Fork of dmix/weekly_builder
Modifying weekly builder to meet the needs of our project.
script/plugin install git://github.com/timstephenson/weekly_builder.git
Then check the output if all images and stylesheets have been copied successfully.
The calendar builder: <% weekly_calendar(@events, :date => @date, :include_24_hours => true) do |w| %> <% w.week(:business_hours => params[:business_hours], :clickable_hours => true) do |event,truncate| %> <%= event.starts_at.strftime('%I:%M%p') %> <%= link_to truncate(event.name,truncate), event_path(event) %> <% end -%> <% end -%>
The Next/Previous week links helper: <% weekly_links(:date => @date) %>
In your controller: @date = Time.parse("#{params[:start_date]} || Time.now.utc") @start_date = Date.new(@date.year, @date.month, @date.day) @events = Event.find(:all, :conditions => ['starts_at between ? and ?', @start_date, @start_date + 7])
The event model only requires 2 attributes: starts_at:datetime and ends_at:datetime to calculate width and position on the calendar. In my demo app I ask the user for one date/time (starts_at) and estimated time to complete (for example 2hrs), it then calculates ends_at after it is submitted.
UPDATE: Added a truncate_width method so that long event names are truncated in proportion to the width of the event, this is passed through the week block with |truncate|.
:include_24_hours: Default hours are 6am-8pm, if this set as "true" then an option to switch to a 24-hour schedule appears at the bottom
