zpzMdCalendar

zpzMdCalendar is a calendar module designed for use with Angular Material which allows for date selection and event previewing.

Documentation is not complete yet but it's enough to get you up with your first instance of it. See the /demo folder to check out how to create events and display them.

Installation

Use either Bower or NPM to install zpzMdCalendar as follows:

Bower

bower install zpz-md-calendar

NPM

npm install zpz-md-calendar

Usage

Include Files

<script src="/path/to/bower_components/zpz-md-calendar/dist/zpz-md-calendar.min.js"></script>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/path/to/bower_components/zpz-md-calendar/dist/zpz-md-calendar.min.css" />

Add Angular Dependencies

Add the zpzMdCalendar module to your own app like this:

angular.module('YourApp', [
	/*other modules...*/
	'zpzMdCalendar'
	/*other modules...*/
]);

Creating a View-Only Calendar

In your HTML, use the <zpz-md-calendar> directive to add a calendar view there.

<zpz-md-calendar></zpz-md-calendar>

See /demo/eg1.viewonly.html.

Creating a Calendar with a Model

Use the ng-model attribute to assign a local variable to collect information from the <zpz-md-calendar> directive

<zpz-md-calendar
	ngModel='model'
></zpz-md-calendar>

Add a $scope.model to your controller.

angular.module('YourApp').controller('yourController', [
	/// other dependencies ...
	'zpzMdCalendarSvc',
	/// other dependencies ...
	function(
		/// other dependencies ...
		zpzMdCalendarSvc
		/// other dependencies ...
	) {
		$scope.model = null;
	}
]);

You will be able to use $scope.model after <zpz-md-calendar> has been initialised.

Initializing Calendar with Data

Add a ngModel attribute to the <zpz-md-calendar> directive.

<zpz-md-calendar
	ngModel='model'
></zpz-md-calendar>

Add a $scope.model to your controller.

angular.module('YourApp').controller('yourController', [
	/// other dependencies ...
	'zpzMdCalendarSvc',
	/// other dependencies ...
	function(
		/// other dependencies ...
		zpzMdCalendarSvc
		/// other dependencies ...
	) {
		$scope.model = [
			zpzMdCalendarSvc.createEvent(
				'Event Title',
				'Event Description',
				// start timing
				new Date(),
				// end timing (optional)
				new Date((new Date()).getTime() + (1000*60*60*24)),
				// options (optional)
				null,
				// other data (optional)
				{
					address: '...'
					contactPerson: 'John Doe',
					contactNumber: '123456789'
				}
			)
		];
	}
]);

Initializing Calendar with Configuration

Add a ngConfig attribute to the <zpz-md-calendar> directive.

<zpz-md-calendar
	ngConfig='config'
	ngModel='model'
></zpz-md-calendar>

angular.module('YourApp').controller('yourController', [
	/// other dependencies ...
	'zpzMdCalendarSvc',
	/// other dependencies ...
	function(
		/// other dependencies ...
		zpzMdCalendarSvc
		/// other dependencies ...
	) {
		$scope.config = zpzMdCalendarSvc.constant.config.default;
		$scope.model = 
	}
]);
