DateRangePicker

DateRangePickers combine two DateFields and a RangeCalendar popover to allow users to enter or select a date and time range.

<DateRangePicker label="Date range" />

Value#


A DateRangePicker displays a placeholder by default. An initial, uncontrolled value can be provided to the DateRangePicker using the defaultValue prop. Alternatively, a controlled value can be provided using the value prop.

Date ranges are objects with start and end properties containing date values, which are provided using objects in the @internationalized/date package. This library handles correct international date manipulation across calendars, time zones, and other localization concerns. DateRangePicker supports values of the following types:

  • CalendarDate – a date without any time components. May be parsed from a string representation using the parseDate function. Use this type to represent dates where the time is not important, such as a birthday or an all day calendar event.
  • CalendarDateTime – a date with a time, but not in any specific time zone. May be parsed from a string representation using the parseDateTime function. Use this type to represent times that occur at the same local time regardless of the time zone, such as the time of New Years Eve fireworks which always occur at midnight. Most times are better stored as a ZonedDateTime.
  • ZonedDateTime – a date with a time in a specific time zone. May be parsed from a string representation using the parseZonedDateTime, parseAbsolute, or parseAbsoluteToLocal functions. Use this type to represent an exact moment in time at a particular location on Earth.

  );
}

Time zones#

DateRangePicker is time zone aware when ZonedDateTime objects are 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.

In most cases, your data will come from and be sent to a server as an ISO 8601 formatted string. @internationalized/date includes functions for parsing strings in multiple formats into ZonedDateTime objects. Which format you use will depend on what information you need to store.

  • parseZonedDateTime – This function parses a date with an explicit time zone and optional UTC offset attached (e.g. "2021-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]" or "2021-11-07T00:45-07:00[America/Los_Angeles]"). This format preserves the maximum amount of information. If the exact local time and time zone that a user selected is important, use this format. Storing the time zone and offset that was selected rather than converting to UTC ensures that the local time is correct regardless of daylight saving rule changes (e.g. if a locale abolishes DST). Examples where this applies include calendar events, reminders, and other times that occur in a particular location.
  • parseAbsolute – This function parses an absolute date and time that occurs at the same instant at all locations on Earth. It can be represented in UTC (e.g. "2021-11-07T07:45:00Z"), or stored with a particular offset (e.g. "2021-11-07T07:45:00-07:00"). A time zone identifier, e.g. America/Los_Angeles, must be passed, and the result will be converted into that time zone. Absolute times are the best way to represent events that occurred in the past, or future events where an exact time is needed, regardless of time zone.
  • parseAbsoluteToLocal – This function parses an absolute date and time into the current user's local time zone. It is a shortcut for parseAbsolute, and accepts the same formats.
import {parseZonedDateTime} from '@internationalized/date';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  defaultValue={{
    start: parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]'),
    end: parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-08T11:15[America/Los_Angeles]')
  }} />
import {parseZonedDateTime} from '@internationalized/date';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  defaultValue={{
    start: parseZonedDateTime(
      '2022-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
    ),
    end: parseZonedDateTime(
      '2022-11-08T11:15[America/Los_Angeles]'
    )
  }}
/>
import {parseZonedDateTime} from '@internationalized/date';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  defaultValue={{
    start:
      parseZonedDateTime(
        '2022-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
      ),
    end:
      parseZonedDateTime(
        '2022-11-08T11:15[America/Los_Angeles]'
      )
  }}
/>

DateRangePicker displays times in the time zone included in the ZonedDateTime object. The above example is always displayed in Pacific Standard Time because the America/Los_Angeles time zone identifier is provided. @internationalized/date includes functions for converting dates between time zones, or parsing a date directly into a specific time zone or the user's local time zone, as shown below.

