Features#


A date range picker can be built using two separate <input type="date"> elements, but this is very limited in functionality, lacking in internationalization capabilities, inconsistent between browsers, and difficult to style. DateRangePicker helps achieve accessible and international date and time range pickers that can be styled as needed.

  • Dates and times – Support for dates and times with configurable granularity.
  • International – Support for 13 calendar systems used around the world, including Gregorian, Buddhist, Islamic, Persian, and more. Locale-specific formatting, number systems, hour cycles, and right-to-left support are available as well.
  • Time zone aware – Dates and times can optionally include a time zone. All modifications follow time zone rules such as daylight saving time.
  • Accessible – Each date and time unit is displayed as an individually focusable and editable segment, which allows users an easy way to edit dates using the keyboard, in any date format and locale. Users can also open a calendar popover to select date ranges in a standard month grid. Localized screen reader messages are included to announce when the selection and visible date range change.
  • Touch friendly – Date segments are editable using an easy to use numeric keypad, date ranges can be selected by dragging over dates in the calendar using a touch screen, and all interactions are accessible using touch-based screen readers.
  • Customizable – As with all of React Aria, the DOM structure and styling of all elements can be fully customized.

A date picker consists of a label, and group containing a date field and a button. Clicking the button opens a popup containing a calendar. The date field includes segments representing each unit of a date and time (e.g. years, months, days, etc.), each of which is individually focusable and editable using the keyboard. The calendar popup offers a more visual way of choosing a date.

DateRangePicker also supports optional description and error message elements, which can be used to provide more context about the field, and any validation messages. These are linked with the input via the aria-describedby attribute.

If the date range picker does not have a visible label, an aria-label or aria-labelledby prop must be passed instead to identify it to assistive technology.

Note that most of this anatomy is shared with DatePicker, so you can reuse many components between them if you have both.

Concepts#

DateRangePicker makes use of the following concepts:

Composed components#

A DateRangePicker uses the following components, which may also be used standalone or reused in other components.

Label
A label provides context for an input element.
DateField
A date field allows a user to enter and edit date values using a keyboard.
Button
A button allows a user to perform an action.
Popover
A popover displays content in context with a trigger element.
Dialog
A dialog is an overlay shown above other content in an application.
RangeCalendar
A range calendar allows a user to select a contiguous range of dates.

Props#


DateRangePicker#

NameTypeDefaultDescription
minValueDateValueThe minimum allowed date that a user may select.
maxValueDateValueThe maximum allowed date that a user may select.
isDateUnavailable( (date: DateValue )) => booleanCallback that is called for each date of the calendar. If it returns true, then the date is unavailable.
placeholderValueDateValueA placeholder date that influences the format of the placeholder shown when no value is selected. Defaults to today's date at midnight.
hourCycle1224Whether to display the time in 12 or 24 hour format. By default, this is determined by the user's locale.

Styling#


React Aria components can be styled in many ways, including using CSS classes, inline styles, utility classes (e.g. Tailwind), CSS-in-JS (e.g. Styled Components), etc. By default, all components include a builtin className attribute which can be targeted using CSS selectors. These follow the react-aria-ComponentName naming convention.

.react-aria-DateRangePicker {
  /* ... */
}
.react-aria-DateRangePicker {
  /* ... */
}
.react-aria-DateRangePicker {
  /* ... */
}

A custom className can also be specified on any component. This overrides the default className provided by React Aria with your own.

<DateInput className="my-date-input">
  {/* ... */}
</DateInput>
<DateInput className="my-date-input">
  {/* ... */}
</DateInput>
<DateInput className="my-date-input">
  {/* ... */}
</DateInput>;

In addition, some components support multiple UI states (e.g. focused, placeholder, readonly, etc.). React Aria components expose states using DOM attributes, which you can target in CSS selectors. These are ARIA attributes wherever possible, or data attributes when a relevant ARIA attribute does not exist. For example:

.react-aria-DateSegment[data-placeholder] {
  /* ... */
}

.react-aria-DateSegment[aria-readonly] {
  /* ... */
}
.react-aria-DateSegment[data-placeholder] {
  /* ... */
}

.react-aria-DateSegment[aria-readonly] {
  /* ... */
}
.react-aria-DateSegment[data-placeholder] {
  /* ... */
}

.react-aria-DateSegment[aria-readonly] {
  /* ... */
}

The className and style props also accept functions which receive states for styling. This lets you dynamically determine the classes or styles to apply, which is useful when using utility CSS libraries like Tailwind.

