Feature Request: Months and Years only picker

[dev4press]

Check out datetime picker that offers method for picking only month or only year: http://t1m0n.name/air-datepicker/docs/#example-months.

It would be great to have something like that available in Flatpickr.

Hello,

To be honest, I don't find this a necessary, or even very usable to be worth the effort of implementing.
Also, a lot of clicking there, and no options of direct input.

A couple of selects would be much easier to use

+1 for this feature. May suggest the implementation of year range selection as well. For eg; Jan 2001 - Dec 2010

+1 Seems like a nice usability improvement in cases where you're working with months and selecting a day wouldn't make sense.

@chmln

We've just started using this at a bank, and choosing by month is something we do a lot.

It's a perfectly valid use case, especially when we only want to rely on a single configurable date-picker component.

Now that scrolling is removed, let's make this happen :)

That's great news! The team is stoked 😁

@chmln - of course, we're interested to track the progress of any work on this.

Is there an ETA, or some way for us to do this?

I'd be happy to work on this myself, though my knowledge of Flatpickr is minimal.

Just checking out the docs, it seems that in the first instance, the time picker JS and UI could be repurposed.

{
    enableTime: true,
    noCalendar: true,
    dateFormat: "H:i",
}

I might get one of our guys to look at this next week...

@chmln Is there a timeline for this or is it already implemented? I couldn't find any option or mention on documentation.

[chmln]

Hey all, I wish I could provide an ETA but I can't at the moment. It will be as soon as I can get some chunk of free time, within a month or two. Extremely busy at the moment in my final year at university.

If anyone wants to work on this - please go ahead, but keep it plugin-based as flatpickr core should not get any larger.

Thank you all for patience. :)

+1 for this user make the Month and Year Select/Dropdown for easy navigation, rather than clicking multiple times just to navigate
