Get selected dates on Bootstrap Datepicker as string? - bootstrap-datepicker

Question

I am using Bootstrap Datepicker having multidate: true event. And I am getting the selected date one by one, using:
.on('changeDate', function(e){
console.log(e.format('mm-dd-yyyy'));
})
Is there any ways to get all the selected dates altogether as string?
Note: The string should contain the dates which I have selected, and should not contain which I have unselected.
Here is my code so far:
$('.check-in').datepicker({
autoclose: true,
startDate: "1d",
format: "mm-dd-yyyy",
weekStart: 1,
orientation: "bottom auto",
todayHighlight: true,
multidate: true
}).on('changeDate', function(e){
console.log(e.format('mm-dd-yyyy'));
});

Answer 1

If you want the value as a string you can use this
>> var value = $("#dateID input").val();
I hope this can help you. :)

Answer 2

So did it myself. Thank you all for help.
$('.check-in').datepicker({
autoclose: true,
startDate: "1d",
format: "mm-dd-yyyy",
weekStart: 1,
orientation: "bottom auto",
todayHighlight: true,
multidate: true,
sideBySide: true
}).on('changeDate', function(e){
var dates_arr = [];
for(i=0; i<e.dates.length; i++){
dates_arr.push((String(e.dates[i].getMonth() + 1).padStart(2, '0')) + '-' + String(e.dates[i].getDate()).padStart(2, '0') + '-' + e.dates[i].getFullYear());
}
console.log(dates_arr.join());
});
