@nicolai8/add-to-calendar v1.1.1

https://github.com/AddToCalendar/addtocalendar is now part of https://www.addevent.com/ and in future will be suspended at all. So, this is almost complete rewrite of that library.

Setup

Auto applying

1. add JS to the page
2. add addtocalendar class to element in which you want to add calendar button
3. add event parameters as a child of .addtocalendar

Options

Default

• language is assumed as browser locale, but if it's not among predefined languages defaultLanguage will be used, i.e. en
• calendars calendars to show. Is and array. Possible values are: iCalendar, googleCalendar, outlook, yahoo
• translations key/value object containing translations. If some translation is missing default (en) will be used

Translations

Default keys are:

• buttonText
• iCalendar
• googleCalendar
• outlook
• yahoo

Override Options

1. via global vatiables atcOverrides
2. via data-atc-* attributes

Notes

Options are applied in the following way: settings = Object.assign(default, global variable, data-atc-*)

Event Parameters

• date_start in case it's passed via html element it should be in ISO 8601 format; otherwise it's passed as regular Date
• date_end in case it's passed via html element it should be in ISO 8601 format; otherwise it's passed as regular Date
• title
• description
• location

Examples

Auto

in this case plugin will automatically find .addtocalendar elements then will parse event and show it: 1. Add JS

<script src="add-to-calendar.min.js" async></script>

or if you're using ES6:

import 'add-to-calendar';

2. Add styles

<link href="add-to-calendar.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<link href="themes/blue.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

3. Place html

<span class="addtocalendar atc-style-blue">
  <var class="atc_event">
    <var class="atc_date_start">2018-09-05T12:00:00.000Z</var>
    <var class="atc_date_end">2018-09-05T18:00:00.000Z</var>
    <var class="atc_timezone">Europe/London</var>
    <var class="atc_title">Star Wars Day Party</var>
    <var class="atc_description">May the force be with you</var>
    <var class="atc_location">Tatooine</var>
    <var class="atc_organizer">Luke Skywalker</var>
    <var class="atc_organizer_email">luke@starwars.com</var>
  </var>
</span>

Manually (ES6)

1. Install dependency

npm i @nicolai8/add-to-calendar

2. Import method

import { createCalendar } from 'add-to-calendar';

3. Call it with element, settings and eventParams

const element = document.getElementById('addToCalendarButton');
const settings = {
  language: 'jp',
};
const event = {
  title: 'Event title',
  date_start: new Date(),
  date_end: new Date(),
};
createCalendar(element, settings, event);
