yii2-widget-datepicker

The DatePicker widget is a Yii 2 wrapper for the Bootstrap DatePicker plugin with various enhancements. The plugin is a fork of Stefan Petre's DatePicker (of eyecon.ro), with improvements by @eternicode. The widget is specially styled for Bootstrap 3 and Bootstrap 4 for Yii 2 Framework. The widget allows graceful degradation to a normal HTML text input, if the browser does not support JQuery. The widget supports these markups:

Simple Input Markup
Component Markup - Addon Prepended
Component Markup - Addon Appended
Inline / Embedded Markup
Date Range Markup (from and to dates)
Solo Button Markup

NOTE: This extension is a sub repo split of yii2-widgets. The split has been done since 08-Nov-2014 to allow developers to install this specific widget in isolation if needed. One can also use the extension the previous way with the whole suite of yii2-widgets.
