Is it possible to make a new release including this merge request? Package hasn't received any release since April 2018 while there are a lot of open merge requests with good code.

Maybe unpopular opinion:
If you don't have the time to maintain the library, please try to find someone who does.

I really agree with you and I will be really grateful if I can do that or at least be a part of that

This looks like a dead project without maintainer :( I think it is time to either:

1. look for an alternative, e.g. https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-datetimepicker
2. fork this repo and publish it under new name in npm registry

@mieszko4 at our company we went to the react-native-community version as well. Way better maintained.

did you do it? If yes, then please share the new npm-package.

This looks like it might be a good and maintained alternative, that solves the same issue as this project originally did: wrapping the core ios and android datepicker components from react native in a nice crossplatform api:
https://github.com/mmazzarolo/react-native-modal-datetime-picker

It is wrapping the extracted versions in https://github.com/react-native-community/datetimepicker/issues rather than the deprecated ones that ship with react native core that this library does.

[YahiaBadr]

I made this package https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-native-datepicker-yaya only to solve the warning of the componentWillReceiveProps. Everyone is welcomed to use it instead of this package.
