React Calendar Props
See Also
accessKey
The value of this property will be passed to the accesskey
attribute of the HTML element that underlies the UI component.
activeStateEnabled
The UI component switches to the active state when users press down the primary mouse button. When this property is set to true, the CSS rules for the active state apply. You can change these rules to customize the component.
Use this property when you display the component on a platform whose guidelines include the active state change for UI components.
cellComponent
An alias for the cellTemplate property specified in React. Accepts a custom component. Refer to Using a Custom Component for more information.
cellRender
An alias for the cellTemplate property specified in React. Accepts a rendering function. Refer to Using a Rendering Function for more information.
cellTemplate
If a cell is a week number, the date
field value is undefined
.

dateSerializationFormat
Date-time serialization involves date-time value conversion into a string format for storage or transmission. To ensure proper format detection, specify this property.
Use LDML patterns to pass custom format strings to this property.
For instance, you can specify the following patterns:
"yyyy-MM-dd"
A date."yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss"
Local date and time."yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ"
Date and time in UTC."yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssx"
,"yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssxx"
,"yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssxxx"
Date and time with a timezone.
You can use this property only if you do not specify the initial value. dateSerializationFormat is calculated automatically if you pass a value in the initial configuration.
If you specify this property, the value will be a string, not a Date object.
If you use API to change the value, make sure that the value has the same format that you specified in this property.
This property takes effect only if the forceIsoDateParsing field is set to true in the global configuration object.

disabledDates
This property accepts an array of dates:
jQuery
$(function() { $("#calendarContainer").dxCalendar({ // ... disabledDates: [ new Date("07/1/2017"), new Date("07/2/2017"), new Date("07/3/2017") ] }); });
Angular
<dx-calendar ... [disabledDates]="disabledDates"> </dx-calendar>
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', templateUrl: './app.component.html', styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] }) export class AppComponent { disabledDates: Date[] = [ new Date("07/1/2017"), new Date("07/2/2017"), new Date("07/3/2017") ]; }
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; import { DxCalendarModule } from 'devextreme-angular'; @NgModule({ declarations: [ AppComponent ], imports: [ BrowserModule, DxCalendarModule ], providers: [ ], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { }
Vue
<template> <DxCalendar ... :disabled-dates="disabledDates" /> </template> <script> import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import DxCalendar from 'devextreme-vue/calendar'; export default { components: { DxCalendar }, data() { return { disabledDates: [ new Date("07/1/2017"), new Date("07/2/2017"), new Date("07/3/2017") ] } } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import Calendar from 'devextreme-react/calendar'; class App extends React.Component { constructor() { this.disabledDates = [ new Date("07/1/2017"), new Date("07/2/2017"), new Date("07/3/2017") ]; } render() { return ( <Calendar ... disabledDates={this.disabledDates} /> ); } } export default App;
Alternatively, pass a function to disabledDates. This function should define the rules that determine whether the checked date is disabled. A separate set of rules should target every view individually.
jQuery
$(function() { $("#calendarContainer").dxCalendar({ // ... disabledDates: function(args) { const dayOfWeek = args.date.getDay(); const month = args.date.getMonth(); const isWeekend = args.view === "month" && (dayOfWeek === 0 || dayOfWeek === 6 ); const isMarch = (args.view === "year" || args.view === "month") && month === 2; return isWeekend || isMarch; } }); });
Angular
<dx-calendar ... [disabledDates]="disableDates"> </dx-calendar>
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', templateUrl: './app.component.html', styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] }) export class AppComponent { disableDates(args) { const dayOfWeek = args.date.getDay(); const month = args.date.getMonth(); const isWeekend = args.view === "month" && (dayOfWeek === 0 || dayOfWeek === 6 ); const isMarch = (args.view === "year" || args.view === "month") && month === 2; return isWeekend || isMarch; } }
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; import { DxCalendarModule } from 'devextreme-angular'; @NgModule({ declarations: [ AppComponent ], imports: [ BrowserModule, DxCalendarModule ], providers: [ ], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { }
Vue
<template> <DxCalendar ... :disabled-dates="disableDates" /> </template> <script> import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import DxCalendar from 'devextreme-vue/calendar'; export default { components: { DxCalendar }, methods: { disableDates(args) { const dayOfWeek = args.date.getDay(); const month = args.date.getMonth(); const isWeekend = args.view === "month" && (dayOfWeek === 0 || dayOfWeek === 6 ); const isMarch = (args.view === "year" || args.view === "month") && month === 2; return isWeekend || isMarch; } } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import Calendar from 'devextreme-react/calendar'; class App extends React.Component { disableDates(args) { const dayOfWeek = args.date.getDay(); const month = args.date.getMonth(); const isWeekend = args.view === "month" && (dayOfWeek === 0 || dayOfWeek === 6 ); const isMarch = (args.view === "year" || args.view === "month") && month === 2; return isWeekend || isMarch; } render() { return ( <Calendar ... disabledDates={this.disableDates} /> ); } } export default App;
In cases of 'multiple' and 'range' selection modes, the behavior of disabled dates in Calendar is the following:
If you specify the value property programmatically, disabled dates are selected in the values array.
If you use UI to change selection (clicks on dates or weeks, the Enter key), you cannot select disabled dates in 'multiple' mode. In 'range' mode, disabled dates cannot start or end a range, but can be included in the middle.