import {parseAbsoluteToLocal} from '@internationalized/date';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  defaultValue={{
    start: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-11-07T07:45:00Z'),
    end: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-11-08T14:25:00Z')
  }}
/>
import {parseAbsoluteToLocal} from '@internationalized/date';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  defaultValue={{
    start: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-11-07T07:45:00Z'),
    end: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-11-08T14:25:00Z')
  }}
/>
import {parseAbsoluteToLocal} from '@internationalized/date';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  defaultValue={{
    start:
      parseAbsoluteToLocal(
        '2021-11-07T07:45:00Z'
      ),
    end:
      parseAbsoluteToLocal(
        '2021-11-08T14:25:00Z'
      )
  }}
/>

Granularity#

The granularity prop allows you to control the smallest unit that is displayed by a DateRangePicker. By default, CalendarDate values are displayed with "day" granularity (year, month, and day), and CalendarDateTime and ZonedDateTime values are displayed with "minute" granularity. More granular time values can be displayed by setting the granularity prop to "second".

In addition, when a value with a time is provided but you wish to only display the date, you can set the granularity to "day". This has no effect on the actual value (it still has a time component), only on what fields are displayed. In the following example, two DateRangePickers are synchronized with the same value, but display different granularities.

function Example() {
  let [date, setDate] = React.useState({
    start: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-07T18:45:22Z'),
    end: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-08T20:00:00Z')
  });

  return (
    <Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date and time range"
        granularity="second"
        value={date}
        onChange={setDate} />
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        granularity="day"
        value={date}
        onChange={setDate} />
    </Flex>
  );
}
function Example() {
  let [date, setDate] = React.useState({
    start: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-07T18:45:22Z'),
    end: parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-08T20:00:00Z')
  });

  return (
    <Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date and time range"
        granularity="second"
        value={date}
        onChange={setDate} />
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        granularity="day"
        value={date}
        onChange={setDate} />
    </Flex>
  );
}
function Example() {
  let [date, setDate] =
    React.useState({
      start:
        parseAbsoluteToLocal(
          '2021-04-07T18:45:22Z'
        ),
      end:
        parseAbsoluteToLocal(
          '2021-04-08T20:00:00Z'
        )
    });

  return (
    <Flex
      gap="size-150"
      wrap
    >
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date and time range"
        granularity="second"
        value={date}
        onChange={setDate}
      />
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        granularity="day"
        value={date}
        onChange={setDate}
      />
    </Flex>
  );
}

If no value or defaultValue prop is passed, then the granularity prop also affects which type of value is emitted from the onChange event. Note that by default, time values will not have a time zone because none was supplied. You can override this by setting the placeholderValue prop explicitly. Values emitted from onChange will use the time zone of the placeholder value.

import {now} from '@internationalized/date';

<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    granularity="second" />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    placeholderValue={now('America/New_York')}
    granularity="second" />
</Flex>
import {now} from '@internationalized/date';

<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    granularity="second" />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    placeholderValue={now('America/New_York')}
    granularity="second" />
</Flex>
import {now} from '@internationalized/date';

<Flex
  gap="size-150"
  wrap
>
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    granularity="second"
  />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    placeholderValue={now(
      'America/New_York'
    )}
    granularity="second"
  />
</Flex>

International calendars#

DateRangePicker 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 Provider component.

Selected dates passed to onChange always use the same calendar system as the value or defaultValue prop. If no value or defaultValue is provided, then dates passed to onChange are always in the Gregorian calendar since this is the most commonly used. This means that even though the user selects dates in their local calendar system, applications are able to deal with dates from all users consistently.

The below example displays a DateRangePicker in the Hindi language, using the Indian calendar. Dates emitted from onChange are in the Gregorian calendar.

import {Provider} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] = React.useState(null);
  return (
    <Provider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
      <DateRangePicker label="Date range" value={range} onChange={setRange} />
      <p>Start date: {range?.start.toString()}</p>
      <p>End date: {range?.end.toString()}</p>
    </Provider>
  );
}
import {Provider} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] = React.useState(null);
  return (
    <Provider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        value={range}
        onChange={setRange}
      />
      <p>Start date: {range?.start.toString()}</p>
      <p>End date: {range?.end.toString()}</p>
    </Provider>
  );
}
import {Provider} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] =
    React.useState(null);
  return (
    <Provider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        value={range}
        onChange={setRange}
      />
      <p>
        Start date:{' '}
        {range?.start
          .toString()}
      </p>
      <p>
        End date:{' '}
        {range?.end
          .toString()}
      </p>
    </Provider>
  );
}

