Answer 1

If you want to get the new value (once the user clicks on a new date from DatePicker) pass the event to the method.

class MyComponent extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    this.state = {inputValue: moment(),} // this will set the initial date to "today", 
                                         // you could also put another prop.state value there
    this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this);
  }
  }


  handleChange(value) {
    console.log(value); // this will be a moment date object
    // now you can put this value into state
    this.setState({inputValue: value});
  }

  render(){
    ...
     this.handleChange(event)}
       selected={this.state.inputValue} otherProps={here} />
    ...
  }
};
