Resources in EJ2 JavaScript Schedule control

12 Jul 202424 minutes to read

Resources and grouping support allows the Scheduler to be shared by multiple resources. Also, the appointments of each resources are displayed under relevant resources. Each resource in the Scheduler is arranged in a column/row wise order, with individual spacing to display all its respective appointments on a single page. It also supports the multiple levels of grouping of resources, thus enabling the categorization of resources in a hierarchical structure and shows it either in expandable groups (Timeline views) or else vertical hierarchy one after the other (Calendar views).

It is also possible to assign one or more resources to the same appointment, by allowing multiple selection of resource options available in the event editor window.

The HTML5 JavaScript Scheduler groups the resources based on different criteria. It includes grouping appointments based on resources, grouping resources based on dates, and timeline scheduling. Also, the data for resources bind with Scheduler either as a local JSON collection or URL, retrieving data from remote data services.

Resource fields

The default options available within the resources collection are as follows,

Field name Type Description
field String A value that binds to the resource field of event object.
title String It holds the title of the resource field to be displayed on the event editor window.
name String A unique resource name used for differentiating various resource objects while grouping.
allowMultiple Boolean When set to true, the allowMultiple property allows the selection of multiple resource names, thus creating multiple instances of the same appointment for the selected resources.
dataSource Object Assigns the resource dataSource, where data can be passed either as an array of JavaScript objects, or else can create an instance of DataManager in case of processing remote data and can be assigned to the dataSource property. With the remote data assigned to dataSource, check the available adaptors to customize the data processing.
query Query Defines the external query that will be executed along with the data processing.
idField String Binds the resource ID field name from the resources dataSource.
expandedField String Binds the expandedField name from the resources dataSource. It usually holds boolean value which decide whether the resource of timeline views is in collapse or expand state on initial load.
textField String Binds the textField name from the resources dataSource. It usually holds the resource names.
groupIDField String Binds the groupIDField name from the resource dataSource. It usually holds the value of resource IDs of parent level resources.
colorField String Binds the colorField name from the resource dataSource. The color value mapped in this field will be applied to the events of resources.
startHourField String Binds the startHourField name from the resource dataSource. It allows to provide different work start hour for the resources.
endHourField String Binds the endHourField name from the resource dataSource. It allows to provide different work end hour for the resources.
workDaysField String Binds the workDaysField name from the resources dataSource. It allows to provide different working days collection for the resources.
cssClassField String Binds the custom cssClassField name from the resources dataSource. It maps the CSS class written for the specific resources and applies it to the events of those resources.

Resource data binding

The data for resources can bind with Scheduler either as a local JSON collection or a service URL, retrieving resource data from remote data services.

Using local JSON data

The following code example depicts how to bind the local JSON data to the dataSource of resources collection.

import { Schedule, Week, Month, Agenda, TimelineViews, TimelineMonth } from '@syncfusion/ej2-schedule';
import { resourceData } from './datasource.ts';

Schedule.Inject( Week, Month, TimelineViews, TimelineMonth, Agenda);
let scheduleObj: Schedule = new Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    currentView: 'Week',
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek','TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
    resources: [{
        field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
        name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
            { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
            { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
        ],
        textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Using remote service URL

The following code example depicts how to bind the remote data for resources dataSource.

import { DataManager, UrlAdaptor } from '@syncfusion/ej2-data';
import { Schedule, Week, Month, Agenda, TimelineViews, TimelineMonth } from '@syncfusion/ej2-schedule';
import { resourceData } from './datasource.ts';

let resource: DataManager = new DataManager({
    url: 'Home/GetResourceData',
    adaptor: new UrlAdaptor,
    crossDomain: true
});

Schedule.Inject( Week, Month, TimelineViews, TimelineMonth, Agenda);
let scheduleObj: Schedule = new Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    currentView: 'Week',
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek','TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
    resources: [{
        field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
        name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: resource,
        textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Scheduler with multiple resources

It is possible to display the Scheduler in default mode without visually showcasing all the resources in it, but allowing to assign the required resources to the appointments through the event editor resource options.

The appointments belonging to the different resources will be displayed altogether on the default Scheduler, which will be differentiated based on the resource color assigned in the resources (depicting to which resource that particular appointment belongs) collection.

