svelte-calendar

A fork of svelte-calendar, as the origin project seemed pretty inactive (basically dead).

A small date picker built with Svelte 3. Demo available here: demo page.

Installation

npm i -D svelte-calendar

Basic usage

<script>
  import Datepicker from 'svelte-calendar';
</script>

<Datepicker start={minDate} end={maxDate} />

Props

start and end

These properties set the minimum and maximum dates that will be rendered by this calendar. It is recommended that you do not leave these as their defaults and supply values which suit your application's needs.

selected and formattedSelected

Bind to these properties to observe the selected date as either a date or a string. Use selected to set the day which is selected by default.

dateChosen

Bind to this property to observe whether a user has selected a day.

selectableCallback

Provide a function which accepts a date and returns a boolean determining whether a day between start and end is selectable. For example, use this to prevent weekend days from being selected.

format

Date formatting uses timeUtils formatting (MM/DD/YYYY by default). If you would like to use a different formatting library, supply a function which accepts a date and returns a string.

daysOfWeek and monthsOfYear

These two props are used to internationalize the calendar. The default values are:

export let daysOfWeek = [
  ['Sunday', 'Sun'],
  ['Monday', 'Mon'],
  ['Tuesday', 'Tue'],
  ['Wednesday', 'Wed'],
  ['Thursday', 'Thu'],
  ['Friday', 'Fri'],
  ['Saturday', 'Sat']
];

export let monthsOfYear = [
  ['January', 'Jan'],
  ['February', 'Feb'],
  ['March', 'Mar'],
  ['April', 'Apr'],
  ['May', 'May'],
  ['June', 'Jun'],
  ['July', 'Jul'],
  ['August', 'Aug'],
  ['September', 'Sep'],
  ['October', 'Oct'],
  ['November', 'Nov'],
  ['December', 'Dec']
];

style

This prop allows you to style the div which wraps the Datepicker component. This can be useful, for instance, if you'd like to do something like make the component full-width or display: block; (by default the element is inline-block). If you would like to style the button that triggers the opening of the datepicker we recommend you pass a custom element (button/link/etc) to the component via its default slot.

Kitchen Sink Example:

<script>
  const daysOfWeek = [
    [ 'Domingo', 'Dom' ],
    [ 'Lunes', 'Lun' ],
    [ 'Martes', 'Mar' ],
    [ 'Miércoles', 'Mié' ],
    [ 'Jueves', 'Jue' ],
    [ 'Viernes', 'Vie' ],
    [ 'Sábado', 'Sáb' ],
  ];
  const monthsOfYear = [
    [ 'Enero', 'Ene' ],
    [ 'Febrero', 'Feb' ],
    [ 'Marzo', 'Mar' ],
    [ 'Abril', 'Abr' ],
    [ 'Mayo', 'May' ],
    [ 'Junio', 'Jun' ],
    [ 'Julio', 'Jul' ],
    [ 'Agosto', 'Ago' ],
    [ 'Septiembre', 'Sep' ],
    [ 'Octubre', 'Oct' ],
    [ 'Noviembre', 'Nov' ],
    [ 'Diciembre', 'Dic' ],
  ];
</script>

<Datepicker
  bind:formattedSelected={selectedDateFormatted}
  bind:selected={selectedDate}
  bind:dateChosen={userHasChosenDate}
  start={threeDaysInPast}
  end={inThirtyDays}
  selectableCallback={filterWeekends}
  daysOfWeek={daysOfWeek}
  monthsOfYear={monthsOfYear}
  format={date => dayjs(date).format('DD/MM/YYYY')}
/>

Developing/Modifying Svelte-Calendar Guide

Getting started is as easy as forking, installing, and starting the snowpack dev server.

git clone https://github.com/Phaqui/svelte-calendar.git
cd svelte-calendar
npm install
npm run dev

(Note that installing dependencies, as well as the first start may take some time, as well as loading the page may take some time.)

Head to localhost:8000 in your browser. It should open automatically. You should see the demo page running. Edit a component file in src, save it, and your browser will reload the page so you can see your changes automatically.

Contributing

Do feel free to apply your patches, suggestions and PRs to the upstream as well as this fork. However, don't be surprised if upstream doesn't react. After all, the only reason this fork exists, is to try to resurrect this project. If at some time the upstream comes back alive, I'd be happy to help merge any changes back.
