With https://github.com/dangrossman/bootstrap-daterangepicker you can do date range search with:

= search_form_for q, url: orders_path, builder: SimpleForm::FormBuilder do |f|
  = f.input :daterange , input_html: {value: "#{q.date_gteq.to_s} - #{q.date_lteq.to_s}"}
  = f.input :date_gteq, as: :hidden
  = f.input :date_lteq, as: :hidden

:coffee
  $ ->
    $('#q_daterange').daterangepicker
      format: "YYYY-MM-DD"
      startDate: $('#q_date_gteq').val()
      endDate: $('#q_date_lteq').val()
      ranges:
        'This Week': [moment().startOf('week'), moment().endOf('week')],
        'Next Week': [moment().add('week', 1).startOf('week'), moment().add('week', 1).endOf('week')]
    , (start, end, label) ->
      $('#q_date_gteq').val start.format("YYYY-MM-DD")
      $('#q_date_lteq').val end.format("YYYY-MM-DD")
    .on 'apply.daterangepicker', -> $('#order_search').submit()
