Can we make it possible to select year in DateRangePicker #1769

Closed IgorTurko closed 4 years ago

IgorTurko commented 4 years ago

Hi guys,

I am start using DateRangePicker and its great. Thanks a lot for this. I wanted to ask can we add year selector to the top. The same like in DatePicker. image

For example sometimes I have quite long ranges and its annoying to click <<back 30 times. So what I would suggest is to add year somewhere here: image

Or maybe its a workaround with renderInput props?

Br, Igor

@oliviertassinari what do you think? As for me, I think that the implementation of date range picker with year selection requires too many efforts.

Nobody of Airbnb, booking.com, or google flights have year selection for range. But I suppose its because of business value (you're probably not looking for booking flight for 2030). But probably it can be a real case... e.g. in analytics

@IgorTurko why do you need it?

I have some statistics from the year 2018 lets say. And that means I need to select this date twice for the start and for the end.

@dmtrKovalenko agree, I don't think that the date range picker should support it. Even the existing paid UI libraries don't. Right now, end-users can work around the issue with the textbox.

Also, the usage of two date pickers could be a good tradeoff.
