Controlling the Popup State

To manage the popup state of the DateTimePicker, set the displayed state of the component through its show property.

The following example demonstrates how to control the state of the date-time selector of the DateTimePicker upon display.

class App extends React.Component {
    constructor(props){
        super(props)

        this.state = {
            show: false
        }
    }
    handleClick = (event) => {
        this.setState({ show: !this.state.show })
    }
    render() {
        return(
            <div className="row">
                <div className="col-xs-12 col-md-6 example-col">
                    <p>Controlled DateTimePicker</p>
                    <DateTimePicker
                        show={this.state.show}
                    />&nbsp;
                    <button className="k-button k-primary" onClick={this.handleClick}>Toggle</button>
                </div>
                <div className="col-xs-12 col-md-6 example-col">
                    <p>Always shown</p>
                    <DateTimePicker
                        show={true}
                    />
                </div>
            </div>
        )
    }
}
ReactDOM.render(
    <App />,
    document.querySelector('my-app')
);
