Shows a full screen modal dialog containing a Material Design date range picker.
The returned Future resolves to the DateTimeRange selected by the user when the user saves their selection. If the user cancels the dialog, null is returned.
If initialDateRange
is non-null, then it will be used as the initially
selected date range. If it is provided, initialDateRange.start
must be
before or on initialDateRange.end
.
The firstDate
is the earliest allowable date. The lastDate
is the latest
allowable date. Both must be non-null.
If an initial date range is provided, initialDateRange.start
and initialDateRange.end
must both fall between or on firstDate
and
lastDate
. For all of these DateTime values, only their dates are
considered. Their time fields are ignored.
The currentDate
represents the current day (i.e. today). This
date will be highlighted in the day grid. If null, the date of
DateTime.now()
will be used.
An optional initialEntryMode
argument can be used to display the date
picker in the DatePickerEntryMode.calendar (a scrollable calendar month
grid) or DatePickerEntryMode.input (two text input fields) mode.
It defaults to DatePickerEntryMode.calendar and must be non-null.
The following optional string parameters allow you to override the default text used for various parts of the dialog:
helpText
, the label displayed at the top of the dialog.cancelText
, the label on the cancel button for the text input mode.confirmText
,the label on the ok button for the text input mode.saveText
, the label on the save button for the fullscreen calendar mode.errorFormatText
, the message used when an input text isn't in a proper date format.errorInvalidText
, the message used when an input text isn't a selectable date.errorInvalidRangeText
, the message used when the date range is invalid (e.g. start date is after end date).fieldStartHintText
, the text used to prompt the user when no text has been entered in the start field.fieldEndHintText
, the text used to prompt the user when no text has been entered in the end field.fieldStartLabelText
, the label for the start date text input field.fieldEndLabelText
, the label for the end date text input field.
An optional locale
argument can be used to set the locale for the date
picker. It defaults to the ambient locale provided by Localizations.
An optional textDirection
argument can be used to set the text direction
(TextDirection.ltr or TextDirection.rtl) for the date picker. It
defaults to the ambient text direction provided by Directionality. If both
locale
and textDirection
are non-null, textDirection
overrides the
direction chosen for the locale
.
The context
, useRootNavigator
and routeSettings
arguments are passed
to showDialog, the documentation for which discusses how it is used.
context
and useRootNavigator
must be non-null.
The builder
parameter can be used to wrap the dialog widget
to add inherited widgets like Theme.
State Restoration
Using this method will not enable state restoration for the date range picker. In order to enable state restoration for a date range picker, use Navigator.restorablePush or Navigator.restorablePushNamed with ZdsDateRangePickerDialog.
For more information about state restoration, see RestorationManager.
To test state restoration on Android:
- Turn on "Don't keep activities", which destroys the Android activity as soon as the user leaves it. This option should become available when Developer Options are turned on for the device.
- Run the code sample on an Android device.
- Create some in-memory state in the app on the phone, e.g. by navigating to a different screen.
- Background the Flutter app, then return to it. It will restart and restore its state.
To test state restoration on iOS:
- Open
ios/Runner.xcworkspace/
in Xcode. - (iOS 14+ only): Switch to build in profile or release mode, as launching an app from the home screen is not supported in debug mode.
- Press the Play button in Xcode to build and run the app.
- Create some in-memory state in the app on the phone, e.g. by navigating to a different screen.
- Background the app on the phone, e.g. by going back to the home screen.
- Press the Stop button in Xcode to terminate the app while running in the background.
- Open the app again on the phone (not via Xcode). It will restart and restore its state.
{@tool sample --template=stateful_widget_restoration_material}
This sample demonstrates how to create a restorable Material date range picker. This is accomplished by enabling state restoration by specifying MaterialApp.restorationScopeId and using Navigator.restorablePush to push ZdsDateRangePickerDialog when the button is tapped.
final RestorableDateTimeN _startDate = RestorableDateTimeN(DateTime(2021, 1, 1));
final RestorableDateTimeN _endDate = RestorableDateTimeN(DateTime(2021, 1, 5));

onComplete: _selectDateRange,
onPresent: (NavigatorState navigator, Object? arguments) {
return navigator.restorablePush(
_dateRangePickerRoute,
arguments: <String, dynamic>{
'initialStartDate': _startDate.value?.millisecondsSinceEpoch,
'initialEndDate': _endDate.value?.millisecondsSinceEpoch,
}
);
},
);
void _selectDateRange(DateTimeRange? newSelectedDate) {
if (newSelectedDate != null) {
setState(() {
_startDate.value = newSelectedDate.start;
_endDate.value = newSelectedDate.end;
});
}
}
@override

registerForRestoration(_startDate, 'start_date');
registerForRestoration(_endDate, 'end_date');