<DateSegment
  className={({ isPlaceholder }) =>
    isPlaceholder ? 'bg-gray-300' : 'bg-gray-600'}
/>;
<DateSegment
  className={({ isPlaceholder }) =>
    isPlaceholder ? 'bg-gray-300' : 'bg-gray-600'}
/>;
<DateSegment
  className={(
    { isPlaceholder }
  ) =>
    isPlaceholder
      ? 'bg-gray-300'
      : 'bg-gray-600'}
/>;

Render props may also be used as children to alter what elements are rendered based on the current state. For example, you could render the placeholder as a separate element to always reserve space for it.

<DateSegment>
  {({ text, placeholder, isPlaceholder }) => (
    <>
      <span style={{ visibility: isPlaceholder ? 'visible' : 'hidden' }}>
        {placeholder}
      </span>
      {isPlaceholder ? '' : text}
    </>
  )}
</DateSegment>;
<DateSegment>
  {({ text, placeholder, isPlaceholder }) => (
    <>
      <span
        style={{
          visibility: isPlaceholder ? 'visible' : 'hidden'
        }}
      >
        {placeholder}
      </span>
      {isPlaceholder ? '' : text}
    </>
  )}
</DateSegment>;
<DateSegment>
  {(
    {
      text,
      placeholder,
      isPlaceholder
    }
  ) => (
    <>
      <span
        style={{
          visibility:
            isPlaceholder
              ? 'visible'
              : 'hidden'
        }}
      >
        {placeholder}
      </span>
      {isPlaceholder
        ? ''
        : text}
    </>
  )}
</DateSegment>;

The states, selectors, and render props for each component used in a DateRangePicker are documented below.

DateRangePicker#

A DateRangePicker can be targeted with the .react-aria-DateRangePicker CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className. It provides a DateRangePickerState object to its render props, which can be used to customize the className, style, or children.

Label#

A Label can be targeted with the .react-aria-Label CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className.

Group#

A Group can be targeted with the [role=group] selector, or by adding a custom className.

DateInput#

A DateInput can be targeted with the .react-aria-DateInput CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className.

DateSegment#

A DateSegment can be targeted with the .react-aria-DateSegment CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className. It supports the following states and render props:

NameCSS SelectorDescription
isPlaceholder[data-placeholder]Whether the value is a placeholder.
isReadOnly[aria-readonly]Whether the segment is read only.
isInvalid[aria-invalid]Whether the date field is in an invalid state.
type[data-type="..."]The type of segment. Values include literal, year, month, day, etc.
textThe formatted text for the segment.
valueThe numeric value for the segment, if applicable.
minValueThe minimum numeric value for the segment, if applicable.
maxValueThe maximum numeric value for the segment, if applicable.
placeholderA placeholder string for the segment.

Button#

A Button can be targeted with the .react-aria-Button CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className. The next and previous buttons within a range calendar can be targeted specifically with the [slot=previous] and [slot=next] selectors. Buttons support the following states:

NameCSS SelectorDescription
isHovered[data-hovered]Whether the button is currently hovered with a mouse.
isPressed[data-pressed]Whether the button is currently in a pressed state.
isFocused:focusWhether the button is focused, either via a mouse or keyboard.
isFocusVisible[data-focus-visible]Whether the button is keyboard focused.
isDisabled:disabledWhether the button is disabled.

Popover#

The Popover component can be targeted with the .react-aria-Popover CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className. Note that it renders in a React Portal, so it will not appear as a descendant of the DateRangePicker in the DOM. It supports the following states and render props:

NameCSS SelectorDescription
placement[data-placement="left | right | top | bottom"]The placement of the tooltip relative to the trigger.
isEntering[data-entering]Whether the popover is currently entering. Use this to apply animations.
isExiting[data-exiting]Whether the popover is currently exiting. Use this to apply animations.

