This bundle provides some utilities for using the iCalcreator PHP library (http://kigkonsult.se/iCalcreator/index.php) in Symfony.
Download via Composer
composer require dyvelop/icalcreator-bundleThis project requires the packagist distribution from https://github.com/iCalcreator/iCalcreator in version 2.22.
Enable the Bundle in the app/AppKernel.php file in your Symfony project:
// File: app/AppKernel.php
class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
public function registerBundles()
{
$bundles = array(
// ...
new \Dyvelop\ICalCreatorBundle\DyvelopICalCreatorBundle(),
);
// ...
return $bundles;
}
// ...
}You can change the default unique ID for calendars with following configuration.
dyvelop_icalcreator:
default_unique_id: DyvelopICalCreatorBundleIf you want to create calendar events in a timezone with daylight saving time (or summer time), you can set a default timezone globally via config:
dyvelop_icalcreator:
default_timezone: Europe/BerlinCreate a new calendar:
$config = array(
'unique_id' => 'My unique calendar name',
'format' => 'ical', // or 'xcal'
'filename' => 'my-calendar.ics' // or 'my-calendar.xml'
);
$calendar = $this->get('dyvelop_icalcreator.factory')->create($config);Create a new calendar event:
$event = $calendar->newEvent();
$event->setUid('foo');
$event->setSummary('Bar');
$event->setDtstart(2016, 10, 6, 20);
$event->setDtend(2016, 10, 6, 21);See http://kigkonsult.se/iCalcreator/docs/using.html for detailed documentation of the iCalcreate PHP library.
After creating a calendar you can use the CalendarResponse to render the file in your Symfony controller.
namespace AppBundle/Controller;
use Dyvelop\ICalCreatorBundle\Response\CalendarResponse;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\Controller;
class DefaultController extends Controller
{
public function indexAction()
{
$calendar = $this->get('dyvelop_icalcreator.factory')->create();
// add events to calendar etc.
// ...
return new CalendarResponse($calendar);
}
}Using the CalendarAttachment class you can attach your calendar file in a Swiftmailer mail message.
use Dyvelop\ICalCreatorBundle\Mailer\CalendarAttachment;
// create a new mail message via Swiftmailer
$mailer = $this->get('mailer');
$message = $mailer->createMessage();
// create calendar
$calendar = $this->get('dyvelop_icalcreator.factory')->create();
// add events to calendar etc.
// ...
// add calender attachment
$attachment = new CalendarAttachment($calendar);
$message->attach($attachment);
// add other message configurations like subject or body
// ...
$mailer->send($message);
