Create an event
If you want to create an event on Google Calendar, all you have to do is to use the function insertEvent()
, passing two arguments: the array of the data of the event, and the Google id (Google mail) of the user for which create the event:
where the event has to be an array of the form
The function returns the id
of the event returned by Google.
Get the User's calendar list
To get a user's calendar list, simply use the function getCalendarList()
, that accepts a unique parameter: the Google Account ID of the user of which we want to retrieve the calendar list:
the function returns an array which contains the calendar list for the $googleAccountID
.
Extra
Map Event fields
If you don't want to map everytime the fields of the event (maybe because your events' table fields are not named as the Google Calendar events' fields are), you can pass the mapping parameters in AppController.php
:
Change Time Zone
Note that events' start and date accepts only a datetime
format, and post to Google Calendar a datetime in the format RFC3339, with a timezone set by default.
The default timezone is Europe/Rome
, but you can change it from the AppController.php
:
You can find here the list of supported timezones by PHP.
