Date and Time

Date

Confinity's Entity App supports DateTime and DateTimeOffset for inputting dates, times and both together.

Use the AddDateAndTime method to configure a input.

private void EventFormConfig(IFormLayoutBuilder<Event> form)
{
    form.AddTab(tab =>
    {
        tab.AddDateAndTime(e => e.EventStart);
    });
}

Not all types are supported or recommended for DateTime and DateTimeOffset, see below for details.

⁎ For saving a point in time it is recommended to use DateTimeOffset to ensure correct handling in different timezones.

DateOnly / TimeOnly

Use DateOnly and TimeOnly when when not the whole Date is used.

private void EventFormConfig(IFormLayoutBuilder<Pet> form)
{
    form.AddTab(tab =>
    {
        tab.AddDateOnly(p => p.DateOfBirth);

        tab.AddTimeOnly(p => p.WakesUpAt);
    });
}
