Zentheme Pikadate
=================

[](#zentheme-pikadate)

This module provides a Wordpress customizer Control based on the [Pikaday Datepicker](https://github.com/dbushell/Pikaday) project. The module is available via `composer` so it can be added to a plugin or theme.

The Pikaday Datepicker has a pretty comprehensive range of config options, most of which are available to the Control, you can check them out on the [Pikaday Project](https://github.com/dbushell/Pikaday) page on Github.

#### Install with composer

[](#install-with-composer)

Download and install Composer by following the [official instructions](https://getcomposer.org/download/). For usage, see [the documentation](https://getcomposer.org/doc/).

Run the following in your terminal to install the module with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/).

```
$ composer require zentheme/wpikaday

```

As this project uses [PSR-4](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-4/) autoloading you will need to use Composers autoloader.

Using the Control
-----------------

[](#using-the-control)

Below is a simple example of how the control might be used in a plugin or theme. The example assumes that the `vendor/autoload.php` file has already been included.

```
use Zentheme\Customizer\Control\PikadayControl;

// Projects customizer configuration
add_action( 'customize_register', function( $wpCustomize ) {
    // Add a section...
    $wpCustomize->add_section( 'pikaday_section', [
        'title' => 'Pikaday Section'
    ] );

    // Then a setting...
    $wpCustomize->add_setting( 'pikaday_setting', [
        'default' => '',
        'transport' => 'postMessage'
    ] );

    // ...and finally add the Pikaday control
    $wpCustomize->add_control(
        new PikadayControl( $wpCustomize, 'pikaday_control', [
            'label' => 'Pikaday Calendar',
            'section' => 'pikaday_section',
            'settings' => 'pikaday_setting',
            'position' => 'bottom right',   // position the  datepicker
            'format' => 'MMMM Do YYYY'      // define the date format
            // ... add any other valid Pikaday params here
        ] )
    );
} );
```

###  Alternatives

[eluceo/ical

The eluceo/iCal package offers an abstraction layer for creating iCalendars. You can easily create iCal files by using PHP objects instead of typing your \*.ics file by hand. The output will follow RFC 5545 as best as possible.
