title: Bootstrap datepicker default value simple_form_for
body: <p>I am using the bootstrap date picker to enable selection of dates in a form using simple_form_for. For example</p>
  
  <pre><code>  &lt;%= f.input :payment_date, as: :string, input_html: { class: "datepicker" } %&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My date picker uses the format of dd-mm-yyyy</p>
  
  <p>I would like to set today's date as the default value in the form using simple_form_for, any ideas on how I can do that?</p>
