Change language to Bootstrap Datetimepicker


I'm using the datetimepicker of Bootstrap, it's working pretty well. The thing is that it's in english, and I need it in spanish, I had read some post but nothing works to me. my HTML is defined as:

<div class="form-group">
  <div class='input-group date datepicker' data-date-startdate="{{$student->middle}}" name="datepicker" >
    <input type='text' class="form-control placementT" id="fecha">
    <span class="input-group-addon">
      <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></span>
    </span>
  </div>
</div>

In the javascript, I have only one function related with the datetimepicker, this is:

$('.input-group.date').each(function() {
  $(this).datetimepicker().on('dp.hide',function (ev) {
    //something
  });
});

So, what should I add to change this to spanish?I had read that this is with locale.js but can I add the definition of days and months inside my javascript?


Solution

  • You need to add locale, reference can be found here

    For spanish locale: 'es'

    Script

    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.10.6/locale/es.js"></script>
    

    DateTimePicker in Spanish

    $(document).ready(function(){
    	$('.input-group.date').datetimepicker({
    		locale: 'es',
    	});
    });
