Deprecation notice: the date widget has been deprecated and will be removed in the next major release. Please use the datetime widget instead.

The date widget translates a date picker input to a date string. For saving date and time together, use the datetime widget.

• Name: date
• UI: date picker
• Data type: Moment.js-formatted date string
• Options:
  • default: accepts a date string, or an empty string to accept blank input; otherwise defaults to current date
  • format: optional; accepts Moment.js tokens; defaults to raw Date object (if supported by output format)
  • date_format: optional; boolean or Moment.js tokens. If true use default locale format.
  • time_format: optional; boolean or Moment.js tokens. If true use default locale format, false hides time-picker. Defaults to false.
• Example: ```yaml
  • label: ‘Birthdate’ name: ‘birthdate’ widget: ‘date’ default: ‘’ format: ‘MMM Do YY’ ```