Dialog#

A Dialog can be targeted with the .react-aria-Dialog CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className.

RangeCalendar#

A RangeCalendar can be targeted with the .react-aria-RangeCalendar CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className.

CalendarGrid#

A CalendarGrid can be targeted with the .react-aria-CalendarGrid CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className.

CalendarCell#

A CalendarCell can be targeted with the .react-aria-CalendarCell CSS selector, or by overriding with a custom className. It supports the following states:

NameCSS SelectorDescription
dateThe date that the cell represents.
formattedDateThe day number formatted according to the current locale.
isHovered[data-hovered]Whether the cell is currently hovered with a mouse.
isPressed[data-pressed]Whether the cell is currently being pressed.
isSelected[data-selected]Whether the cell is selected.
isSelectionStart[data-selection-start]Whether the cell is the first date in a range selection.
isSelectionEnd[data-selection-end]Whether the cell is the last date in a range selection.
isFocused:focusWhether the cell is focused.
isFocusVisible[data-focus-visible]Whether the cell is keyboard focused.
isDisabled[data-disabled]

Whether the cell is disabled, according to the calendar's minValue, maxValue, and isDisabled props. Disabled dates are not focusable, and cannot be selected by the user. They are typically displayed with a dimmed appearance.

isOutsideVisibleRange[data-outside-visible-range]

Whether the cell is outside the visible range of the calendar. For example, dates before the first day of a month in the same week.

isOutsideMonth[data-outside-month]Whether the cell is outside the current month.
isUnavailable[data-unavailable]

Whether the cell is unavailable, according to the calendar's isDateUnavailable prop. Unavailable dates remain focusable, but cannot be selected by the user. They should be displayed with a visual affordance to indicate they are unavailable, such as a different color or a strikethrough.

Note that because they are focusable, unavailable dates must meet a 4.5:1 color contrast ratio, as defined by WCAG.

isInvalid[aria-invalid]Whether the cell is part of an invalid selection.

Text#

The help text elements within a DateRangePicker can be targeted with the [slot=description] and [slot=errorMessage] CSS selectors, or by adding a custom className.

Reusable wrappers#


If you will use a DateRangePicker in multiple places in your app, you can wrap all of the pieces into a reusable component. This way, the DOM structure, styling code, and other logic are defined in a single place and reused everywhere to ensure consistency.

This example wraps DateRangePicker and all of its children together into a single component which accepts a label prop, which is passed to the right place. It also shows how to use the description and errorMessage slots to render help text (see below for details).

import {Text} from 'react-aria-components';

function MyDateRangePicker({label, description, errorMessage, ...props}) {
  return (
    <DateRangePicker {...props}>
      <Label>{label}</Label>

  );
}

<MyDateRangePicker label="Event date" />

Usage#


The following examples show how to use the MyDateRangePicker component created in the above example.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] =
    React.useState({
      start: parseDate(

              .toDate(
                getLocalTimeZone()
              ),
            range.end
              .toDate(
                getLocalTimeZone()
              )
          )}

  );
}

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';

<MyDateRangePicker
  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';

<MyDateRangePicker
  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';

<MyDateRangePicker
  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';

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

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

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

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

  return (
    <>
      <MyDateRangePicker
        label="Date and time range"
        granularity="second"
        value={date}
        onChange={setDate}
      />
      <MyDateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        granularity="day"
        value={date}
        onChange={setDate}
      />
    </>
  );
}

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';

<MyDateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  granularity="second" />
<MyDateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  placeholderValue={now('America/New_York')}
  granularity="second" />
import {now} from '@internationalized/date';

<MyDateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  granularity="second" />
<MyDateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  placeholderValue={now('America/New_York')}
  granularity="second" />
import {now} from '@internationalized/date';

<MyDateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  granularity="second"
/>
<MyDateRangePicker
  label="Date range"
  placeholderValue={now(
    'America/New_York'
  )}
  granularity="second"
/>

