I'm doing it wrong somehow. I'm getting tripped up on timezones with Fullcalendar
. I've tried setting ignoreTimezone
to true and false, but it doesn't seem to matter. It's in the code below in two places because I wasn't sure from the doc where it goes.
My data source is a hidden form field. Data that goes out of FullCalendar
is adjusted by adding 5 hours (CDT). Data that goes in to FullCalendar
isn't adjusted by removing 5 hours.
On the back-end, I'm just saving and returning the JSON string without processing it (or even decoding it)
Page Load:
Data In: Empty, no data
Data Edit: drag from noon to 2pm (CDT), then submit form
Data Out: Use clientEvent to get data, and JSON.stringify to put into form field.
[{"id":6844,"title":"Open","start":"2011-04-19T17:00:00.000Z","end":"2011-04-19T19:00:00.000Z","allDay":false}]
Page Load (after submitting form):
Data In: Use JSON.parse to load data from hidden form field. This is the incoming data, but the event is shifted to 5pm (CDT) in the control.
[{"id":6844,"title":"Open","start":"2011-04-19T17:00:00.000Z","end":"2011-04-19T19:00:00.000Z","allDay":false}]
Data Out: Without changing the control, it's now:
[{"id":6844,"title":"Open","start":"2011-04-19T22:00:00.000Z","end":"2011-04-20T00:00:00.000Z","allDay":false}]
I setup the Fullcalendar
like this:
// Fullcalendar for business hours page
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('#edit-submit').bind("click", business_hours_set);
jQuery('#edit-preview').bind("click", business_hours_set);
jQuery('#calendar').fullCalendar({
// configure display
header: {
left: '',
center: '',
right: ''
},
ignoreTimezone: false,
defaultView: 'agendaWeek',
allDaySlot: false,
firstHour: 8,
// configure selection for event creation
selectable: true,
selectHelper: true,
select: business_hours_add,
// configure data source
editable: true,
eventSources: [
{
events: jQuery.parseJSON(jQuery('#fullcalendar_data').val()),
color: '#992B0A',
textColor: 'white',
ignoreTimezone: false
}
],
// configure editing
eventClick: function(calEvent) {
business_hours_delete(calEvent.id);
}
});
alert(jQuery('#fullcalendar_data').val());
});
function business_hours_add(startDate, endDate) {
var calendar = jQuery('#calendar');
var newid = Math.ceil(Math.random()*64000);
calendar.fullCalendar('renderEvent',
{
id: newid,
title: "Open",
start: startDate,
end: endDate,
allDay: false
},
true // make the event "stick"
);
calendar.fullCalendar('unselect');
}
var business_hours_selectedId = -1;
function business_hours_delete(id) {
business_hours_selectedId = id;
jQuery( "#dialog-confirm" ).dialog({
resizable: false,
height:160,
modal: true,
buttons: {
"Yes, delete!": function() {
calendar = jQuery('#calendar');
calendar.fullCalendar( 'removeEvents', business_hours_selectedId);
jQuery( this ).dialog( "close" );
},
Cancel: function() {
jQuery( this ).dialog( "close" );
}
}
}, id);
}
function business_hours_set() {
var data = jQuery('#calendar').fullCalendar( 'clientEvents' );
// data is cyclical. Create a new data structure to stringify.
var ret = [];
for(var i=0; i<data.length; i++) {
var datum = {
id: data[i].id,
title: data[i].title,
start: data[i].start,
end: data[i].end,
allDay: data[i].allDay
}
ret[i] = datum;
}
// stringify and return
jQuery('#fullcalendar_data').val(JSON.stringify(ret));
alert(JSON.stringify(ret));
}
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance, Mike
