# DatePicker React component used to display a Date Picker. --- ## Example Usage ```jsx import { Component } from 'react'; import DatePicker from 'calypso/components/date-picker'; export default class extends Component { // ... onSelectDay( date ) { this.setState( { date: date } ); } render() { const events = [ { title: '1 other post scheduled', date: new Date( '2015-10-15 10:30' ), type: 'scheduled', icon: 'time', }, { title: 'Happy birthday Damian!', date: new Date( '2015-07-18 15:00' ), socialIcon: 'path', }, ]; return ( ); } } ``` --- ## DatePicker ### Props `initialMonth` - **optional** Date object that defines the month of the calendar. Default is `now`. `selectedDay` - **optional** Moment instance to select the current day. `timeReference` - **optional** Moment instance used to adjust the time when a day is selected. `events` - **optional** Array of events. `className` - **optional** Add a custom class property. `onSelectDay` - **optional** Called when day is selected by user. `onMonthChange` - **optional** Called when month is changed by user. `locale` - **optional** String representing the current locale slug (eg: `en`). Note that the default component `export`ed is already wrapped in the `localize` HOC which automatically sets this prop for you. Previously this prop was an object of utility overides. This has been moved to a dedicated `localUtils` prop (see below). `localeUtils` - **optional** Object of [locale utility _overides_](http://react-day-picker.js.org/api/LocaleUtils) which are merged with the default utilities passed into the `react-day-picker` library. Previously this prop was named `locale`, but was moved to its own dedicated prop for API consistency with the React Day Picker library. ---