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 I18nProvider 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 {I18nProvider} from 'react-aria';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] = React.useState(null);
  return (
    <I18nProvider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
      <MyDateRangePicker label="Date range" value={range} onChange={setRange} />
      <p>Start date: {range?.start.toString()}</p>
      <p>End date: {range?.end.toString()}</p>
    </I18nProvider>
  );
}
import {I18nProvider} from 'react-aria';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] = React.useState(null);
  return (
    <I18nProvider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
      <MyDateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        value={range}
        onChange={setRange}
      />
      <p>Start date: {range?.start.toString()}</p>
      <p>End date: {range?.end.toString()}</p>
    </I18nProvider>
  );
}
import {I18nProvider} from 'react-aria';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] =
    React.useState(null);
  return (
    <I18nProvider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
      <MyDateRangePicker
        label="Date range"
        value={range}
        onChange={setRange}
      />
      <p>
        Start date:{' '}
        {range?.start
          .toString()}
      </p>
      <p>
        End date:{' '}
        {range?.end
          .toString()}
      </p>
    </I18nProvider>
  );
}

Minimum and maximum values#

The minValue and maxValue props can also be used to perform builtin validation. This prevents the user from selecting dates outside the valid range in the calendar, and marks the date fields as invalid using ARIA. DateRangePicker also validates that the end date is after the start date. You should implement a visual indication that the date range picker is invalid as well.

This example only accepts dates after today.

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

<MyDateRangePicker
  label="Trip dates"
  minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
  defaultValue={{
    start: parseDate('2022-02-03'),
    end: parseDate('2022-05-03')
  }} />
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';

<MyDateRangePicker
  label="Trip dates"
  minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
  defaultValue={{
    start: parseDate('2022-02-03'),
    end: parseDate('2022-05-03')
  }} />
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';

<MyDateRangePicker
  label="Trip dates"
  minValue={today(
    getLocalTimeZone()
  )}
  defaultValue={{
    start: parseDate(
      '2022-02-03'
    ),
    end: parseDate(
      '2022-05-03'
    )
  }}
/>

Unavailable dates#

DateRangePicker supports marking certain dates as unavailable. These dates remain focusable with the keyboard in the calendar so that navigation is consistent, but cannot be selected by the user. 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 {useLocale} from 'react-aria';
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 })]
  ];

  let { locale } = useLocale();
  let isDateUnavailable = (date) =>
    disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
      date.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 && date.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
    );
  let [value, setValue] = React.useState(null);
  let isInvalid = value &&
    disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
      value.end.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 &&
      value.start.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
    );

  return (
    <MyDateRangePicker
      label="Trip dates"
      minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
      isDateUnavailable={isDateUnavailable}
      value={value}
      onChange={setValue}
      validationState={isInvalid ? 'invalid' : null}
    />
  );
}
import {useLocale} from 'react-aria';
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 })]
  ];

  let { locale } = useLocale();
  let isDateUnavailable = (date) =>
    disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
      date.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 &&
      date.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
    );
  let [value, setValue] = React.useState(null);
  let isInvalid = value &&
    disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
      value.end.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 &&
      value.start.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
    );

  return (
    <MyDateRangePicker
      label="Trip dates"
      minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
      isDateUnavailable={isDateUnavailable}
      value={value}
      onChange={setValue}
      validationState={isInvalid ? 'invalid' : null}
    />
  );
}
import {useLocale} from 'react-aria';
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
      })
    ]
  ];

  let { locale } =
    useLocale();
  let isDateUnavailable =
    (date) =>
      disabledRanges
        .some((
          interval
        ) =>
          date.compare(
              interval[0]
            ) >= 0 &&
          date.compare(
              interval[1]
            ) <= 0
        );
  let [value, setValue] =
    React.useState(null);
  let isInvalid =
    value &&
    disabledRanges.some(
      (interval) =>
        value.end
            .compare(
              interval[0]
            ) >= 0 &&
        value.start
            .compare(
              interval[1]
            ) <= 0
    );

  return (
    <MyDateRangePicker
      label="Trip dates"
      minValue={today(
        getLocalTimeZone()
      )}
      isDateUnavailable={isDateUnavailable}
      value={value}
      onChange={setValue}
      validationState={isInvalid
        ? 'invalid'
        : null}
    />
  );
}