elementAttr
Specifies the global attributes to be attached to the UI component's container element.
jQuery
$(function(){ $("#calendarContainer").dxCalendar({ // ... elementAttr: { id: "elementId", class: "class-name" } }); });

<dx-calendar ... [elementAttr]="{ id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' }"> </dx-calendar>
import { DxCalendarModule } from "devextreme-angular"; // ... export class AppComponent { // ... } @NgModule({ imports: [ // ... DxCalendarModule ], // ... })
Vue
<template> <DxCalendar ... :element-attr="calendarAttributes"> </DxCalendar> </template> <script> import DxCalendar from 'devextreme-vue/calendar'; export default { components: { DxCalendar }, data() { return { calendarAttributes: { id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' } } } } </script>
React
import React from 'react'; import Calendar from 'devextreme-react/calendar'; class App extends React.Component { calendarAttributes = { id: 'elementId', class: 'class-name' } render() { return ( <Calendar ... elementAttr={this.calendarAttributes}> </Calendar> ); } } export default App;

Angular
import { Component, ViewChild } from '@angular/core'; import { DxCalendarComponent, DxButtonModule } from 'devextreme-angular'; import notify from 'devextreme/ui/notify'; @Component({ selector: 'app-root', templateUrl: './app.component.html', styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'] }) export class AppComponent { @ViewChild('calendarRef', { static: false }) calendar: DxCalendarComponent; onClick () { if (this.calendar.instance.option('isDirty')) { notify("Do not forget to save changes", "warning", 500); } } }
<dx-calendar ... #calendarRef > </dx-calendar> <dx-button ... (onClick)="onClick($event)" > </dx-button>
Vue
<template> <DxCalendar ... :ref="calendarRef" > </DxCalendar> <DxButton ... @click="onClick" /> </template> <script> import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css'; import DxCalendar from 'devextreme-vue/calendar'; import DxButton from 'devextreme-vue/button'; import notify from 'devextreme/ui/notify'; export default { components: { DxCalendar, DxButton }, data() { return { calendarRef } }, methods: { onClick () { if (this.calendar.option('isDirty')) { notify("Do not forget to save changes", "warning", 500); } } }, computed: { calendar: function() { return this.$refs[calendarRef].instance; } } } </script>

