# How to use: |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
At first install it as a `wpfluent-package` using `wpf package:install caldav` |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
# Updated the API (New way to use): |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
```php |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
// Create the client |
| 15 |
$client = new Google($base_url, $username, $password); |
| 16 |
$client = new ICloud($base_url, $username, $password); |
| 17 |
$client = new NextCloud($base_url, $username, $password); |
| 18 |
``` |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
**After creating the client, use case is same, for example:** |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
```php |
| 23 |
// Get all calendars |
| 24 |
$calendars = $client->getCalendars(); |
| 25 |
``` |
| 26 |
Once you get all the calendars, you'll get an array where each array will contain something like this: |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
```php |
| 29 |
{ |
| 30 |
displayname: "Home", |
| 31 |
events: [], |
| 32 |
getctag: "HwoQEgwAAGj/iqqR3wABAAEYARgAIhUI1YCtyZ6LsNFMEPLT3MannZbujAEoAA==", |
| 33 |
href : "/10337091274/calendars/home/" |
| 34 |
} |
| 35 |
``` |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
You should save these to use later, otherwise you'll need to call the `$client->getCalendars()` method again and again, which is expensive. If you save the calendar's data then you may make a calendar instance from this data, for example: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
```php |
| 40 |
$calendar = $client->createCalendar({ |
| 41 |
displayname: "Home", |
| 42 |
events: [], |
| 43 |
getctag: "HwoQEgwAAGj/iqqR3wABAAEYARgAIhUI1YCtyZ6LsNFMEPLT3MannZbujAEoAA==", |
| 44 |
href : "/10337091274/calendars/home/" |
| 45 |
}); |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
// Add an event into the first calendar |
| 48 |
return $calendars->addEvent([...]); |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
// Get all events from the first calendar |
| 51 |
return $calendars->getEvents(); |
| 52 |
``` |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
Once you have the calendar intance, you can use this instance to get or add events. On the initial call to `getCalendars()`, you don't need to make an instance of the calendar because each item will be an intance of a calendar, for example: |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
```php |
| 57 |
// Get all calendars |
| 58 |
$calendars = $client->getCalendars(); |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
// Add an event into the first calendar |
| 61 |
return $calendars[0]->addEvent([...]); |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
// Get all events from the first calendar |
| 64 |
return $calendars[0]->getEvents(); |
| 65 |
|
| 66 |
// Get a single calendar from the server |
| 67 |
$calendar = $client->getCalendar($calendars[1]->href); |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
// Add an event to the calendar |
| 70 |
return $calendar->addEvent([...]); |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
// Get all events from the calendar |
| 73 |
return $calendar->getEvents(); |
| 74 |
``` |
| 75 |
|
| 76 |
**Alternatively you may create an event using the following approach:** |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
```php |
| 79 |
$event = $calendar->createEvent(); |
| 80 |
|
| 81 |
$event->dtstart = '2023-11-15 01:30:00'; |
| 82 |
$event->dtend = '2023-11-16 03:00:00'; |
| 83 |
$event->status = 'confirmed'; |
| 84 |
$event->summary = 'Another Event'; |
| 85 |
$event->description = 'A short description about the another event.'; |
| 86 |
$event->location = 'Office'; |
| 87 |
|
| 88 |
// Using $calendar->addEvent method |
| 89 |
if ($calendar->addEvent($event)) { |
| 90 |
return $calendar->getEvent($event->getUid()); |
| 91 |
} |
| 92 |
// Or using $event->save method |
| 93 |
$event = $event->save(); |
| 94 |
``` |
| 95 |
|
| 96 |
**To update an existing event:** |
| 97 |
|
| 98 |
```php |
| 99 |
// Pass the saved calendar data |
| 100 |
$calendar = $client->createCalendar([ |
| 101 |
'href' => '/10337091274/calendars/work/', |
| 102 |
'displayname' => 'Work', |
| 103 |
'getctag' => 'HwoQEgwAAGlcwC6jWgAAAAAYARgAIhUI3pahwNDCrtloEJSXjYThi4nzhwEoAA==', |
| 104 |
]); |
| 105 |
|
| 106 |
$events = $calendar->getEvents(); |
| 107 |
|
| 108 |
// Update the first event |
| 109 |
$events[0]->summary = 'New Summary'; |
| 110 |
$updatedEevent = $events[0]->save(); |
| 111 |
``` |
| 112 |
|
| 113 |
**To delete an existing event:** |
| 114 |
|
| 115 |
```php |
| 116 |
$event->delete(); |
| 117 |
$calendar->deleteEvent($eventUid); |
| 118 |
``` |
| 119 |
|
| 120 |
**Note:** If the `$event->save` method is used then you'll get back the newly created or updated event back. |
| 121 |
|
| 122 |
Available setable properties in an event: |
| 123 |
|
| 124 |
```php |
| 125 |
$event = [ |
| 126 |
'dtstart' => '2023-10-15 01:30:00', // or new \DateTime('2023-10-15 03:00:00') |
