The DatePicker widget allows selecting selecting a date value using a text box and the browser’s date-picking utility.


Discover more on using widgets to add interactivity to your applications in the how-to guides on interactivity. Alternatively, learn how to set up callbacks and (JS-)links between parameters or how to use them as part of declarative UIs with Param.

Aliases#

DatePicker uses a browser-dependent calendar widget to select the date:


date_picker = pmui.DatePicker(label='Date Picker', value=dt.datetime(2024, 4, 1, 11, 37))

pn.Column(date_picker, height=400)







            
            
To ensure it is visible in a notebook we have placed it in a Column with a fixed height.


DatePicker.value returns a datetime type that can be read out or set like other widgets:


date_picker.value





datetime.date(2024, 4, 1)








Controls#


The DatePicker widget exposes a number of options which can be changed from both Python and Javascript. Try out the effect of these parameters interactively:


pn.Row(date_picker.controls(jslink=False), date_picker)
