hebrew_date_picker 0.1.1

A Material-style date picker that shows the Hebrew (Jewish) date in every day cell, the Hebrew months in the month title and the full Hebrew date of the selected day.

hebrew_date_picker

A Material-style Flutter date picker that shows the Hebrew (Jewish) date alongside the Gregorian one:

• every day cell shows the Gregorian day and the Hebrew day in letters (e.g. 12 / א׳),
• the month title shows the Gregorian month and the Hebrew months it covers (e.g. September 2026 / אלול–תשרי תשפ״ז),
• the header shows the full Hebrew date of the selected day (e.g. א׳ תשרי תשפ״ז),
• tapping the month title opens a year grid with the Gregorian and the Hebrew years (e.g. 1990 / תש״נ–תשנ״א), so far-away dates are a couple of taps away.

Hebrew dates are calculated with kosher_dart and the calendar grid is built on table_calendar.

Installation

dependencies:
  hebrew_date_picker: ^0.1.1

Usage

As a dialog

import 'package:hebrew_date_picker/hebrew_date_picker.dart';

final DateTime? date = await showHebrewDatePicker(
  context: context,
  initialDate: DateTime.now(),
  firstDate: DateTime(2020),
  lastDate: DateTime(2030),
);

The future completes with the selected date (time stripped), or null if the picker was canceled or dismissed.

As an embedded widget

HebrewDatePicker(
  initialDate: DateTime.now(),
  firstDate: DateTime(2020),
  lastDate: DateTime(2030),
  onConfirm: (date) => print(date),
  onCancel: () => print('canceled'),
  onDateChanged: (date) => print('tapped $date'),
)

Customization

Parameter	Default
dayMode	DayMode.both
initialDatePickerMode	DatePickerMode.day
primaryColor	ColorScheme.primary
secondaryTextColor	ColorScheme.onSurfaceVariant
helpText	MaterialLocalizations.datePickerHelpText
cancelText	MaterialLocalizations.cancelButtonLabel
confirmText	MaterialLocalizations.okButtonLabel
locale	the intl default locale

dayMode controls what each day cell shows:

DayMode	Day cell
both	the Gregorian day with the Hebrew day below it (12 / א׳)
hebrew	only the Hebrew day (א׳)
gregorian	only the Gregorian day (12)

showHebrewDatePicker(
  context: context,
  initialDate: DateTime.now(),
  firstDate: DateTime(2020),
  lastDate: DateTime(2030),
  dayMode: DayMode.hebrew,
);

initialDatePickerMode: DatePickerMode.year opens the picker on the year grid, which suits dates far from today such as a birth date:

showHebrewDatePicker(
  context: context,
  initialDate: DateTime(1990, 1, 1),
  firstDate: DateTime(1900),
  lastDate: DateTime.now(),
  initialDatePickerMode: DatePickerMode.year,
);

locale controls the Gregorian month title and the weekday names. For a locale other than en_US, initialize the date formatting data first, e.g. by adding flutter_localizations to your app or calling initializeDateFormatting() from package:intl/date_symbol_data_local.dart.

Hebrew date helpers

The DateTime extension used by the picker is exported as well:

DateTime(2026, 9, 12).getHebrewDateFormatted(); // א׳ תשרי תשפ״ז
DateTime(2026, 9, 12).getHebrewDayOfMonth();    // א׳
DateTime(2026, 9, 1).getHebrewMonthsOfMonth();  // אלול–תשרי תשפ״ז
DateTime(1990).getHebrewYearsOfYear();          // תש״נ–תשנ״א
