What is Streamlit Datetime Picker?

streamlit-datetime-picker is the input component to use with Streamlit.

Installation

pip install streamlit-datetime-picker

Quickstart

create an example.py file

import streamlit as st
from streamlit_datetime_picker import date_time_picker, date_range_picker

dt = date_time_picker('Date Time Input')
st.write(f"DateTimeInput: {dt}")
(start, end) = date_range_picker()
st.write(f"DateRangeInput: From {start} to {end}")

run streamlit

streamlit run example.py

Helper function

As streamlit rerun the whole python script whenever a component value is changed, thus cannot use datetime.now() directly.
Can make use of the st.session_state to store the current date and time so that the initial value doens't change whenever the page is reloaded.

from datetime import datetime, timedelta

def now() -> datetime:
    if 'now' not in st.session_state:
        st.session_state['now'] = datetime.now().astimezone()
    return st.session_state['now']

def clearNow():
    if 'now' in st.session_state:
        del st.session_state['now']
