Timepicker

Bootstrap 5 Timepicker component

Use MDB custom Timepicker component to select time.

Note: Read the API tab to find all available options and advanced customization


Basic example

MDB allows us to automatically initialize a Timepicker when the page is loaded. You have to have a class timepicker in your picker wrapper.


Inline Timepicker with 12h

MDB Timepicker allows you to use a inline version timepicker. Default version is with 12h.


Inline Timepicker with 24h

MDB Timepicker allows you to use a inline version timepicker. You have to add options format24 to true.


Custom Icon

You can set your custom icon to input. If you will add the icon, the main icon from the input will be replaced with yours. You have to add class timepicker-toggle-button to your element with data-mdb-toggle and timepicker-icon to your icon.

With button


With icon


Without icon

MDBTimepicker allows to set input without icon. You can set this with data-mdb-with-icon set to false or with the options withIcon set to false if you are initiate timepicker with js.


Default time

MDB Timepicker allows to initialize a default time in the picker and input. You can set it with option defaultTime. This options accepts strings like:

  • 12:34
  • 12:34 PM
  • 12:34 AM

and also new Date() format like:

  • new Date()
  • new Date().toLocaleTimeString([],{timeStyle: 'short'})

Note: If you are using string with PM/AM, you have to have option format24 set to false otherwise your default time will be formate to 24h. Also if you are using string without PM/AM and you would like have 24h format hour you have to set option format24 to true. If you will only put a string without PM/AM and format24 set to false you are gonna have a timepicker with 12h and format set to AM with default.


Handle input value

If you want handle input value on modal approve, you have to add custom event to selected picker.