attribute of the HTML element that underlies the UI component.
validationError
Information on the broken validation rule. Contains the first item from the validationErrors array.
validationMessageMode
Specifies how the message about the validation rules that are not satisfied by this editor's value is displayed.
validationMessagePosition
Specifies the position of a validation message relative to the component. The validation message describes the validation rules that this component's value does not satisfy.
The following example positions a validation message at the component's right:
jQuery
$(function() { $("#calendarContainer").dxCalendar({ // ... validationMessagePosition: 'right' }).dxValidator({ validationRules: [{ type: 'required', message: 'Required', }], }); });
Angular
<dx-calendar ... validationMessagePosition="right"> <dx-validator> <dxi-validation-rule type="required" message="Required" > </dxi-validation-rule> </dx-validator> </dx-calendar>
Vue
<template> <DxCalendar ... validation-message-position="right" > <DxValidator> <DxRequiredRule message="Required" /> </DxValidator> </DxCalendar> </template> <script> // ... </script>
React
import React from 'react'; // ... function App() { return ( <Calendar ... validationMessagePosition="right" > <Validator> <RequiredRule message="Required" /> </Validator> </Calendar> ); }; export default App;
validationStatus
The following table illustrates the validation status indicators:
validationStatus | Indicator |
---|---|
"pending" |
|
"valid" |
|
"invalid" |
When you assign "invalid" to validationStatus, you can also use the validationErrors array to set an error message as shown below:
jQuery
$(function() { const calendar = $("#calendarContainer").dxCalendar({ // ... }).dxCalendar("instance"); function setInvalidStatus(message) { calendar.option({ validationStatus: "invalid", validationErrors: [{ message: message }] }); } });
Angular
<dx-calendar [validationStatus]="validationStatus" [validationErrors]="validationErrors"> </dx-calendar>
// ... export class AppComponent { validationStatus: string = "valid"; validationErrors: any; // ... setInvalidStatus(message) { this.validationStatus = "invalid"; this.validationErrors = [{ message: message }]; } }
Vue
<template> <DxCalendar ... :validation-status="validationStatus" :validation-errors="validationErrors" /> </template> <script> // ... export default { // ... data() { return { validationStatus: "valid", validationErrors: [] } }, methods: { setInvalidStatus(message) { this.validationStatus = "invalid"; this.validationErrors = [{ message: message }]; } } } </script>
React
import React, { useState } from 'react'; // ... function App() { const [validationStatus, setValidationStatus] = useState("valid"); const [validationErrors, setValidationErrors] = useState([]); const setInvalidStatus = message => { setValidationStatus("invalid"); setValidationErrors([{ message: message }]); } return ( <Calendar validationStatus={validationStatus} validationErrors={validationErrors} /> ); }; export default App;
value
You can use the following date formats:
Date
Specifies the date directly.Number
Specifies the date with a timestamp (total milliseconds since 1970/01/01).String
Specifies the date with a string value. The UI component supports the following formats of a date string:- "yyyy-MM-dd" (for example, "2017-03-06")
- "yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss" (for example, "2017-03-27T16:54:48")
- "yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ" (for example, "2017-03-27T13:55:41Z")
- "yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssx" (for example, "2017-03-27T16:54:10+03")
Array of the formats mentioned before
Available only for 'multiple' and 'range' selection modes. The array includes all selected dates.
If the UI component value is changed by a user, the new value is saved in the same format as the initial value.
weekNumberRule
Specifies a week number calculation rule.
This property can take on one of the following values:
firstDay
The first week of a year is the week that contains January 1.firstFourDays
The first week of a year is the week that starts on one of the first four weekdays: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. This rule is defined by the ISO 8601 standard. If the first week of the year begins on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, this week is considered the last week of the previous year.fullWeek
The first week of a year is the week that begins with a day that matches the firstDayOfWeek option value.auto
(default)
The week calculation rule depends on the locale. If a week starts on Monday, thefirstFourDays
rule is applied. Otherwise, thefirstDay
rule is in effect.
If you want to implement your own week number calculation rule, use the cellTemplate function:
jQuery
$(function() { let lastDateOfWeek; function getWeekNumber(date, firstDayOfWeek) { // Implement your own week calculation logic } function getCellTemplate(data) { if (data.view === 'month') { if (!data.date) { cssClass = 'week-number'; data.text = getWeekNumber(lastDateOfWeek, 0).toString(); } else { lastDateOfWeek = data.date; } } return `<span>${data.text}</span>`; } $('#calendar-container').dxCalendar({ value: new Date(2000, 0, 1), showWeekNumbers: true, cellTemplate: getCellTemplate }); });
Angular
<dx-calendar [value]="currentValue" [showWeekNumbers]="true" (cellTemplate)="custom" > <span *dxTemplate="let cell of 'custom'" [ngClass]="getCellCssClass(cell)" > {{ cell.text }} </span> </dx-calendar>
// ... export class AppComponent { lastDateOfWeek: Number; currentValue: Date = new Date(2000, 0, 1); getWeekNumber(date, firstDayOfWeek) { // Implement your own week calculation logic } getCellCssClass({ date, view, text }) { let cssClass = ''; if (view === 'month') { if (!date) { cssClass = 'week-number'; text = getWeekNumber(this.lastDateOfWeek, 0).toString(); } else { this.lastDateOfWeek = date; } } return cssClass; } }
Vue
<template> <DxCalendar :value="currentValue" :show-week-numbers="true" cell-template="custom" > <template #custom="{ data: cell }"> <span :class="getCellCssClass(cell)"> {{ cell.text }} </span> </template> </DxCalendar> </template> <script> // ... function getWeekNumber(date, firstDayOfWeek) { // Implement your own week calculation logic } export default { // ... data() { return { currentValue: new Date(2000, 0, 1), lastDateOfWeek: 0 } } methods: { getCellCssClass({ date, view, text }) { let cssClass = ''; if (view === 'month') { if (!date) { cssClass = 'week-number'; text = getWeekNumber(this.lastDateOfWeek, 0).toString(); } else { this.lastDateOfWeek = date; } } return cssClass; } } } </script>
React
// ... let lastDateOfWeek; const currentValue = new Date(2000, 0, 1); const getWeekNumber(date, firstDayOfWeek) { // Implement your own week calculation logic } const getCellCssClass({ date, view, text }) { let cssClass = ''; if (view === 'month') { if (!date) { cssClass = 'week-number'; text = getWeekNumber(lastDateOfWeek, 0).toString(); } else { lastDateOfWeek = date; } } return cssClass; } const customCell = (cell) => { const { text, } = cell; const className = getCellCssClass(cell); return ( <span className={className}> { text } </span> ); } function App() { return ( <Calendar value={currentValue} showWeekNumbers={true} cellRender={customCell} > </Calendar> ); }; export default App;
width
This property accepts a value of one of the following types:
Number
The width in pixels.String
A CSS-accepted measurement of width. For example,"55px"
