Date Handler in custom views module (how to implement)

Hi, I'm trying to dig around for information to add the ability in my custom views plugin to be able to select a start and end date for filter. I'm pulling in remote data and would like to have a start and end date (hopefully date picker) that then I can intercept and pass though my custom query to the remote database.

I would need suggestions into what to put in my views_data hook, then in the custom handler what an example piece of code would I need if anything?
