Value#
A DatePicker
displays a placeholder by default. An initial, uncontrolled value can be provided to the DatePicker
using the defaultValue
prop. Alternatively, a controlled value can be provided using the value
prop.
Date values are provided using objects in the @internationalized/date package. This library handles correct international date manipulation across calendars, time zones, and other localization concerns. DatePicker
supports values of the following types:
CalendarDate
– a date without any time components. May be parsed from a string representation using theparseDate
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 theparseDateTime
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 aZonedDateTime
.ZonedDateTime
– a date with a time in a specific time zone. May be parsed from a string representation using theparseZonedDateTime
,parseAbsolute
, orparseAbsoluteToLocal
functions. Use this type to represent an exact moment in time at a particular location on Earth.
import {parseDate} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let [value, setValue] = React.useState(parseDate('2020-02-03'));
return (
<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
<DatePicker
label="Date (uncontrolled)"
defaultValue={parseDate('2020-02-03')} />
<DatePicker
label="Date (controlled)"
value={value}
onChange={setValue} />
</Flex>
);
}
import {parseDate} from '@internationalized/date';
function Example() {
let [value, setValue] = React.useState(
parseDate('2020-02-03')
);
return (
<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
<DatePicker
label="Date (uncontrolled)"
defaultValue={parseDate('2020-02-03')}
/>
<DatePicker
label="Date (controlled)"
value={value}
onChange={setValue}
/>
</Flex>
);
}
import {parseDate} from '@internationalized/date';

defaultValue={parseDate(
'2020-02-03'
)}
/>
<DatePicker
label="Date (controlled)"
value={value}
onChange={setValue}
/>
</Flex>
);
}
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.
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 forparseAbsolute
, and accepts the same formats.
import {parseZonedDateTime} from '@internationalized/date';
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
defaultValue={parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]')}
/>
import {parseZonedDateTime} from '@internationalized/date';
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
defaultValue={parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
)}
/>
import {parseZonedDateTime} from '@internationalized/date';
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
defaultValue={parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-07T00:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
)}
/>
DatePicker
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';
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
defaultValue={parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-11-07T07:45:00Z')}
/>
import {parseAbsoluteToLocal} from '@internationalized/date';
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
defaultValue={parseAbsoluteToLocal(
'2021-11-07T07:45:00Z'
)}
/>
import {parseAbsoluteToLocal} from '@internationalized/date';
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
defaultValue={parseAbsoluteToLocal(
'2021-11-07T07:45:00Z'
)}
/>
Granularity#
The granularity
prop allows you to control the smallest unit that is displayed by a DatePicker
. 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 DatePickers are synchronized with the same value, but display different granularities.
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] = React.useState(
parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-07T18:45:22Z')
);
return (
<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
<DatePicker
label="Date and time"
granularity="second"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
<DatePicker
label="Date"
granularity="day"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
</Flex>
);
}
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] = React.useState(
parseAbsoluteToLocal('2021-04-07T18:45:22Z')
);
return (
<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
<DatePicker
label="Date and time"
granularity="second"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
<DatePicker
label="Date"
granularity="day"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
</Flex>
);
}
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] =
React.useState(
parseAbsoluteToLocal(
'2021-04-07T18:45:22Z'
)
);
return (
<Flex
gap="size-150"
wrap
>
<DatePicker
label="Date and time"
granularity="second"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
<DatePicker
label="Date"
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>
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
granularity="second" />
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
placeholderValue={now('America/New_York')}
granularity="second" />
</Flex>
import {now} from '@internationalized/date';
<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
granularity="second" />
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
placeholderValue={now('America/New_York')}
granularity="second" />
</Flex>
import {now} from '@internationalized/date';
<Flex
gap="size-150"
wrap
>
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
granularity="second"
/>
<DatePicker
label="Event date"
placeholderValue={now(
'America/New_York'
)}
granularity="second"
/>
</Flex>
International calendars#
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 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 DatePicker
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 [date, setDate] = React.useState(null);
return (
<Provider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
<DatePicker label="Date" value={date} onChange={setDate} />
<p>Selected date: {date?.toString()}</p>
</Provider>
);
}
import {Provider} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] = React.useState(null);
return (
<Provider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
<DatePicker
label="Date"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
<p>Selected date: {date?.toString()}</p>
</Provider>
);
}
import {Provider} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] =
React.useState(null);
return (
<Provider locale="hi-IN-u-ca-indian">
<DatePicker
label="Date"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
<p>
Selected date:
{' '}
{date
?.toString()}
</p>
</Provider>
);
}
Labeling#
A visual label should be provided for the DatePicker
using the label
prop. If the DatePicker
is required, the isRequired
and necessityIndicator
props can be used to show a required state.
<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
<DatePicker label="Birth date" />
<DatePicker label="Birth date" isRequired necessityIndicator="icon" />
<DatePicker label="Birth date" isRequired necessityIndicator="label" />
<DatePicker label="Birth date" necessityIndicator="label" />
</Flex>
<Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
<DatePicker label="Birth date" />
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
isRequired
necessityIndicator="icon"
/>
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
isRequired
necessityIndicator="label"
/>
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
necessityIndicator="label"
/>
</Flex>
<Flex
gap="size-150"
wrap
>
<DatePicker label="Birth date" />
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
isRequired
necessityIndicator="icon"
/>
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
isRequired
necessityIndicator="label"
/>
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
necessityIndicator="label"
/>
</Flex>
Accessibility#
If a visible label isn't specified, an aria-label
must be provided to the DatePicker
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 DatePicker
, 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#
DatePicker
accepts an onChange
prop which is triggered whenever the date is edited by the user. The example below uses onChange
to update a separate element with a formatted version of the date in the user's locale and local time zone. This is done by converting the date to a native JavaScript Date
object to pass to the formatter.
import {getLocalTimeZone} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useDateFormatter} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] = React.useState(parseDate('1985-07-03'));
let formatter = useDateFormatter({dateStyle: 'full'});
return (
<>
<DatePicker label="Birth date" value={date} onChange={setDate} />
<p>Selected date: {formatter.format(date.toDate(getLocalTimeZone()))}</p>
</>
);
}
import {getLocalTimeZone} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useDateFormatter} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] = React.useState(
parseDate('1985-07-03')
);
let formatter = useDateFormatter({ dateStyle: 'full' });
return (
<>
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
<p>
Selected date:{' '}
{formatter.format(date.toDate(getLocalTimeZone()))}
</p>
</>
);
}
import {getLocalTimeZone} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useDateFormatter} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] =
React.useState(
parseDate(
'1985-07-03'
)
);
let formatter =
useDateFormatter({
dateStyle: 'full'
});
return (
<>
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
/>
<p>
Selected date:
{' '}
{formatter
.format(
date.toDate(
getLocalTimeZone()
)
)}
</p>
</>
);
}
Validation#
DatePicker
can display a validation state to communicate to the user whether the current value is valid or invalid. Implement your own validation logic in your app and pass either "valid"
or "invalid"
via the validationState
prop. The errorMessage
prop can be used to communicate errors to the user.
This example validates that the selected date is a weekday and not a weekend according to the current locale.
import {today, isWeekend} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useLocale} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] = React.useState(today(getLocalTimeZone()));
let {locale} = useLocale();
return (
<DatePicker
label="Appointment date"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
validationState={isWeekend(date, locale) ? 'invalid' : 'valid'}
description="Select a weekday"
errorMessage="We are closed on weekends" />
);
}
import {isWeekend, today} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useLocale} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] = React.useState(
today(getLocalTimeZone())
);
let { locale } = useLocale();
return (
<DatePicker
label="Appointment date"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
validationState={isWeekend(date, locale)
? 'invalid'
: 'valid'}
description="Select a weekday"
errorMessage="We are closed on weekends"
/>
);
}
import {
isWeekend,
today
} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useLocale} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
function Example() {
let [date, setDate] =
React.useState(
today(
getLocalTimeZone()
)
);
let { locale } =
useLocale();
return (
<DatePicker
label="Appointment date"
value={date}
onChange={setDate}
validationState={isWeekend(
date,
locale
)
? 'invalid'
: 'valid'}
description="Select a weekday"
errorMessage="We are closed on weekends"
/>
);
}
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 displays an invalid state if the user enters an invalid date into the date field.
This example only accepts dates after today.
<DatePicker
label="Appointment date"
minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
defaultValue={parseDate('2022-02-03')} />
<DatePicker
label="Appointment date"
minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
defaultValue={parseDate('2022-02-03')} />
<DatePicker
label="Appointment date"
minValue={today(
getLocalTimeZone()
)}
defaultValue={parseDate(
'2022-02-03'
)}
/>
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. The isDateUnavailable
prop accepts a callback that is called to evaluate whether a date is unavailable.
This example includes multiple unavailable date ranges, e.g. dates when no appointments are available. In addition, all weekends are unavailable. The minValue
prop is also used to prevent selecting dates before today.
import {isWeekend, today} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useLocale} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
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) =>
isWeekend(date, locale) ||
disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
date.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 && date.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
);
return (
<DatePicker
label="Appointment date"
minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
isDateUnavailable={isDateUnavailable}
/>
);
}
import {isWeekend, today} from '@internationalized/date';
import {useLocale} from '@adobe/react-spectrum';
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) =>
isWeekend(date, locale) ||
disabledRanges.some((interval) =>
date.compare(interval[0]) >= 0 &&
date.compare(interval[1]) <= 0
);
return (
<DatePicker
label="Appointment date"
minValue={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
isDateUnavailable={isDateUnavailable}
/>
);
}
import {
isWeekend,
today
} from '@internationalized/date';

],
[
now.add({

],
[
now.add({

})
]
];
let { locale } =
useLocale();
let isDateUnavailable =

Visual options#
Quiet#
<DatePicker label="Birth date" isQuiet />
<DatePicker label="Birth date" isQuiet />
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
isQuiet
/>
Disabled#
<DatePicker label="Birth date" isDisabled />
<DatePicker label="Birth date" isDisabled />
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
isDisabled
/>
Read only#
The isReadOnly
boolean prop makes the DatePicker's value immutable. Unlike isDisabled
, the DatePicker remains focusable.
<DatePicker label="Birth date" value={today(getLocalTimeZone())} isReadOnly />
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
value={today(getLocalTimeZone())}
isReadOnly
/>
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
value={today(
getLocalTimeZone()
)}
isReadOnly
/>
Label alignment and position#
By default, the label is positioned above the DatePicker
. 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 DatePicker
and "end" refers to the right most edge. For right-to-left (RTL) languages, this is flipped.
<DatePicker label="Birth date" labelPosition="side" labelAlign="end" />
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
labelPosition="side"
labelAlign="end"
/>
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
labelPosition="side"
labelAlign="end"
/>
Help text#
Both a description and an error message can be supplied to a DatePicker. 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. See the Validation section above for an example.
DatePicker
also supports displaying the expected date format for the user's locale automatically using the showFormatHelpText
prop.
<DatePicker label="Birth date" showFormatHelpText />
<DatePicker label="Birth date" showFormatHelpText />
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
showFormatHelpText
/>
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';
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
placeholderValue={new CalendarDate(1980, 1, 1)}
/>
import {CalendarDate} from '@internationalized/date';
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
placeholderValue={new CalendarDate(1980, 1, 1)}
/>
import {CalendarDate} from '@internationalized/date';
<DatePicker
label="Birth date"
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.
<DatePicker label="Appointment date" maxVisibleMonths={3} />
<DatePicker label="Appointment date" maxVisibleMonths={3} />
<DatePicker
label="Appointment date"
maxVisibleMonths={3}
/>
Hide time zone#
When a ZonedDateTime
object is provided as the value of a DatePicker
, 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.
<DatePicker
label="Appointment time"
defaultValue={parseZonedDateTime('2022-11-07T10:45[America/Los_Angeles]')}
hideTimeZone />
<DatePicker
label="Appointment time"
defaultValue={parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-07T10:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
)}
hideTimeZone
/>
<DatePicker
label="Appointment time"
defaultValue={parseZonedDateTime(
'2022-11-07T10:45[America/Los_Angeles]'
)}
hideTimeZone
/>
Hour cycle#
By default, DatePicker
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 DatePicker
to use 24-hour time, regardless of the locale.
<DatePicker
label="Appointment time"
granularity="minute"
hourCycle={24} />
<DatePicker
label="Appointment time"
granularity="minute"
hourCycle={24} />
<DatePicker
label="Appointment time"
granularity="minute"
hourCycle={24}
/>
