Datepicker widget

[Reza]

There are textbox and dropdown list widgets in Databricks. Is there any datepicker widget? If not, is there any plan to add it?

@Reza Rajabi​ , No, it is not 😞 I think at some meeting, someone discussed it. We can ask about it during the following office hours https://databricks.com/p/webinar/databricks-office-hours?utm_source=databricks&utm_medium=email&utm_...

Hi @Reza Rajabi​ , There are 4 types of widgets as of now:

• text: Input a value in a text box.
• dropdown: Select a value from a list of provided values.
• combobox: Combination of text and dropdown. Select a value from a provided list or input one in the text box.
• multiselect: Select one or more values from a list of provided values.

Please read the document - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/databricks/notebooks/widgets#widget-types

I'll get back to you on plans to add the datepicker widget.

Hi Kaniz,

I think I mentioned that I am aware of the other widget types. My question was regarding the datepicker widget.

Hi @Reza Rajabi​ , One will be available with ipywidgets when it goes to public preview. We anticipate that happening within the next couple of months.

[Hubert-Dudek]

Great News so we are waiting for ipywidgets and like @Reza Rajabi​ I am waiting for date picker 🙂

[Kaniz]

Yes @Hubert Dudek​ , We'll see that in the next couple of months.
