How to set up

[black-snow]

The usage section seems to be outdated. How do I correctly set this thing up?

Adding //= require active_admin_datetimepicker to active_admin.js yields

Sprockets::FileNotFound
couldn't find file 'active_admin_datetimepicker' with type 'application/javascript'

Adding @import "active_admin_datetimepicker"; to active_admin.scss yields

Sass::SyntaxError
File to import not found or unreadable: active_admin_datetimepicker.

ruby 2.2.6, rails 4.2.9, aa 1.1.0

Found config.register_javascript 'active_admin_datetimepicker.js' in the issues - not mentioned in the README.

Thx for the bug-request. need to investigate this.

[workgena]

The #36 should fix this problem.

[black-snow]

Is there a release for that fix already?

[Fivell]

@black-snow please try master branch, waiting for your feedback

[mikkotan]

@Fivell Do we need to install XDSoft DateTime Picker gem?
Cannot make filter created_at, as: :date_time_range to work.
Or do we need require jquery for this

[workgena]

No other requirements, it should just work

@michaelunltd check this demo fork(branch dp_demo; git clone; bundle install; rake db:setup; rails s)

@workgena I'm trying to implement this in an existing project Rails 5.0.0 with activeadmin version 1.0.0.pre4, the default datepicker is not working for me as well as this plugin. Any issues regarding jquery-rails in this specific version? Do you think this is activeadmin related issue?

Current Gem Versions:
activeadmin 1.0.0.pre4
jquery-rails 4.1.1

Having somewhat of the same problem with Rails 5; thinking it might be the way datetimepicker inits itself -- I'm not using turbolinks in my own site and I don't think the "on('page:load turbolinks:load', " isn't working.

[black-snow]

I feel like we're mixing different things up here.
I'm still on rails 4.x. IMHO 5.x issues should be in a separate issue.

When I opened this issue I wasn't sure whether this was a bug or just a configuration issue. Actually I'm still not quite sure. What I found in the readme didn't suffice and there were additional instructions hidden in other's issues. Sadly, nothing helped.
In the meantime I chose to use plain html5 pickers.

However, I'm willing to test fixes if you give me instructions on how to set this plugin up correctly :)

[Fivell]

@michaelunltd I think you should update from .pre version to stable one

[Fivell]

@black-snow so this #35 (comment) is not working for you ?

[black-snow]

@Fivell I fear that I won't have time to get back to this anytime soon. Leaving this open for others having the same/similar issues.

@Fivell I see you updated the javascript here:

https://github.com/activeadmin-plugins/active_admin_datetimepicker/blob/master/app/assets/javascripts/active_admin_datetimepicker.js.coffee

where you're checking document.ready or calling turbolinks. I'm up to 0.5.0 of active_admin_datatimepicker and yet my javascript is the older one:

#= require jquery.xdan.datetimepicker.full

@setupDateTimePicker = (container) ->
  defaults = {
    formatDate: 'y-m-d',
    format: 'Y-m-d H:i',
    allowBlank: true,
    defaultSelect: false,
    validateOnBlur: false
  }

  entries = $(container).find('input.date-time-picker')
  entries.each (index, entry) ->
    options = $(entry).data 'datepicker-options'
    $(entry).datetimepicker $.extend(defaults, options)

$(document).on 'ready turbolinks:load', ->
  setupDateTimePicker $('body')
  $(document).on 'has_many_add:after', '.has_many_container', (e, fieldset) ->
    setupDateTimePicker fieldset

I've tried doing pristine, deleting and reinstalling etc and it seems I still have the older javascript:

(```
function() {
this.setupDateTimePicker = function(container) {
var defaults, entries;
defaults = {
formatDate: 'y-m-d',
format: 'Y-m-d H:i',
allowBlank: true,
defaultSelect: false,
validateOnBlur: false
};
entries = $(container).find('input.date-time-picker');
return entries.each(function(index, entry) {
var options;
options = $(entry).data('datepicker-options');
return $(entry).datetimepicker($.extend(defaults, options));
});
};

$(document).on('ready turbolinks:load', function() {
setupDateTimePicker($('body'));
return $(document).on('has_many_add:after', '.has_many_container', function(e, fieldset) {
return setupDateTimePicker(fieldset);
});
});

}).call(this);

Would love to get the datatimepicker reasonable again.
