DateTimePicker
The <DateTimePicker />
component gives you an easy-to-use cross platform datetime picker leveraging DatePickerAndroid on Android and DatePickerIOS on iOS using an unified API.
- Integrates well in forms as a themable TextInput-like button
- Properly unified API and casted results (aligned on iOS).
- Supports an UTC-mode for tz-proofing the data.
This component is an alias to <DatePicker mode="datetime" />

Usage
Setup dependencies
Since this components uses a backdrop, you need to wrap your application with a <BackdropProvider />
component. You usually want to wrap it as high as possible in your tree so that the backdrop properly covers the whole screen.
// App.jsx
import React from 'react';
import BackdropProvider from '@mgcrea/react-native-backdrop-provider';
const App: FunctionComponent = () => {
return (
<BackdropProvider>
<RootNavigator />
</BackdropProvider>
);
};
export default App;
Basic
The basic API is relatively close to a regular TextInput
// MyComponent.jsx
import React from 'react';
import {Button} from 'react-native';
import {BackdropContext} from '@mgcrea/react-native-backdrop-provider';
const MyComponent = () => {
const [date, setDate] = useState(new Date());
return (
<View>
<Text style={{color: 'white', marginBottom: 12}}>Value: {time.toISOString()}</Text>
<DateTimePicker title="Pick a date" value={date} onChange={setDate} />
</View>
);
};
export default MyComponent;