HTML forms#

DateRangePicker supports the startName and endName props for integration with HTML forms. The values will be submitted to the server as ISO 8601 formatted strings according to the granularity of the value. For example, if the date range picker allows selecting only dates then strings such as "2023-02-03" will be submitted, and if it allows selecting times then strings such as "2023-02-03T08:45:00" will be submitted. See the Value section above for more details about the supported value types.

<DateRangePicker label="Trip dates" startName="startDate" endName="endDate" />
<DateRangePicker
  label="Trip dates"
  startName="startDate"
  endName="endDate"
/>
<DateRangePicker
  label="Trip dates"
  startName="startDate"
  endName="endDate"
/>

Labeling#


A visual label should be provided for the DateRangePicker using the label prop. If the DateRangePicker is required, the isRequired and necessityIndicator props can be used to show a required state.

<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
  <DateRangePicker label="Date range" />
  <DateRangePicker label="Date range" isRequired necessityIndicator="icon" />
  <DateRangePicker label="Date range" isRequired necessityIndicator="label" />
  <DateRangePicker label="Date range" necessityIndicator="label" />
</Flex>
<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
  <DateRangePicker label="Date range" />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    isRequired
    necessityIndicator="icon"
  />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    isRequired
    necessityIndicator="label"
  />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    necessityIndicator="label"
  />
</Flex>
<Flex
  gap="size-150"
  wrap
>
  <DateRangePicker label="Date range" />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    isRequired
    necessityIndicator="icon"
  />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    isRequired
    necessityIndicator="label"
  />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    necessityIndicator="label"
  />
</Flex>

Accessibility#

If a visible label isn't specified, an aria-label must be provided to the DateRangePicker for accessibility. If the field is labeled by a separate element, an aria-labelledby prop must be provided using the id of the labeling element instead.

Internationalization#

In order to internationalize a DateRangePicker, a localized string should be passed to the label or aria-label prop. When the necessityIndicator prop is set to "label", a localized string will be provided for "(required)" or "(optional)" automatically.

Events#


DateRangePicker accepts an onChange prop which is triggered whenever the start or end date is edited by the user. The example below uses onChange to update a separate element with a formatted version of the date range in the user's locale and local time zone. This is done by converting the dates to native JavaScript Date objects to pass to the formatter.

import {getLocalTimeZone} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useDateFormatter} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] = React.useState({
    start: parseDate('2020-07-03'),
    end: parseDate('2020-07-10')
  });
  let formatter = useDateFormatter({ dateStyle: 'long' });

  return (
    <>
      <DateRangePicker label="Date range" value={range} onChange={setRange} />
      <p>
        Selected date: {range
          ? formatter.formatRange(
            range.start.toDate(getLocalTimeZone()),
            range.end.toDate(getLocalTimeZone())
          )
          : '--'}
      </p>
    </>
  );
}
import {getLocalTimeZone} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useDateFormatter} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] = React.useState({
    start: parseDate('2020-07-03'),
    end: parseDate('2020-07-10')
  });
  let formatter = useDateFormatter({ dateStyle: 'long' });

  return (
    <>
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        value={range}
        onChange={setRange}
      />
      <p>
        Selected date: {range
          ? formatter.formatRange(
            range.start.toDate(getLocalTimeZone()),
            range.end.toDate(getLocalTimeZone())
          )
          : '--'}
      </p>
    </>
  );
}
import {getLocalTimeZone} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useDateFormatter} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] =
    React.useState({
      start: parseDate(
        '2020-07-03'
      ),
      end: parseDate(
        '2020-07-10'
      )
    });
  let formatter =
    useDateFormatter({
      dateStyle: 'long'
    });

  return (
    <>
      <DateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        value={range}
        onChange={setRange}
      />
      <p>
        Selected date:
        {' '}
        {range
          ? formatter
            .formatRange(
              range.start
                .toDate(
                  getLocalTimeZone()
                ),
              range.end
                .toDate(
                  getLocalTimeZone()
                )
            )
          : '--'}
      </p>
    </>
  );
}

Validation#


DateRangePicker supports the isRequired prop to ensure the user enters a value, as well as minimum and maximum values, and custom client and server-side validation. It can also be integrated with other form libraries. See the Forms guide to learn more.

