ExtendedCalendarView

====================

![ScreenShot](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tyczj/ExtendedCalendarView/master/ExtendedCalendarView/Screenshot_2014-04-04-18-11-16.png)

Currently there is no easy way of showing a calendar with the ability to display events on days, ExtendedCalendarView is meant to solve that problem.

Usage

=====

simply declare it in your layout

    

    

    

    

    

    

get the view like you normally would

    ExtendedCalendarView calendar = (ExtendedCalendarView)findViewById(R.id.calendar);

Calendar Content Provider

=========================

All events are stored in a content provider for easy access and the ability to have other app hook into your calendar if you choose. make sure you declare the content provider in your manifest

    

                

if you dont want other apps to have access to your database make you add this attribute to the provider 

    

    android:permission="signature"    

    

Current database columns

    id - database id of the event

    event (Text) - name of the event

    location (Text) - where the event is

    description (Text) - information about the event

    start (Integer) - when the event starts

    end (Integer) - when the event ends

    start_day (Integer) - julian start day

    end_day (Integer) - julian end day

    color (Integer) - the color of the event

Adding Events

=============

To add an event to the content provider you need the start time, end time, julian start day and julian end day. For now you will have to implement your own way to get all the information but eventually in the future I may create one that you can just call and use.

    ContentValues values = new ContentValues();

		values.put(CalendarProvider.COLOR, Event.COLOR_RED);

		values.put(CalendarProvider.DESCRIPTION, "Some Description");

		values.put(CalendarProvider.LOCATION, "Some location);

		values.put(CalendarProvider.EVENT, "Event name);

			

		Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();

			

		cal.set(startDayYear, startDayMonth, startDayDay, startTimeHour, startTimeMin);

		values.put(CalendarProvider.START, cal.getTimeInMillis());

		values.put(CalendarProvider.START_DAY, julianDay);

		TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getDefault();

			

		cal.set(endDayYear, endDayMonth, endDayDay, endTimeHour, endTimeMin);

		int endDayJulian = Time.getJulianDay(cal.getTimeInMillis(), TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toSeconds(tz.getOffset(cal.getTimeInMillis())));

			

		values.put(CalendarProvider.END, cal.getTimeInMillis());

		values.put(CalendarProvider.END_DAY, endDayJulian);

		Uri uri = getContentResolver().insert(CalendarProvider.CONTENT_URI, values);

		

julian start day is generated for you when the month is built so all you would have to do it call day.getStartDay() on the day and it will give you the julian day
