dynamically pass min date to jQuery datepicker from bootstrap datetimepicker

I am working on a project, Actually there are two datepickers in my page. One is bootstrap datepicker and another is jQuery datepicker. There are three date fields, one is for start event date and another is for end event. Third datepicker is used to select multiple dates. Now I want that first selected date should work as min date for third datepicker and second datepicker date should work as max date limit for third datepicker. I am not able to pass that values. May be problem arise because of two different datepicker i.e. one is jQuery datepicker and another is bootstrap datetimepicker. Please give me a solution if you have any idea.
// code of first datepicker
$('.form_start_datetime').datetimepicker({
//language: 'fr',
weekStart: 1,
todayBtn: 1,
autoclose: 1,
startDate: new Date(),
todayHighlight: 1,
startView: 2,
forceParse: 0,
showMeridian: 1
});
// code of second datepicker
$('.form_end_datetime').datetimepicker({
//language: 'fr',
weekStart: 1,
todayBtn: 1,
startDate: minDate,
autoclose: 1,
todayHighlight: 1,
startView: 2,
forceParse: 0,
showMeridian: 1
});
// code of multiple date select
jQuery(function () {
// var startTime = $('#start_date_time').val();
// var splitTime = startTime.split(" ");
if(jQuery("#multi-datepicker").length){
jQuery("#multi-datepicker").datepicker({
format :'yyyy-mm-dd',
minDate: new Date(2018, 1 - 1, 1),
onSelect: function (dateText, inst) {
addOrRemoveDate(dateText);
$(this).data('datepicker').inline = true;
$('#multi-datepicker').val(dates);
//console.log(splitTime[0]);
},
onClose: function() {
$(this).data('datepicker').inline = false;
},
beforeShowDay: function (date) {
var year = date.getFullYear();
// months and days are inserted into the array in the form, e.g "01/01/2009", but here the format is "1/1/2009"
var month = padNumber(date.getMonth() + 1);
var day = padNumber(date.getDate());
// This depends on the datepicker's date format
var dateString = month + "/" + day + "/" + year;
var gotDate = jQuery.inArray(dateString, dates);
if (gotDate >= 0) {
// Enable date so it can be deselected. Set style to be highlighted
return [true, "ui-state-highlight"];
}
// Dates not in the array are left enabled, but with no extra style
return [true, ""];
}
});
Thanks you in advance

In order to achieve the wanted result, you can set the minDate and maxDate of a datepicker inside the onSelect of another datepicker.
Exaple:
$('.form_start_datetime').datetimepicker({
//language: 'fr',
weekStart: 1,
todayBtn: 1,
autoclose: 1,
startDate: new Date(),
todayHighlight: 1,
startView: 2,
forceParse: 0,
showMeridian: 1,
onSelect: function() {
var minDate = $(this).datepicker('getDate'); //get the selected date
$("#multi-datepicker").datepicker( "option", "minDate", minDate); //sets min date for datepicker
}
});
$('.form_end_datetime').datetimepicker({
//language: 'fr',
weekStart: 1,
todayBtn: 1,
autoclose: 1,
startDate: new Date(),
todayHighlight: 1,
startView: 2,
forceParse: 0,
showMeridian: 1,
onSelect: function() {
var maxDate= $(this).datepicker('getDate'); //get the selected date
$("#multi-datepicker").datepicker( "option", "maxDate", maxDate); //sets max date for datepicker
}
});

bootstrap datepicker not retaining value on focusout

I am working on bootstrap datepicker.
function initializeDatePicker() {
$('#milestone_start_date').datepicker({
weekStart: 1,
startDate: '-1m',
endDate: '+13m',
autoclose: true,
format: 'yyyy-mm-dd'
}).on('changeDate', function (selected) {
var minDate = new Date(selected.date.valueOf());
$('#milestone_end_date').datepicker('setStartDate', minDate);
});
$('#milestone_end_date').datepicker({
weekStart: 1,
format: 'yyyy-mm-dd',
autoclose: true
}).on('changeDate', function (selected) {
var maxDate = new Date(selected.date.valueOf());
$('#milestone_start_date').datepicker('setEndDate', maxDate);
});
}
I called this function for multiple times to update input startDate, EndDate fields.
$('#milestone_end_date').datepicker('destroy');
$('#milestone_start_date').datepicker('destroy');
$('#milestone_start_date').val(data.start_date);
$('#milestone_end_date').val(data.end_date);
initializeDatePicker();
After AJAX call, correct values are displayed in start, EndDate popups. But if I clicked startDate field. And focusOut from the field. Value in startDate changes to today.
I am not sure what is wrong here.
Please help me. Thanks in advance.

