Preface

The component depends on the @internationalized/date package, which solves a lot of the problems that come with working with dates and times in JavaScript.

We highly recommend reading through the documentation for the package to get a solid feel for how it works, and you'll need to install it in your project to use the date-related components.

Installation

Install the date package.

$ npm add @internationalized/date

Install the component from your command line.

$ npm add reka-ui

Anatomy

Import all parts and piece them together.

vue

<script setup>
import {
  DateFieldInput,
  DateFieldRoot,
} from 'reka-ui'
</script>

<template>
  <DateFieldRoot>
    <DateFieldInput />
  </DateFieldRoot>
</template>

API Reference

Prop	Default	Type
`as`	`'div'`	`AsTag \| Component` The element or component this component should render as. Can be overwrite by `asChild`
`asChild`		`boolean` Change the default rendered element for the one passed as a child, merging their props and behavior. Read our Composition guide for more details.
`defaultPlaceholder`		`DateValue` The default placeholder date
`defaultValue`		`DateValue` The default value for the calendar
`dir`		`'ltr' \| 'rtl'` The reading direction of the date field when applicable. If omitted, inherits globally from `ConfigProvider` or assumes LTR (left-to-right) reading mode.
`disabled`	`false`	`boolean` Whether or not the date field is disabled
`granularity`		`'day' \| 'hour' \| 'minute' \| 'second'` The granularity to use for formatting times. Defaults to day if a CalendarDate is provided, otherwise defaults to minute. The field will render segments for each part of the date up to and including the specified granularity
`hideTimeZone`		`boolean` Whether or not to hide the time zone segment of the field
`hourCycle`		`12 \| 24` The hour cycle used for formatting times. Defaults to the local preference

`name`		`string` The name of the field. Submitted with its owning form as part of a name/value pair.

`required`		`boolean` When `true`, indicates that the user must set the value before the owning form can be submitted.
