ics.js

A browser firendly .ics/.vcs file generator written entirely in javascript!!!!!!

Now you can make calendar friendly files client-side. It outputs .ics files, so the files are compatible with all modern calendar software (Outlook, Apple Calendar, Google, etc.)

How To Use

Simply use invoke the object and use the functions...

var cal = ics();
cal.addEvent(subject, description, location, begin, end);
cal.addEvent(subject, description, location, begin, end); // yes, you can have multiple events :-)
cal.download(filename);

begin and end need to be formatted in a way that is friendly to Date()

Example

<script>
	var cal = ics();
	cal.addEvent('Demo Event', 'This is an all day event', 'Nome, AK', '8/7/2013', '8/7/2013');
	cal.addEvent('Demo Event', 'This is thirty minut event', 'Nome, AK', '8/7/2013 5:30 pm', '8/9/2013 6:00 pm');
</script>
<a href="javascript:cal.download()">Demo</a>

Dependencies

The tool uses 2 libraries from the following projects:

I've compressed them and included them into the source for the normal file. Other variations are available in the repo.

If you want IE to allow for either opening documents as well as saving documents, you can use my fork of FileSaver.js (https://github.com/nwcell/FileSaver.js)... Though you honestly are probebly best off using their main.
