Setting format React-Intl FormattedDate

Question

Where does the default format get set for FormattedDate?

Right now my dates are showing the one digit for the month: 3/9/2017

FormattedDate value={new Date('2017-03-09')}

Can this be set in the IntlProvider?

Answer 1

You can set formatting via the format prop:

props: DateTimeFormatOptions & {
    value: any,
    format?: string,
    children?: (formattedDate: string) => ReactElement,
}
