About

CakePHP 3 plugin that uses FullCalendar JS (as part of AdminLTE) to manage calendar events and attendees.

Some of the things that we'll be adding shortly:

• Calendar Attendees search via auto-complete (using Select2 checkbox).
• Recurring calendar events.
• Prototyping calendar attendees.
• Full re-write of jQuery to VueJS components.
• FreeBusy Calendar implementation.

Developed by Qobo, used in Qobrix.

NOTE: The plugin is under development, so any Bug Reports and Pull Requests are more than welcomed.

Plugin installation

Install with composer:

composer require qobo/cakephp-calendar

Load plugin and its requirements in the application. In config/bootstrap.php:

# Optionally adding AdminLTE and Qobo Utils that are partially used inside.
Plugin::load('AdminLTE', ['bootstrap' => true, 'routes' => true]);
Plugin::load('Qobo/Utils');
Plugin::load('Qobo/Calendar', ['bootstrap' => true, 'routes' => true]);

Run database schema migrations to create tables that will hold calendars, events, attendees, etc.:

./bin/cake migrations migrate --plugin Qobo/Calendar

Customization

JavaScript and Styling.

The plugin heavily relies on AdminLTE Bootstrap theme for styling, so you should make some adjustments in src/Template/Calendars/index.ctp in order to get it running.

<?php
// 'scriptBotton' is an AdminLTE typo that I kept ;(

echo $this->Html->css(
    [
        'AdminLTE./plugins/fullcalendar/fullcalendar.min.css',
        'AdminLTE./plugins/daterangepicker/daterangepicker-bs3',
        'AdminLTE./plugins/select2/select2.min',
        'Qobo/Utils.select2-bootstrap.min',
        'Qobo/Utils.select2-style',
    ]
);

echo $this->Html->script(
    [
        'AdminLTE./plugins/jQuery/jQuery-2.1.4.min', // in case you didn't include it in the layout
        'AdminLTE./bootstrap/js/bootstrap',          // should be include in your layout.
        'AdminLTE./plugins/daterangepicker/moment.min',
        'AdminLTE./plugins/fullcalendar/fullcalendar.min.js',
        'AdminLTE./plugins/daterangepicker/daterangepicker',
        'AdminLTE./plugins/select2/select2.min',
    ],
    ['block' => 'scriptBotton']
);

echo $this->Html->script(
    [
        'Qobo/Calendar.external/nlp',
        'Qobo/Calendar.external/rrule',
        'Qobo/Calendar.vue.min',
        'Qobo/Calendar.vue-select',
        'Qobo/Calendar.calendar.js',
    ],
    ['block' => 'scriptBotton']
);
?>

JavaScript files should go to your footer, so you can use native cake fetch('scriptBottom') and replace scriptBotton with scriptBottom in the index template (assuming that you have $this->fetch('scriptBottom'); in your layout footer.
