Calendar and events view widget for Flutter.

calendar_view_widget #

About #

A Flutter widget built to display a monthly calendar with a list of daily events shown below. The widget is intended to be used to fill a full scaffold body.

Status: Under Development #

This package is under development and likely to change. The hope is not to break things, but new features may require updates to your code.

Usage Details #

CalendarView #

new CalendarView(
  events: eventList, // List<Map<String, String>>
  onEventTapped: onEventTappedHandler, // function(eventID)
  titleField: 'name', // String
  detailField: 'location', // String
  dateField: 'date', // String
  idField: 'id', // String
  separatorTitle: 'Events', // String
  theme: ThemeData.light(), // ThemeData
),

The calendar expects a list of Events, as described below, in addition to some other configuration values. This intent is to be adaptable to your app data.

The example above includes the default values for the String parameters (titleField, detailField, dateField, idField, and separatorTitle) as well as the default theme, ThemeData.light(). All of these may be overridden to suit your data structure and styling needs.

The onEventTapped handler should be a function that recieves an id value for an event. It can then be used to look up that event in your data and respond as needed in the rest of the app.

Example:

void onEventTapped(String id) {
  print(id);
}

Events #

Structure:

{
  'name': 'Event Name',
  'location': 'Event Location',
  'date': '2018-01-23 04:56:00',
  'id': '1',
}

Events are simply Maps with String keys and String values (Map<String, String>).

Parameter Notes #

The expectation is that there are at least 3 fields to use for the display: titleField, detailField, and dateField.

Date Field Note: Inside the package, the date field is read using DateTime.parse(), so the date field string should use one of the range of formats it can ready.

An additional field can be used to as the idField, which should reference unique identifier field that is returned when a user taps on an event in the event list. The default is 'id' but if one of the other three primary fields is unique, feel free to use that instead.

Theming #

The calendar allows for a ThemeData object to be passed to it to enable theming to match the rest of your app.

Fields used in ThemeData:

primaryColor,
accentColor,
canvasColor,
backgroundColor,
dividerColor,
textTheme: {
  display1,
  subhead,
  headline,
  title
},
accentTextTheme: {
  body1,
  title,
  display1
}

Dependencies #

  • intl - provides the date formatting for display in the events list.

Special Thanks #

This package could not have been built without the awesomeness of Dart and Flutter. Thank you to the teams of people who have built the tools and infrastructure that enables this new app development ecosystem to grow and thrive.
