Topic: How do I get the value of a datepicker?
How do I get the value of the datepicker and timepicker? I'm using Jquery and can't find int he documentation where it tells me about any methods. Again, I need the date (preferrable formated wtih format Submit) and the time from timepicker.
Hi,
To get the value of the datepicker you can listen to the change event and get the value of input inside the datepicker:
$('.datepicker').on('change', function() {
const value = $('#input').val())
})
I made a snippet with a full example for you: https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/jquery/marcin-luczak/2554327#js-tab-view

Thank you for the reply. I am aware of the change event. What I was hoping for was to be able to get it when I needed it (without having to store it on the change event) with something like:
$('.datepicker').datepicker("getDate")
additionally it would be great if I would ask it for the date in one of the formats specified. For example,
$('.datepicker').datepicker("getDate", "formatSubmit")

Unfortunately, Datepicker doesn't have that kind of functionality at the moment. We will consider adding those methods in future releases. Best regards, Marcin

That's disappointing. I'll have to "role my own" functionality then.
