drag and drop images to event in fullcalendar - fullcalendar

I really hope to get some help with this. I'm doing a calendar for kids using fullcalendar. It should be possible to drag and drop som image icon into the events of the calendar. It looks someting like this: http://boerne.migraeniker.dk/kalender_filer/default.html
But how can I display the image that I drop inside the event.
The code that should drop the image is here:
drop:function(start,end, allDay) {
var originalEventObject = $(this).data('event');
var copiedEventObject = $.extend({}, originalEventObject);
if (copiedEventObject.title) {
start = $.fullCalendar.formatDate(start, "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
$.ajax({
url: 'http://boerne.migraeniker.dk/kalender_filer/add_events.php',
data: 'title='+copiedEventObject.title+'&start='+ start +'&end='+ end,
type: "POST",
success: function(json) {
}
});
calendar.fullCalendar('renderEvent',
{
title: copiedEventObject.title,
start: start,
end: end,
allDay: allDay
},
true // make the event "stick"
);
}
calendar.fullCalendar('unselect');
},
I really hope this makes sense otherwise I can post more of the code.

Take a look at External dragging demo
You need to declare droppable and drop in $('#mycalendar')
droppable: true, // this allows things to be dropped onto the calendar !!!
drop: function(date, allDay) { // this function is called when something is dropped
// retrieve the dropped element's stored Event Object
var originalEventObject = $(this).data('eventObject');
// we need to copy it, so that multiple events don't have a reference to the same object
var copiedEventObject = $.extend({}, originalEventObject);
// assign it the date that was reported
copiedEventObject.start = date;
copiedEventObject.allDay = allDay;
// render the event on the calendar
// the last `true` argument determines if the event "sticks" (http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/docs/event_rendering/renderEvent/)
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('renderEvent', copiedEventObject, true);
// is the "remove after drop" checkbox checked?
if ($('#drop-remove').is(':checked')) {
// if so, remove the element from the "Draggable Events" list
$(this).remove();
}
}

Full Calendar v3 extending display beyond end of calendar year in List View

Good morning!
I have a list view set up in full calendar and have noticed that it will not display events beyond the end of the year. With it being now mid-December, this is a bit of a problem for me. We have several event that should be displaying in this list. When I change the view to month I have to click the next month button to get next years events, but at least with that I do sucessfully see the events in question.
Is there a way for my list view calendars to roll-over and include next year entries as I approach the end of the current year?
Here is an excerpt of what I have that effects the display of my calendar:
{url:'https://calendar.mydomain.com/services/id/38djsuw3hr-au8reh39dq/organization/1/department/13/',event_properties:{color:'#6a9b49'}},
]
function data_req (url, callback) {
req = new XMLHttpRequest()
req.addEventListener('load', callback)
req.open('GET', url)
req.send()
}
function add_recur_events() {
if (sources_to_load_cnt < 1) {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('addEventSource', expand_recur_events)
} else {
setTimeout(add_recur_events, 30)
}
}
function load_ics(ics){
data_req(ics.url, function(){
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('addEventSource', fc_events(this.response, ics.event_properties))
sources_to_load_cnt -= 1
})
}
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: '',
center: '',
right: '' //view options on top-right (supported by v2.9.1 currently)
},
viewDisplay: function(view) {
parent.setIframeHeight(iframeId) ;
},
eventClick: function(event) {
// opens events in a new window or tab
window.open(event.url,);
return false;
},
// eventDataTransform: function(rawEventData){
// return {title: rawEventData.Title
// };
// },
defaultView: $(window).width() < 765 ? 'listYear':'listYear', //carryover code from full sized calendar
nowIndicator: false, //show a marker for current time
eventLimit: 4, // allow "more" link when too many events
fixedWeekCount: false, // have blank rows on a 6 or 7 row month
listDayFormat: 'MMMM Do',
listDayAltFormat: false,
allDayDefault: false,
noEventsMessage: "No Currently Scheduled Events"
})
sources_to_load_cnt = ics_sources.length
for (ics of ics_sources) {
load_ics(ics)
}
add_recur_events()
})
All I see is my "NoEventsMessage" text when in list view. If I create a test event the occurs prior to the end of the year it shows up in list view.
Any ideas on spanning calendar end?
thanks
[Edit: I should say that the link at the top is a JSON feed, so I am not using a prefilled list of events from within my script or from within an external file]
Here is how I solved it.
I created a custom view entry for the specific default view called "list" and gave it a one year duration:
views: {
list: {
duration: { days:365 }
}
},
I reset my default view from the dynamic version I carried over from my full-sized calendar (since I am using this in a column anyway and the window width call is not needed):
From:
defaultView: $(window).width() < 765 ? 'listYear':'listYear',
To:
defaultView: 'list',
After doing those things my January entries for next year began to display in list view.
Here is what my display calls look like (If someone wants to edit this to make it look prettier and more efficient, I don't mind :).
ics_sources = [
{url:'https://calendar.mydomain.com/services/id/38djsuw3hr-au8reh39dq/organization/1/department/13/',event_properties:{color:'#6a9b49'}},
]
function data_req (url, callback) {
req = new XMLHttpRequest()
req.addEventListener('load', callback)
req.open('GET', url)
req.send()
}
function add_recur_events() {
if (sources_to_load_cnt < 1) {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('addEventSource', expand_recur_events)
} else {
setTimeout(add_recur_events, 30)
}
}
function load_ics(ics){
data_req(ics.url, function(){
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('addEventSource', fc_events(this.response, ics.event_properties))
sources_to_load_cnt -= 1
})
}
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: false,
viewDisplay: function(view) {
parent.setIframeHeight(iframeId) ;
},
eventClick: function(event) {
// opens events in a new window or tab
window.open(event.url,);
return false;
},
defaultView: 'list',
nowIndicator: false, //show a marker for current time
eventLimit: 4, // allow "more" link when too many events
fixedWeekCount: false, // have blank rows on a 6 or 7 row month
listDayFormat: 'MMMM Do',
listDayAltFormat: false,
noEventsMessage: "No Currently Scheduled Events",
views: {
list: {
duration: { days: 365 },
}
}
})
sources_to_load_cnt = ics_sources.length
for (ics of ics_sources) {
load_ics(ics)
}
add_recur_events()
})
Thanks.

