I am using react-datepicker NPM package,
I tried to follow documentation but I was unable to import
registerLocale
and
For dynamic locale imports you could use this code. However, you will get a larger package with dynamic imports:
constructor(props) {
const getLocale = locale => require(`date-fns/locale/${this.props.language}/index.js`)
this.locale = getLocale(this.props.language);
}
And then use
<DatePicker locale={this.locale} />
You don't even need to use registerLocale, just use import variable name ja without quotes :
<DatePicker
dateFormat="yyyy/MM/dd"
selected={this.state.date}
onChange={this.handleChange}
locale=ja
/>
You can also set the default locale for all date picker fields with setDefaultLocale :
constructor (props) {
registerLocale("ja", ja);
setDefaultLocale("ja");
}
Hope this helps.
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import DatePicker, { registerLocale } from "react-datepicker";
import "react-datepicker/dist/react-datepicker.css";
import ja from "date-fns/locale/ja";
registerLocale("ja", ja);
class App extends Component {
constructor(props) {
super(props);
this.state = {
date: new Date()
}
this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this);
}
handleChange(date) {
this.setState({
date
});
}
render() {
return (
<div className="App">
<body>
<DatePicker
dateFormat="yyyy/MM/dd"
selected={this.state.date}
onChange={this.handleChange}
locale='ja'
/>
</body>
</div>
);
}
}
export default App;
I could get the result you wanted. And I tried to make it with moment
library but it didn't work on my code. sorry
For those who don't want to depend on date-fns
module you can define your own localization.
const months = ['Ocak', 'Şubat', 'Mart', 'Nisan', 'Mayıs', 'Haziran', 'Temmuz', 'Ağustos', 'Eylül', 'Ekim', 'Kasım', 'Aralık']
const days = ['Pt', 'Sa', 'Ça', 'Pe', 'Cu', 'Ct', 'Pz']
const locale = {
localize: {
month: n => months[n],
day: n => days[n]
},
formatLong: {}
}
<DatePicker locale={locale} />
In case you want to use a locale, that is not supported by date-fns (and those are quite few), you can do a shim.
const monthsBG = ['Януари', 'Февруари', 'Март', 'Април', 'Май', 'Юни', 'Юли', 'Август', 'Септември', 'Октомври', 'Ноември', 'Декември'];
const daysBG = ['нед', 'пон', 'вт', 'ср', 'четв', 'пет', 'съб'];
registerLocale('bg', {
localize: {
month: n => monthsBG[n],
day: n => daysBG[n]
},
formatLong:{}
});
and then you can use this locale as any other
<DatePicker
locale="bg"
...
/>
First of all make sure you are using the latest version of the plugin (2.0.0).
Then you need to also install the date-fns
module, but for the moment the react-datepicker
is working with the 2.0.0-alpha.23 version.
Then you need to import and register the locale you want and finally add the locale
property to the DatePicker
so (after installing the correct versions)
import DatePicker, { registerLocale } from "react-datepicker";
import el from "date-fns/locale/el"; // the locale you want
registerLocale("el", el); // register it with the name you want
and use it
<DatePicker
locale="el"
...
/>
