Let's begin now.1) Create a new MVC web project and name it "MvcTimePicker".
2) Make changes to the "Views->Shared->_Layout.cshtml" file according to your business requirements.
3) Now, create a new "Models\TimerViewModel.cs" file and add relevant properties for this model i.e.
... /// <summary> /// Timer view model class. /// </summary> public class TimerViewModel { ... /// <summary> /// Gets or sets the HTML content property. /// </summary> [Required] [Display(Name = "Time")] public string Timer { get; set; } ... } ...
In the above code, I have created my view model which I will attach to my view. Here, I have created string type Timer property which will capture time input from the end-user.
4) Create a new "Controllers\TimerController.cs" file and code logic to format time.
5) Now, create a view "Views\Timer\Index.cshtml" file and add your code for time picker page in order to get the input from the end-user i.e.
... <div class="input-group"> <span class="input-group-addon">Time</span> <input id="timerId" type='text' class="form-control text-center" placeholder="Time" readonly="readonly" /> <span class="input-group-addon"> <span class="fa fa-clock-o"></span> </span> </div> ...
In the above code, I have created a simple view for taking time input from the end-user via Bootstrap Time Picker Jquery plugin.
6) Create "Scripts\script-custom-timepicker.js" file and add the code to integrate the jquery time picker plugin i.e.
$(document).ready(function () { ... var timerVal = moment().format('hh:mm A'); ... $('#timerId').timepicker( { template: 'dropdown', minuteStep: 1, secondStep: 1, showMeridian: true, defaultTime: timerVal }); ... });
