bootstrap datepicker today as default

Set after Init

 $('#dp-ex-3').datepicker({ autoclose: true, language: 'es' });
$('#dp-ex-3').datepicker('update', new Date());

This example is working.

I used this code

$('#datePicker').datepicker({
                    format:'mm/dd/yyyy',
                }).datepicker("setDate",'now');

This should work:

$("#datepicker").datepicker("setDate", new Date());

And for autoclose (fiddle):

$('#datepicker').datepicker({
        "setDate": new Date(),
        "autoclose": true
});
