Templating

Month object

A Month object holds in itself a list of all Events that fall into this month, as well as gives the possibility to iterate over Week object's that fall into the range of this Month object.

Month view

Properties

  • date
    • A Date object of the starting date of the event duration
    • For a Month object of April 2023, this would return the Date object of 2023-04-01
  • startDate
    • Basically the same as the date property
  • endDate
    • The ending date of the Month object's month, e.g - 2023-04-30 in this case
  • previousDate
    • Returns a Date object of the previous month relative to the date property, e.g. 2023-03-01 in this case
  • nextDate
    • Returns a Date object of the next month relative to the date property, e.g. 2023-05-01 in this case
  • events
    • Contains a list of Events that fall into this Month object's range
  • eventCount
    • The number of events in the events property

Methods

  • dateRange(int before, int after)
    • Returns a list of Date objects ranging before number of months before date and after number of months after date
    • E.g. month.dateRange(6, 6) would return a list starting from 2015-10-01 and ending in 2023-10-01
  • containsDate(dateObject)
    • Returns true if the dateObject provided is within the Month object's date range
    • E.g. month.containsDate(event.startDate) would return true if the Month object would be April 2023, and the event.startDate would be 2023-04-15, but false if the event.startDate would be 2023-03-31
