To select or input a date.

## When To Use

By clicking the input box, you can select a date from a popup calendar.

## API

There are five kinds of picker:

- DatePicker
- DatePicker\[picker="month"]
- DatePicker\[picker="week"]
- DatePicker\[picker="year"]
- DatePicker\[picker="quarter"]
- RangePicker

### Localization

The default locale is en-US, if you need to use other languages, recommend to use internationalized components provided by us at the entrance. Look at: [ConfigProvider](/components/config-provider/).

If there are special needs (only modifying single component language), Please use the property: local. Example: [default](https://github.com/vueComponent/ant-design-vue/blob/main/components/date-picker/locale/example.json).

```html
<template>
  <a-date-picker v-model:value="value" :locale="locale" />
</template>
<script>
  import locale from 'ant-design-vue/es/date-picker/locale/zh_CN';
  import { defineComponent } from 'vue';
  export default defineComponent({
    setup() {
      return {
        locale,
        value: null,
      };
    },
  });
</script>
```

```html
<template>
  <a-config-provider :locale="locale">
    <a-date-picker v-model:value="value" />
  </a-config-provider>
</template>
<script>
  // The default locale is en-US, if you want to use other locale, just set locale in entry file globally.
  import dayjs from 'dayjs';
  import 'dayjs/locale/zh-cn';
  import locale from 'ant-design-vue/es/date-picker/locale/zh_CN';
  import { defineComponent } from 'vue';
  dayjs.locale('zh-cn');
  export default defineComponent({
    setup() {
      return {
        value: dayjs('2015-01-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD')
        dayjs,
        locale
      };
    },
  });

## FAQ

### How to use DatePicker with customize date library（like moment.js \| dayjs \| date-fns）？

Please refer [replace date](/docs/vue/replace-date)

### Why config dayjs.locale globally not work?

DatePicker default set `locale` as `en` in v4. You can config DatePicker `locale` prop or [ConfigProvider `locale`](/components/config-provider) prop instead.
