Date / Time pickers
Date pickers and Time pickers allow selecting a single value from a pre-determined set.
- On mobile, pickers are best suited for display in a confirmation dialog.
- For inline display, such as on a form, consider using compact controls such as segmented dropdown buttons.
Setup
You need to provide a date-library that is used by the pickers by setting the dateAdapter
to an adapter of your choosing.
We currently support 4 different date-libraries:
First you have to install the adapter package for the date-library you want to use:
// date-fns
npm install @date-io/date-fns
// or for Day.js
npm install -s @date-io/dayjs
// or for Luxon
npm install -s @date-io/luxon
// or for Moment.js
npm install @date-io/moment
Then you have to set the dateAdapter
prop of the LocalizationProvider
accordingly:
// date-fns
import DateAdapter from '@mui/lab/AdapterDateFns';
// or for Day.js
import DateAdapter from '@mui/lab/AdapterDayjs';
// or for Luxon
import DateAdapter from '@mui/lab/AdapterLuxon';
// or for Moment.js
import DateAdapter from '@mui/lab/AdapterMoment';
function App({ children }) {
return (
<LocalizationProvider dateAdapter={DateAdapter}>{children}</LocalizationProvider>
);
}
Native pickers
⚠️ Native input controls support by browsers isn't perfect.
Native date (type="date"
), time (type="time"
) and date&time (type="datetime-local"
) pickers.
