Bootstrap datepicker hide after selection

Question

How do I hide the calendar after a date is selected? Is there a specific function that I can use? My code below:

$('#dp1').datepicker({
    format: 'mm-dd-yyyy',
    startDate: '-15d',
    autoclose: true,
    endDate: '+0d' // there's no convenient "right now" notation yet
});

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

You can use event changedate() to keep track of when the date is changed together with datepicker('hide') method to hide the datepicker after making selection:

$('yourpickerid').on('changeDate', function(ev){
    $(this).datepicker('hide');
});
