Render Error for DatePickerInput component: "Check the render method of 'Month'"

[kalyncoose]

Issue:
DatePickerInput component starts to render but crashes when attempting to render the Month child component inside the 'Calendar'.

Resolution:
We noticed the peerDependencies for react-native-paper is an asterisk * which is a bad idea for ensuring compatibility and letting end users know what version they should be using at a minimum. We upgraded react-native-paper from 5.3.1 to 5.12.3 which resolved the rendering issue - now the DatePickerInput can fully render and load the calendar (albeit pretty slow in a debug mode app). Side note: when upgrading to the new react-native-paper version we had to change an import of Provider to PaperProvider for react-native-paper.

react-native-paper-dates/package.json

Line 87 in 9da295e

"react-native-paper": "*",

Suggestion:
Please put down actual version numbers instead of asterisks for the peer dependencies of this package.

i got this error and resolved it by updating to the latest version of react-native-paper (note that it's a separate package from react-native-paper-dates)
