date_field

Description:

date field

Welcome to the Date Field package! 📅 #

This package provides two widgets, DateTimeField and DateTimeFormField, which allow users to pick a
date and/or time from an input field. You can customize the appearance of the widgets using the
decoration argument, and specify whether to ask for a date, a time, or both using the mode
parameter. You can further customize the picker by configuring dialog properties.

Run flutter pub get to install the package.


Initialize your systems locale. If not, users might see AM/PM even when
they configured their system to use 24h format. Add the following code to your main function:
import 'package:intl/intl_standalone.dart' if (dart.library.html) 'package:intl/intl_browser.dart';

Future<void> main() async {
WidgetsFlutterBinding.ensureInitialized();
await findSystemLocale();
runApp(const MyApp());
}

Import the package in your Dart code.
import 'package:date_field/date_field.dart';
copied to clipboard


Use the Widget. Example:
DateTimeFormField(
decoration: const InputDecoration(
labelText: 'Enter Date',
),
firstDate: DateTime.now().add(const Duration(days: 10)),
lastDate: DateTime.now().add(const Duration(days: 40)),
initialPickerDateTime: DateTime.now().add(const Duration(days: 20)),
onChanged: (DateTime? value) {
selectedDate = value;
},
),
copied to clipboard


To display the adaptive dialog without the field widget, you can directly use the showAdaptiveDateTimePicker.
final DateTime? result = await showAdaptiveDateTimePicker(
context: context,
mode: DateTimeFieldPickerMode.dateAndTime,
);
copied to clipboard


Note that you can also use the showMaterialDateTimePicker and showCupertinoDateTimePicker functions to show
the Material and Cupertino pickers directly.
