KivyMD DatePicker save multiple dates

Question

I want that you can add and choose multiple dates. I tried to send a number with the button click button_nr but I don't know how I can pass it to the on_save function, so that I can change the self.ids.date_label(button_nr).text . If somebody has a better idea how to save multiple dates I'm open for suggestions. Thank you

def on_save(self, instance, value, date_range):
    date_value = datetime.datetime.strptime(str(value), "%Y-%m-%d")
    date_value_eu = date_value.strftime("%d.%m.%Y")
    self.ids.date_label1.text = str(date_value_eu)

def show_date_picker(self, button_nr):
    print(button_nr)
    date_dialog = MDDatePicker()
    date_dialog.bind(on_save=self.on_save, on_cancel=self.on_cancel)
    date_dialog.open()

The kv file part

MDRaisedButton:
        on_release: root.show_date_picker(1)

Answer 1

You can use my code, I have designed this app in order to have a recycleview plus a search bar, the recycle list item in this example is moved into the pick date function and it changes the text of the list item widget (check the picture), here is the code by jbsidis (I am posting this after I commented your question):

from kivymd.app import MDApp
from kivy.lang.builder import Builder
from kivy.core.window import Window
from kivy.uix.boxlayout import BoxLayout
from kivy.uix.floatlayout import FloatLayout
from kivymd.uix.list import OneLineIconListItem

from kivy.properties import (
    StringProperty,
    BooleanProperty,
    ObjectProperty,
    NumericProperty,
    ListProperty,
    OptionProperty,
)
Window.size = (330, 660)


kv = '''

This is one of many ways you can do things using kivy and kivymd, jbsidis, everything is possible with Python and Kivy, here is the image, greetings from El Salvador:
