Holidays in Angular Gantt component

27 Apr 20243 minutes to read

Non-working days in a project can be displayed in the Gantt component using the holidays property. Each holiday can be defined with the following properties:

• from: Defines start date of the holiday(s).
• to: Defines end date of the holiday(s).
• label: Defines the description or label for the holiday.
• cssClass: Formats the holidays label in the Gantt chart.

To highlight the days, inject the DayMarkersService module in the provide section.

The following code example shows how to display the non-working days in the Gantt component.

app.component.ts

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { GanttModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-gantt'
import { DayMarkersService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-gantt'




import { Component, ViewEncapsulation, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { Gantt } from '@syncfusion/ej2-gantt';
import { projectNewData } from './data';

@Component({
imports: [
         GanttModule
    ],

providers: [DayMarkersService],
standalone: true,
    selector: 'app-root',
    template:
       `<ejs-gantt id="ganttDefault" height="430px" [dataSource]="data"  [taskFields]="taskSettings" [holidays] = "holidays"></ejs-gantt>`,
    encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent{
    // Data for Gantt
    public data?: object[];
    public taskSettings?: object;
    public holidays?: object[];
    public ngOnInit(): void {
        this.data = projectNewData;
        this.taskSettings = {
            id: 'TaskID',
            name: 'TaskName',
            startDate: 'StartDate',
            duration: 'Duration',
            progress: 'Progress',
            child: 'subtasks'
        };
        this.holidays = [{
            from: "04/04/2019",
            to:"04/05/2019",
            label: " Public holidays",
            cssClass:"e-custom-holiday"
        },
        {
            from: "04/12/2019",
            to:"04/12/2019",
            label: " LOcal holidays",
            cssClass:"e-custom-holiday"
        }];
    }
}

main.ts

import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
