Check out the example app to get the full code for the above examples.
Various Views: The package provides three main views: DaysView, WeekView, MonthView and ScheduleListView each catering to different time spans.
Customization: Users can easily customize the appearance of the calendar using themes for different components such as DaysListTheme, TimelineTheme, DaysRowTheme, MonthDayTheme, DraggableEventTheme, FloatingEventsTheme, TimeMarkTheme, and DisplayedPeriodPickerTheme. There are also corresponding custom builders available for each widget.
Dynamic Event Editing: The calendar supports dynamic editing of events in each view. Utilizing callbacks like onEventUpdated and onDiscardChanges, users can seamlessly update or discard changes made to events.
Event Types: The package supports various event types, including SimpleEvent, TaskDue, and Break. You can easily create your own type that extends the corresponding abstract event class.
Adding Events Dynamically: Users can add events dynamically. The provided example showcases how to implement this feature using a bottom sheet and onDateLongPress callback.
Comprehensive Example: The package comes with a comprehensive example app that demonstrates its usage and features. The example code is available on GitHub.
Add the following dependency to your pubspec.yaml file:
dependencies:
flutter_customizable_calendar: ^0.3.7Then, run:
$ flutter pub getThis code snippet showcases how to handle long presses on dates in the DaysView and dynamically add different types of events such as Simple Event, Task Due, and Break. The provided callback (_onDateLongPress) creates a bottom sheet with options,and based on the user's selection, it adds the corresponding event to the calendar.
Future<CalendarEvent?> _onDateLongPress(DateTime timestamp) async {
final _minute = timestamp.minute;
return await showModalBottomSheet(
context: context,
builder: (context) => Column(
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.stretch,
children: [
const SizedBox(
height: 32,
),
ListTile(
title: Text("Simple Event"),
onTap: () {
final T newItem = SimpleEvent(
id: const Uuid().v1(),
start: timestamp.subtract(Duration(minutes: _minute)),
duration: Duration(hours: 1),
title: "Simple event",
) as T;
listCubit.save(newItem);
Navigator.of(context).pop(newItem);
},
),
ListTile(
title: Text("Task Due"),
onTap: () {
final T newItem = TaskDue(
id: const Uuid().v1(),
start: timestamp.subtract(Duration(minutes: _minute)),
) as T;
listCubit.save(newItem);
Navigator.of(context).pop(newItem);
},
),
ListTile(
title: Text("Break"),
onTap: () {
final Break newItem = Break(
id: const Uuid().v1(),
start: timestamp.subtract(Duration(minutes: _minute)),
duration: Duration(hours: 1),
);
listCubit.save(newItem);
Navigator.of(context).pop(newItem);
},
),
],
),
);
}
DaysView<T>(
//...
onDateLongPress: _onDateLongPress,
)
WeekView<T>(
//...
onDateLongPress: _onDateLongPress,
)
MonthView<T>(
//...
onDateLongPress: _onDateLongPress,
)Effortlessly edit events dynamically in the calendar by utilizing the provided callbacks for each view: DaysView, WeekView, and MonthView. The visual representation below illustrates the dynamic editing feature across different views:
Days View |
Week View |
|---|
To enable dynamic editing, you need to utilize the provided callbacks for each view. By implementing these callbacks, you can capture events when they are updated or discarded, allowing for seamless dynamic editing within your calendar views. The following code snippets demonstrate how to integrate the event editing functionality using the onEventUpdated and onDiscardChanges callbacks:
// List Cubit
void save(CalendarEvent event) {
if (event is Break) {
emit(state.copyWith(breaks: state.breaks..[event.id] = event));
}
if (event is FloatingCalendarEvent) {
emit(state.copyWith(events: state.events..[event.id] = event));
}
}
DaysView<T>(
//...
onEventUpdated: (obj) {
print(obj);
context.read<ListCubit>().save(obj);
},
onDiscardChanges: (obj) {
print(obj);
},
)
WeekView<T>(
//...
onEventTap: print,
onEventUpdated: (obj) {
print(obj);
context.read<ListCubit>().save(obj);
},
onDiscardChanges: (obj) {
print(obj);
},
);
MonthView<T>(
//...
onEventTap: print,
onEventUpdated: (obj) {
print(obj);
context.read<ListCubit>().save(obj);
},
onDiscardChanges: (obj) {
print(obj);
},
);The package supports all-day events for DaysView and WeekView. The following code snippet demonstrates how to create an all-day event:
SimpleAllDayEvent(
id: 'All-day 1',
start: today,
duration: const Duration(days: 2),
title: 'Event 1',
color: Colors.redAccent.shade200,
)This events can be added to the events list of the DaysView or WeekView:
DaysView<T>(
//...
events: [
SimpleAllDayEvent(
id: 'All-day 1',
start: today,
duration: const Duration(days: 2),
title: 'Event 1',
color: Colors.redAccent.shade200,
),
],
)
WeekView<T>(
//...
