select Date and Time</label>
            </div>
          
        
    
        
            
            // Initialization for ES Users
            import { Datetimepicker, Input, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
              
            initMDB({ Input });

            const pickerDateOptions = document.querySelector('#datetimepicker-dateOptions');
            new Datetimepicker(pickerDateOptions, { 
              datepicker: { format: 'dd-mm-yyyy'},
            });
          
        
    
        
            
            const pickerDateOptions = document.querySelector('#datetimepicker-dateOptions');
            new mdb.Datetimepicker(pickerDateOptions, { 
              datepicker: { format: 'dd-mm-yyyy'},

DateTimepicker - API


Import

Importing components depends on how your application works. If you intend to use the MDBootstrap ES format, you must first import the component and then initialize it with the initMDB method. If you are going to use the UMD format, just import the mdb-ui-kit package.

        
            
          import { Datetimepicker, initMDB } from "mdb-ui-kit";
          initMDB({ Datetimepicker });
        
        
    
        
            
          import "mdb-ui-kit"
        
        
    

Usage

Via data attributes

Using the Datetimepicker component doesn't require any additional JavaScript code - simply add data-mdb-datetimepicker-init attribute to .form-outline, and use other data attributes to set all options. For ES format, you must first import and call the initMDB method.

        
            
        <div class="form-outline" data-mdb-datetimepicker-init data-mdb-input-init>
          <input type="text" class="form-control" id="form1" />
          <label class="form-label" for="form1">Select a date and time</label>
        </div>
      
        
    

Via JavaScript

        
            
        const options = {
          datepicker: { format: 'dd-mm-yyyy' }
        };
        const myDatetimepicker = new Datetimepicker(document.getElementById('myDatetimepicker'), options);
      
        
    
        
            
        const options = {
          datepicker: { format: 'dd-mm-yyyy' }
        };
        const myDatetimepicker = new mdb.Datetimepicker(document.getElementById('myDatetimepicker'), options);
      
        
    

Options

Options can be passed via data attributes or JavaScript. For data attributes, append the option name to data-mdb-, as in data-mdb-container="body".
