adjust date range of bootstrap datepicker dynamically

Question

I need help to adjust date range of date picker dynamically based on data-value selected on dropdown list. I've tried with code i written below but it just didnt work.

I use bootstrap, jquery, and bootstrap datepicker.

Here is my code

<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo base_url(); ?>plug/bootstrap.min.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo base_url(); ?>plug/bootstrap-datepicker3.min.css"/>
<script src="<?php echo base_url(); ?>plug/jquery-3.1.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="<?php echo base_url(); ?>plug/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="<?php echo base_url(); ?>plug/bootstrap-datepicker.min.js"></script>

<?php
$data[0] = array("id"=>"2", "name" => "Anton", "date_start" => "2016-10-04", "date_end" => "2016-10-14");
$data[1] = array("id"=>"4", "name" => "Boby", "date_start" => "2016-10-09", "date_end" => "2016-10-29");
$data[2] = array("id"=>"5", "name" => "Ciara", "date_start" => "2016-10-01", "date_end" => "2016-10-31");
$data[3] = array("id"=>"6", "name" => "Don", "date_start" => "2016-10-05", "date_end" => "2016-12-31");
$data[4] = array("id"=>"7", "name" => "Ester", "date_start" => "2016-10-01", "date_end" => "2016-12-31");
?>

Could you please modify your HTML little bit to form <option> like:

<option value='2' data-date_start="2016-10-04" data-date_end="2016-10-14">Anton</option>

Here date_start and date_end sits in two different attributes and hence easy to grab it:

 $(document).ready(function() { var start = null; var end = null; $('#date').change(function() { start = $(this).find(":selected").data("date_start"); end = $(this).find(":selected").data("date_end"); $('.input-group.date').datepicker("remove"); //clearing the previos options and again initiating datepicker initDatePicker(); }); function initDatePicker() { $('.input-group.date').datepicker({ format: "yyyy-mm-dd", startDate: new Date(start), endDate: new Date(end), autoclose: false }); } });