When the Form component has the validationBehavior="native" prop, validation errors block form submission and are displayed as help text automatically. Errors are displayed when the user blurs the date range picker or submits the form.

import {Button, ButtonGroup, Form} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

<Form validationBehavior="native" maxWidth="size-3000">
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    startName="startDate"
    endName="endDate"
    isRequired
  />  <ButtonGroup>
    <Button type="submit" variant="primary">Submit</Button>
    <Button type="reset" variant="secondary">Reset</Button>
  </ButtonGroup>
</Form>
import {
  Button,
  ButtonGroup,
  Form
} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

<Form validationBehavior="native" maxWidth="size-3000">
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    startName="startDate"
    endName="endDate"
    isRequired
  />  <ButtonGroup>
    <Button type="submit" variant="primary">
      Submit
    </Button>
    <Button type="reset" variant="secondary">
      Reset
    </Button>
  </ButtonGroup>
</Form>
import {
  Button,
  ButtonGroup,
  Form
} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

<Form
  validationBehavior="native"
  maxWidth="size-3000"
>
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    startName="startDate"
    endName="endDate"
    isRequired
  />  <ButtonGroup>
    <Button
      type="submit"
      variant="primary"
    >
      Submit
    </Button>
    <Button
      type="reset"
      variant="secondary"
    >
      Reset
    </Button>
  </ButtonGroup>
</Form>

By default, DateRangePicker displays default validation messages provided by the browser. See Customizing error messages in the Forms guide to learn how to provide your own custom errors.

Minimum and maximum values#

The minValue and maxValue props can also be used to ensure the value is within a specific range. DateRangePicker also validates that the end date is after the start date. This example only accepts dates after today.

import {today} from '@internationalized/date';

<Form validationBehavior="native" maxWidth="size-3000">
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Trip dates"
    minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}    defaultValue={{
      start: parseDate('2022-02-03'),
      end: parseDate('2022-05-03')
    }} />
  <ButtonGroup>
    <Button type="submit" variant="primary">Submit</Button>
    <Button type="reset" variant="secondary">Reset</Button>
  </ButtonGroup>
</Form>
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';

<Form validationBehavior="native" maxWidth="size-3000">
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Trip dates"
    minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}    defaultValue={{
      start: parseDate('2022-02-03'),
      end: parseDate('2022-05-03')
    }} />
  <ButtonGroup>
    <Button type="submit" variant="primary">Submit</Button>
    <Button type="reset" variant="secondary">Reset</Button>
  </ButtonGroup>
</Form>
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';

<Form
  validationBehavior="native"
  maxWidth="size-3000"
>
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Trip dates"
    minValue={today(
      getLocalTimeZone()
    )}    defaultValue={{
      start: parseDate(
        '2022-02-03'
      ),
      end: parseDate(
        '2022-05-03'
      )
    }}
  />

Custom validation#

The validate function can be used to perform custom validation logic. It receives the current date range, and should return a string or array of strings representing one or more error messages if the value is invalid.

This example validates that the selected date range is a maximum of 1 week in duration.

<Form validationBehavior="native" maxWidth="size-3000">
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Trip dates"
    validate={(range) =>
      range?.end.compare(range.start) > 7
        ? 'Maximum stay duration is 1 week.'
        : null}    defaultValue={{
      start: today(getLocalTimeZone()),
      end: today(getLocalTimeZone()).add({ weeks: 1, days: 3 })

Unavailable dates#

DateRangePicker 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. The isDateUnavailable prop accepts a callback that is called to evaluate whether each visible date is unavailable.

