Features

  • Basic Angular 2 Scheduler configuration.

  • Using AOT-compatible Angular 2 controls from DayPilot Pro package

  • Includes a trial version of DayPilot Pro for JavaScript (see License below)

  • Uses Angular CLI 1.0.0-rc.2 (with AOT enabled by default for production builds)

The downloadable project uses a minimal Scheduler configuration that uses the new syntax and is compatible with AOT.

Migrating to AOT-Compatible Angular 2 Components

Since build 8.3.2769, DayPilot Pro supports AOT compilation. The compatibility update includes a new set of Angular 2 components which will replace the existing components from the DayPilot.Angular.* namespace.

The sample project includes a Scheduler view (scheduler.component.ts) which is implemented in a standalone module (scheduler.module.ts).

The migration from the previous version involves the following steps:

  1. Replace import of individual components (DayPilot.Angular.* namespace) in "declarations" section of @NgModule with import of DayPilotModule.

  2. Replace references to DayPilot.Angular.* comonent classes with new classes (DayPilot*Component).

1. Import DayPilotModule

scheduler.module.ts (before)

import {DataService} from "./data.service";
import {HttpModule} from "@angular/http";
import {FormsModule} from "@angular/forms";
import {BrowserModule} from "@angular/platform-browser";
import {NgModule} from "@angular/core";
import {SchedulerComponent} from "./scheduler.component";
import {DayPilot} from "daypilot-pro-angular";

@NgModule({
  imports:      [ 
    BrowserModule, 
    FormsModule, 
    HttpModule 
  ],
  declarations: [
    DayPilot.Angular.Scheduler,
    SchedulerComponent
  ],
  exports:      [ SchedulerComponent ],
  providers:    [ DataService ]
})
export class SchedulerModule { }

Note that the Angular 2 Scheduler component from DayPilot Pro package is in the "declarations" section (DayPilot.Angular.Scheduler):

  declarations: [
    DayPilot.Angular.Scheduler,
    // ...
  ],

scheduler.module.ts (after)

import {DataService} from "./data.service";
import {HttpModule} from "@angular/http";
import {FormsModule} from "@angular/forms";
import {BrowserModule} from "@angular/platform-browser";
import {NgModule} from "@angular/core";
import {SchedulerComponent} from "./scheduler.component";
import {DayPilotModule} from "daypilot-pro-angular";

@NgModule({
  imports:      [ 
    BrowserModule, 
    FormsModule, 
    HttpModule, 
    DayPilotModule 
  ],
  declarations: [
    SchedulerComponent
  ],
  exports:      [ SchedulerComponent ],
  providers:    [ DataService ]
})
export class SchedulerModule { }

Note that individual declarations (such as DayPilot.Angular.Scheduler) are replaced by importing DayPilotModule ("imports" section):

  imports:      [ 
    // ...
    DayPilotModule 
  ],

This automatically makes all DayPilot components available in component templates.

2. Replace DayPilot.Angular.* Component References

scheduler.component.ts (before)

import {Component, ViewChild, AfterViewInit} from "@angular/core";
import {DayPilot, DayPilotSchedulerComponent} from "daypilot-pro-angular";
import {DataService} from "./data.service";

@Component({
  selector: 'scheduler-component',
  template: `<daypilot-scheduler [config]="config" [events]="events" #scheduler></daypilot-scheduler>`,
  styles: [``]
})
export class SchedulerComponent implements AfterViewInit {

  @ViewChild("scheduler")
  scheduler: DayPilot.Angular.Scheduler;

  events: any[] = [];

  config: any = {
    timeHeaders : [
      {groupBy: "Month", format: "MMMM yyyy"},
      {groupBy: "Day", format: "d"}
    ],
    eventHeight: 40,
    scale: "Day",
    days: 31,
    startDate: "2017-01-01",
  };

  constructor(private ds: DataService) {}

  ngAfterViewInit(): void {
    this.ds.getResources().subscribe(result => this.config.resources = result);

    var from = this.scheduler.control.visibleStart();
    var to = this.scheduler.control.visibleEnd();
    this.ds.getEvents(from, to).subscribe(result => {
      this.events = result;
    });
  }

}

Note that the "scheduler" field uses "DayPilot.Angular.Scheduler" as a type:

  @ViewChild("scheduler")
  scheduler: DayPilot.Angular.Scheduler;

scheduler.component.ts (after)

import {Component, ViewChild, AfterViewInit} from "@angular/core";
import {DayPilotSchedulerComponent} from "daypilot-pro-angular";
import {DataService} from "./data.service";

@Component({
  selector: 'scheduler-component',
  template: `<daypilot-scheduler [config]="config" [events]="events" #scheduler></daypilot-scheduler>`,
  styles: [``]
})
export class SchedulerComponent implements AfterViewInit {

  @ViewChild("scheduler")
  scheduler: DayPilotSchedulerComponent;

  events: any[] = [];

  config: any = {
    timeHeaders : [
      {groupBy: "Month", format: "MMMM yyyy"},
      {groupBy: "Day", format: "d"}
    ],
    eventHeight: 40,
    scale: "Day",
    days: 31,
    startDate: "2017-01-01",
  };

  constructor(private ds: DataService) {}

  ngAfterViewInit(): void {
    this.ds.getResources().subscribe(result => this.config.resources = result);

    var from = this.scheduler.control.visibleStart();
    var to = this.scheduler.control.visibleEnd();
    this.ds.getEvents(from, to).subscribe(result => {
      this.events = result;
    });
  }

}

The type of the "scheduler" field was changed to DayPilotSchedulerComponent:

  @ViewChild("scheduler")
  scheduler: DayPilotSchedulerComponent;

New Angular 2 Component Names

  • DayPilotSchedulerComponent (previously DayPilot.Angular.Scheduler) 

  • DayPilotCalendarComponent (previously DayPilot.Angular.Calendar) 

  • DayPilotMonthComponent (previously DayPilot.Angular.Month) 

  • DayPilotNavigatorComponent (previously DayPilot.Angular.Navigator) 

  • DayPilotGanttComponent (previously DayPilot.Angular.Gantt) 

  • DayPilotKanbanComponent (previously DayPilot.Angular.Kanban) 

  • DayPilotModalComponent (previously DayPilot.Angular.Modal)

Old Angular 2 Component Names

The old component names (DayPilot.Angular.*) are still working but they will be deprecated and eventually removed.

New Angular 2 Module Name

  • DayPilotModule

In previous versions, the components were not part of any module.
