  <div class="rdp-header">
    <div class="rdp-header-previous-wrapper"/>
    <div class="rdp-header-pick-month-wrapper">
      <!-- if pickMonthElement = 'default' -->

Deeper customizing

Customize styling directly trough CSS.

You can also customize reactstrap-date-picker using CSS, trough element's id or class attributes.

reactstrap-date-picker renders several elements, all contained within a reactstrap InputGroup. Such elements will have its unique id attribute, plus reactstrap-date-picker custom class names (prefixed by rdp-*).

The rendered DOM structure seems like this:

  <div class="input-group rdp-input-group" id="rdp-input-group-SUFFIX">
    <input class="form-control rdp-form-control" id="props.formControl.id or rdp-form-control-SUFFIX" />
    <div class="rdp-overlay">
      <div>
        <div class="rdp-popover">
          <div class="popover">
            <div class="popover-inner">
              <div class="popover-header">
                <div class="rdp-header">
                  <div class="rdp-header-previous-wrapper"/>
                  <div class="rdp-header-pick-month-wrapper">
                    <!-- if pickMonthElement = 'default' -->
                    <div class="rdp-header-pick-month-default">
                      <div class="rdp-header-pick-month-default-month"/>
                      <div class="rdp-header-pick-month-default-year"/>
                    </div>
                  </div>
                  <div class="rdp-header-next-wrapper"/>
                </div>
              </div>
              <div class="popover-body">
                <table class="rdp-calendar">
                </table>
              </div>
            </div>
            <span class="arrow">
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
    <input class="rdp-hidden" id="props.id or rdp-hidden-SUFFIX" />
    <div class="input-group-text rdp-addon">
    </div>
  </div>

This SUFFIX is:

props.name
if props.name is not passed, then use props.id
if props.id is not passed, then take a global counter of active reactstrap-date-picker instances

So, the idea is, depending on your needs:

if you don't need handle ids at all, reactstrap-date-picker will render unique id with no problem
if you need a basic id usage, for example accessing the reactstrap-date-picker's value from the DOM, then you just have to pass props.id and get the value from the element with that id
if you will perform more complex operations, then use props.name or props.id, and pay attention to the previous DOM structure and the SUFFIX presences