Note that by default, users may not select non-contiguous ranges, i.e. ranges that contain unavailable dates within them. Once a start date is selected in the calendar, enabled dates will be restricted to subsequent dates until an unavailable date is hit. While this is handled automatically in the calendar, additional validation logic must be provided to ensure an invalid state is displayed in the date field. This can be achieved using the validationState prop. See below for an example of how to allow non-contiguous ranges.

This example includes multiple unavailable date ranges, e.g. dates when a rental house is not available. The minValue prop is also used to prevent selecting dates before today. The validationState prop is used to mark selected date ranges with unavailable dates in the middle as invalid.

import {today} from '@internationalized/date';

function Example() {
  let now = today(getLocalTimeZone());
  let disabledRanges = [
    [now, now.add({ days: 5 })],
    [now.add({ days: 14 }), now.add({ days: 16 })],
    [now.add({ days: 23 }), now.add({ days: 24 })]
  ];

  return (
    <DateRangePicker
      label="Trip dates"
      minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
      isDateUnavailable={(date) =>
        disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
          date.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 && date.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
        )}
      validate={(value) =>
        disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
            value && value.end.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 &&
            value.start.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
          )
          ? 'Selected date range may not include unavailable dates.'
          : null}      validationBehavior="native"

  ];

            )
          ? 'Selected date range may not include unavailable dates.'
          : null}      validationBehavior="native"
    />
  );
}

Non-contiguous ranges#

The allowsNonContiguousRanges prop enables a range to be selected even if there are unavailable dates in the middle. The value emitted in the onChange event will still be a single range with a start and end property, but unavailable dates will not be displayed as selected. It is up to applications to split the full selected range into multiple as needed for business logic.

This example prevents selecting weekends, but allows selecting ranges that span multiple weeks.

import {isWeekend} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useLocale} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

function Example() {
  let { locale } = useLocale();

  return (
    <DateRangePicker
      label="Time off request"
      isDateUnavailable={(date) => isWeekend(date, locale)}
      allowsNonContiguousRanges
    />
  );
}
import {isWeekend} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useLocale} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

function Example() {
  let { locale } = useLocale();

  return (
    <DateRangePicker
      label="Time off request"
      isDateUnavailable={(date) => isWeekend(date, locale)}
      allowsNonContiguousRanges
    />
  );
}
import {isWeekend} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useLocale} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

function Example() {
  let { locale } =
    useLocale();

  return (
    <DateRangePicker
      label="Time off request"
      isDateUnavailable={(date) =>
        isWeekend(
          date,
          locale
        )}
      allowsNonContiguousRanges
    />
  );
}

Read only#

The isReadOnly boolean prop makes the DateRangePicker's value immutable. Unlike isDisabled, the DateRangePicker remains focusable.

<DateRangePicker

  value={{
    start: today(getLocalTimeZone()),
    end: today(getLocalTimeZone()).add({ weeks: 1 })
  }}
  isReadOnly

    ),
    end: today(
      getLocalTimeZone()
    ).add({
      weeks: 1
    })
  }}
  isReadOnly
/>

Label alignment and position#

View guidelines

By default, the label is positioned above the DateRangePicker. The labelPosition prop can be used to position the label to the side. The labelAlign prop can be used to align the label as "start" or "end". For left-to-right (LTR) languages, "start" refers to the left most edge of the DateRangePicker and "end" refers to the right most edge. For right-to-left (RTL) languages, this is flipped.

<DateRangePicker label="Date range" labelPosition="side" labelAlign="end" />
<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  labelPosition="side"
  labelAlign="end"
/>
<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  labelPosition="side"
  labelAlign="end"
/>

Help text#

View guidelines

Both a description and an error message can be supplied to a DateRangePicker. The description is always visible unless the validationState is “invalid” and an error message is provided. The error message can be used to help the user fix their input quickly and should be specific to the detected error. All strings should be localized.