Example: To display default Scheduler with multiple resource options in the event editor, ignore the group option and simply define the resources property with all its internal options.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    currentView: 'Week',
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
    resources: [{
            field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
            name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
            dataSource: [
                { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
                { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
                { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
            ],
            textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
        }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Setting allowMultiple to true in the above code example allows you to select multiple resources from the event editor and also creates multiple copies of the same appointment in the Scheduler for each resources while rendering.

Resource grouping

Resource grouping support allows the Scheduler to group the resources in a hierarchical structure both as an expandable groups (Timeline views) and as vertical hierarchy displaying resources one after the other (Resources view).

Scheduler supports both single and multiple levels of resource grouping that can be customized both in timeline and vertical Scheduler views.

Vertical resource view

The following code example displays how the multiple resources are grouped and its events are portrayed in the default calendar views.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    currentView: 'Week',
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'Agenda'],
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 4),
    group: {
        byGroupID: false,
        resources: ['Projects', 'Categories']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'ProjectId', title: 'Choose Project', name: 'Projects',
        dataSource: [
            { text: 'PROJECT 1', id: 1, color: '#cb6bb2' },
            { text: 'PROJECT 2', id: 2, color: '#56ca85' },
            { text: 'PROJECT 3', id: 3, color: '#df5286' }
        ],
        textField: 'text', idField: 'id', colorField: 'color'
        }, {
            field: 'TaskId', title: 'Category',
            name: 'Categories', allowMultiple: true,
            dataSource: [
                { text: 'Development', id: 1, color: '#df5286' },
                { text: 'Testing', id: 2, color: '#7fa900' }
            ],
        textField: 'text', idField: 'id', colorField: 'color'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceConferenceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Timeline resource view

The following code example depicts how to group the multiple resources on Timeline Scheduler views and its relevant events are displayed accordingly under those resources.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    currentView: 'TimelineWeek',
    views: ['TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 4),
    group: {
        resources: ['Rooms', 'Owners']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'RoomId', title: 'Room',
        name: 'Rooms', allowMultiple: false,
        dataSource: [
            { RoomText: 'ROOM 1', Id: 1, RoomColor: '#cb6bb2' },
            { RoomText: 'ROOM 2', Id: 2, RoomColor: '#56ca85' }
            ],
            textField: 'RoomText', idField: 'Id', colorField: 'RoomColor'
        }, {
        field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
        name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
            { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerGroupId: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
            { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
        ],
        textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', groupIDField: 'OwnerGroupId', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Grouping single-level resources

This kind of grouping allows the Scheduler to display all the resources at a single level simultaneously. The appointments mapped under resources will be displayed with the colors as per the colorField defined on the resources collection.

Example: To display the Scheduler with single level resource grouping,

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
    group: {
        resources: ['Owners']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
        name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
            { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
            { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
        ],
        textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

The name field defined in the resources collection namely Owners will be mapped within the group property, in order to enable the grouping option with those resource levels on the Scheduler.

Grouping multi-level resources

It is possible to group the resources of Scheduler in multiple levels, by mapping the child resources to each parent resource. In the following example, there are 2 levels of resources, on which the second level resources are defined with groupID mapping to the first level resource’s ID so as to establish the parent-child relationship between them.

Example: To display the Scheduler with multiple level resource grouping options,

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
    group: {
        resources: ['Rooms', 'Owners']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'RoomId', title: 'Room',
        name: 'Rooms', allowMultiple: false,
        dataSource: [
            { RoomText: 'ROOM 1', Id: 1, RoomGroupId: 1, RoomColor: '#cb6bb2' },
            { RoomText: 'ROOM 2', Id: 2, RoomGroupId: 2, RoomColor: '#56ca85' }
        ],
        textField: 'RoomText', idField: 'Id', groupIDField: 'RoomGroupId', colorField: 'RoomColor'
        },
        {
        field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
        name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
            { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerGroupId: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
            { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
        ],
        textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', groupIDField: 'OwnerGroupId', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

One-to-One grouping

In multi-level grouping, Scheduler usually groups the resources on the child level based on the GroupID that maps with the Id field of parent level resources (as byGroupID set to true by default). There are also option which allows you to group all the child resource(s) against each of its parent resource(s). To enable this kind of grouping, set false to the byGroupID option within the group property. In the following code example, there are two levels of resources, on which all the 3 resources at the child level is mapped one to one with each resource on the first level.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    currentView: 'Week',

Grouping resources by date

It groups the number of resources under each date and is applicable only on the calendar views such as Day, Week, Work Week, Month, Agenda and Month-Agenda. To enable such grouping, set byDate option to true within the group property.

