<h1>Calendaring Class</h1>
|
|
|
62 |
|
|
|
63 |
<p>The Calendar class enables you to dynamically create calendars. Your calendars can be formatted through the use of a calendar
|
|
|
64 |
template, allowing 100% control over every aspect of its design. In addition, you can pass data to your calendar cells.</p>
|
|
|
65 |
|
|
|
66 |
<h2>Initializing the Class</h2>
|
|
|
67 |
|
|
|
68 |
<p>Like most other classes in CodeIgniter, the Calendar class is initialized in your controller using the <dfn>$this->load->library</dfn> function:</p>
|
|
|
69 |
|
|
|
70 |
<code>$this->load->library('calendar');</code>
|
|
|
71 |
<p>Once loaded, the Calendar object will be available using: <dfn>$this->calendar</dfn></p>
|
|
|
72 |
|
|
|
73 |
|
|
|
74 |
<h2>Displaying a Calendar</h2>
|
|
|
75 |
|
|
|
76 |
<p>Here is a very simple example showing how you can display a calendar:</p>
|
|
|
77 |
|
|
|
78 |
<code>$this->load->library('calendar');<br />
|
|
|
79 |
<br />
|
|
|
80 |
echo $this->calendar->generate();</code>
|
|
|
81 |
|
|
|
82 |
<p>The above code will generate a calendar for the current month/year based on your server time.
|
|
|
83 |
To show a calendar for a specific month and year you will pass this information to the calendar generating function:</p>
|
|
|
84 |
|
|
|
85 |
<code>$this->load->library('calendar');<br />
|
|
|
86 |
<br />
|
|
|
87 |
echo $this->calendar->generate(<kbd>2006</kbd>, <kbd>6</kbd>);</code>
|
|
|
88 |
|
|
|
89 |
<p>The above code will generate a calendar showing the month of June in 2006. The first parameter specifies the year, the second parameter specifies the month.</p>
|
|
|
90 |
|
|
|
91 |
<h2>Passing Data to your Calendar Cells</h2>
|
|
|
92 |
|
|
|
93 |
<p>To add data to your calendar cells involves creating an associative array in which the keys correspond to the days
|
|
|
94 |
you wish to populate and the array value contains the data. The array is passed to the third parameter of the calendar
|
|
|
95 |
generating function. Consider this example:</p>
|
|
|
96 |
|
|
|
97 |
<code>$this->load->library('calendar');<br />
|
|
|
98 |
<br />
|
|
|
99 |
$data = array(<br />
|
|
|
100 |
3 => 'http://example.com/news/article/2006/03/',<br />
|
|
|
101 |
7 => 'http://example.com/news/article/2006/07/',<br />
|
|
|
102 |
13 => 'http://example.com/news/article/2006/13/',<br />
|
|
|
103 |
26 => 'http://example.com/news/article/2006/26/'<br />
|
|
|
104 |
);<br />
|
|
|
105 |
<br />
|
|
|
106 |
echo $this->calendar->generate(<kbd>2006</kbd>, <kbd>6</kbd>, <var>$data</var>);</code>
|
|
|
107 |
|
|
|
108 |
<p>Using the above example, day numbers 3, 7, 13, and 26 will become links pointing to the URLs you've provided.</p>
|
|
|
109 |
|
|
|
110 |
<p class="important"><strong>Note:</strong> By default it is assumed that your array will contain links.
|
|
|
111 |
In the section that explains the calendar template below you'll see how you can customize
|
|
|
112 |
how data passed to your cells is handled so you can pass different types of information.</p>
|
|
|
113 |
|
|
|
114 |
|
|
|
115 |
<h2>Setting Display Preferences</h2>
|
|
|
116 |
|
|
|
117 |
<p>There are seven preferences you can set to control various aspects of the calendar. Preferences are set by passing an
|
|
|
118 |
array of preferences in the second parameter of the loading function. Here is an example:</p>
|
|
|
119 |
|
|
|
120 |
|
|
|
121 |
<code>
|
|
|
122 |
$prefs = array (<br />
|
|
|
123 |
'start_day' => 'saturday',<br />
|
|
|
124 |
'month_type' => 'long',<br />
|
|
|
125 |
'day_type' => 'short'<br />
|
|
|
126 |
);<br />
|
|
|
127 |
<br />
|
|
|
128 |
$this->load->library('calendar', $prefs);<br />
|
|
|
129 |
<br />
|
|
|
130 |
echo $this->calendar->generate();</code>
|
|
|
131 |
|
|
|
132 |
<p>The above code would start the calendar on saturday, use the "long" month heading, and the "short" day names. More information
|
|
|
133 |
regarding preferences below.</p>

<h2>Showing Next/Previous Month Links</h2>
|
|
|
164 |
|
|
|
165 |
<p>To allow your calendar to dynamically increment/decrement via the next/previous links requires that you set up your calendar
|
|
|
166 |
code similar to this example:</p>
|
|
|
167 |
|
|
|
168 |
|
|
|
169 |
<code>$prefs = array (<br />
|
|
|
170 |
'show_next_prev' => TRUE,<br />
|
|
|
171 |
'next_prev_url' => 'http://example.com/index.php/calendar/show/'<br />
|
|
|
172 |
);<br />
|
|
|
173 |
<br />
|
|
|
174 |
$this->load->library('calendar', $prefs);<br />
|
|
|
175 |
<br />
|
|
|
176 |
echo $this->calendar->generate(<var>$this->uri->segment(3)</var>, <var>$this->uri->segment(4)</var>);</code>
|
|
|
177 |
|
|
|
178 |
<p>You'll notice a few things about the above example:</p>
|
|
|
179 |
|
|
|
180 |
<ul>
|
|
|
181 |
<li>You must set the "show_next_prev" to TRUE.</li>
|
|
|
182 |
<li>You must supply the URL to the controller containing your calendar in the "next_prev_url" preference.</li>
|
|
|
183 |
<li>You must supply the "year" and "month" to the calendar generating function via the URI segments where they appear (Note: The calendar class automatically adds the year/month to the base URL you provide.).</li>
|
|
|
184 |
</ul>
|
|
|
185 |

<h2>Creating a Calendar Template</h2>
|
|
|
189 |
|
|
|
190 |
<p>By creating a calendar template you have 100% control over the design of your calendar. Each component of your
|
|
|
191 |
calendar will be placed within a pair of pseudo-variables as shown here:</p>
|
|
|
192 |
