This section explains you the steps required to create a simple Calendar and demonstrate the basic usage of the Calendar component.
The below list of dependencies are required to use the Calendar
component in your application.
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-react-calendars
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-react-base
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-base
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-data
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-calendars
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-inputs
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-splitbuttons
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-lists
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-popups
|-- @syncfusion/ej2-buttons
You can use create-react-app
to setup the applications.
To install create-react-app
run the following command.
npm install -g create-react-app
React
sample use following commands.create-react-app quickstart --scripts-version=react-scripts-ts
cd quickstart
All the available Essential JS 2 packages are published in npmjs.com
public registry.
You can choose the component that you want to install. For this application, we are going to use Calendar
component.
To install Calendar component, use the following command
npm install @syncfusion/ej2-react-calendars –save
To render the Calendar component, need to import Calendar and its dependent component’s styles as given below in App.css
.
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-react-calendars/styles/material.css";
Note: If you want to refer the combined component styles, please make use of our CRG
(Custom Resource Generator) in your application.
CalendarComponent
from ej2-react-calendars
package in App.tsx
.[src/App.tsx]
import { CalendarComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-calendars';
import * as React from "react";
import './App.css';
export default class App extends React.Component<{}, {}> {
public render() {
return <CalendarComponent id="calendar" />
}
};
Now run the npm start
command in the console, it will run your application and open the browser window.
npm start
The below examples shows the basic calendar component.
// import the calendarcomponent
import { CalendarComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-calendars';
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
export default class App extends React.Component<{}, {}> {
public render() {
return <CalendarComponent id="calendar" />
}
};
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('element'));
The following example demonstrates how to set the value, min and max dates on initializing the Calendar. Here the Calendar allows to select a date within a range from 9th to 15th in a month of May 2017. To know more about range restriction in Calendar, please refer this page.
// import the calendarcomponent
import { CalendarComponent} from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-calendars';
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
export default class App extends React.Component<{}, {}> {
//initialize the value, min and max
private dateValue: Date = new Date("05/11/2017");
private minDate: Date = new Date("05/09/2017");
private maxDate: Date = new Date("05/15/2017");
public render() {
return <CalendarComponent id="calendar" value={this.dateValue} min={this.minDate} max={this.maxDate} />
}
};
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('element'));
