With Time Fields

Selector Icon

You can use the selector to add content to the start and end of the date-picker.

Controlled

You can use the value and onChange properties to control the input value.

Time Zones

DatePicker is time zone aware when a ZonedDateTime object is provided as the value. In this case, the time zone abbreviation is displayed, and time zone concerns such as daylight saving time are taken into account when the value is manipulated.

@internationalized/date includes functions for parsing strings in multiple formats into ZonedDateTime objects.

npm install @internationalized/date
import {parseZonedDateTime} from "@internationalized/date";

Granularity

The granularity prop allows you to control the smallest unit that is displayed by DatePicker By default, the value is displayed with "day" granularity (year, month, and day), and CalendarDateTime and ZonedDateTime values are displayed with "minute" granularity.

@internationalized/date includes functions for parsing strings in multiple formats into ZonedDateTime objects.

npm install @internationalized/date @react-aria/i18n
import {DateValue, now, parseAbsoluteToLocal} from "@internationalized/date";
import {useDateFormatter} from "@react-aria/i18n";

Min Date And Max Date

The minValue and maxValue props can also be used to ensure the value is within a specific range.

@internationalized/date includes functions for parsing strings in multiple formats into ZonedDateTime objects.

npm install @internationalized/date
import {getLocalTimeZone, parseDate, today} from "@internationalized/date";

International Calendar

DatePicker supports selecting dates in many calendar systems used around the world, including Gregorian, Hebrew, Indian, Islamic, Buddhist, and more. Dates are automatically displayed in the appropriate calendar system for the user's locale. The calendar system can be overridden using the Unicode calendar locale extension, passed to the I18nProvider component.

@internationalized/date includes functions for parsing strings in multiple formats into ZonedDateTime objects.

npm install @internationalized/date @react-aria/i18n
import {DateValue, now, parseAbsoluteToLocal} from "@internationalized/date";
import {I18nProvider} from "@react-aria/i18n";

Unavailable Dates

DatePicker supports marking certain dates as unavailable. These dates cannot be selected by the user and are displayed with a crossed out appearance in the calendar. In the date field, an invalid state is displayed if a user enters an unavailable date.

@internationalized/date includes functions for parsing strings in multiple formats into ZonedDateTime objects.

npm install @internationalized/date @react-aria/i18n
import {today, isWeekend, getLocalTimeZone} from "@internationalized/date";
import {useLocale} from "@react-aria/i18n";

Visible Months

By default, the calendar popover displays a single month. The visibleMonths prop allows displaying up to 3 months at a time, if screen space permits.

Page Behavior

By default, when pressing the next or previous buttons, pagination will advance by the visibleMonths value. This behavior can be changed to page by single months instead, by setting pageBehavior to single.

Preset

@internationalized/date includes functions for parsing strings in multiple formats into ZonedDateTime objects.

npm install @internationalized/date @react-aria/i18n
import {
DateValue,
now,
useLocale,
startOfWeek,
startOfMonth,
useDateFormatter,
getLocalTimeZone,
} from "@internationalized/date";
import {I18nProvider} from "@react-aria/i18n";
