Setting holidays in the rich:calendar

[manishsjain]

Hi,

How do it set custom holidays in the rich calendar other than the weekend dates (sat/sun). I would like to set 25 December, 1 January etc also similar to weekend dates.

Please help.

you may use two approaches

in ajax mode or using preloads - you may provide - dataModel which should return classes for every day

Or you may use JS function which will return styleClass name to the day. In this case you'll be need to implement the function which will return this class for given date, but you'l' be also responsible for saving this state on server side if you need.

Yes, it would be nice to have some list off additional dates that are like sat/sun. attribute name will be highlitedDates and it will be a List. Somewhere in ours backing beans we set that list.

I now there is already boundaryDatesMode, but highlitedDates (holidayDates) should also be implemented!

You could implement any styles/content/disablement using dataModel

Hi,

I have added following code


public CalendarDataModelItem[] getData(Date[] dateArray) {
if (dateArray == null) {
return null;
}

CalendarDataModelItem[] items = new CalendarDataModelItem[dateArray.length];
for (int i = 0; i < dateArray.length; i++) {
System.out.println("item is:"+ dateArray);
items = createDataModelItem(dateArray);
System.out.println("item is:"+ items.getStyleClass());
}

return items;
}

protected CalendarDataModelItem createDataModelItem(Date date) {
CalendarDataModelItemImpl item = new CalendarDataModelItemImpl();

System.out.println("the day is:"+date.getDay());
if(date.getDay() > 3)
item.setStyleClass("rich-calendar-weekends");
item.setData(date);


return item;
}

But on the screen i cannot see the particular date getting rendered as per the spcecified style class. If I see the source it shows the proper style class on dates but they are not rendered.

Am i missing something? Please help

I would like to set a style class for holidays.
Is it possible to see code snippets with the 2 approaches:

you may use two approaches

in ajax mode or using preloads - you may provide - dataModel which should return classes for every day

Or you may use JS function which will return styleClass name to the day. In this case you'll be need to implement the function which will return this class for given date, but you'l' be also responsible for saving this state on server side if you need.

Thanks

I tried both the alternates suggested but it seems not to work. Whenever i set the syle class for any particular date it sets for all the days in that month
