Change non workingday in Angular Gantt component

28 Sep 20233 minutes to read

Non-working days/weekend are used to represent the non-productive days in a project. You can define the non-working days in a week using the workWeek property in Gantt.

app.component.ts

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

@Component({
    selector: 'app-root',
    template:
       `<ejs-gantt id="ganttDefault" height="430px" [dataSource]="data" [taskFields]="taskSettings"  [workWeek]="workWeek"></ejs-gantt>`,
    encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent{
    // Data for Gantt
    public data?: object[];
    public taskSettings?: object;
     public workWeek?: object;

    public ngOnInit(): void {
        this.data = editingData;
        this.taskSettings = {
            id: 'TaskID',
            name: 'TaskName',
            startDate: 'StartDate',
            endDate: 'EndDate',
            duration: 'Duration',
            progress: 'Progress',
            child: 'subtasks'
        };
        this.workWeek = ["Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday"];
    }
}

app.module.ts

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { GanttModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-gantt';
import { DayMarkersService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-gantt';

/**
 * Module
 */
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        BrowserModule, GanttModule
    ],
    declarations: [AppComponent],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent],
    providers: [DayMarkersService]
})
export class AppModule { }

main.ts

import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';

import 'zone.js';
enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);

By default, Saturdays and Sundays are considered as non-working days/weekend in a project.
In the Gantt component, you can make weekend as working day by setting the includeWeekend property to true.
