PHP Framework for CalDAV

This framework abstracts all VCALENDAR entities. In addition it automatically adds required timezone information for dates. You can simply work with PHP DateTime and DateTimeZone objects.

After creating an event or a todo and setting all required values, you can create the vcalendar output or save the entry directly.

Installing via composer

First, download and install composer: Composer.

Next, run the composer command to install the latest stable version of the CalDAV framework:

composer require brainformatik/caldav-framework

Installing manually

First, download the latest version of CalDAV framework: CalDAV Framework.

Next, unzip and move this package in your application structure.

Last, use package autoloader to load the CalDAV framework classes:

<?php
require_once 'caldav-framework/autoload.php';

Example usage

require_once('autoload.php');

try {
    $client = new \Brainformatik\CalDAV\Connection\Client([
        'baseUri' => 'http://some-url' // set caldav server url
    ]);

    $calendar = new \Brainformatik\CalDAV\Entity\Calendar($client, 'http://url-to-calendar');

    $event = $calendar->addEvent();
    $event->setUid('unique-id123415');
    $event->setSummary('This is the summary');
    $event->setDescription('This is the description which can be very long and should be folded at some point if the implementation is working correctly.');
    $event->setComment('This is the comment you can use for something.');
    $event->setLocation('Meeting room 1');
    $event->setPriority(9);
    $event->addResources(['BEAMER', 'Flipchart']);
    $event->setStatus(\Brainformatik\CalDAV\Enum\EventStatus::CONFIRMED);
    $event->setDateEnd(new DateTime('2016-01-01 14:00:10', new DateTimeZone('America/New_York')));
    $event->setDateStart(new DateTime('2015-12-12', new DateTimeZone('America/New_York')));
    $event->setRecurrenceId(new DateTime('2015-12-12', new DateTimeZone('America/New_York')), [
        'RANGE' => 'THISANDFUTURE',
        'VALUE' => 'DATE'
    ]);

    $duration = new \Brainformatik\CalDAV\Type\Duration();
    $duration->setHour(10)->setMinute(30);

    $event->setDuration($duration);
    $event->setTransparency(\Brainformatik\CalDAV\Enum\EventTransparency::TRANSPARENT);
    $event->addExceptionDates([
        new DateTime('2015-12-12 12:00:00', new DateTimeZone('America/New_York')),
        new DateTime('2015-12-13 12:00:00', new DateTimeZone('America/New_York')),
        new DateTime('2015-12-14 12:00:00', new DateTimeZone('Europe/Berlin'))
    ]);

    $event->setDateCreated(new DateTime('2016-10-08 09:32:00', new DateTimeZone('UTC')));
    $event->setDateLastModified(new DateTime('2016-10-08 09:32:00', new DateTimeZone('UTC')));

    // to get the icalendar output
    echo $calendar->serialize();
    
    // to save the event to the calendar
    $calendar->save('filename.ics');
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage();
}
