duration
Sets the exact duration of a custom view.
Example for a Custom View:
var calendar = new Calendar(calendarEl, {
initialView: 'timeGridFourDay',
views: {
timeGridFourDay: {
type: 'timeGrid',
duration: { days: 4 }
}
}
});
Simpler example for a calendar with one view:
var calendar = new Calendar(calendarEl, {
initialView: 'timeGrid',
duration: { days: 4 }
});
Special Case
If the duration is specified like {weeks:1}
, then the dateAlignment will automatically default to start-of-week. However, if it is specified as {days:7}
, then no such alignment will happen.
Dynamically Setting
When setting the duration
dynamically, it is important to note that it will only affect a generic view i.e. a view without a defined initial duration. Always bear in mind that a view’s duration
takes precedence. For example:
var calendar = new Calendar(calendarEl, {
initialView: 'timeGridFourDay',
duration: { days: 4 }, // the dynamic setter will change this
views: {
timeGrid: {
type: 'timeGrid'
}
}
});
calendar.setOption('duration', { weeks: 1 });
and:
var calendar = new Calendar(calendarEl, {
initialView: 'timeGridFourDay',
views: {
timeGridFourDay: {
type: 'timeGrid',
duration: { days: 4 } // the dynamic setter won't change this
}
}
});
calendar.setOption('duration', { weeks: 1 });
