Android only month and year picker in material design

Question

Im working on app that needs to input expiration date for credit card but andorid 5.0+ date time picker has only options for picking date with days. Is there any library for that because I cant find any. I also didnt find anything in material design guidelines regarding this.

Thx

Create 2 separate spinner one with months value and other one with at least 25 years values. You can add create array for month and year and inflate it to spinners. — ch3tanz, Sep 18 '15 at 11:05

None of these answers are suitable for material design app... — Dominik Mičuta, Sep 18 '15 at 11:20
no, I used old styled pickers. some material design library with this feature would be great... — Dominik Mičuta, Jan 11 '16 at 07:02
@DominikMičuta i have same issue did you solved? please share — Aditya Vyas-Lakhan, Jun 30 '16 at 11:36
@AdityaVyas-Lakhan No, so far there is no official way and I also didnt find any library. We used old holo style dialog :( — Dominik Mičuta, Jun 30 '16 at 11:51
In layout use standart DatePicker widget. In app logic you need to programatically with reflection remove DAY spinner e.g: like in this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10673842/android-hide-date-field-in-datepickerdialog or there are codes for removing day spinner in this question bellow. — Dominik Mičuta, Jun 30 '16 at 12:12

Went ahead making a modified Date Picker called Simple Date picker ... have used the code similar to Date Picker just to show month and year. You can also provide your own theme to the SimpleDatePickerDialog.

Please try this

        Field f[] = picker.getClass().getDeclaredFields();
    for (Field field : f) {
        if (field.getName().equals("mDayPicker")) {
            field.setAccessible(true);
            Object dayPicker = new Object();
            dayPicker = field.get(picker);
            ((View) dayPicker).setVisibility(View.GONE);
        }
    }
} 
catch (SecurityException e) {
    Log.d("ERROR", e.getMessage());
} 
catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
    Log.d("ERROR", e.getMessage());
} 
catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
    Log.d("ERROR", e.getMessage());
}

you can try this

DatePicker dpDate = (DatePicker) findViewById(R.id.dpDate);

// Initialize Date Picker
int year    = dpDate.getYear();
int month   = dpDate.getMonth();
int day     = dpDate.getDayOfMonth();
dpDate.init(year, month, day, this);

if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) 
        {
            int daySpinnerId = Resources.getSystem().getIdentifier("day", "id", "android");
            if (daySpinnerId != 0) 
            {
                View daySpinner = dpDate.findViewById(daySpinnerId);
                if (daySpinner != null) 
                {
                    daySpinner.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                }
            }
        }

        if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) 
        {
            int monthSpinnerId = Resources.getSystem().getIdentifier("month", "id", "android");
            if (monthSpinnerId != 0) 
            {
                View monthSpinner = dpDate.findViewById(monthSpinnerId);
                if (monthSpinner != null) 
                {
                    monthSpinner.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                }
            }
        }

        if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP) 
        {
            int yearSpinnerId = Resources.getSystem().getIdentifier("year", "id", "android");
            if (yearSpinnerId != 0) 
            {
                View yearSpinner = dpDate.findViewById(yearSpinnerId);
                if (yearSpinner != null) 
                {
                    yearSpinner.setVisibility(View.GONE);
                }
            }
        }

This is solution for non material design date picker but not for material dialog official date picker. — Dominik Mičuta, Sep 18 '15 at 12:42
