Expands a datetime element type into date and/or time elements.

All form elements are designed to have sane defaults so any or all can be omitted. Both the date and time components are configurable so they can be output as HTML5 datetime elements or not, as desired.

Examples of possible configurations include: HTML5 date and time: #date_date_element = 'date'; #date_time_element = 'time'; HTML5 datetime: #date_date_element = 'datetime'; #date_time_element = 'none'; HTML5 time only: #date_date_element = 'none'; #date_time_element = 'time' Non-HTML5: #date_date_element = 'text'; #date_time_element = 'text';

Required settings:

  • #default_value: A DrupalDateTime object, adjusted to the proper local timezone. Converting a date stored in the database from UTC to the local zone and converting it back to UTC before storing it is not handled here. This element accepts a date as the default value, and then converts the user input strings back into a new date object on submission. No timezone adjustment is performed.

Optional properties include:

  • #date_date_format: A date format string that describes the format that should be displayed to the end user for the date. When using HTML5 elements the format MUST use the appropriate HTML5 format for that element, no other format will work. See the DateFormatterInterface::format() function for a list of the possible formats and HTML5 standards for the HTML5 requirements. Defaults to the right HTML5 format for the chosen element if an HTML5 element is used, otherwise defaults to DateFormat::load('html_date')->getPattern().
  • #date_date_element: The date element. Options are:
    • datetime: Use the HTML5 datetime element type.
    • datetime-local: Use the HTML5 datetime-local element type.
    • date: Use the HTML5 date element type.
    • text: No HTML5 element, use a normal text field.
    • none: Do not display a date element.
  • #date_date_callbacks: Array of optional callbacks for the date element.
  • #date_time_element: The time element. Options are:
    • time: Use an HTML5 time element type.
    • text: No HTML5 element, use a normal text field.
    • none: Do not display a time element.
  • #date_time_format: A date format string that describes the format that should be displayed to the end user for the time. When using HTML5 elements the format MUST use the appropriate HTML5 format for that element, no other format will work. See the DateFormatterInterface::format() function for a list of the possible formats and HTML5 standards for the HTML5 requirements. Defaults to the right HTML5 format for the chosen element if an HTML5 element is used, otherwise defaults to DateFormat::load('html_time')->getPattern().
  • #date_time_callbacks: An array of optional callbacks for the time element. Can be used to add a jQuery timepicker or an 'All day' checkbox.
  • #date_year_range: A description of the range of years to allow, like '1900:2050', '-3:+3' or '2000:+3', where the first value describes the earliest year and the second the latest year in the range. A year in either position means that specific year. A +/- value describes a dynamic value that is that many years earlier or later than the current year at the time the form is displayed. Used in HTML5 min/max date settings. Defaults to '1900:2050'.
  • #date_increment: The interval (step) to use when incrementing or decrementing time, in seconds. For example, if this value is set to 30, time increases (or decreases) in steps of 30 seconds (00:00:00, 00:00:30, 00:01:00, and so on.) If this value is a multiple of 60, the "seconds"-component will not be shown in the input. Used for HTML5 step values. Defaults to 1 to show every second.
  • #date_timezone: The Time Zone Identifier (TZID) to use when displaying or interpreting dates, i.e: 'Asia/Kolkata'. Defaults to the value returned by date_default_timezone_get().

Example usage:

$form = array(
    '#type' => 'datetime',
    '#default_value' => new DrupalDateTime('2000-01-01 00:00:00'),
    '#date_date_element' => 'date',
    '#date_time_element' => 'none',
    '#date_year_range' => '2010:+3',
    '#date_timezone' => 'Asia/Kolkata',
);

Parameters

array $element: The form element whose value is being processed.

\Drupal\Core\Form\FormStateInterface $form_state: The current state of the form.

array $complete_form: The complete form structure.

Return value

array The form element whose value has been processed.