<Flex gap="size-100" wrap>
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    defaultValue={{
      start: today(getLocalTimeZone()),
      end: today(getLocalTimeZone()).add({ weeks: 1 })
    }}
    validationState="valid"
    description="Select your trip dates."
  />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"

      ),
      end: today(
        getLocalTimeZone()
      ).add({
        weeks: 1
      })
    }}
    validationState="valid"
    description="Select your trip dates."
  />
  <DateRangePicker
    label="Date range"
    validationState="invalid"
    errorMessage="Empty input is not allowed."
  />
</Flex>

DateRangePicker also supports displaying the expected date format for the user's locale automatically using the showFormatHelpText prop.

<DateRangePicker label="Date range" showFormatHelpText />
<DateRangePicker label="Date range" showFormatHelpText />
<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  showFormatHelpText
/>

Contextual help#

A ContextualHelp element may be placed next to the label to provide additional information or help about a DateRangePicker.

import {Content, ContextualHelp, Heading} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Trip dates"
  contextualHelp={
    <ContextualHelp variant="info">
      <Heading>Date changes</Heading>
      <Content>Your trip dates cannot be changed once scheduled.</Content>
    </ContextualHelp>
  } />
import {
  Content,
  ContextualHelp,
  Heading
} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Trip dates"
  contextualHelp={
    <ContextualHelp variant="info">
      <Heading>Date changes</Heading>
      <Content>
        Your trip dates cannot be changed once scheduled.
      </Content>
    </ContextualHelp>
  }
/>
import {
  Content,
  ContextualHelp,
  Heading
} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Trip dates"
  contextualHelp={
    <ContextualHelp variant="info">
      <Heading>
        Date changes
      </Heading>
      <Content>
        Your trip dates
        cannot be
        changed once
        scheduled.
      </Content>
    </ContextualHelp>
  }
/>

Placeholder value#

When no value is set, a placeholder is shown. The format of the placeholder is influenced by the granularity and placeholderValue props. placeholderValue also controls the default values of each segment when the user first interacts with them, e.g. using the up and down arrow keys, as well as the default month shown in the calendar popover. By default, the placeholderValue is the current date at midnight, but you can set it to a more appropriate value if needed.

import {CalendarDate} from '@internationalized/date';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  placeholderValue={new CalendarDate(1980, 1, 1)}
/>
import {CalendarDate} from '@internationalized/date';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  placeholderValue={new CalendarDate(1980, 1, 1)}
/>
import {CalendarDate} from '@internationalized/date';

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  placeholderValue={new CalendarDate(
    1980,
    1,
    1
  )}
/>

Maximum visible months#

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

<DateRangePicker label="Date range" maxVisibleMonths={3} />
<DateRangePicker label="Date range" maxVisibleMonths={3} />
<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  maxVisibleMonths={3}
/>

Page behavior#

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

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  maxVisibleMonths={3}
  pageBehavior="single"
/>
<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  maxVisibleMonths={3}
  pageBehavior="single"
/>
<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  maxVisibleMonths={3}
  pageBehavior="single"
/>

Hide time zone#

When ZonedDateTime objects are provided as the value of a DateRangePicker, the time zone abbreviation is displayed by default. However, if this is displayed elsewhere or implicit based on the usecase, it can be hidden using the hideTimeZone option.

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  defaultValue={{
    start: parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-07T10:45[America/Los_Angeles]'),
    end: parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-08T19:45[America/Los_Angeles]')
  }}
  hideTimeZone />

Hour cycle#

By default, DateRangePicker displays times in either 12 or 24 hour hour format depending on the user's locale. However, this can be overridden using the hourCycle prop if needed for a specific usecase. This example forces the DateRangePicker to use 24-hour time, regardless of the locale.

<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  granularity="minute"
  hourCycle={24} />
<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  granularity="minute"
  hourCycle={24} />
<DateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  granularity="minute"
  hourCycle={24} />

Testing#


The DateRangePicker features an overlay that transitions in and out of the page as it is opened and closed. Depending on your configuration, this overlay may render as a tray or a popover. Please see the following sections in the testing docs for more information on how to handle these behaviors in your test suite.