Example: To display the Scheduler with resources grouped by date,

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
    group: {
        byDate: true,
        resources: ['Owners']
    },
    resources: [{
            field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
            name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
            dataSource: [
                { text: 'Alice', id: 1, color: '#1aaa55' },
                { text: 'Smith', id: 2, color: '#7fa900' }
            ],
            textField: 'text', idField: 'id', colorField: 'color'
        }],
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'Agenda'],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

This kind of grouping by date is not applicable on any of the timeline views.

Customizing parent resource cells

In timeline view work cells of parent resource can be customized by checking the elementType as resourceGroupCells in the event renderCell. In the following code example, background color of the work hours has been changed.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    currentView: 'TimelineWeek',
    views: ['TimelineDay', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth'],
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 4),
    group: {
        resources: ['Rooms', 'Owners']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'RoomId', title: 'Room',
        name: 'Rooms', allowMultiple: false,
        dataSource: [
            { RoomText: 'ROOM 1', Id: 1, RoomColor: '#cb6bb2' },
            { RoomText: 'ROOM 2', Id: 2, RoomColor: '#56ca85' }
            ],
            textField: 'RoomText', idField: 'Id', colorField: 'RoomColor'
        }, {
        field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
        name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
            { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerGroupId: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
            { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
        ],
        textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', groupIDField: 'OwnerGroupId', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData },
    renderCell: function onRenderCell(args) {
      if (args.elementType == 'resourceGroupCells' && args.element.className.indexOf('e-work-hours') > 0) {
        args.element.style.background = "#FAFAE3";
      }
    }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Working with shared events

Multiple resources can share the same events, thus allowing the CRUD action made on it to reflect on all other shared instances simultaneously. To enable such option, set allowGroupEdit option to true within the group property. With this property enabled, a single appointment object will be maintained within the appointment collection, even if it is shared by more than one resource – whereas the resource fields of such appointment object will be in array which hold the IDs of the multiple resources.

Any actions such as create, edit or delete held on any one of the shared event instances, will be reflected on all other related instances visible on the UI.

Example: To edit all the resource events simultaneously,

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 5, 5),
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
    currentView: 'Week',
    group: {
        allowGroupEdit: true,
        resources: ['Conferences']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'ConferenceId', title: 'Conference',
        name: 'Conferences', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { Text: 'Margaret', Id: 1, Color: '#1aaa55' },
            { Text: 'Robert', Id: 2, Color: '#357cd2' },
            { Text: 'Laura', Id: 3, Color: '#7fa900' }
        ],
            textField: 'Text', idField: 'Id', colorField: 'Color'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceConferenceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Simple resource header customization

It is possible to customize the resource header cells using built-in template option and change the look and appearance of it in both the vertical and timeline view modes. All the resource related fields and other information can be accessed within the resource header template option.

Example: To customize the resource header and display it along with the designation resource field, refer the below code example.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'Agenda', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth'],
    resourceHeaderTemplate: '#resourceTemplate',
    group: {
        resources: ['Doctors']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'DoctorId', title: 'Doctor Name', name: 'Doctors',
            dataSource: [
                { text: 'Will Smith', id: 1, color: '#ea7a57', designation: 'Cardioligst' },
                { text: 'Alice', id: 2, color: '#7fa900', designation: 'Neurologist' },
                { text: 'Robson', id: 3, color: '#7fa900', designation: 'Orthopedic Surgeon'  }
            ],
        textField: 'text', idField: 'id', colorField: 'color', designationField: 'designation'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: doctorData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Customizing resource header with multiple columns

