Is it possible to use HTML5 Data Attributes to initialize the Bootstrap 3 Datepicker?

Question

Answer 1

You can init datepicker options using data attributes, as you can see in the following example:

$('#datetimepicker1').datetimepicker();

You can use data-date-* to set an option or data-date-options setting an option object. The data-* initialization, in my opinion, it's poorly documented, anyway you can find some reference to it here.
