How to use it:

1. Import the picker.js.

<script src="./picker.js"></script>

// OR
import picker from './picker.js'

2. Create an empty DIV for the picker component.

<div class="start-date"></div>

3. Initialize the picker component.

var $picker = new Picker({
    el: '.start-date',
    // options here
})

4. Open the picker.

$picker.open();

5. Fire an event when confirmed.

$picker.onConfirm = res =>  {
  // do something here
}

6. Here is a real-world example showing how to create an iOS-like date picker.

function getNextDay (y, m, d) {
  let _date = new Date(+y, +m -1, +d + 1);
  return [_date.getFullYear(), _date.getMonth() + 1, _date.getDate()]
}
function getDateList () {
  var cur = new Date(),
      year =  cur.getFullYear(),
      month = (cur.getMonth() + 1) > 9 ? (cur.getMonth() + 1) : '0' + (cur.getMonth() +1),
      day = cur.getDate() > 9 ? cur.getDate() : 0 + cur.getDate();
      nextDay = getNextDay(year, month, day),
      monthArr = [],
      dayArr = [];
  for (var i = 1; i <= 12; i++) {
      monthArr.push({
          title: i,
          value: i
      });
  }
  for (var i = 1; i <=new Date(nextDay[0], nextDay[1], 0).getDate(); i++) {
      dayArr.push({
          title: i,
          value: i
      });
  }
  var dateList = [
      [
          {
              title: (+nextDay[0] -1),
              value: (+nextDay[0] -1)
          },
          {
              title: (+nextDay[0]),
              value: (+nextDay[0])
          },
          {
              title: (+nextDay[0] +1),
              value: (+nextDay[0] +1)
          },
      ],
      monthArr,
      dayArr
  ]
  return dateList;
}
var dateList = getDateList(), selectYear, selectMonth, selectDay, selectedYearS, selectedMonthS, selectedDayS;

var $picker = new Picker({
    el: '.start-date',
    autoHide: true,
    itemHeight: 36,
    data: dateList,
    onChange: res => {
      // console.log(res);
      switch (res.index) {
          case 0:
              console.log(res.value)
              selectYear = res.value;
          break;
          case 1:
              selectMonth = res.value;
          break;
          case 2:
              selectDay = res.value;
          break;
      }
    },
    onChangeEnd: res => {
      let _day = [], maxDay = new Date(selectYear, selectMonth, 0).getDate();
      for (var i = 0; i <=maxDay; i++) {
         _day.push({
             title: i,
             value: i
         });
      }
      if (res.index === 0 || res.index === 1) {
          $picker.setItem({
              index: 2,
              data: _day,
              default: selectDay < maxDay ? selectDay : maxDay
          })
      }
    }
})
