Date picker

A calendar day via the browser’s native type=date control.

Standalone

from almasix.orbit.forms import Form, DatePicker

form = Form.make("demo").schema([
        DatePicker.make("published_on")
            .label("Publish date")
            .required()
])

In a Resource

from almasix.orbit import Resource
from almasix.orbit.forms import Form, DatePicker

class PostResource(Resource):
    @classmethod
    def form(cls, form: Form) -> Form:
        return form.schema([
            DatePicker.make("starts_on").required(),
            DatePicker.make("ends_on")
                .visible(lambda record=None, **_: True),
        ])

Key methods

• Sets input_typetodate``
• .required() / .default("2026-09-17")
• .min_length / max rules via .rules(…) if needed
• .disabled(...) / .visible(...) / .live()

Closures work on .label(), .helper_text(), .placeholder(), .visible(), .disabled(), and .required() — see Form closures.
