# Project forked
This project is a fork of [bootstrap-datepicker project](https://github.com/eternicode/bootstrap-datepicker).
# Home
As 'bootstrap-datetimepicker' is restricted to the date scope (day, month, year), this project aims to support too the time picking (hour, minutes).
# Screenshots
## Decade year view
This view allows to select the day in the selected month.
## Year view
This view allows to select the mo
nth in the selected year.
## Mo
nth view
This view allows to select the year in a range of 10 years.
## Day view
This view allows to select the hour in the selected day.
## Hour view
This view allows to select the preset of minutes in the selected hour.
The range of 5 minutes (by default) has been selected to restrict buttons quantity to an acceptable value, but it can be overrided by the <code>minuteStep</code> property.
## Day view - meridian
Meridian is supported in both the day and hour views.
To use it, just enable the <code>showMeridian</code> property.
## Hour view - meridian

## Dependencies
Requires bootstrap's dropdown compo
nent (`dropdowns.less`) for some styles, and bootstrap's sprites (`sprites.less` and associated images) for arrows.
A standalone .css file (including necessary dropdown styles and alternative, text-b
ased arrows) can be generated by running `build/build_standalone.less` through the `lessc` compiler:
```bash
$ lessc build/build_standalone.less datetimepicker.css
```
## Options
All options that take a "Date" can handle a `Date` object; a String formatted according to the given `format`; or a timedelta relative to today, eg '-1d', '+6m +1y', etc, wher
e valid units are 'd' (day), 'w' (week), 'm' (month), and 'y' (year).
You can also specify an ISO-8601 valid datetime, despite of the given `format` :
