#react-datepicker

Datepicker component for applications based on Facebook React library.

##Usage Standalone datepicker element. It can perform action if date is selected. Parameters are optional. For best functionality, DatePicker needs to be wrapped in component which sets new date on onChangeDate event. An example of such wrapper component could be DatepickerInput.

var callback = function(date) {
  alert('new selected date is: '+date);
}

<DatePicker date={new Date()} onChangeDate={callback} show={true} />

This library contains own datepicker integration with input element. All parameters are optional. Parameter beforeUpdate has to be function which returns string. This string will be set as value of input field before date change.

var returnDate = function(date) {return date}; // this callback will be called before input field update. You can use it for example for date formatting as is shown in example/index.html
<DatePickerInput date={new Date()} beforeUpdate={returnDate} />

minified javascript and css are located in directory src/build
