How to set DateType range from selected date to current date?

I want to create for that lets select year and month. Current solution doesn't work, I cuts all months to 7, as current month at this time of post is "7".

 $builder->add(
        'filter_date',
        DateType::class,
        [
            'format' => 'yMd',
            'years' => range(
                (new DateTime('2013-01-01'))->format('Y'),
                (new DateTime())->format('Y')
            ),
            'months' => range(
                (new DateTime('2013-01-01'))->format('m'),
                (new DateTime())->format('m')
            ),
            'days' => [1],
            'placeholder' => [
                'year' => '----',
                'month' => '----',
                'day' => false,
            ],
            'required' => true,
        ]
    )

How to make all years before to have 12 in month selection, and in current year, it won't be able to pick future months?

Solution

That is cause you are defining your interval for your month from january to the month of the current date with the awkward expression

range(
                (new DateTime('2013-01-01'))->format('m'),
                (new DateTime())->format('m')
            )

What about

'months' => range(1,12)

and simple for years if you want to go 5 years back

'years' => range(date("Y")-5, date("Y"))

or if you want 2013 as fixed start

'years' => range(2013, date("Y"))

The rendering of the input values is happened on the server side, so you are not able to dynamically add/remove values from the input. If you still want to use separated input values for choosing a date you have to write JS code your own to replace values dynamically.

If you agree with a datepicker, you could use the following approach.

'widget' => 'single_text',
'attr' => array(
        'max' => date('Y-m-d')
    )
