#HOF-Component-Date

A component for handling the rendering and processing of 3-input date fields used in HOF Applications.

##Usage

In your fields config:

const dateComponent = require('hof-component-date');

module.exports = {
  'date-field': dateComponent('date-field', {
    validate: ['required', 'before']
  })
}

The above example will create a new date component with the key 'date-field' and will apply the validators required and before (before today).

##Configuration

The following optional configuration options are supported:

• validate {String|Array} - validators to use on the processed date field
• template - an absolute path to an alternate template.
• dayOptional {Boolean} - day defaults to 01 if omitted. Defaults to false
• monthOptional {Boolean} - month defaults to 01 if omitted. If true then also forces dayOptional to be true. Defaults to false

##Labels

The three intermedate fields have fallback labels of Day, Month and Year, however custom labels can be used by including the translation at the following path:

fields.json

{
  "field-name": {
    "parts": {
      "day": {
        "label": "Custom Day Label"
      },
      "month": {
        "label": "Custom Month Label"
      },
      "year": {
        "label": "Custom Year Label"
      }
    }
  }
}
