7 Jul 20265 minutes to read

This section briefly explains about how to include Blazor DateRangePicker component in a Blazor WebAssembly App using Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code, and the .NET CLI.

Create a new Blazor WebAssembly (Standalone) App

Create a Blazor WebAssembly App using Visual Studio via Microsoft Templates or the Blazor Extension.

Run the following command to create a new Blazor WebAssembly App.

dotnet new blazorwasm -o BlazorApp
cd BlazorApp

Alternatively, create a Blazor WebAssembly App using Visual Studio Code via Microsoft Templates or the Blazor Extension, or the C# Dev Kit extension.

Run the following command to create a new Blazor WebAssembly App.

dotnet new blazorwasm -o BlazorApp
cd BlazorApp

Install the required Blazor packages

Install the Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars and Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes NuGet packages. All Syncfusion Blazor packages are available on nuget.org. See the NuGet packages topic for details.

  1. Go to Tools → NuGet Package Manager → Manage NuGet Packages for Solution.
  2. Search the required NuGet packages (Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars and Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes) and install them.

Alternatively, you can install the same packages using the Package Manager Console with the following commands.

Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars -Version 34.1.29
Install-Package Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes -Version 34.1.29

Open the terminal and run the following commands.

dotnet add package Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars -v 34.1.29
dotnet add package Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes -v 34.1.29

Open the command prompt and run the following commands.

dotnet add package Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars -v 34.1.29
dotnet add package Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes -v 34.1.29

Add import namespaces

After the packages are installed, open the ~/_Imports.razor file and import the Syncfusion.Blazor and Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars namespaces.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars

Register Blazor service

Register the Blazor service in the Program.cs file of your Blazor WebAssembly App.

....
using Syncfusion.Blazor;
....
builder.Services.AddSyncfusionBlazor();
....

Add stylesheet and script resources

The theme stylesheet and script can be accessed from NuGet through Static Web Assets. Include the stylesheet and the script references in the ~wwwroot/index.html file.

...
<link href="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes/fluent2.css" rel="stylesheet" />
...
<script src="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Core/scripts/syncfusion-blazor.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Add Blazor DateRangePicker component

Add the Blazor DateRangePicker component in the ~/Pages/*.razor (for example, Home.razor) file.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars

<SfDateRangePicker TValue="DateTime?" Placeholder="Choose a Range"></SfDateRangePicker>

Run the application

Press Ctrl+F5 (Windows) or ⌘+F5 (macOS) to launch the application. The Blazor DateRangePicker component will render in your default web browser.

Open the terminal and run the following command.

dotnet run

Open the command prompt and run the following command.

dotnet run
Blazor DateRangePicker Component

Setting the Min and Max

Define the minimum and maximum date range using the Min and Max properties.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Calendars

<SfDateRangePicker TValue="DateTime?" Placeholder="Choose a Range" Min="@MinDate" Max="@MaxDate"></SfDateRangePicker>

@code 
{
    public DateTime MinDate {get;set;} = new DateTime(2017, 01, 05);
    public DateTime MaxDate {get;set;} = new DateTime(2017, 12, 20);
}
