This section explains how to use Schedule component in Vue 3 application.

Prerequisites

System requirements for Syncfusion Vue UI components

Creating Vue application using Vue CLI

The easiest way to create a Vue application is to use the Vue CLI. Vue CLI versions above 4.5.0 are mandatory for creating applications using Vue 3. Use the following command to uninstall older versions of the Vue CLI.

Copied to clipboard
npm uninstall vue-cli -g

Use the following commands to install the latest version of Vue CLI.

Copied to clipboard
npm install -g @vue/cli
npm install -g @vue/cli-init

Create a new project using the command below.

Copied to clipboard
vue create quickstart
cd quickstart

Initiating a new project prompts us to choose the type of project to be used for the current application. Select the option Default (Vue 3) from the menu.

Reference

Adding Syncfusion Schedule package in the application

All the available Essential JS 2 packages are published in npmjs.com registry.

Install the Scheduler component by using the below npm command.

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

Adding CSS reference for Syncfusion Vue Scheduler component

Import the needed css styles for the Scheduler component along with dependency styles in the <style> section of the src/App.vue file as follows.

Copied to clipboard
<style>
@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-navigations/styles/material.css';
@import '../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-popups/styles/material.css';
@import '../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-vue-schedule/styles/material.css';
</style>

Note: Scheduler component use other Syncfusion components too, the dependent component’s CSS references need to be added for using all the Scheduler functionalities.

Adding Syncfusion Vue Scheduler component in the application

You have completed all the necessary configurations needed for rendering the Syncfusion Vue component. Now, you are going to add the Scheduler component using following steps.

  1. Import the Scheduler component in the <script> section of the src/App.vue file.
Copied to clipboard
<script>
   import { ScheduleComponent, Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month, Agenda, DragAndDrop, Resize, ViewsDirective, ViewDirective, ResourcesDirective, ResourceDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-schedule";
 </script>
  1. Register the Scheduler component along with the required child directives which are used in this example. Find the list of child directives and the tag names that can be used in the Scheduler component in the following table.
Directive Name Tag Name
ViewsDirective e-views
ViewDirective e-view
ResourcesDirective e-resources
ResourceDirective e-resource
HeaderRowsDirective e-header-rows
HeaderRowDirective e-header-row
Copied to clipboard
    import { ScheduleComponent, Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month, Agenda, DragAndDrop, Resize, ViewsDirective, ViewDirective, ResourcesDirective, ResourceDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-schedule";
    //Component registeration
    export default {
        name: "App",
        components: {
        'ejs-schedule' : ScheduleComponent,
        'e-views' : ViewsDirective,
        'e-view' : ViewDirective,
        'e-resources' : ResourcesDirective,
        'e-resource' : ResourceDirective
        }
    }

In the above code snippet, you have registered Scheduler and its child directives. View directives are used to define the view requirements and Resource directives are used to define the resource definitions for Scheduler. Header row directives are used to customize header rows in Timeline views of scheduler.

  1. Add the component definition in template section.

<template>
<div id='app'>
    <ejs-schedule height='550px' width='100%' :selectedDate='selectedDate' :eventSettings='eventSettings'>
        <e-views>
            <e-view option='Day'></e-view>
            <e-view option='Week' startHour='07:00' endHour='15:00'></e-view>
            <e-view option='WorkWeek' startHour='10:00' endHour='18:00'></e-view>
            <e-view option='Month' showWeekend=false></e-view>
            <e-view option='Agenda'></e-view>
        </e-views>
        <e-resources>
            <e-resource field="OwnerId" title="Owner" name="Owners" :dataSource="ownerDataSource"
                textField="OwnerText" idField="Id" colorField="OwnerColor">
            </e-resource>
        </e-resources>
    </ejs-schedule>
</div>
</template>
  1. Declare the bound properties in the script section. Declare the collection data which is bound for the dataSource property.
Copied to clipboard
data() {
  return {
data:  [
  {
        Id: 1,
        Subject: 'Surgery - Andrew',
        EventType: 'Confirmed',
        StartTime: new Date(2021, 7, 10, 9, 0),
        EndTime: new Date(2021, 7, 10, 10, 0),
        OwnerId: 2
    }, {
        Id: 2,
        Subject: 'Consulting - John',
        EventType: 'Confirmed',
        StartTime: new Date(2021, 7, 11, 10, 0),
        EndTime: new Date(2021, 7, 11, 11, 30),
        OwnerId: 3
    }, {
        Id: 3,
        Subject: 'Therapy - Robert',
        EventType: 'Requested',
        StartTime: new Date(2021, 7, 12, 11, 30),
        EndTime: new Date(2021, 7, 12, 12, 30),
        OwnerId: 1
    },
    ]
};
}
  1. Summarizing the above steps, update the src/App.vue file with following code.
Copied to clipboard
<template>
<div id='app'>
    <ejs-schedule height='550px' width='100%' :selectedDate='selectedDate' :eventSettings='eventSettings'>
        <e-views>
            <e-view option='Day'></e-view>
            <e-view option='Week' startHour='07:00' endHour='15:00'></e-view>
            <e-view option='WorkWeek' startHour='10:00' endHour='18:00'></e-view>
            <e-view option='Month' showWeekend=false></e-view>
            <e-view option='Agenda'></e-view>
        </e-views>
        <e-resources>
            <e-resource field="OwnerId" title="Owner" name="Owners" :dataSource="ownerDataSource"
                textField="OwnerText" idField="Id" colorField="OwnerColor">
            </e-resource>
        </e-resources>
    </ejs-schedule>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import { ScheduleComponent, Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month, Agenda, DragAndDrop, Resize, ViewsDirective, ViewDirective, ResourcesDirective, ResourceDirective } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-schedule";

export default {
name: "App",
// Declaring component and its directives
components: {
    'ejs-schedule': ScheduleComponent,
    'e-views': ViewsDirective,
    'e-view': ViewDirective,
    'e-resources': ResourcesDirective,
    'e-resource': ResourceDirective
},
// Bound properties declaration
data() {
    return {
        selectedDate: new Date(2021, 7, 12),
        allowMultiple: true,
        ownerDataSource: [
            { OwnerText: 'Nancy', Id: 1, OwnerColor: '#ffaa00' },
            { OwnerText: 'Steven', Id: 2, OwnerColor: '#f8a398' },
            { OwnerText: 'Michael', Id: 3, OwnerColor: '#7499e1' }],
        eventSettings: {
            dataSource: [
                {
                    Id: 1,
                    Subject: 'Surgery - Andrew',
                    EventType: 'Confirmed',
                    StartTime: new Date(2021, 7, 10, 9, 0),
                    EndTime: new Date(2021, 7, 10, 10, 0),
                    OwnerId: 2
                },
                {
                    Id: 2,
                    Subject: 'Consulting - John',
                    EventType: 'Confirmed',
                    StartTime: new Date(2021, 7, 11, 10, 0),
                    EndTime: new Date(2021, 7, 11, 11, 30),
                    OwnerId: 3
                },
                {
                    Id: 3,
                    Subject: 'Therapy - Robert',
                    EventType: 'Requested',
                    StartTime: new Date(2021, 7, 12, 11, 30),
                    EndTime: new Date(2021, 7, 12, 12, 30),
                    OwnerId: 1
                }
            ]
        },
    };
},
  provide: {
  schedule: [Day, Week, WorkWeek, Month, Agenda, DragAndDrop, Resize]
}
};
</script>

<style>
@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-navigations/styles/material.css';
@import '../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-popups/styles/material.css';
@import '../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-vue-schedule/styles/material.css';
</style>
