Add datepicker with rails 3.2.11, simple_form and bootstrap

问题

I am trying to implement datepicker in my simple_form much as has been covered here: How do i write a cleaner date picker input for SimpleForm

I create the custom class:

# app/inputs/date_picker_input.rb
class DatePickerInput < SimpleForm::Inputs::StringInput
....
end

I then add: `$("input.date_picker").datepicker();

at the bottom of application.js and use the code:

<%= f.input :deadline, :as => :date_picker %>

However, a datepicker is not activated, nor is an error thrown. Could this be an issue with me not understanding the asset pipeline correctly? My application.js also contains: //= require jquery.ui.datepicker.min

I also use the datepicker on a separate page in my application that does not use simple_form, so datepicker by itself is working.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

回答1:

Make sure datepicker is called in your JavaScript (change datepicker class if it is different in your form):

$(function() {
  $('input.datepicker').datepicker();
});
