Dynamic event template in FullCalendar

Question

Is there any way to dynamically change event template in FullCalendar?

Update. What I want is to specify new event html (e. g. in eventRender callba

Answer 1

You can add meta information on the event, like classes, and style accordingly:

events: [{
    title: 'Blue Event',
    start: '2014-06-01',
    description: 'Lorem ipsum lorem ipsum',
    class: 'blue main'
}]

And the CSS:

.fc-event.blue {}
.fc-event.main {}

On eventRender insert the classes with

eventRender: function (event, element) {
    element.addClass(event.class)
}

And append more content like:

if (event.description) {
    element.find('.fc-event-inner')
        .append("
" + event.description + "
");
}

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('#calendar').fullCalendar({
        header: { left: '', center: '', right: '' },
        defaultDate: '2014-06-12',
        eventRender: function (event, element) {
            if (event.description) {
                element.find('.fc-event-inner')
                    .append("
" + event.description) + "
";
            }               
            element.addClass(event.class)
        },
        events: [{
            title: 'Blue Event',
            start: '2014-06-01',
            description: 'Lorem ipsum lorem ipsum',
            class: 'blue main'
        }, {
            title: 'More Blue',
            start: '2014-06-01',
            description: 'More lorem ipsum',
            class: 'blue main'
        }, {
            title: 'Long Event',
            start: '2014-06-07',
            end: '2014-06-10',
            class: 'red main'
        }, {
            title: 'Meeting',
            start: '2014-06-12T10:30:00',
            end: '2014-06-12T12:30:00',
            class: 'blue main'
        }, {
            title: 'Lunch',
            start: '2014-06-12T12:00:00',
            class: 'blue main'
        }, {
            title: 'Birthday Party',
            start: '2014-06-13T07:00:00',
            class: 'red main'
        }, ],
    });
