Calendar

Calendar Library written in PHP

Requirements

Calendar requires PHP 8.0+ and Carbon v2.

Installation

Add the following above the require block in your composer.json:

"repositories": [
    {
        "type": "vcs",
        "url": "https://github.com/kmdwebdesigns/calendar"
    }
],

Then run the following in your terminal:

composer require "carvefx/calendar:^4.0"

Or, add "carvefx/calendar": "^4.0" to your composer.json and then run composer update in your terminal.

Usage

use Calendar\Calendar;

$calendar = new Calendar(2014, 8);

foreach($calendar->getWeeks() as $week) {
    foreach($week->getDays() as $day) {
        $day->toDateString(); // 2014-07-27
        $day->isBlankDay(); // true
    }
}

Documentation

Calendar comes with 3 main classes:

• \Calendar\Calendar: represents a display of the current month, including the blank days that belong to the previous or next months
• \Calendar\Week: represents 7 days, regardless of the month it belongs to
• \Calendar\Day: represents a single day and wraps around the \Carbon\Carbon class

By default, the calendar will start on Monday. You can set which day of the week your calendar starts on by using the setWeekStart method:

$calendar = new Calendar(2014, 8);
$calendar->setWeekStart(CarbonInterface:SUNDAY); // First day of the week is now Sunday

Also by default, the calendar will display 6 weeks no matter how many weeks the actual month needs. This can be configured with the setVariableWeeks method:

$calendar = new Calendar(2017, 8);
$calendar->setVariableWeeks(true);

$calendar->getWeeks(); // returns 5 weeks, instead of the normal 6, because the last week contains all blank days

Calendar API

// Create a new Calendar object
$calendar = new Calendar(2014, 8);
// Or create a new Calendar object with a specific timezone
$calendar = new Calendar(2014, 8, 'America/Chicago');
$calendar = new Calendar(2014, 8, new DateTimeZone('America/Chicago'));

$calendar->setYear(2015);
$calendar->setMonth(7);
$calendar->setTimezone($timezone); // where $timezone is either a bare timezone string, or a DateTimeZone object
$calendar->getTimezone(); // returns the currently set timezone of the calendar as a DateTimeZone object
$calendar->setWeekStart(CarbonInterface::SUNDAY); // or you may use the zero-indexed day integer
$calendar->getWeekStart(); // returns the current start of the week zero-indexed day integer
$calendar->getFirstDay(); // returns the first day of the month
$calendar->getLastDay(); // returns the last day of the month
$calendar->getWeeks() // returns an array of Week objects

⚠️ Note! ⚠️

Setting the timezone may have unintended consequences. Daylight Savings Time may cause duplicate days. To try and work around this, the hour component of the day has been set to 5 since it seems to be after most countries have finished changing. If this causes problems, please open an issue.

Week API

$first_day = new Day(2014, 07, 01);
$week = new Week($first_day, int $currentMonth = null, int $weekStart = CarbonInterface::MONDAY); // constructor requires the day the week starts at
$week->getDays(); // returns an array containing 7 Day objects

Day API

$day = new Day(2014, 07, 01);
$day->setBlankDay(false);
$day->isBlankDay(); // returns a bool value, shows whether the current day is part of the current month

// Any of the \Carbon\Carbon methods work
$day->getDateString(); // 2014-07-01
$day->month; // 7