events: [
SimpleAllDayEvent(
id: 'All-day 1',
start: today,
duration: const Duration(days: 2),
title: 'Event 1',
color: Colors.redAccent.shade200,
),
],
)Here is an example of how to customize the appearance of all-day events:
Days View |
Week View |
|---|
//...
allDayEventsTheme: const AllDayEventsTheme(
listMaxRowsVisible: 2,
eventHeight: 32,
backgroundColor: Colors.white,
containerPadding: EdgeInsets.zero,
eventPadding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 4.0),
eventMargin: EdgeInsets.zero,
margin: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 4.0, vertical: 2.0),
borderRadius: 0,
elevation: 0,
alwaysShowEmptyRows: true,
shape: BeveledRectangleBorder(),
showMoreButtonTheme: AllDayEventsShowMoreButtonTheme(
margin: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(
horizontal: 4.0,
vertical: 2.0,
),
padding: EdgeInsets.zero,
height: 24,
)
),
//...The AllDayEventsTheme class provides a customizable theme for rendering all-day events in a day view. This theme allows you to control various aspects of the visual appearance of the all-day events.
Properties
showMoreButtonTheme: An instance of AllDayEventsShowMoreButtonTheme that provides customization options for the "Show More" button.listMaxRowsVisible: Maximum number of rows to show for all-day events.eventHeight: Height of each individual all-day event.textStyle: Text style for the all-day events.containerPadding: Padding for the container of all-day events.eventPadding: Padding for each all-day event.eventMargin: Margin for each all-day event.borderRadius: Border radius for the all-day events.elevation: Elevation over a day view.shape: Shape and border of the views.margin: Padding between the views.
The AllDayEventsShowMoreButtonTheme class provides customization options for the "Show More" button, which is used when there are more all-day events than can be displayed.
Properties
height: Height of the "Show More" button.textStyle: Text style for the "Show More" button.backgroundColor: Background color of the "Show More" button.borderRadius: Border radius for the "Show More" button.padding: Padding for the "Show More" button.margin: Margin for the "Show More" button.
You can also create a custom builder for Show more button.
In this case, you need to handle button clicks yourself.
Days View |
Week View |
|---|
//...
allDayEventsShowMoreBuilder: (context, visible, events) {
return Container(
width: double.maxFinite,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: ExampleColors.black.withOpacity(0.05),
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(2),
),
padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(
horizontal: 4,
vertical: 2,
),
child: Text("show more (${events.length - visible.length})",
style: const TextStyle(
fontSize: 12,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w500,
),
textAlign: TextAlign.center,
)
);
}
//...
There are two callbacks that allow you to handle all-day events: onAllDayEventTap and onAllDayEventsShowMoreTap
//...
onAllDayEventTap: (event) {
//...
},
onAllDayEventsShowMoreTap: (visibleEvents, allEvents) {
//...
},
//...
The package supports custom events. To create a custom event, you need to extend the EditableCalendarEvent class. The following code snippet demonstrates how to create a custom event with image background:
class EventWithLabel extends EditableCalendarEvent {
EventWithLabel(
{required super.id,
required super.start,
required super.duration,
required this.title,
required this.label});
final String title;
final EventLabel label;
@override
EditableCalendarEvent copyWith({DateTime? start, Duration? duration}) {
return EventWithLabel(
id: id,
start: start ?? this.start,
duration: duration ?? this.duration,
label: label,
title: title,
);
}
}
|
|---|
Then you just need create a custom builder for your event:
//...
eventBuilders: {
EventWithLabel: (context, data) {
return _buildEventWithLabel(data);
},
AllDayEventWithLabel: (context, data) {
return _buildEventWithLabel(data, allDay: true);
},
},
//...
Row _buildEventWithLabel(
CalendarEvent data, {
bool allDay = false,
}) {
final event = data as EventWithLabel;
return Row(
children: [
Container(
width: 4,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: event.label.color,
borderRadius: BorderRadius.only(
topLeft: Radius.circular(4),
bottomLeft: Radius.circular(4),
),
),
),
Expanded(
child: Container(
height: double.maxFinite,
decoration: BoxDecoration(
color: event.label.color.withOpacity(0.25),
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(allDay ? 2 : 4),
),
padding: EdgeInsets.all(allDay ? 2 : 8),
child: Column(
mainAxisSize: MainAxisSize.min,
crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.start,
children: [
Expanded(
child: Text(
event.title,
style: const TextStyle(
fontSize: 16,
fontWeight: FontWeight.w500,
),
overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis,
),
),
],
),
),
),
],
);
}
You can override the default long-press actions for each view. The following code snippet demonstrates how to override the default long-press overrideOnEventLongPress callback. This can be also used if you don't need editor functionality.
//...
overrideOnEventLongPress: (details, event) {
print(event);
},
//...
