How to edit the time picker of material-ui-time-picker?

Question

I have a material-ui-time-picker and I want to control this input, it works well, but I want to edit the time input from the keyboard and not when I click the input on the clock.

My code is :

import React, { Component } from "react";
import { TimePicker } from "material-ui-time-picker";
import { Input as Time, Dialog as Clock } from "@material-ui/core";

openDialog = () => this.setState({ isOpen: true });
  closeDialog = () => this.setState({ isOpen: false });
  handleDialogTimeChange = newValue => {
    const hours = newValue
      .getHours()
      .toString()
      .padStart(2, "0");
    const minutes = newValue
      .getMinutes()
      .toString()
      .padStart(2, "0");
    const textValue = hours + ":" + minutes;
    this.setState({ time: textValue });
  };
  handleKeyboardTimeChange = time => this.setState({ time });
  createDateFromTextValue = value => {
    const splitParts = value.split(":");
    return new Date(1970, 1, 1, splitParts[0], splitParts[1]);
  };
render() {

    return (

      <div>
        <Time
          value={this.state.time}
          onChange={this.handleKeyboardTimeChange}
          endAdornment={
            <InputAdornment position="end">
              <IconButton onClick={this.openDialog}>
                <AccessTime />
              </IconButton>
            </InputAdornment>
          }
          //}
        />
        <Clock maxWidth="xs" open={this.state.isOpen}>
          <TimePicker
            mode="24h"
            value={this.createDateFromTextValue(this.state.time)}
            onChange={this.handleDialogTimeChange}
            autoOk={true}
            cancelLabel=""
            okLabel=""
            placeholder=""
            disableUnderline={true}
          />
        </Clock>
      </div>
    );
  }

My sandbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/vm9wm19p27

When I run it, I get this input, but when I edit his value, the input will be disappeared.

How can I fix it ?

I think the TimeInput component doesn't allow this, but you can write your own component to create the exact behavior you want. Instead of importing TimeInput import { TimePicker } from the package and create a custom component.

This is in no way fool proof but it will give you the basics to continue. Working example: https://codesandbox.io/embed/5l167pzrx

import React, { useState } from "react";
import { Button, Input, InputAdornment, IconButton, Dialog, DialogActions } from '@material-ui/core';
import { TimePicker } from 'material-ui-time-picker';
import AccessTime from '@material-ui/icons/AccessTime';

function CustomDatePicker() {
  const [isOpen, setIsOpen] = useState(false);
  const [value, setValue] = useState('10:10');

  const openDialog = () => setIsOpen(true);
  const closeDialog = () => setIsOpen(false);

  const handleDialogTimeChange = (newValue) => {
    const hours = newValue.getHours().toString().padStart(2, "0");
    const minutes = newValue.getMinutes().toString().padStart(2, "0")
    const textValue = hours + ':' + minutes;
    setValue(textValue);
  }
  const handleKeyboardTimeChange = (event) => setValue(event.target.value);

  const createDateFromTextValue = value => {
    const splitParts = value.split(':');
    return new Date(1970, 1, 1, splitParts[0], splitParts[1]);
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <Input
        value={value}
        onChange={handleKeyboardTimeChange}
        endAdornment={
        <InputAdornment position="end">
          <IconButton onClick={openDialog}>
            <AccessTime />
          </IconButton>
        </InputAdornment>
      }
      />
      <Dialog maxWidth='xs' open={isOpen}>
        <TimePicker mode='24h' value={createDateFromTextValue(value)} onChange={handleDialogTimeChange} />
        <DialogActions>
        <Button onClick={closeDialog} color='primary'>
          Cancel
        </Button>
        <Button onClick={closeDialog} color='primary'>
          Ok
        </Button>
        </DialogActions>
      </Dialog>
    </div>
  )
}

export default CustomDatePicker
