# 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-picker` or `yarn add react-date-picker`.
- Import by adding `import DatePicker from 'react-date-picker'`.
- Use by adding ``. Use `onChange` prop for getting new values.
## Demo
A minimal demo page can be found in `sample` directory.
[Online demo](https://projects.wojtekmaj.pl/react-date-picker/) 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.
```tsx
```
## Looking for a time picker or a datetime picker?
React-Date-Picker will play nicely with [React-Time-Picker](https://github.com/wojtekmaj/react-time-picker) and [React-DateTime-Picker](https://github.com/wojtekmaj/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 |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| ≥16.8 | latest |
| ≥16.3 | 8.x |
| ≥16.0 | 7.x |
[React-Calendar](https://github.com/wojtekmaj/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](https://caniuse.com/#feat=internationalization).
### 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:
```tsx
import { useState } from 'react';
import DatePicker from 'react-date-picker';
type ValuePiece = Date | null;
type Value = ValuePiece | [ValuePiece, ValuePiece];
function MyApp() {
const [value, onChange] = useState(new Date());
return (
);
}
```
### 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:
```ts
import 'react-date-picker/dist/DatePicker.css';
import 'react-calendar/dist/Calendar.css';
```
## User guide
### DatePicker
Displays an input field complete with custom inputs, native input, and a calendar.

| 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)` |

### Calendar
DatePicker component passes all props to React-Calendar, with the exception of `className` (you can use `calendarClassName` for that instead). There are tons of customizations you can do! For more information, see [Calendar component props](https://github.com/wojtekmaj/react-calendar#props).
