Library files

The lib folder includes the library files with a compressed folder containing the minified counter-parts. These files are minified using Grunt.

Pickers

There are three picker files:

• picker.js The core file (required before any other picker)
• picker.date.js The date picker
• picker.time.js The time picker

To support old browsers, namely IE8, also include the legacy.js file.

Themes

All themes are generated using LESS and compiled from the lib/themes-source folder into the lib/themes folder.

There are two themes:

• default.css The default modal-style theme
• classic.css The classic dropdown-style theme

Based on the theme, pick the relevant picker styles:

• default.date.css and default.time.css when using the default theme
• classic.date.css and classic.time.css when using the classic theme

** For languages with text flowing from right-to-left, also include the rtl.css stylesheet.

Translations

The translations live in the lib/translations folder. There are currently 40 language translations included.

Building with Grunt

Grunt ~0.4.5 is used to build the project files. To get started, clone the project and then run:

• npm install to get the required node modules.
• grunt test --verbose to confirm you have all the dependencies.

Type out grunt --help to see a list of all the tasks available. The generally used tasks are:

• grunt develop compiles the LESS files and watches for any source changes.
• grunt package minifies the compiled source files.
• grunt test tests the entire package.
• grunt build compiles, minifies, and tests the package.

Styling with LESS

The picker themes are built using LESS with Grunt. To customize the CSS output, read the _variables.less file in the lib/themes-source folder. You can specify:

• colors for the theme,
• sizes for the picker,
• media-query breakpoints,
• and a whole bunch of other stuff.

Make sure to run the grunt develop task before making any changes to compile it into CSS.

Versioning

To maintain consistency in the sort of changes to expect with version bumps, Semantic Versioning guidelines is followed as closely as possible:

<major>.<minor>.<patch>

Constructed as such:

• major: breaks backward compatibility (resets the minor and patch)
• minor: new additions with backward compatibility (resets the patch)
• patch: bug fixes and misc changes

If a version bump is due, make sure to update the version with a project-wide search and replace.
