KDCalendarView

Basic Implementation of a Calendar with EventKit read capabilities.

Installation

Download the files or clone the project
Drop the contents of the KDCalendarView group in your project
Add the EventKit framework (From XCode, click on the project file then Build Phases > Link Binary With Libraries. Press the + and add the EventKit.framework)

Basic Use

Create a UIViewController that implementes the KDCalendarDelegate and KDCalendarDataSource and then create the calendar as below:

KDCalendarView* calendarView = [[KDCalendarView alloc] initWithFrame:calendarFrame];
calendarView.delegate = self;
calendarView.dataSource = self;

[self.view addSubview:calendarView]

The frame can be arbitrary and the component will morph to fit in the shape it is given.

To show events added from your iOS calendar add:

calendarView.showsEvents = YES;

Data Source and Delegate

The calendar will call on 2 interfaces.

KDCalendarDataSource needs to implement at least the first method that returns the start date. Feel free to set this at today as below:

-(NSDate*)startDate {
  return [NSDate date];
}

KDCalendarDelegate will respond to scrolling events and date selection events

Setting Dates

You can either set a date directly or scroll to the month you want if it is within the interval of start and end dates provided by the DataSource. The methods are: 'setMonthDisplayed:animated:' and 'setDateSelected:animated:' Example of setting the calendar to scroll to the next month:

NSDateComponents* components = [[NSDateComponents alloc] init];
components.month = value;
NSDate* cdate = self.calendarView.monthDisplayed;
NSDate* date = [calendar dateByAddingComponents:components toDate:cdate options:0];
[self.calendarView setMonthDisplayed:date animated:YES];

When selecting a start day which is not the first of the month, you can choose whether the days until that will be displayd grayed out.

self.calendarView.showsWholeMonthsOnStartAndEnd = YES;
