Description

A no-frills calendar widget that lets you bring your own styling. This component takes a start date, an end date, and a renderDay function, and then gets out of the way.

Example

Installation

npm install --save tt-react-calendar

Usage

import Calendar from 'tt-react-calendar';

function renderDay(day) {
  return <div className="day">{day.format('dd')}</div>
}

function renderMonthHeader(firstDay, format) {
  // Don't render month headers for 2016, for some reason.
  if (firstDay.year() === 2017) {
    return firstDay.format(format);
  }
}

function MyComponent() {
  return (
    <Calendar
      className="calendar-container"
      dayAbbrevs={['Su', 'M', 'T', 'W', 'Th', 'F', 'Sa']}
      dayHeaderClassName="calendar-day-header"
      dayHeaderStyle={Calendar.DayHeaderStyles.InFirstMonth}
      firstRenderedDay="2016-12-25"
      lastRenderedDay="2017-02-12"
      monthClassName="calendar-month"
      monthHeaderFormat="MMMM YYYY"
      monthHeaderClassName="calendar-month-header"
      renderDay={renderDay}
      renderMonthHeader={renderMonthHeader}
      weekClassName="calendar-week"
    />
  );
}

And somewhere in your stylesheet build process…

@import 'tt-react-calendar/dist/styles.css';

Browser Support

This is still a very young project, so it hasn’t been actively tested in cross browser environments. That being said, given the technologies being used, it should work in any browser that supports some form of flexbox.
