Can someone give me an example on how to use the setQ() method on google calendar v3 api for calendar events in Java? I try the setQ() method in google drive and it's worked fine, so I want to know how to do the same thing in google calendar events.
So for example, I have an event description in my 'primary' calendar that contains the word 'event test' and I want to retrieve all events in this 'primary' calendar that has its description contains the word 'event test'. Because I want to avoid looping all the hundreds or thousands of events in my calendar to find a specific event.
Thanks.
Events feed = client.events().list("calendarId").setQ("search text").execute();

I am using google calendar API to fetch the event lists. What I am doing over here is I am adding filter to get event of specific date, so for that I have used timeMin and timeMax keys. But this filter is not working at all. It is giving me results of other dates as well. Can someone please help me with what am I doing wrong?
Here is my request URL.
https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/EMAIL/events?key=KEY&timeMin=2021-07-15T00:00:00.000Z&timeMax=2021-07-17T00:00:00.000Z&timeZone=Asia/Calcutta
Thanks in advance!
The timeMin and timeMax parameters are confusing and do not correspond to the Date options from...to of the UI search
As per documentation:
timeMax: Upper bound (exclusive) for an event's start time to filter by.
timeMin: Lower bound (exclusive) for an event's end time to filter by.
In other words, defining
timeMin=2021-07-15T00:00:00.000Z&timeMax=2021-07-17T00:00:00.000Z
will return you all events that started before 2021-07-17T00:00:00.000Z and end after 2021-07-17T00:00:00.000Z.
You need to modify the query and look for event on the date indirectly by e.g. looking for events that started before 2021-07-17T23:59:59.999Z and ended after 2021-07-17T00:00:00.000Z.
Thereby, make sure to set singleEvents to true to exlucde event series (recurring events).
Once you have a list of candidates, you might still need to query for the start and end properties of the event resource and filter out the spare results.
I want to create a UI to enable the user to set specific configuration from date1 to date2. To pick the dates I want the calendar to pop up.
To create the calendar, I can put a combo box to choose the month, along with 30 buttons as representative of the days (enabling/disabling some days based on the selected month).
If you know a better way to do this, I would be very thankful if you share it with me!
Thanks!
Please don't do it like that. You have the full power of Java at your hands. There are many Java libraries for date pickers like this one:
https://toedter.com/jcalendar/
Download the .jar file and add it to your model dependencies. Then you can create the date picker object using the respective API.
Here is an AnyLogic example model but it currently only works in AnyLogic 7 (since 8 massively changed how things are displayed). To get it working in AL 8, you might need to ask AL support.
I am very new to java and I have been assigned a task in which I have to select single date (01-01-2011) or range of dates like (from 01-01-2011 to 22-03-2011)along with time, Time can also be optionally selected.
I was previously a web developer and there are a lot of date or time range picker available there and they are very easy to customize. But in JAVA, everything seems complex.
I have seen some examples on internet so far like LGoodDatePicker BUT I don't have any idea how to implement this.
Any tutorial or straight guideline will help me alot.
Thanks
LGoodDatePicker is great, I am also using it. I would suggest you to stick to, what is widely used to get help.
LGoodDatePicker has demo code in GitHub repo. I used those example codes to figure out how to implement it. You can compare those to the screenshots provided here.
Generally, you can create a component with something like this:
DatePickerSettings datePickerSettings = new DatePickerSettings();
datePickerSettings.setFormatForDatesBeforeCommonEra("dd.MM.yyyy");
datePickerSettings.setFormatForDatesCommonEra("dd.MM.yyyy");
TimePickerSettings timePickerSettings = new TimePickerSettings();
timePickerSettings.use24HourClockFormat();
DatePicker datePicker = new DatePicker(datePickerSettings);
panel.add(datePicker);
datePicker.setDateToToday();
A range is nothing but a start and end date. You could use 2 such components for a start date and an end date. You need to check that start date is before end date.
I am trying to add an event to Google Calendar using the API library (https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/quickstart/android) on my Android app, preferably using a method like addEventToGoogle(String title, String description, long unixStart, long unixEnd) However I'm having a really hard time figuring out how to get started with this. Just to be clear, I'm trying to add the events to Google Calendar linked to a Google account, and not just add it to the calendar locally on the device.
Can someone help me? I've finished step 4 of the 'tutorial' linked above, but I don't know what to do after that...
The sample you are linking is setting up your app to get the default calendar from the google account and makes the appropriate auth connection. You can see below that (scroll until "Fetch a list of the next 10 events...") it creates a list of events from the server.
Taken from here https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/create-events
event.insert()
And also check out the events api https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/v3/reference/events
As the title says, is it possible to get the holidays from the android calendar? For instance Christmas Eve, how can I determine that this is a holiday in my android application?
The calendar app does not know about holidays and other events. However, you can display in it multiple calendars so include a calendar that shows the events you want and you will have access to it via the calendar API.
For example, here is a calendar that you can add to your Google calendar:
https://www.google.com/calendar/b/0/embed?src=usa__en#holiday.calendar.google.com&gsessionid=OK
As #Tim has said, there is no intrinsic information stored within the Calendar application about holidays. But once you figure out the algorithm for each day you can determine annually when each holiday will fall.
This link might contain information that will help you determine the algorithm for each holiday.
