Live demo (jsfiddle)

Installation

npm install --save @owumaro/vue-date-range-picker

Usage

Webpack

JavaScript

// Import the component
import DateRangePicker from '@owumaro/vue-date-range-picker'

export default {
  // Register the component
  components: { DateRangePicker },
  
  // Create a method for the submit event
  methods: {
    updateRanges: function(range) {
      ...
    }
  },
  ...
}

HTML template

<date-range-picker v-on:submit="updateRanges" />

API

Events

As the component needs to transmit multiple values (startDate, endDate, compare, startDateCompare, endDateCompare), it can not use v-model.

Instead, it triggers 2 events:

• submit: when the submit button is clicked; provides an Object argument with the 5 attributes mentioned above
• cancel: when the cancel button is clicked

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Description
calendar-count	Number	2	Number of calendars to display
allow-compare	Boolean	true	Enable/disable the comparison feature
ranges	Object	{ currentMonth: { ... }, lastMonth: { ... } }	Predefined ranges displayed in select menu(s)
default-range-select	String	currentMonth	Key of the range to select by default
default-range-select-compare	String	lastMonth	Key of the range to select by default (compare)
