How to make the react-datepicker bind with redux-form?
I have this redux-form field:
<Field name="due_date" component={props =>
<DatePicker
{...props}
readOnly={true}
selected={this.state.due_date}
value={this.state.due_date}
onChange={this.handleDueDate}
/>
} />
Whenever i submit the redux form does return an empty object not binding the datepicker's value...
my onChange :
handleDueDate(date) {
this.setState({
due_date: moment(date).format('L')
}, () => {
// do I need to dispatch and action here to update the redux-form in state tree?
})
}
you have to make a custom component to validate and use datepicker with redux-form
Try this
const datePicker = ({ input, label, type, className, selected, meta: { touched, error } }) => (
<div>
<div>
<DatePicker {...input}
selected={selected} placeholder={label}
type={type} className={className}
peekNextMonth
showMonthDropdown
showYearDropdown
dropdownMode="select"
/>
{touched && error && <span className="error_field">{error}</span>}
</div>
</div>
)
and then pass props to that custom component
<Field
name="date_of_birth"
component={datePicker}
type="text"
selected={this.state.date_of_birth}
onChange={this.handleChange.bind(this)}
className="form-control"
/>
For future readers, just go to this link: DatePicker in Redux Form
first, I created the component like metioned in link above and just passed the selected prop in it. in my case:
<Field
name="due_date"
component={DatePickerComponent}
selected={this.state.date_of_briefing} />
