Summary: Currently, The **DatePickerAndroid** component opens the native date picker with default mode. We can't able to change the mode via configurations. To support android **[date-picker mode](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/DatePicker.html)**, existing component needs to be changed. **For Android >= 5.0**, The DatePickerDialog doesn't provide the default method to change the mode of a date picker. So I have added custom theme which will support two kinds of **mode('spinner','calendar')** ref:https://developer.android.com/reference/android/R.attr.html#datePickerStyle. **For Android < 5.0,** The DatePickerDialog provides the default method to change the mode of a date picker. ref:https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/DatePicker.html#setCalendarViewShown(boolean). With the help of **Build.VERSION.SDK_INT** I have done the above functionality with limited lines of code changes and also I have added the example to UIExplorer.

UIExplorer
The UIExplorer is a sample app that showcases React Native views and modules.
Running this app
Before running the app, make sure you ran:
git clone https://github.com/facebook/react-native.git
cd react-native
npm install
Running on iOS
Mac OS and Xcode are required.
- Open
Examples/UIExplorer/UIExplorer.xcodeproj
in Xcode - Hit the Run button
See Running on device if you want to use a physical device.
Running on Android
You'll need to have all the prerequisites (SDK, NDK) for Building React Native installed.
Start an Android emulator (Genymotion is recommended).
cd react-native
./gradlew :Examples:UIExplorer:android:app:installDebug
./packager/packager.sh
Note: Building for the first time can take a while.
Open the UIExplorer app in your emulator.
See Running on Device in case you want to use a physical device.
Running with Buck
Follow the same setup as running with gradle.
Install Buck from here.
Run the following commands from the react-native folder:
./gradlew :ReactAndroid:packageReactNdkLibsForBuck
buck fetch uiexplorer
buck install -r uiexplorer
./packager/packager.sh
Note: The native libs are still built using gradle. Full build with buck is coming soon(tm).
Built from source
Building the app on both iOS and Android means building the React Native framework from source. This way you're running the latest native and JS code the way you see it in your clone of the github repo.
This is different from apps created using react-native init
which have a dependency on a specific version of React Native JS and native code, declared in a package.json
file (and build.gradle
for Android apps).
