Allow shift/ctrl keys to select range/multiple dates in Bootstrap datepicker

I have here a Bootstrap datepicker. I want to create a date picker wherein I can enter a date range if the Shift key is held, and multiple dates if the Ctrl key is held. Then the dates will be highlighted.

This is the code I have so far.

<input class="form-control" type="text" id="multi" name="multi">
$("#multi").on('keydown', function(event) {
  if (event.shiftKey === true) {
    isShift = true;
    //alert(isShift);
    console.log(isShift);
    isCtrl = false;
    return false
  } else if (event.ctrlKey === true) {
    //alert('ey ctrl press');
    isCtrl = true;
    console.log(isCtrl);
    isShift = false;
    return false
  } else {
    return false
  }
});

$('#multi').datepicker({
  multidate: true,
  format: 'mm-dd-yyyy',
  forceParse: false
}).on('hide', function(e) {
  e.stopPropagation();
})
