Support For 12 Hour AM/PM format?

[forrestbice]

Is there a way to configure the library to use 12 hour format rather than 24 hour format?

[wojtekmaj]

Not at the moment, but that's planned for development and the way is paved for this function to be implemented.

[forrestbice]

@wojtekmaj awesome! Is there an ETA for this?

[wojtekmaj]

I didn't set it, but now that I see demand I'll try to prioritize.

[forrestbice]

Sweet, we'd greatly appreciate it, this library is great!

[forrestbice]

@wojtekmaj any updates on this by chance?

[wojtekmaj]

Hi @forrestbice,
it's in the works :) Firstly it will be introduced in React-Time-Picker, on which React-DateTime-Picker depends. You can track progress in wojtekmaj/react-time-picker#3. It's working so far, but I need to add extensive testing though.

[forrestbice]

Awesome @wojtekmaj! I just subscribed to the issue and associated PR in React-Time-Picker. Really looking forward to this merging and making its way to React-DateTime-Picker 🤘

[wojtekmaj]

Hope you'll still have some patience :) I am doing this only during my free time apart from being employed full time! 😱

[wojtekmaj]

Added in v1.4.0.

Awesome @wojtekmaj, thanks!

Hey!

That's awesome that you allow this feature! How can I enable it?

Thanks!

[wojtekmaj]

@shahar4 It's enabled automatically for locales which use 12 hour clock. Just pass locale prop with a locale which uses 12-hour clock, like en-US.

The reason why locale is used is that locale in fact is so much more than just that. It's also date format, date separators, calendar (Arabic, US, Hebrew, ISO...), workdays, week starting day....
