import DatePicker from 'primevue/datepicker';
DatePicker is used with the v-model property for two-way value binding.
<DatePicker v-model="date" />
DatePicker integrates seamlessly with the PrimeVue Forms library.
<Form v-slot="$form" :resolver="resolver" :initialValues="initialValues" @submit="onFormSubmit" class="flex flex-col gap-4">
<div class="flex flex-col gap-1">
<DatePicker name="date" fluid />
<Message v-if="$form.date?.invalid" severity="error" size="small" variant="simple">{{ $form.date.error?.message }}</Message>
</div>
<Button type="submit" severity="secondary" label="Submit" />
</Form>
Default date format is mm/dd/yy which can be customized using the dateFormat property. Following options can be a part of the format.
<DatePicker v-model="date" dateFormat="dd/mm/yy" />
Locale for different languages and formats is defined globally, refer to the PrimeVue Locale configuration for more information.

<DatePicker v-model="buttondisplay" showIcon fluid :showOnFocus="false" />
<DatePicker v-model="icondisplay" showIcon fluid iconDisplay="input" />
<DatePicker v-model="templatedisplay" showIcon fluid iconDisplay="input" timeOnly>
<template #inputicon="slotProps">
<i class="pi pi-clock" @click="slotProps.clickCallback" />
</template>
</DatePicker>
Boundaries for the permitted dates that can be entered are defined with minDate and maxDate properties.
<DatePicker v-model="date" :minDate="minDate" :maxDate="maxDate" :manualInput="false" />
In order to choose multiple dates, set selectionMode as multiple. In this mode, the value binding should be an array.
<DatePicker v-model="dates" selectionMode="multiple" :manualInput="false" />
A range of dates can be selected by defining selectionMode as range, in this case the bound value would be an array with two values where first date is the start of the range and second date is the end.
<DatePicker v-model="dates" selectionMode="range" :manualInput="false" />
When showButtonBar is present, today and clear buttons are displayed at the footer.
<DatePicker v-model="date" showButtonBar />
A time picker is displayed when showTime is enabled where 12/24 hour format is configured with hourFormat property. In case, only time needs to be selected, add timeOnly to hide the date section.
<DatePicker id="datepicker-12h" v-model="datetime12h" showTime hourFormat="12" fluid />
<DatePicker id="datepicker-24h" v-model="datetime24h" showTime hourFormat="24" fluid />
<DatePicker id="datepicker-timeonly" v-model="time" timeOnly fluid />
Month only picker is enabled by specifying view as month in addition to a suitable dateFormat.
<DatePicker v-model="date" view="month" dateFormat="mm/yy" />
Specifying view as year in addition to a suitable dateFormat enables the year picker.
<DatePicker v-model="date" view="year" dateFormat="yy" />
Number of months to display is configured with the numberOfMonths property.
<DatePicker v-model="date" :numberOfMonths="2" />
Custom content can be placed inside date cells with the date slot that takes a Date as a parameter.

<template #date="slotProps">
<strong v-if="slotProps.date.day > 10 && slotProps.date.day < 15" style="text-decoration: line-through">{{ slotProps.date.day }}</strong>

The input element has combobox role in addition to aria-autocomplete as "none", aria-haspopup as "dialog" and aria-expanded attributes. The relation between the input and the popup is created with aria-controls attribute that refers to the id of the popup.
The optional datepicker button requires includes aria-haspopup, aria-expanded for states along with aria-controls to define the relation between the popup and the button. The value to read is retrieved from the chooseDate key of the aria property from the locale API. This label is also used for the aria-label of the popup as well. When there is a value selected, it is formatted and appended to the label to be able to notify users about the current value.

The navigation buttons at the header has an aria-label retrieved from the prevYear, nextYear, prevMonth, nextMonth, prevDecade and nextDecade keys of the locale aria API. Similarly month picker button uses the chooseMonth and year picker button uses the chooseYear keys.

Each date cell has an aria-label referring to the full date value. Buttons at the footer utilize their readable labels as aria-label as well. Selected date also receives the aria-selected attribute.
Timepicker spinner buttons get their labels for aria-label from the aria locale API using the prevHour, nextHour, prevMinute, nextMinute, prevSecond, nextSecond, am and pm keys.
