After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

This package makes working with a Google Calendar a breeze. Once it has been set up you can do these things:

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

Next up the service provider must be registered:

Optionally the Lester\GoogleCalendar\GoogleCalendarFacade must be registered:

You must publish the configuration with this command:

This will publish file called google-calendar.php in your config-directory with this contents:

How to obtain the credentials to communicate with Google Calendar

The first thing you’ll need to do is to get some credentials to use Google API’s. I’m assuming that you’ve already created a Google account and are signed in. Head over to Google API console and click "Select a project" in the header.

1

Next up we must specify which API's the project may consume. In the list of available API's click "Google Calendar API". On the next screen click "Enable".

2

Now that you've created a project that has access to the Calendar API it's time to download a file with these credentials. Click "Credentials" in the sidebar. You'll want to create a "Service account key".

3

On the next screen you can give the service account a name. You can name it anything you’d like. In the service account id you’ll see an email address. We’ll use this email address later on in this guide. Select "JSON" as the key type and click "Create" to download the JSON file.

4

Save the json inside your Laravel project at the location specified in the service_account_credentials_json key of the config file of this package. Because the json file contains potentially sensitive information I don't recommend committing it to your git repository.

Now that everything is set up on the API site, we’ll need to configure some things on the Google Calendar site. Head over Google Calendar and view the settings of the calendar you want to work with via PHP. On the “Share this Calendar” tab add the service account id that was displayed when creating credentials on the API site.

5

Open up the “Calendar Details” tab to see the id of the calendar. You need to specify that id in the config file.

Usage

Getting events

You can fetch all events by simply calling Event::get(); this will return all events of the coming year. An event comes in the form of a Lester\GoogleCalendar\Event object.

The full signature of the function is:

The parameters you can pass in $queryParameters are listed on the documentation on list at the Google Calendar API docs.

Accessing start and end dates of an event

You can use these getters to retrieve start and end date as Carbon instances:

Creating an event

You can just new up a Lester\GoogleCalendar\Event-object

You can also call create statically:

This will create an event with a specific start and end time. If you want to create a full day event you must use startDate and endDate instead of startDateTime and endDateTime.

Getting a single event

Google assigns a unique id to every single event. You can get this id by getting events using the get method and getting the id property on a Lester\GoogleCalendar\Event-object:

You can use this id to fetch a single event from Google:

Updating an event

Easy, just change some properties and call save():

Alternatively you can use the update method:

Deleting an event

Nothing to it!

Limitations

The Google Calendar API provides many options. This package doesn't support all of them. For instance recurring events cannot be managed properly with this package. If you stick to creating events with a name and a date you should be fine.

Upgrading from v1 to v2

The only major difference between v1 and v2 is that under the hood Google API v2 is used instead of v1. Here are the steps required to upgrade:
