API

The DateTime component provides a comprehensive API that can be used to get and set values in controls that use the library, and also to provide manipulation options. Please see the list below for the full set of API methods that are available, and click through to get details of each one.

The DateTime API can be accessed through the object that is returned from its constructor:

let dt = new DataTable.DateTime('#myInput', {
    // ... options
});