Fullcalendar using resources as a function with select menu

Using Fullcalendar 4, I am trying to show/hide my resources using a select menu. When the user selects one of the providers from a menu, I want to only show that one resourc's events.
Above my fullcalendar I have my select menu:
<select id="toggle_providers_calendar" class="form-control" >
<option value="1" selected>Screech Powers</option>
<option value="2">Slater</option>
</select>
I am gathering the resources I need using an ajax call on my included fullcalendar.php page. I am storing them in an object and then trying to control which resources are shown onscreen:
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
var resourceData = [];
$.getJSON('ajax_get_json.php?what=schedule_providers_at_location',
function(data) {
$.each(data, function(index) {
resourceData.push({
id: data[index].value,
title: data[index].text
});
});
console.log(resourceData);
});
//below, set the visible resources to whatever is selected in the menu
//using 1 in order for that to show at start
var visibleResourceIds = ["1"];
//below, get the selected id when the the menu is changed and use that in the toggle resource function
$('#toggle_providers_calendar').change(function() {
toggleResource($('#toggle_providers_calendar').val());
});
var calendar_full = document.getElementById('calendar_full');
var calendar = new FullCalendar.Calendar(calendar_full, {
events: {
url: 'ajax_get_json.php?what=location_appointments'
},
height: 700,
resources: function(fetchInfo, successCallback, failureCallback) {
// below, I am trying to filter resources by whether their id is in visibleResourceIds.
var filteredResources = [];
filteredResources = resourceData.filter(function(x) {
return visibleResourceIds.indexOf(x.id) !== -1;
});
successCallback(filteredResources);
},
...
});
// below, my toggle_providers_calendar will trigger this function. Feed it resourceId.
function toggleResource(resourceId) {
var index = visibleResourceIds.indexOf(resourceId);
if (index !== -1) {
visibleResourceIds.splice(index, 1);
} else {
visibleResourceIds.push(resourceId);
}
calendar.refetchResources();
}
To make sure the getJSON is working, I have console.log(resourceData). The information in the console once it's gathered is:
[{id: '1', title: 'Screech Powers'}, {id: '2', title: 'Slater}]
... the above are the correct resources that can be chosen/rendered. So that seems to be okay.
On page load, no resources show at all, when resource id of '1' (Screech Powers) should be shown per my code. Well, at least, that's what I am trying to do right now.
When the menu changes, resources will show/hide, but not based on what's selected; the logic of only showing what is selected in the menu doesn't seem to be working.
I used to use a URL request for my resources: 'ajax_get_json.php?what=schedule_providers_at_location', and it worked fine! All resources show then their events properly. I am just trying to modify it by using a menu to show/hide the resources as needed.
Here's what I'm doing to make it happen so far! In case someone comes across this post ever, this will help.
Here's my code before my fullcalendar code.
var resourceData = [];
var visibleResourceIds = [];
$.getJSON('ajax_get_json.php?what=schedule_providers_at_location',
function(data) {
$.each(data, function(index) {
resourceData.push({
id: data[index].value,
title: data[index].text
});
});
});
$('#toggle_providers_calendar').change(function() {
toggleResource($('#toggle_providers_calendar').val());
});
My select menu with id 'toggle_providers_calendar' is the same as my original post. My fullcalendar resources as a function is the same too.
After the calendar is rendered, here are the changes I made to my toggle resources function:
// menu button/dropdown will trigger this function. Feed it resourceId.
function toggleResource(resourceId) {
visibleResourceIds = [];
//if select all... see if undefined from loading on initial load = true
if ((resourceId == '') || (resourceId === undefined)) {
$.map( resourceData, function( value, index ) {
visibleResourceIds.push(value.id);
});
}
var index = visibleResourceIds.indexOf(resourceId);
if (index !== -1) {
visibleResourceIds.splice(index, 1);
} else {
visibleResourceIds.push(resourceId);
}
calendar.refetchResources();
}
This causes the resources to show and hide properly. If the user selects "Show All" that works too!
In order to have a default resource show on load, I add this to my fullcalendar script:
loading: function(bool) {
if (bool) {
//insert code if still loading
$('.loader').show();
} else {
$('.loader').hide();
if (initial_load) {
initial_load = false;
//code here once done loading and initial_load = true
var default_resource_to_show = "<?php echo $default_provider; ?>";
if (default_resource_to_show) {
//set the menu to that provider and trigger the change event to toggleresrource()
$('#toggle_providers_calendar').val(default_provider).change();
} else {
//pass in nothing meaning 'select all' providers for scheduler to see
toggleResource();
}
}
}
},
I am using a bool variable of initial_load to see if the page was just loaded (basically not loading data without a page refresh). The bool of initial_load = true is set outside of DOMContentLoaded
<script>
//show selected date in title box
var initial_load = true;
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
My only current problem is that when toggleResource function is called, the all day vertical time block boundaries don't line up with the rest of the scheduler. Once I start navigating, they do, but I don't understand why it looks like this on initial load or when toggleResource() is called:
Any thoughts on how to correct the alignment of the allday vertical blocks?