It is possible to customize the resource headers to display with multiple columns such as Room, Type and Capacity. The following code example depicts the way to achieve it and is applicable only on timeline views.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 7, 1),
    resourceHeaderTemplate: '#resourceTemplate',
    views: ['TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth'],
    group: {
        resources: ['MeetingRoom']
    },
        resources: [{
            field: 'RoomId', title: 'Room Type',
            name: 'MeetingRoom', allowMultiple: true,
            dataSource: [
                { text: 'Jammy', id: 1, color: '#ea7a57', capacity: 20, type: 'Conference' },
                { text: 'Tweety', id: 2, color: '#7fa900', capacity: 7, type: 'Cabin' },
                { text: 'Nestle', id: 3, color: '#5978ee', capacity: 5, type: 'Cabin' },
                { text: 'Phoenix', id: 4, color: '#fec200', capacity: 15, type: 'Conference' },
                { text: 'Mission', id: 5, color: '#df5286', capacity: 25, type: 'Conference' },
                { text: 'Hangout', id: 6, color: '#00bdae', capacity: 10, type: 'Cabin' },
                { text: 'Rick Roll', id: 7, color: '#865fcf', capacity: 20, type: 'Conference' },
                { text: 'Rainbow', id: 8, color: '#1aaa55', capacity: 8, type: 'Cabin' },
                { text: 'Swarm', id: 9, color: '#df5286', capacity: 30, type: 'Conference' },
                { text: 'Photogenic', id: 10, color: '#710193', capacity: 25, type: 'Conference' }
            ],
            textField: 'text', idField: 'id', colorField: 'color'
        }],
        renderCell: function (args) {
            if (args.elementType === 'emptyCells' && args.element.classList.contains('e-resource-left-td')) {
                var target = args.element.querySelector('.e-resource-text');
                target.innerHTML = '<div class="name">Rooms</div><div class="type">Type</div><div class="capacity">Capacity</div>';
            }
        },
    eventSettings: { dataSource: roomData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Collapse/Expand child resources in timeline views

It is possible to expand and collapse the resources which have child resource in timeline views dynamically. By default, resources are in expanded state with their child resource. We can collapse and expand the child resources in UI by setting expandedField option as false whereas its default value is true.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    currentView: 'TimelineWeek',
    views: ['TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 4),
    group: {
        resources: ['Rooms', 'Owners']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'RoomId', title: 'Room',
        name: 'Rooms', allowMultiple: false,
        dataSource: [
            { RoomText: 'ROOM 1', Id: 1, RoomColor: '#cb6bb2', IsExpand: false },
            { RoomText: 'ROOM 2', Id: 2, RoomColor: '#56ca85' }
            ],
            textField: 'RoomText', idField: 'Id', colorField: 'RoomColor', expandedField: 'IsExpand'
        }, {
        field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
        name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
            { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerGroupId: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
            { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
        ],
        textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', groupIDField: 'OwnerGroupId', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Displaying tooltip for resource headers

It is possible to display tooltips over the resource headers showing the resource information. By default, there won’t be any tooltips displayed on the resource headers, and to enable it, you need to assign the customized template design to the headerTooltipTemplate option within the group property.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
  width: '100%',
  height: '550px',
  selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
  views: ['Week', 'Month', 'Agenda', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth'],
  group: {
    resources: ['Rooms', 'Owners'],
    headerTooltipTemplate: '#tooltipTemplate'
  },
  resources: [{
    field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
    name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
    dataSource: [
      { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
      { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerGroupId: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
      { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
    ],
    textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', groupIDField: 'OwnerGroupId', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
  }
  ],
  eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Choosing among resource colors for appointments

By default, the colors defined on the top level resources collection will be applied for the events. In case, if you want to apply specific resource color to events irrespective of its top-level parent resource color, it can be achieved by defining resourceColorField option within the eventSettings property.

In the following example, the colors mentioned in the second level will get applied over the events.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
  width: '100%',
  height: '550px',
  views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
  selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
  group: {
    resources: ['Rooms', 'Owners']
  },
  resources: [{
    field: 'RoomId', title: 'Room',
    name: 'Rooms', allowMultiple: false,
    dataSource: [
      { RoomText: 'ROOM 1', Id: 1, RoomGroupId: 1, RoomColor: '#cb6bb2' },
      { RoomText: 'ROOM 2', Id: 2, RoomGroupId: 2, RoomColor: '#56ca85' }
    ],
    textField: 'RoomText', idField: 'Id', groupIDField: 'RoomGroupId', colorField: 'RoomColor'
  }, {
    field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
    name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
    dataSource: [
      { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
      { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerGroupId: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
      { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
    ],
    textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', groupIDField: 'OwnerGroupId', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
  }],
  eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData, resourceColorField: 'Rooms' }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

new ej.buttons.RadioButton({ value: 'Rooms', name: 'default', label: 'Rooms', checked: true, change: onChange }, '#room');
new ej.buttons.RadioButton({ value: 'Owners', name: 'default', label: 'Owners', checked: false, change: onChange }, '#owner');

function onChange(args) {
  scheduleObj.eventSettings.resourceColorField = args.value;
}

The value of the resourceColorField field should be mapped with the name value given within the resources property.

