Getting started with React Schedule component

This section briefly explains how to create scheduler component and configure its available functionalities in React environment, using Essential JS 2 quickstart seed repository.

To get start quickly with React Scheduler using the Create React App, you can check on this video:

Dependencies

The following list of dependencies are required to use the Scheduler component in your application.

|-- @syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-base
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-data
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-schedule
        |-- @syncfusion/ej2-compression
        |-- @syncfusion/ej2-excel-export
        |-- @syncfusion/ej2-file-utils
        |-- @syncfusion/ej2-navigations
        |-- @syncfusion/ej2-calendars
          |-- @syncfusion/ej2-inputs
            |-- @syncfusion/ej2-split-buttons
          |-- @syncfusion/ej2-lists
          |-- @syncfusion/ej2-popups
            |-- @syncfusion/ej2-buttons
        |-- @syncfusion/ej2-dropdowns

Installation and configuration

Setup for local development

You can use create-react-app to setup the applications. To install create-react-app run the following command.

npm install -g create-react-app

To setup basic React sample use following commands.

create-react-app quickstart --scripts-version=react-scripts-ts
cd quickstart

create-react-app quickstart
cd quickstart

Adding Syncfusion packages

All the available Essential JS 2 packages are published in npmjs.com public registry. To install Scheduler component, use the following command.

npm install @syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule --save

Adding CSS reference

Add scheduler component’s styles as given below in src/App.css.

@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-buttons/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-calendars/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-dropdowns/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-inputs/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-lists/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-navigations/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-popups/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-splitbuttons/styles/material.css";
@import "../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule/styles/material.css";

To refer App.css in the application then import it in the src/App.tsx file.

In case, if you want to make use of the combined CSS files of entire components, then you can avail it from the root folder of Essential JS 2 package and reference it with the code shown below.

@import '../../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2/material.css';

Module injection

Each view types available in scheduler are maintained as individual modules and to work with those views, it is necessary to inject the required modules. The following modules are available in scheduler namely,

Day - Inject this module to work with the day view.
Week - Inject this module to work with the week view.
WorkWeek - Inject this module to work with the work week view.
Month - Inject this module to work with the month view.
Agenda - Inject this module to work with the agenda view.
MonthAgenda - Inject this module for displaying month agenda view.
TimelineViews - Inject this module to work with the timeline day, timeline week, timeline work week view.
TimelineMonth - Inject this module to work with the timeline month view.

These modules should be injected into the schedule using the Inject method within the app.tsx file as shown below. On doing so, only the injected views will be loaded and displayed on the schedule.

[src/app/app.tsx]

<Inject services={[Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month, Agenda, MonthAgenda, TimelineViews, TimelineMonth ]} />

Initialize the schedule

Add the HTML div tag defined with an id attribute in your index.html file, where the scheduler element is initialized.

[src/index.html]

            position: absolute;
            top: 45%;
            width: 30%;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <!--Element where the scheduler will be rendered-->
    <div id="schedule"></div>
</body>
</html>

Import the Scheduler component to your app.tsx file as shown below, and initialize it to the element defined with an id schedule in the index.html file.

        <div id='schedule'>

        </div>
</body>

</html>

Now, run the application in the browser using the following command.

npm start

Above demo will display the empty scheduler.

Populating appointments

To populate the empty Scheduler with appointments, bind the event data to it by assigning the dataSource property either with valid JSON data or else with remote URL, from where the data will be fetched.

Here, the local JSON data is assigned to Scheduler’s dataSource.

[src/app/app.ts]

import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import {
  ScheduleComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule';

class App extends React.Component<{}, {}>{
   private data: object [] = [{
    {
    Id: 1,
    Subject: 'Meeting - 1',
    StartTime: new Date(2018, 1, 15, 10, 0),
    EndTime: new Date(2018, 1, 16, 12, 30),
    IsAllDay: false
    },
}],
render() {
  return <ScheduleComponent height='550px' selectedDate= {new Date(2018, 1, 15)} eventSettings={ { dataSource: this.data } } >
  </ScheduleComponent>
}
};
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('schedule'));

You can also provide different names to these default fields, for which the custom names of those fields must be mapped appropriately within fields property as shown below.

Setting date

Scheduler usually displays the system date as its current date. To change the current date of Scheduler with specific date, define the selectedDate property.

      <Inject services={[Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month, Agenda]}/>
    </ScheduleComponent>;
    }
}
;
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('schedule'));

Setting view

Scheduler displays week view by default. To change the current view, define the applicable view name to the currentView property. The applicable view names are,

Day
Week
WorkWeek
Month
Year
Agenda
MonthAgenda
TimelineDay
TimelineWeek
TimelineWorkWeek
TimelineMonth
TimelineYear

import * as React from 'react';
import * as ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import {
  ScheduleComponent, Day, Week, WorkWeek, Agenda, Month, Inject,
  ViewsDirective, ViewDirective
} from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-schedule';

class App extends React.Component<{}, {}> {
  render() {
    return <ScheduleComponent width='100%' height='550px' currentView='Month'
    selectedDate={new Date(2017, 11, 15)}>
      <ViewsDirective>
        <ViewDirective option='Day' />
        <ViewDirective option='Week' />
        <ViewDirective option='WorkWeek' />
        <ViewDirective option='Month' />
        <ViewDirective option='Agenda' />
      </ViewsDirective>
    <Inject services={[Day, Week, WorkWeek, Agenda, Month]} />
    </ScheduleComponent>
  }
};
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('schedule'));

Individual view customization

Each individual Scheduler views can be customized with its own options such as setting different start and end hour on Week and Work Week views, whereas hiding the weekend days on Month view alone. This can be achieved by defining views property to accept the array of object type, where each object depicts the individual view customization.

The output will display the Scheduler with the specified view configuration.