Dynamically toggle resource column visibility

I have a FullCalendar scheduler on a webapp which has 2 way databinding for resources and events, all working great. I want to be able to present the user with a dropdown that enables them to toggle the visibility of a column, ideally completely client side.
I have tried a combination of addResource / removeResource however my issue here is that a rerender of the calendar (e.g. when a new event is added) then displays the previously removed resource. I can work around this however would prefer a really simple approach using JS / CSS. I currently cannot find a way to set a resource to not be visible, or to have zero width - is this possible?
There is an easy way to do this:
Store resources in an array variable resourceData.
Create another array called visibleResourceIds to store the ids of any resources you want to show.
In the resources callback function, filter resourceData to only contain the resources where the resource id exists in visibleResourceIds. Return the filtered array and fullcalendar will only add the desired resources for you.
To remove a resource from view, simply remove the resource id from visibleResourceIds and refetchResources. To add the resource back in, add the id to visibleResourceIds and refetchResources. DONE.
JSFiddle
var resourceData = [
{id: "1", title: "R1"},
{id: "2", title: "R2"},
{id: "3", title: "R3"}
];
var visibleResourceIds = ["1", "2", "3"];
// Your button/dropdown will trigger this function. Feed it resourceId.
function toggleResource(resourceId) {
var index = visibleResourceIds.indexOf(resourceId);
if (index !== -1) {
visibleResourceIds.splice(index, 1);
} else {
visibleResourceIds.push(resourceId);
}
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('refetchResources');
}
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
defaultView: 'agendaDay',
resources: function(callback) {
// Filter resources by whether their id is in visibleResourceIds.
var filteredResources = [];
filteredResources = resourceData.filter(function(x) {
return visibleResourceIds.indexOf(x.id) !== -1;
});
callback(filteredResources);
}
});
I had the same challenge. Instead of a dropdown, I use checkboxes, but the workings will be the same.
My resources are stored in a variable, when I uncheck a box, the resource is removed and the resource's object is added to another array with the resourceId as key, and the index added to the object to restore the object in the same column as it originally was. When re-checking the box, the object is added to the resources array and the resources refetched.
/* retrieve the resources from the server */
var planningResources;
var removedResource = [];
$.ajax({
url: '/planning/resources/',
method: 'get',
success: function (response) {
planningResources = response;
showCalendar();
}
, error: function () {
if (typeof console == "object") {
console.log(xhr.status + "," + xhr.responseText + "," + textStatus + "," + error);
}
}
});
/* create the calendar */
showCalendar = function () {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
...
});
}
/* checkbox on click */
$('.resource').click(function() {
var resourceId = $(this).val();
var hideResource = !$(this)[0].checked;
$('.status:checkbox:checked').each(function () {
});
if(hideResource) {
$.each(planningResources, function(index, value){
if( value && value.id == resourceId ) {
value.ndx = index;
removedResource[resourceId] = value;
planningResources.splice(index,1);
return false;
}
});
$('#planningoverview').fullCalendar(
'removeResource',
resourceId
);
}
else {
planningResources.splice(removedResource[resourceId].ndx, 0, removedResource[resourceId]);
$('#planningoverview').fullCalendar('refetchResources');
}
});
showCalendar();
It probably doesn't get first price in a beauty contest, but it works for me ...
Cheers
You can use the resourceColumns option for this. In the column objects you can set the width property to a number of pixels or a percentage. If you pass a function here you can easily handle the width property someplace else. Your hide/show function can then set the width to 0 to hide the column. After that you can trigger reinitView to update the view: $('#calendar').fullCalendar("reinitView");

prevent an external event to be dropped on full calendar if earlier than today's date

