namestring-

Name attribute of the input element.

onChangefunc-

Callback fired when the value changes.

  • value The new value.
  • context The context containing the validation result of the current value.
onClearfunc-

Callback fired when the clear button is clicked.

onErrorfunc-

Callback fired when the error associated to the current value changes.

Signature:function(error: TError, value: TValue) => void
  • error The new error.
  • value The value associated to the error.
onSelectedSectionsChangefunc-

Callback fired when the selected sections change.

Signature:function(newValue: FieldSelectedSections) => void
  • newValue The new selected sections.
readOnlyboolfalse

It prevents the user from changing the value of the field (not from interacting with the field).

referenceDateobjectThe closest valid date using the validation props, except callbacks such as `shouldDisableDate`. Value is rounded to the most granular section used.

The date used to generate a part of the new value that is not present in the format when both value and defaultValue are empty. For example, on time fields it will be used to determine the date to set.

-

The currently selected sections. This prop accepts four formats: 1. If a number is provided, the section at this index will be selected. 2. If a string of type FieldSectionType is provided, the first section with that name will be selected. 3. If "all" is provided, all the sections will be selected. 4. If null is provided, no section will be selected. If not provided, the selected sections will be handled internally.

shouldDisableDatefunc-

Disable specific date.
Warning: This function can be called multiple times (for example when rendering date calendar, checking if focus can be moved to a certain date, etc.). Expensive computations can impact performance.

Signature:function(day: TDate) => boolean
  • day The date to test.

Returns: If true the date will be disabled.

shouldDisableMonthfunc-

Disable specific month.

Signature:function(month: TDate) => boolean
  • month The month to test.

Returns: If true, the month will be disabled.

shouldDisableTimefunc-

Disable specific time.

Signature:function(value: TDate, view: TimeView) => boolean
  • value The value to check.
  • view The clock type of the timeValue.

Returns: If true the time will be disabled.

shouldDisableYearfunc-

Disable specific year.

Signature:function(year: TDate) => boolean
  • year The year to test.

Returns: If true, the year will be disabled.

shouldRespectLeadingZerosbool`false`

If true, the format will respect the leading zeroes (e.g: on dayjs, the format M/D/YYYY will render 8/16/2018) If false, the format will always add leading zeroes (e.g: on dayjs, the format M/D/YYYY will render 08/16/2018)
Warning n°1: Luxon is not able to respect the leading zeroes when using macro tokens (e.g: "DD"), so shouldRespectLeadingZeros={true} might lead to inconsistencies when using AdapterLuxon.
Warning n°2: When shouldRespectLeadingZeros={true}, the field will add an invisible character on the sections containing a single digit to make sure onChange is fired. If you need to get the clean value from the input, you can remove this character using input.value.replace(/\u200e/g, '').
Warning n°3: When used in strict mode, dayjs and moment require to respect the leading zeros. This mean that when using shouldRespectLeadingZeros={false}, if you retrieve the value directly from the input (not listening to onChange) and your format contains tokens without leading zeros, the value will not be parsed by your library.