Setting different style to each resource appointments

By default, the appearance of events is the same for all resource events. In case, if you want to apply the different styles to each resource event, you can do this by defining the cssClassField option within the resource property that maps the different cssClass fields from the resource dataSource as depicted in the following example.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
  width: '100%',
  height: '550px',
  views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
  selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
  group: {
    resources: ['Owners']
  },
  resources: [
      {
        field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
        name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00', ResourceCssClass: "NancyResource" },
            { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerGroupId: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398', ResourceCssClass: "StevenResource" },
            { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerGroupId: 1, OwnerColor: '#7499e1', ResourceCssClass: "MichaelResource" }
        ],
        textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', groupIDField: 'OwnerGroupId', colorField: 'OwnerColor', cssClassField: "ResourceCssClass"
    }],
  eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData, resourceColorField: 'Rooms' }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Dynamically add and remove resources

It is possible to add or remove the resources dynamically to and from the Scheduler respectively. In the following example, when the checkboxes are checked and unchecked, the respective resources gets added up or removed from the Scheduler layout. To add new resource dynamically, addResource method is used which accepts the arguments such as resource object, resource name (within which level, the resource object to be added) and index (position where the resource needs to be added).

To remove the resources dynamically, removeResource method is used which accepts the index (position from where the resource to be removed) and resource name (within which level, the resource object presents) as parameters.

Setting different working days and hours for resources

Each resource in the Scheduler can have different working hours as well as different working days set to it. There are default options available within the resources collection, to customize the default working hours and days of the Scheduler.

Set different work days

Different working days can be set for the resources of Scheduler using the workDaysField property which maps the working days field from the resource dataSource. This field accepts the collection of day indexes (from 0 to 6) of a week. By default, it is set to [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] and in the following example, each resource has been set with different values and therefore each of them will render only those working days. This option is applicable only on the calendar views and is not applicable on timeline views.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 2),
    views: ['Week', 'WorkWeek', 'Month'],
    currentView: 'WorkWeek',
    group: {
        resources: ['Doctors']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'DoctorId', title: 'Doctor Name', name: 'Doctors', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { text: 'Will Smith', id: 1, color: '#ea7a57', workDays: [1, 2, 4, 5], startHour: '08:00', endHour: '15:00' },
            { text: 'Alice', id: 2, color: 'rgb(53, 124, 210)', workDays: [1, 3, 5], startHour: '10:00', endHour: '18:00' },
            { text: 'Robson', id: 3, color: '#7fa900', workDays: [2,6] }
        ],
        textField: 'text', idField: 'id', colorField: 'color', workDaysField: 'workDays'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: doctorData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

Set different work hours

Different working Hours can be set for the resources of Scheduler using the startHourField and endHourField property which maps the startHourField and endHourField field from the resource dataSource.

  • startHourField - Denotes the start time of the working/business hour in a day.
  • endHourField - Denotes the end time limit of the working/business hour in a day.

Working hours indicates the work hour duration of a day, which is highlighted visually with active color over the work cells. Each resource on the Scheduler can be defined with its own set of working hours as depicted in the following example.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
    views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth'],
    group: {
        resources: ['Doctors']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'DoctorId', title: 'Doctor Name',
        name: 'Doctors', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { text: 'Will Smith', id: 1, color: '#ea7a57', startHour: '08:00', endHour: '15:00' },
            { text: 'Alice', id: 2, color: '#357cd2', startHour: '10:00', endHour: '18:00'},
            { text: 'Robson', id: 3, color: '#7fa900', startHour: '06:00', endHour: '13:00' }
        ],
        textField: 'text', idField: 'id', colorField: 'color', startHourField: 'startHour', endHourField: 'endHour'
    }],
    eventSettings: { dataSource: doctorData }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

In this example, a resource named Will Smith is depicted with working hours ranging from 8.00 AM to 3.00 PM and is visually illustrated with active colors, whereas the other two resources have different working hours set.