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';

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

  return (
    <MyDateRangePicker
      label="Time off request"
      isDateUnavailable={(date) => isWeekend(date, locale)}
      allowsNonContiguousRanges
    />
  );
}
import {isWeekend} from '@internationalized/date';

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

  return (
    <MyDateRangePicker
      label="Time off request"
      isDateUnavailable={(date) => isWeekend(date, locale)}
      allowsNonContiguousRanges
    />
  );
}
import {isWeekend} from '@internationalized/date';

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

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

Help text#

The description slot can be used to associate additional help text with a date range picker. Additionally, the errorMessage slot can be used to help the user fix a validation error. It should be combined with the validationState prop to semantically mark the date range picker as invalid for assistive technologies.

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

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

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] = React.useState({
    start: today(getLocalTimeZone()),
    end: today(getLocalTimeZone()).add({ weeks: 1, days: 3 })
  });
  let isInvalid = range.end.compare(range.start) > 7;

  return (
    <MyDateRangePicker
      label="Trip dates"
      value={range}
      onChange={setRange}
      validationState={isInvalid ? 'invalid' : 'valid'}
      description={isInvalid ? null : 'Select your vacation dates'}
      errorMessage={isInvalid ? 'Maximum stay duration is 1 week' : null} />
  );
}
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] = React.useState({
    start: today(getLocalTimeZone()),
    end: today(getLocalTimeZone()).add({
      weeks: 1,
      days: 3
    })
  });
  let isInvalid = range.end.compare(range.start) > 7;

  return (
    <MyDateRangePicker
      label="Trip dates"
      value={range}
      onChange={setRange}
      validationState={isInvalid ? 'invalid' : 'valid'}
      description={isInvalid
        ? null
        : 'Select your vacation dates'}
      errorMessage={isInvalid
        ? 'Maximum stay duration is 1 week'
        : null}
    />
  );
}
import {today} from '@internationalized/date';

function Example() {
  let [range, setRange] =
    React.useState({
      start: today(
        getLocalTimeZone()
      ),
      end: today(
        getLocalTimeZone()
      ).add({
        weeks: 1,
        days: 3
      })
    });
  let isInvalid =
    range.end.compare(
      range.start
    ) > 7;

  return (
    <MyDateRangePicker
      label="Trip dates"
      value={range}
      onChange={setRange}
      validationState={isInvalid
        ? 'invalid'
        : 'valid'}
      description={isInvalid
        ? null
        : 'Select your vacation dates'}
      errorMessage={isInvalid
        ? 'Maximum stay duration is 1 week'
        : null}
    />
  );
}

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';

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

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

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

Hide time zone#

When ZonedDateTime objects are provided as the value of to 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.

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

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

Advanced customization#


Composition#

If you need to customize one of the components within a DateRangePicker, such as Label or DateSegment, in many cases you can create a wrapper component. This lets you customize the props passed to the component.

function MyDateSegment(props) {
  return <MyDateSegment {...props} className="my-date-segment" />
}
function MyDateSegment(props) {
  return (
    <MyDateSegment {...props} className="my-date-segment" />
  );
}
function MyDateSegment(
  props
) {
  return (
    <MyDateSegment
      {...props}
      className="my-date-segment"
    />
  );
}

Hooks#

If you need to customize things even further, such as accessing internal state or customizing DOM structure, you can drop down to the lower level Hook-based API. DateRangePicker sends props to its child elements via public React contexts for each component. You can use this context to implement replacements for any component, using hooks from react-aria. This allows you to replace only the components you need to customize, and keep using the others.

DateRangePicker uses the following hooks. See the linked documentation for more details.

