class Formtastic::Inputs::DatetimePickerInput
Outputs a simple `<label>` with a HTML5 `<input type=“datetime-local”>` (or `<input type=“datetime”>`) wrapped in the standard `<li>` wrapper. This is an alternative to `:date_select` for `:date`, `:time`, `:datetime` database columns. You can use this input with `:as => :datetime_picker`.
*Please note:* Formtastic
only provides suitable markup for a date picker, but does not supply any additional CSS or Javascript to render calendar-style date pickers. Browsers that support this input type (such as Mobile Webkit and Opera on the desktop) will render a native widget. Browsers that don't will default to a plain text field`<input type=“text”>` and can be poly-filled with some Javascript and a UI library of your choice.
@example Full form context and output
<%= semantic_form_for(@post) do |f| %> <%= f.inputs do %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker %> <% end %> <% end %> <form...> <fieldset> <ol> <li class="string"> <label for="post_publish_at">First name</label> <input type="date" id="post_publish_at" name="post[publish_at]"> </li> </ol> </fieldset> </form>
@example Setting the size (defaults to 16 for YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM)
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :size => 20 %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :input_html => { :size => 20 } %>
@example Setting the maxlength (defaults to 16 for YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM)
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :maxlength => 20 %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :input_html => { :maxlength => 20 } %>
@example Setting the value (defaults to YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM for Date and Time objects, otherwise renders string)
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :input_html => { :value => "1970-01-01 00:00" } %>
@example Setting the step attribute (defaults to 1)
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :step => 60 %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :input_html => { :step => 60 } %>
@example Setting the step attribute with a macro
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :step => :second %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :step => :minute %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :step => :quarter_hour %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :step => :fifteen_minutes %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :step => :half_hour %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :step => :thirty_minutes %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :step => :hour %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :step => :sixty_minutes %>
@example Setting the min attribute
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :min => "2012-01-01 09:00" %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :input_html => { :min => "2012-01-01 09:00" } %>
@example Setting the max attribute
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :max => "2012-12-31 16:00" %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :input_html => { :max => "2012-12-31 16:00" } %>
@example Setting the placeholder attribute
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :placeholder => "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM" %> <%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :input_html => { :placeholder => "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM" } %>
@example Using `type=datetime-local` with `:local` option (this is the default, and recommended for browser support on iOS7 and Chrome)
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :local => true %>
@example Using `type=datetime` with `:local` option (not recommended)
<%= f.input :publish_at, :as => :datetime_picker, :local => false %>
