React-Date-Picker
A date picker for your React app.
- Pick days, months, years, or even decades
- Supports virtually any language
- No moment.js needed
tl;dr
- Install by executing
npm install react-date-pickeroryarn add react-date-picker. - Import by adding
import DatePicker from 'react-date-picker'. - Use by adding
<DatePicker />. UseonChangeprop for getting new values.
Demo
A minimal demo page can be found in sample directory.
Online demo is also available!
Consider native alternative
If you don't need to support legacy browsers and don't need the advanced features this package provides, consider using native date input instead. It's more accessible, adds no extra weight to your bundle, and works better on mobile devices.
1<input aria-label="Date" type="date" />
Looking for a time picker or a datetime picker?
React-Date-Picker will play nicely with React-Time-Picker and React-DateTime-Picker. Check them out!
Getting started
Compatibility
Your project needs to use React 16.3 or later. If you use an older version of React, please refer to the table below to find a suitable React-Date-Picker version.
| React version | Newest compatible React-Date-Picker version |
|---|---|
| ≥16.3 | latest |
| ≥16.0 | 7.x |
React-Calendar, on which React-Date-Picker relies heavily, uses modern web technologies. That's why it's so fast, lightweight and easy to style. This, however, comes at a cost of supporting only modern browsers.
Legacy browsers
If you need to support legacy browsers like Internet Explorer 10, you will need to use Intl.js or another Intl polyfill along with React-Date-Picker.
Installation
Add React-Date-Picker to your project by executing npm install react-date-picker or yarn add react-date-picker.
Usage
Here's an example of basic usage:
1import { useState } from 'react'; 2import DatePicker from 'react-date-picker'; 3 4type ValuePiece = Date | null; 5 6type Value = ValuePiece | [ValuePiece, ValuePiece]; 7 8function MyApp() { 9 const [value, onChange] = useState<Value>(new Date()); 10 11 return ( 12 <div> 13 <DatePicker onChange={onChange} value={value} /> 14 </div> 15 ); 16}
Custom styling
If you want to use default React-Date-Picker and React-Calendar styling to build upon it, you can import them by using:
1import 'react-date-picker/dist/DatePicker.css'; 2import 'react-calendar/dist/Calendar.css';
User guide
DatePicker
Displays an input field complete with custom inputs, native input, and a calendar.

| calendarProps | Props to pass to React-Calendar component. | n/a | See React-Calendar documentation |
| calendarIcon | Content of the calendar button. Setting the value explicitly to null will hide the icon. | (default icon) |
|
| className | Class name(s) that will be added along with "react-date-picker" to the main React-Date-Picker <div> element. | n/a |
|
| clearAriaLabel | aria-label for the clear button. | n/a | "Clear value" |
| clearIcon | Content of the clear button. Setting the value explicitly to null will hide the icon. | (default icon) |

| data-testid | data-testid attribute for the main React-Date-Picker <div> element. | n/a | "date-picker" |
| dayAriaLabel | aria-label for the day input. | n/a | "Day" |

| id | id attribute for the main React-Date-Picker <div> element. | n/a | "date-picker" |
| isOpen | Whether the calendar should be opened. | false | true |
| locale | Locale that should be used by the date picker and the calendar. Can be any IETF language tag. Note: When using SSR, setting this prop may help resolving hydration errors caused by locale mismatch between server and client. | Server locale/User's browser settings | "hu-HU" |
| maxDate | Maximum date that the user can select. Periods partially overlapped by maxDate will also be selectable, although React-Date-Picker will ensure that no later date is selected. | n/a | Date: new Date() |
| maxDetail | The most detailed calendar view that the user shall see. View defined here also becomes the one on which clicking an item in the calendar will select a date and pass it to onChange. Can be "month", "year", "decade" or "century". | "month" | "year" |

| onCalendarOpen | Function called when the calendar opens. | n/a | () => alert('Calendar opened') |
| onChange | Function called when the user picks a valid date. If any of the fields were excluded using custom format, new Date(y, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0), where y is the current year, is going to serve as a "base". | n/a | (value) => alert('New date is: ', value) |
| onFocus | Function called when the user focuses an input. | n/a | (event) => alert('Focused input: ', event.target.name) |
| onInvalidChange | Function called when the user picks an invalid date. | n/a | () => alert('Invalid date') |
| openCalendarOnFocus | Whether to open the calendar on input focus. Note: It's recommended to use shouldOpenCalendar function instead. | true | false |
