## Events

| Event     | Output | Description          |
| --------- | ------ | -------------------- |
| onOpen    |        | datepicker opened    |
| onClose   |        | datepicker closed    |
| onChange  |        | datepicker changed   |
| onDestroy |        | datepicker destroyed |

## Date Formatting

You can use this with `format` props.

Example :

```html
<VueDatePicker v-model="currentDate" format="YYYY-MM-DD" />
```

| Format | Output           | Description                       |
| ------ | ---------------- | --------------------------------- |
| `YY`   | 18               | Two-digit year                    |

| `DD`   | 01-31            | Day of month, 2-digits            |
| `H`    | 0-23             | Hours                             |

| `h`    | 1-12             | Hours, 12-hour clock              |
| `hh`   | 01-12            | Hours, 12-hour clock, 2-digits    |
| `m`    | 0-59             | Minutes                           |

| `SS`   | 00-99            | Tens of milliseconds, 2-digits    |
| `SSS`  | 000-999          | Milliseconds, 3-digits            |

## Translations

By default, locale will be set from your navigator language.
But it's possible to set it from `locale` props.
Actually, there are some locale inside project ('en', 'fr, 'es', 'de');

exemple:

```html
<template>
    <VueDatePicker :value="date" :locale="locale"></VueDatePicker>
</template>
```

```javascript
<script>
export default {
  // ...
  components: {
    VueDatePicker
  },
  data: () => ({
      date: new Date([2019, 5, 16]),
      locale: {
        lang: 'fr' // or 'en', 'es', 'de',
        weekDays: ['L', 'M', 'M', 'J', 'V', 'S', 'D'], // you can surcharge weekDays too
      },
  }),,
  // ...
}
</script>
```

:rocket: **Now, you can use your own language object**

Below, an exemple for `it` language :
You should have those properties to make it works :

```javascript
'name', 'weekdays', 'weekdaysShort', 'weekdaysMin', 'weekStart', 'months', 'monthsShort', 'ordinal', 'formats', 'buttonCancel', 'buttonValidate', 'rangeHeaderText'
```

```html
<template>
    <VueDatePicker :value="date" :locale="locale"></VueDatePicker>
</template>
```

```javascript
<script>
const locale = {
  lang: {
    name: 'it',
    weekdays: 'domenica_lunedì_martedì_mercoledì_giovedì_venerdì_sabato'.split('_'),
    weekdaysShort: 'dom_lun_mar_mer_gio_ven_sab'.split('_'),
    weekStart: 1,
    months: 'gennaio_febbraio_marzo_aprile_maggio_giugno_luglio_agosto_settembre_ottobre_novembre_dicembre'.split('_'),
    monthsShort: 'gen_feb_mar_apr_mag_giu_lug_ago_set_ott_nov_dic'.split('_'),
    formats: {
      LT: 'HH:mm',
      LTS: 'HH:mm:ss',
      L: 'DD/MM/YYYY',
      LL: 'D MMMM YYYY',
      LLL: 'D MMMM YYYY HH:mm',
      LLLL: 'dddd D MMMM YYYY HH:mm',
    },
    ordinal: n => `${n}º`,
    buttonCancel: 'Annulla',
    buttonValidate: 'Ok',
    rangeHeaderText: 'Dalle %d Alle 13',
  },
};

export default {
  // ...
  components: {
    VueDatePicker
  },
  data: () => ({
    date: new Date([2019, 5, 16]),
    locale,
  }),
  // ...
};
</script>
```

## Best Practices

When should you use `attach` prop :

### Attach

is great when you have a fixed element in your page like a panel, a dialog or a fixed fullscreen container.
The datepicker position will not take care of scroll page position and it'll be `absolutely positioned` into your fixed container. (if you scroll, datepicker popup will scroll too).
