A declarative cross-platform react-native datetime-picker.
This library exposes a cross-platform interface for showing the native date-picker and time-picker inside a modal, providing a unified user and developer experience.
Under the hood this library is using react-native-modal for the iOS modal implementation.
Install the library using npm or yarn:
# using npm
$ npm install react-native-modal-datetime-picker --save
# using yarn
$ yarn add react-native-modal-datetime-pickerimport React, { Component } from "react";
import { Button, View } from "react-native";
import DateTimePicker from "react-native-modal-datetime-picker";
export default class DateTimePickerTester extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
isDateTimePickerVisible: false
};
}
showDateTimePicker = () => {
this.setState({ isDateTimePickerVisible: true });
};
hideDateTimePicker = () => {
this.setState({ isDateTimePickerVisible: false });
};
handleDatePicked = date => {
console.log("A date has been picked: ", date);
this.hideDateTimePicker();
};
render() {
return (
<>
<Button title="Show DatePicker" onPress={this.showDateTimePicker} />
<DateTimePicker
isVisible={this.state.isDateTimePickerVisible}
onConfirm={this.handleDatePicked}
onCancel={this.hideDateTimePicker}
/>
</>
);
}

All the DatePickerIOS props are also supported!
Under the hood react-native-modal-datetime-picker uses react-native original DatePickerAndroid, TimePickerAndroid and DatePickerIOS.
Before reporting a bug, try swapping react-native-datetime-picker with react-native original date/time pickers and, if the issue persists, check if it has already been reported as a react-native issue.
Just set the mode prop to time.
You can also display both the datepicker and the timepicker in one step by setting the mode prop to datetime.
If you have both a start date/time and end date/time picker on the same screen, you will need to have showDateTimePicker, hideDateTimePicker, and handleDatePicked functions for both.
showStartDateTimePicker = () =>
this.setState({ startDateTimePickerVisible: true });
showEndDateTimePicker = () => this.setState({ endDateTimePickerVisible: true });
hideStartDateTimePicker = () =>
this.setState({ startDateTimePickerVisible: false });
hideEndDateTimePicker = () =>
this.setState({ endDateTimePickerVisible: false });
handleStartDatePicked = date => {
console.log("A date has been picked: ", date);
this.hideStartDateTimePicker();
};
handleEndDatePicked = date => {
console.log("A date has been picked: ", date);
this.hideEndDateTimePicker();
};This is more a React-Native specific question than a react-native-modal-datetime-picker one.
See issue #29 and #106 for some solutions.
The is24Hour prop is only available on Android but you use a small hack for enabling it on iOS by setting the app's default timezone as en_GB.
To do so, edit your AppDelegate.m file, and add [[UIDatePicker appearance] setLocale:[[NSLocale alloc]initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"en_GB"]]; to application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions
Datepicker can adjust by itself locale (fr_FR, en_GB...) depending user's device locale.
Edit your AppDelegate.m file, and add:
// Force DatePicker locale to current language (for: 24h or 12h format, full day names etc...)
NSString *currentLanguage = [[NSLocale preferredLanguages] firstObject];
[[UIDatePicker appearance] setLocale:[[NSLocale alloc]initWithLocaleIdentifier:currentLanguage]];See issue #216 for a possible workaround.