To replace a component used within a DateRangePicker, create your own component and use the useContextProps hook to merge the local props and ref with the ones sent via context by DateRangePicker. This example shows how you could implement a custom RangeCalendar component that works with DateRangePicker.

import {RangeCalendarContext, useContextProps} from 'react-aria-components';
import {useRangeCalendarState} from 'react-stately';
import {useRangeCalendar} from 'react-aria';

function MyRangeCalendar(props) {
  // Merge local props and ref with props from context.
  let ref = React.useRef();
  [props, ref] = useContextProps(props, ref, CalendarContext);

  // Call useCalendarState and useCalendar.
  let state = useRangeCalendarState({...props});
  let {calendarProps} = useRangeCalendar(props, state, ref);

  // Render stuff
  // ...
}
import {
  RangeCalendarContext,
  useContextProps
} from 'react-aria-components';
import {useRangeCalendarState} from 'react-stately';
import {useRangeCalendar} from 'react-aria';

function MyRangeCalendar(props) {
  // Merge local props and ref with props from context.
  let ref = React.useRef();
  [props, ref] = useContextProps(
    props,
    ref,
    CalendarContext
  );

  // Call useCalendarState and useCalendar.
  let state = useRangeCalendarState({ ...props });
  let { calendarProps } = useRangeCalendar(
    props,
    state,
    ref
  );

  // Render stuff
  // ...
}
import {
  RangeCalendarContext,
  useContextProps
} from 'react-aria-components';
import {useRangeCalendarState} from 'react-stately';
import {useRangeCalendar} from 'react-aria';

function MyRangeCalendar(
  props
) {
  // Merge local props and ref with props from context.
  let ref = React
    .useRef();
  [props, ref] =
    useContextProps(
      props,
      ref,
      CalendarContext
    );

  // Call useCalendarState and useCalendar.
  let state =
    useRangeCalendarState(
      { ...props }
    );
  let { calendarProps } =
    useRangeCalendar(
      props,
      state,
      ref
    );

  // Render stuff
  // ...
}

This also works the other way. If you need to customize DateRangePicker itself, but want to reuse the components it contains, you can do so by providing the necessary contexts. The Provider component is an easier way to send multiple contexts at once. You can look at the DateRangePicker source code for more details on how to set this up.

import {ButtonContext, LabelContext, RangeCalendarContext, useDateRangePicker} from 'react-aria';
import {Provider} from 'react-aria-components';

function MyDateRangePicker(props) {
  // ...
  let ref = useRef(null);
  let {
    labelProps,
    buttonProps,
    calendarProps
    // ...
  } = useDateRangePicker({/* ... */});

  return (
    <Provider
      values={[
        [LabelContext, labelProps],
        [ButtonContext, buttonProps],
        [RangeCalendarContext, calendarProps]
        // ...
      ]}
    >
      {props.children}
    </Provider>
  );
}
import {
  ButtonContext,
  LabelContext,
  RangeCalendarContext,
  useDateRangePicker
} from 'react-aria';
import {Provider} from 'react-aria-components';

function MyDateRangePicker(props) {
  // ...
  let ref = useRef(null);
  let {
    labelProps,
    buttonProps,
    calendarProps
    // ...
  } = useDateRangePicker({/* ... */});

  return (
    <Provider
      values={[
        [LabelContext, labelProps],
        [ButtonContext, buttonProps],
        [RangeCalendarContext, calendarProps]
        // ...
      ]}
    >
      {props.children}
    </Provider>
  );
}
import {
  ButtonContext,
  LabelContext,
  RangeCalendarContext,
  useDateRangePicker
} from 'react-aria';
import {Provider} from 'react-aria-components';

function MyDateRangePicker(
  props
) {
  // ...
  let ref = useRef(null);
  let {
    labelProps,
    buttonProps,
    calendarProps
    // ...
  } = useDateRangePicker(
    {/* ... */}
  );

  return (
    <Provider
      values={[
        [
          LabelContext,
          labelProps
        ],
        [
          ButtonContext,
          buttonProps
        ],
        [
          RangeCalendarContext,
          calendarProps
        ]
        // ...
      ]}
    >
      {props.children}
    </Provider>
  );
}
