DateTimePicker control

This control allows you to select dates from a calendar and optionally the time of day using dropdown controls. You can configure the control to use 12 or 24-hour clock.

Here are some examples of the control:

DateTime Picker 12-hour clock

DateTime Picker 24-hour clock

DateTime Picker Date Only

DateTime Picker No Seconds

DateTime Picker Dropdowns for Time Part

How to use this control in your solutions

• Check that you installed the @pnp/spfx-controls-react dependency. Check out the getting started page for more information about installing the dependency.
• Import the control into your component. The DateConvention and TimeConvention controls if the time of day controls are shown and the time format used (12 hours/24 hours).

import { DateTimePicker, DateConvention, TimeConvention } from '@pnp/spfx-controls-react/lib/DateTimePicker';

• Use the DateTimePicker control in your code as follows, either as an uncontrolled or a controlled component:

// Uncontrolled
<DateTimePicker label="DateTime Picker - 12h"
                dateConvention={DateConvention.DateTime}
                timeConvention={TimeConvention.Hours12} />

// Controlled
<DateTimePicker label="DateTime Picker - 24h"
                dateConvention={DateConvention.DateTime}
                timeConvention={TimeConvention.Hours24}
                value={this.state.date}
                onChange={this.handleChange} />
