FullCalendar in Django
You can use following code to add, remove, update event in full calendar:
model:
class Events(models.Model):
id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
name = models.CharField(max_length=255,null=True,blank=True)
start = models.DateTimeField(null=True,blank=True)
end = models.DateTimeField(null=True,blank=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.name
view:
def calendar(request):
all_events = Events.objects.all()
context = {
"events":all_events,
}
return render(request,'calendar.html',context)
def all_events(request):
all_events = Events.objects.all()
out = []
for event in all_events:
out.append({
'title': event.name,
'id': event.id,
'start': event.start.strftime("%m/%d/%Y, %H:%M:%S"),
'end': event.end.strftime("%m/%d/%Y, %H:%M:%S"),
})
return JsonResponse(out, safe=False)
def add_event(request):
start = request.GET.get("start", None)
end = request.GET.get("end", None)
title = request.GET.get("title", None)
event = Events(name=str(title), start=start, end=end)
event.save()
data = {}
return JsonResponse(data)
def update(request):
start = request.GET.get("start", None)
end = request.GET.get("end", None)
title = request.GET.get("title", None)
id = request.GET.get("id", None)
event = Events.objects.get(id=id)
event.start = start
event.end = end
event.name = title
event.save()
data = {}
return JsonResponse(data)
def remove(request):
id = request.GET.get("id", None)
event = Events.objects.get(id=id)
event.delete()
data = {}
return JsonResponse(data)

Example:To add event to fullcalendar you should add event to your model or if you don't want to save them you should create event and send to fullcalendar(in def calendar). For example to add event to all Sundays of 2020:
view:
def calendar(request):
from datetime import date, timedelta
d = date(2020, 1, 1)
d += timedelta(days=6 - d.weekday()) # First Sunday
all_sunday_in_2020 = []
while d.year != 2021:
all_sunday_in_2020.append({'name': 'my-title', 'start': d, 'end': d
+ timedelta(days=1)})
d += timedelta(days=7)
return render(request,'calendar.html',{'events':all_sunday_in_2020})
Since your question shows you haven't tried anything , guessing you know javascript and tried some hands on full calendar js.
Suppose you have model named Event for displaying different events in calendar.
class Events(models.Model):
even_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
event_name = models.CharField(max_length=255,null=True,blank=True)
start_date = models.DateTimeField(null=True,blank=True)
end_date = models.DateTimeField(null=True,blank=True)
event_type = models.CharField(max_length=10,null=True,blank=True)
def __str__(self):
return self.event_name
In your views.py
def event(request):
all_events = Events.objects.all()
get_event_types = Events.objects.only('event_type')
# if filters applied then get parameter and filter based on condition else return object
if request.GET:
event_arr = []
if request.GET.get('event_type') == "all":
all_events = Events.objects.all()
else:
all_events = Events.objects.filter(event_type__icontains=request.GET.get('event_type'))
for i in all_events:
event_sub_arr = {}
event_sub_arr['title'] = i.event_name
start_date = datetime.datetime.strptime(str(i.start_date.date()), "%Y-%m-%d").strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
end_date = datetime.datetime.strptime(str(i.end_date.date()), "%Y-%m-%d").strftime("%Y-%m-%d")
event_sub_arr['start'] = start_date
event_sub_arr['end'] = end_date
event_arr.append(event_sub_arr)
return HttpResponse(json.dumps(event_arr))
context = {
"events":all_events,
"get_event_types":get_event_types,
}
return render(request,'admin/poll/event_management.html',context)
And finally in your template setup full calendar with including necessary CSS,JS Files and HTML code.And then ,
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
defaultDate: '2016-07-19',
editable: true,
eventLimit: true, // allow "more" link when too many events
events: [
{% for i in events %}
{
title: "{{ i.event_name}}",
start: '{{ i.start_date|date:"Y-m-d" }}',
end: '{{ i.end_date|date:"Y-m-d" }}',
},
{% endfor %}
]
});
});
</script>
Dynamically on some event you need to change events for example by changing dropdown you need to filter events ,
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.event_types').on('change',function(){
var event_type = $.trim($(this).val());
$.ajax({
url: "{% url 'manage-event' %}",
type: 'GET',
data:{"event_type":event_type},
cache: false,
success: function (response) {
var event_arr = $.parseJSON(response);
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('removeEvents');
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('addEventSource', event_arr);
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('rerenderEvents' );
},
error: function () {
alert("error");
}
})
})
})