I am using the fullcalendar jquery plugin to create a schedule of events. I want to prevent the user from dropping an external event on the calendar if it is earlier than current date.
This is my current code:
$('#edit_calendar').fullCalendar({
header:
{
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
titleFormat: { month: 'MMMM' },
defaultView: 'month',
droppable: true,
drop: function (date, jsEvent, ui, resourceId) {
//compare today's date with drop date - if in the past, don't allow
var today = moment().startOf('day');
var dropDate = moment(date).startOf('day');
if (dropDate < today)
{
//The alert is shown
alert("An event in the past cannot be added, updated, or deleted.");
return false;
}
else
{
var memberName = $(this).data('event').title;
var memberID = $(this).attr('id').toString();
//Create Event - add to array
var newEvent = new Object();
newEvent = {
title: memberName,
id: memberID,
start: date.format(),
end: date.format(),
objectID: 0
};
eventsAdded.push(newEvent);
}
},
...rest of code
If the event is dropped before the current day display the alert and do not create the event. If shown after the current day, create the event.
In the code above, the alert is shown, but the event is still created. If the event is dropped after the current day, the event is created.
I thought by adding return false after the alert is displayed it will prevent the event from being created. However, the alert is shown AND the event is created.
Do I have to remove the event or is there a way to prevent the event from being created?
I was able to restrict events when they are added or changed using the selectConstraint and eventConstraint respectively. However, I would like to add an alert when the user tries to update or add an event outside the start and end dates so they know why it is not working.
This is what I have:
$('#edit_calendar').fullCalendar({
header:
{
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
titleFormat: { month: 'MMMM' },
defaultView: 'month',
droppable: true,
drop: function (date, jsEvent, ui, resourceId) {
var memberName = $(this).data('event').title;
var memberID = $(this).attr('id').toString();
//Create Event - add to array
var newEvent = new Object();
newEvent = {
title: memberName,
id: memberID,
start: date.format(),
end: date.format(),
objectID: 0
};
eventsAdded.push(newEvent);
},
editable: true,
//The following constraints prevents the user from adding/updating/deleting events that are before the current date
//The end date is required. So, you can't add events over a year away from the current date
eventConstraint: {
start: moment().startOf('day'),
end: moment(moment().startOf('day'), 'MM-DD-YYY').add('days', 365)
},
selectConstraint: {
start: moment().startOf('day'),
end: moment(moment().startOf('day'), 'MM-DD-YYY').add('days', 365)
},
...rest of code...
Is there any way I can add an alert when the user tries to add or update an event ou
From the documentation:
eventDrop does not get called when an external event lands on the calendar. eventReceive is called instead
Having said that, in order to prevent the drop you need to go more back in the chain. You need to use "dropAccept". You can read about it in the documentation.
You can use 'removeEvents' to remove added event.
https://fullcalendar.io/docs1/event_data/removeEvents/
drop: function(date, jsEvent, ui, resourceId) {
var add = true;
... // Here decide whether to add or not
if(add){
;
}
else{
//use 'removeEvents' to remove added event
}
}

add event to fullcalendar by dropping from external source

I would like to add an event to the fullcalendar jquery plugin from an external source. I need the event title; start and end dates. I read that the drop callback function is called when you drop an external source on the calendar. This reports the start date in the alert. The eventReceive option shows the title of the event. This alert is displayed after the drop callback. This is the code:
$('#edit_calendar').fullCalendar({
...
droppable: true,
drop: function(date) {
alert("Dropped on " + date );
},
eventReceive: function (event) {
alert('event, ' + event.title + ', was added, (need date here)');
},
How do I get the start date value from the drop callback to the eventRecieve function?
You can get the start and end dates within the drop event. This is the code I added to the drop event:
drop: function (date, jsEvent, ui, resourceId) {
var memberName = $(this).data('event').title;
var memberID = $(this).attr('id').toString();
//Create Event - add to array
var newEvent = new Object();
newEvent = {
title: memberName,
id: memberID,
start: date.format(),
end: date.format(),
objectID: 0
};
eventsAdded.push(newEvent);
},
