DatePicker

Use Date Picker for date input.

Enter Date

Basic date picker measured by 'day'.

:::demo The measurement is determined by the type attribute. You can enable quick options by creating a picker-options object with shortcuts property. The disabled date is set by disabledDate, which is a function.

<template>
  <div class="block">
    <span class="demonstration">Default</span>
    <el-date-picker
      v-model="value1"
      type="date"
      placeholder="Pick a day">
    </el-date-picker>
  </div>
  <div class="block">
    <span class="demonstration">Picker with quick options</span>
    <el-date-picker
      v-model="value2"
      type="date"
      placeholder="Pick a day"
      :picker-options="pickerOptions1">
    </el-date-picker>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        pickerOptions1: {
          shortcuts: [{
            text: 'Today',
            onClick(picker) {
              picker.$emit('pick', new Date());
            }
          }, {
            text: 'Yesterday',
            onClick(picker) {
              const date = new Date();
              date.setTime(date.getTime() - 3600 * 1000 * 24);
              picker.$emit('pick', date);
            }
          }, {
            text: 'A week ago',
            onClick(picker) {
              const date = new Date();
              date.setTime(date.getTime() - 3600 * 1000 * 24 * 7);
              picker.$emit('pick', date);
            }
          }]
        },
        value1: '',

  </div>
  <div class="block">

    <el-date-picker
      v-model="value7"

              const end = new Date();
              const start = new Date();
              start.setTime(start.getTime() - 3600 * 1000 * 24 * 7);
              picker.$emit('pick', [start, end]);
            }
          }, {
            text: 'Last month',
            onClick(picker) {
              const end = new Date();
              const start = new Date();
              start.setTime(start.getTime() - 3600 * 1000 * 24 * 30);
              picker.$emit('pick', [start, end]);
            }
          }, {
            text: 'Last 3 months',
            onClick(picker) {
              const end = new Date();
              const start = new Date();
              start.setTime(start.getTime() - 3600 * 1000 * 24 * 90);
              picker.$emit('pick', [start, end]);
            }
          }]
        },
        value6: '',
        value7: ''
      };
    }
  };
</script>

Default Value

If user hasn't picked a date, shows today's calendar by default. You can use default-value to set another date. Its value should be parsable by new Date().

If type is daterange, default-value sets the left side calendar.

:::demo

<template>
  <div class="block">
    <span class="demonstration">date</span>
    <el-date-picker
      v-model="value8"
      type="date"
      placeholder="Pick a date"
      default-value="2010-10-01">
    </el-date-picker>
  </div>
  <div class="block">
    <span class="demonstration">daterange</span>
    <el-date-picker
      v-model="value9"
      type="daterange"
      start-placeholder="Start Date"
      end-placeholder="End Date"
      default-value="2010-10-01">
    </el-date-picker>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        value8: '',
        value9: ''
      };
    }
  };
</script>

:::

Formatted Value

By default, DatePicker emits Date object. You can use value-format to designate the format of emitted value, it accepts the same format string of format attribute.

:::warning This feature is at alpha stage. Feedback welcome. :::

:::demo

<template>
  <div class="block">
    <span class="demonstration">Emits Date object</span>
    <div class="demonstration">Value: {{ value10 }}</div>
    <el-date-picker
      v-model="value10"
      type="date"
      placeholder="Pick a Date"
      format="yyyy/MM/dd">
    </el-date-picker>
  </div>
  <div class="block">
    <span class="demonstration">Emits formatted date</span>
    <div class="demonstration">Value: {{ value11 }}</div>
    <el-date-picker
      v-model="value11"
      type="date"
      placeholder="Pick a Date"
      format="yyyy/MM/dd"
      value-format="yyyy-MM-dd">
    </el-date-picker>
  </div>
</template>

<script>
  export default {
    data() {
      return {
        value10: '',
