@drskyjs/datepicker v1.3.1

Datepicker Project

The Datepicker component allows users to select a date, built using React and custom hooks to provide full date picking functionality. This component is perfect for integration into forms or user interfaces where precise date input is required.

Prerequisites

This section outlines the necessary tools and environments required to successfully use or contribute to the @drskyjs/datepicker project. Ensure that your development environment meets the following prerequisites: Development Environment

• Node.js: Version 20.x or newer
• npm: Version 10.x or newer

Installation

To use the Datepicker component in your project, start by installing it via npm:

npm install @drskyjs/datepicker

Using the Datepicker Component

function MyComponent() {
  const [date, setDate] = useState('');

  const updateDateState = (newDate) => {
    setDate(newDate);
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <Datepicker date={date} updateDateState={updateDateState} placeholder='Select a date' />
    </div>
  );
}

Using a Ref on the Input Element

If you need to attach a ref directly to the input element of the Datepicker, you should use the DatepickerWithRef component with the innerRef prop as follows:

function MyComponent() {
  const [date, setDate] = useState('');
  const inputRef = useRef(null);

  const updateDateState = (newDate) => {
    setDate(newDate);
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <Datepicker
        date={date}
        updateDateState={updateDateState}
        placeholder='Select a date'
        innerRef={inputRef}
      />
    </div>
  );
}

Props

The Datepicker component accepts the following props for customization:

• date (string): The currently selected date.
• updateDateState (function): Function to update the date state.
• Calendar (component, optional): A custom Calendar component to replace the default one.
• className, id, name, placeholder, pattern, title, required (string, optional): Standard attributes for the date input element.
• innerRef (ref, optional): Reference to pass to the date input component for direct access.

Customizing the Calendar Component

You can pass a custom Calendar component as a prop to Datepicker. Your custom Calendar component should accept the same props as the default Calendar:

type CalendarProps = {
  date: string;
  onClickNewDate: (newDate: string) => void;
};

Exemple :

function DefaultCalendar({ date, onClickNewDate }: CalendarProps) {
  return (
    <Calendar date={date} onClickNewDate={onClickNewDate}>
      <div className={styles.header}>
        <Calendar.YearSelection />
        <Calendar.MonthSelection />
      </div>
      <Calendar.WeekDayLabels />
      <Calendar.Days />
    </Calendar>
  );
}