Bootstrap Datepicker - Set startDate with multidate

I have a datepicker div with multi date and a few dates set with setDates.
$("#datepicker").datepicker({
multidate: true,
startDate: "08/01/2016",
endDate: "11/30/2016"
});
$("#datepicker").datepicker('setDates',["08/01/2016","09/10/2016","10/15/2016","11/30/2016"]);
The problem is that it shows the last date by default(11/30/2016). I want it showing the first date instead(08/01/2016). What should I do?
The JSFiddle is: https://jsfiddle.net/itzuki87/tdj2Lscr/4/

Just switch 1st date with last date:
$("#datepicker").datepicker({
multidate: true,
startDate: "08/01/2016",
endDate: "11/30/2016"
});
$("#datepicker").datepicker('setDates',["11/30/2016","09/10/2016","10/15/2016","08/01/2016"]);

Bootstrap datepicker today's date selected when calendar open first time

I am using this datepicker .
My issue is when I click on textbox on which datepicker is attached, it opens the calendar with today's date selected.
What I want is when a calendar opens first time it should not have any date selected until a user select a date.
Example:(Today's Date is 08/06/2014)
As in the second picture the calendar opens with today's date selected.
Below is my code for assigning datepicker to textbox
$("input[id*=txt_DateFrom]").datepicker({
beforeShowDay: function(date) {
if (pnlValue == 'none') {
return date.valueOf() >= now.valueOf();
}
},
daysOfWeekDisabled: [0, 6],
autoclose: true,
todayHighlight: false,
todayBtn: true
});

use set date function to set null date. try this its simple.
$("input[id*=txt_DateFrom]").datepicker("setDate" , null);

I found the solution
$("input[id*=txt_DateFrom]").datepicker({
beforeShowDay: function(date) {
if (pnlValue == 'none') {
return date.valueOf() >= now.valueOf();
}
},
daysOfWeekDisabled: [0, 6],
autoclose: true,
todayHighlight: false,
todayBtn: true
}).datepicker("setDate",null);
I Hope it might help someone..

Disable datepicking in form2 based on form1 selected date bootstrap-datetimepicker

I'm currently using this awesome bootstrap-datetimepicker from (http://www.malot.fr/bootstrap-datetimepicker/). How to disable date on form2 based on form1 selected date??
here is my current javascript for the datetimepicker
$('.bookingfrom').datetimepicker({
language: 'en',
weekStart: 1,
todayBtn: 1,
autoclose: 1,
todayHighlight: 1,
startView: 2,
minView: 2,
startDate: '+0d',
forceParse: 0
});
$('.bookinguntil').datetimepicker({
language: 'en',
weekStart: 1,
todayBtn: 1,
autoclose: 1,
todayHighlight: 1,
startView: 2,
minView: 2,
startDate: '+0d',
forceParse: 0
});
I found 1 function on the documentation that I think can do the work. I just dont know how.
$('#date-end')
.datetimepicker()
.on('changeDate', function(ev){
if (ev.date.valueOf() < date-start-display.valueOf()){
....
}
});

i've used it like this
//Set the date picker on the text boxes for Check Out Date
$(".checkOutDate").datetimepicker({
format: "dd M yyyy",
autoclose: true,
showMeridian: true,
startDate: minDateForCheckIn
}).on('changeDate', function (ev) {
//Parse the selected date string to date object.
var dateSelected = new Date(Date.parse(ev.date));
//Subtract 5 hours and 35 minutes (extra 5 minutes to prevent selection of same time in check in field) to adjust GMT timings.
dateSelected.setHours(dateSelected.getHours() +24, 0, 0, 0);
$(".checkInDate").datetimepicker('setEndDate', dateSelected);
});
//Set the date picker on the text boxes for Check In Date. [Once the check in date is selected, set the selected date as min date for check out]
$(".checkInDate").datetimepicker({
format: "dd M yyyy",
autoclose: true,
showMeridian: true,
startDate: minDateForCheckIn
}).on('changeDate', function (ev) {
//Parse the selected date string to date object.
var dateSelected = new Date(Date.parse(ev.date));
//Subtract 5 hours and 25 minutes (less 5 minutes to prevent selection of same time in check out field) to adjust GMT timings.
dateSelected.setHours(dateSelected.getHours() + 24, 0, 0, 0);
$(".checkOutDate").datetimepicker('setStartDate', dateSelected);
});

I am a bit late to the party, but this is definitely possible. I see you are also trying to disable dates before the current day. I've come up with the following solution that does exactly as asked:
First you need to initialise the minDate parameter to midnight of the current day. Then, you bind an event listener to the dp.change event and reject any times that are earlier than the current time.
When rejecting such a time, you notify the user and reset the DateTimePicker time to the current time. I've created a function to do this:
// Argument obj is the used DateTimePicker object
// Argument f is the selected datetime by the user
// Argument n is the current datetime
var checkDate = function (obj, f, n) {
if (f.getTime() < n.getTime()+60*1000 && !open) {
open = true;
$('#message').dialog({
modal: true,
position: ['center', 'center'],
show: 'blind',
hide: 'blind',
width: 400,
dialogClass: 'ui-dialog-osx',
buttons: {
"I understand. Let me try again": function () {
$(this).dialog("close");
obj.data('DateTimePicker').setDate(n);
open = false;
}
}
});
}
}
Likewise, you still want to update the minDate and maxDate parameters upon dp.change too. Therefore, combining both checking the time and updating the properties, you would get:
jQuery("#startDate").on("dp.change", function (e) {
var f = new Date(e.date); var n = new Date();
checkDate(jQuery('#startDate'), f, n);
jQuery('#endDate').data("DateTimePicker").setMinDate(e.date);
});
jQuery("#endDate").on("dp.change", function (e) {
var f = new Date(e.date); var n = new Date();
checkDate(jQuery('#startDate'), f, n);
jQuery('#startDate').data("DateTimePicker").setMaxDate(e.date);
});
This will yield exactly what you are after:
