Getting started
npm install @react-native-community/datetimepicker --saveor
yarn add @react-native-community/datetimepickerRN >= 0.60
If you are using RN >= 0.60, only run pod install from the ios directory. Then rebuild your project.
RN < 0.60
For RN < 0.60, you need to link the dependency using react-native link:
react-native link @react-native-community/datetimepickerThen run pod install from the ios directory and rebuild your project.
If this does not work, see Manual installation.
General Usage
import DateTimePicker from '@react-native-community/datetimepicker';or
const DateTimePicker = require('@react-native-community/datetimepicker');Basic usage with state
import React, {useState} from 'react';
import {View, Button, Platform} from 'react-native';
import DateTimePicker from '@react-native-community/datetimepicker';
const App = () => {
const [date, setDate] = useState(new Date(1598051730000));
const [mode, setMode] = useState('date');
const [show, setShow] = useState(false);
const onChange = (event, selectedDate) => {
const currentDate = selectedDate || date;
setDate(currentDate);
setShow(Platform.OS === 'ios' ? true : false);
};
const showMode = currentMode => {
setShow(true);
setMode(currentMode);
};
const showDatepicker = () => {
showMode('date');
};
const showTimepicker = () => {
showMode('time');
};
return (
<View>
<View>
<Button onPress={showDatepicker} title="Show date picker!" />
</View>
<View>
<Button onPress={showTimepicker} title="Show time picker!" />
</View>
{show && (
<DateTimePicker
testID="dateTimePicker"
timeZoneOffsetInMinutes={0}
value={date}
mode={mode}
is24Hour={true}
display="default"
onChange={onChange}
/>
)}
</View>
);
};
export default App;Props
Please note that this library currently exposes functionality from
UIDatePickeron iOS and DatePickerDialog + TimePickerDialog on Android.These native classes offer only limited configuration, while there are dozens of possible options you as a developer may need. It follows that if your requirement is not supported by the backing native views, this libray will not be able to implement your requirement. When you open an issue with a feature request, please document if (or how) the feature can be implemented using the aforementioned native views. If those views do not support what you need, such feature requests will be closed as not actionable.

setDate = (event, date) => {}
<RNDateTimePicker onChange={this.setDate} />value (required)
Defines the date or time value used in the component.
<RNDateTimePicker value={new Date()} />maximumDate (optional)
Defines the maximum date that can be selected.
<RNDateTimePicker maximumDate={new Date(2300, 10, 20)} />minimumDate (optional)
Defines the minimum date that can be selected.
<RNDateTimePicker minimumDate={new Date(1950, 0, 1)} />timeZoneOffsetInMinutes (optional, iOS only)
Allows changing of the timeZone of the date picker. By default it uses the device's time zone.
// GMT+1
<RNDateTimePicker timeZoneOffsetInMinutes={60} />locale (optional, iOS only)
Allows changing of the locale of the component. By default it uses the device's locale.
<RNDateTimePicker locale="es-ES" />is24Hour (optional, Android only)
Allows changing of the time picker to a 24 hour format.
<RNDateTimePicker is24Hour={true} />neutralButtonLabel (optional, Android only)

<RNDateTimePicker minuteInterval={10} />Migration from the older components
RNDateTimePicker is the new common name used to represent the old versions of iOS and Android.
On Android, open picker modals will update the selected date and/or time if the prop value changes. For example, if a HOC holding state, updates the value prop. Previously the component used to close the modal and render a new one on consecutive calls.

Manual installation
iOS
- Install CocoaPods, here the installation guide.
- Inside the iOS folder run
pod init, this will create the initialpodfile. Update your
podfile to look like the following ( Remember to replaceMyAppwith your target name ):# Allowed sources source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git' target 'MyApp' do # As we use Swift, ensure that `use_frameworks` is enabled. use_frameworks! # Specific iOS platform we are targetting platform :ios, '8.0' # Point to the installed version pod 'RNDateTimePicker', :path => '../node_modules/@react-native-community/datetimepicker/RNDateTimePicker.podspec' # React/React-Native specific pods pod 'React', :path => '../node_modules/react-native', :subspecs => [ 'Core', 'CxxBridge', # Include this for RN >= 0.47 'DevSupport', # Include this to enable In-App Devmenu if RN >= 0.43 'RCTText', 'RCTNetwork', 'RCTWebSocket', # Needed for debugging ] # Explicitly include Yoga if you are using RN >= 0.42.0 pod 'yoga', :path => '../node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/yoga' # Third party deps podspec link pod 'DoubleConversion', :podspec => '../node_modules/react-native/third-party-podspecs/DoubleConversion.podspec' pod 'glog', :podspec => '../node_modules/react-native/third-party-podspecs/glog.podspec' pod 'Folly', :podspec => '../node_modules/react-native/third-party-podspecs/Folly.podspec' endRun

android/settings.gradle:include ':@react-native-community_datetimepicker' project(':@react-native-community_datetimepicker').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, '../node_modules/@react-native-community/datetimepicker/android')Add the compile line to the dependencies in
android/app/build.gradle:dependencies { ... implementation project(':@react-native-community_datetimepicker') }Add the import and link the package in
MainApplication.java:+ import com.reactcommunity.rndatetimepicker.RNDateTimePickerPackage; public class MainApplication extends Application implements ReactApplication { @Override protected List<ReactPackage> getPackages() { @SuppressWarnings("UnnecessaryLocalVariable") List<ReactPackage> packages = new PackageList(this).getPackages(); // Packages that cannot be autolinked yet can be added manually here, for example: + packages.add(new RNDateTimePickerPackage()); return packages; } }
