Holidays in React Gantt component

2 Feb 20235 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 holidays, inject the DayMarkers module into the Gantt component.

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

import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { GanttComponent, Inject, DayMarkers, HolidaysDirective, HolidayDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-gantt';
import { data } from './datasource';
function App (){
   const  taskFields = {
    id: 'TaskID',
    name: 'TaskName',
    startDate: 'StartDate',
    duration: 'Duration',
    progress: 'Progress',
    child: 'subtasks'
  };
        return <GanttComponent dataSource={data} taskFields={taskFields}
        height = '450px'>
            <HolidaysDirective>
                <HolidayDirective from='04/10/2019' label='Local Holiday' cssClass='e-custom-holiday'></HolidayDirective>
            </HolidaysDirective>
            <Inject services={[DayMarkers]} />
        </GanttComponent>
};
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('root'))
import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { GanttComponent, Inject, DayMarkers, HolidaysDirective, HolidayDirective } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-gantt';
import { data } from './datasource';
function App (){
   const  taskFields: any = {
    id: 'TaskID',
    name: 'TaskName',
    startDate: 'StartDate',
    duration: 'Duration',
    progress: 'Progress',
    child: 'subtasks'
  };
        return <GanttComponent dataSource={data} taskFields={taskFields}
        height = '450px'>
            <HolidaysDirective>
                <HolidayDirective from='04/10/2019' label='Local Holiday' cssClass='e-custom-holiday'></HolidayDirective>
            </HolidaysDirective>
            <Inject services={[DayMarkers]} />
        </GanttComponent>
};
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('root'))