Hide non-working days when grouped by date

In Scheduler, you can set custom work days for each resource and group the Scheduler by date to display these work days. By default, the Scheduler will show all days when it is grouped by date, even if they are not included in the custom work days for the resources. However, you can use the hideNonWorkingDays property to only display the custom work days in the Scheduler.

To use the hideNonWorkingDays property, you need to include it in the configuration options for your Scheduler component. Set the value of hideNonWorkingDays to true to enable this feature.

Example: To display the Scheduler with resources grouped by date for custom working days,

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
    width: '100%',
    height: '550px',
    group: {
        byDate: true,
        hideNonWorkingDays: true,
        resources: ['Owners']
    },
    resources: [{
        field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
        name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
        dataSource: [
            { text: 'Alice', id: 1, color: '#1aaa55', workDays: [1, 2, 3, 4] },
            { text: 'Smith', id: 2, color: '#7fa900', workDays: [2, 3, 5] }
        ],
        textField: 'text', idField: 'id', colorField: 'color', workDaysField: 'workDays'
    }],
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');

if(ele) {
  ele.style.visibility = "visible";
}   
      </script>
<script src="index.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

The hideNonWorkingDays property only applies when the Scheduler is grouped byDate.

Scroll to specific resource

You can manually scroll to a specific resource on Scheduler by making use of the scrollToResource method as depicted in the following code example.

var scheduleObj = new ej.schedule.Schedule({
  width: '100%',
  height: '550px',
  views: ['Week', 'Month', 'TimelineWeek', 'TimelineMonth', 'Agenda'],
  selectedDate: new Date(2018, 3, 1),
  group: {
    resources: ['Owners']
  },
  resources: [
    {
      field: 'OwnerId', title: 'Owner',
      name: 'Owners', allowMultiple: true,
      dataSource: [
        { OwnerText: 'Jammy', Id: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
        { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
        { OwnerText: 'Tweety', Id: 3, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' },
        { OwnerText: 'Jammy', Id: 4, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
        { OwnerText: 'Nestle', Id: 5, OwnerGroupId: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
        { OwnerText: 'Phoenix', Id: 6, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' },
        { OwnerText: 'Hangout', Id: 7, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
        { OwnerText: 'Rainbow', Id: 8, OwnerGroupId: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
        { OwnerText: 'Photogenic', Id: 9, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }
      ],
      textField: 'OwnerText', idField: 'Id', colorField: 'OwnerColor'
    }],
  eventSettings: { dataSource: resourceData, resourceColorField: 'Rooms' }
});
scheduleObj.appendTo('#Schedule');
var resourceButton = new ej.buttons.Button();
resourceButton.appendTo('#btn1');
resourceButton.element.onclick = function () {
  scheduleObj.scrollToResource(6, 'Owners');
};

Compact view in mobile

Although the Scheduler views are designed keeping in mind the responsiveness of the control in mobile devices, however when using Scheduler with multiple resources - it is difficult to view all the resources and its relevant events at once on the mobile. Therefore, we have introduced a new compact mode specially for displaying multiple resources of Scheduler on mobile devices. By default, this mode is enabled while using Scheduler with multiple resources on mobile devices. If in case, you need to disable this compact mode, set false to the enableCompactView option within the group property. Disabling this option will display the exact desktop mode of Scheduler view on mobile devices.

With this compact view enabled on mobile, you can view only single resource at a time and to switch to other resources, there is a treeview at the left listing out all other available resources - clicking on which will display that particular resource and its related appointments.

Resources in compact mode

Clicking on the menu icon before the resource text will show the resources available in the Scheduler as following.

Resources menu option in compact mode

Adaptive UI in desktop

By default, the Scheduler layout adapts automatically in the desktop and mobile devices with appropriate UI changes. In case, if the user wants to display the Adaptive scheduler in desktop mode with adaptive enhancements, then the property enableAdaptiveUI can be set to true. Enabling this option will display the exact mobile mode of Scheduler view on desktop devices.

Some of the default changes made for compact Scheduler to render in desktop devices are as follows,

  • View options displayed in the Navigation drawer.
  • Plus icon is added to the header for new event creation.
  • Today icon is added to the header instead of the Today button.
  • With Multiple resources – only one resource has been shown to enhance the view experience of resource events details clearly. To switch to other resources, there is a TreeView on the left that lists all other available resources, clicking on which will display that particular resource and its related events.
