Clear the value of bootstrap-datepicker

Question

I am using bootstrap-datepicker from here: https://github.com/eternicode/bootstrap-datepicker

version: 2.3.2

I am having trouble to clear the date values of the datepicker when a button is clicked. I have checked the API but cannot find anything on clearing/resetting the datepicker. Any help is welcome

You can use jQuery to clear the value of your date input.

For exemple with a button and a text input like this :

<input type="text" id="datepicker">
<button id="reset-date">Reset</button>

You can use the .val() function of jQuery.

$("#reset-date").click(function(){
    $('#datepicker').val("").datepicker("update");
})
