I want to disable weekends in the datepicker, as well as specific dates which will be in an array. I've noticed I cannot combine these 2 options in beforeShowDay as it only accepts 1 function. Is there a way I can add 2 function in beforeShowDay?
$(function() {
var unavailableDates = ["27-12-2021", "28-12-2021", "29-12-2021", "30-12-2021", "31-12-2021", "01-01-2022", "02-01-2022", "03-01-2022", "04-01-2022"];
function unavailable(date) {
dmy = date.getDate() + "-" + (date.getMonth() + 1) + "-" + date.getFullYear();
if ($.inArray(dmy, unavailableDates) == -1) {
return [true, ""];
} else {
return [false, "", "Unavailable"];
}
}
$("#datepicker").datepicker({
dateFormat: "dd-mm-yy",
changeMonth: false,
changeYear: false,
minDate: '10D',
beforeShowDay: $.datepicker.noWeekends, unavailable // throws an error becaus ei have 2 options
});
});<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

<input type="text" id="datepicker" />The issue is because the beforeShowDay property only accepts a single function.
To do what you require you can create an anonymous function where you call both noWeekends() and your unavailable() functions and combine the result, like this:
jQuery($ => {
let unavailableDates = ["27-12-2021", "28-12-2021", "29-12-2021", "30-12-2021", "31-12-2021", "01-01-2022", "02-01-2022", "03-01-2022", "04-01-2022"];
let isUnavailable = date => $.inArray(`${date.getDate()}-${(date.getMonth() + 1)}-${date.getFullYear()}`, unavailableDates) >= 0;
$("#datepicker").datepicker({
dateFormat: "dd-mm-yy",
changeMonth: false,
changeYear: false,
minDate: '10D',
beforeShowDay: date => {
if (isUnavailable(date) || !$.datepicker.noWeekends(date)[0]) {
return [false, "", "Unavailable"];
} else {
return [true, ""];
}
}
});
