Hi Friend,

In this example, I will learn you how to use fullcalendar with livewire example. We will explain step-by-step laravel livewire fullcalendar integration. you can easily make livewire fullcalendar integration in laravel. we will describe laravel livewire fullcalendar integration.

Here, I will give you full example for simply livewire fullcalendar integration in laravel native as bellow.

Step 1 : Install Laravel App

In First step, We need to get fresh laravel version application using bellow command. So Let’s open terminal and run bellow command.

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog

Step 2 : Setup Database Configuration

After successfully install laravel app thenafter configure databse setup. We will open “.env” file and change the database name, username and password in the env file.

DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=Enter_Your_Database_Name
DB_USERNAME=Enter_Your_Database_Username
DB_PASSWORD=Enter_Your_Database_Password

Step 3 : Install Livewire

In this step, You will simply install livewire to our laravel application using bellow command:

composer require livewire/livewire

Step 4 : Create items Table and Model

In this step we have to create migration for items table using Laravel php artisan command, so first fire bellow command:

php artisan make:model Event -m

After this command you have to put bellow code in your migration file for create items table.

following path: /database/migrations/2021_04_10_102325_create_events_table.php

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

class CreateEventsTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('events', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('title');
            $table->string('start');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('events');
    }
}

Now we require to run migration be bellow command:

php artisan migrate

After you have to put bellow code in your model file for create items table.

following path:/app/Models/Event.php

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Event extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;

    /**
     * The attributes that are mass assignable.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $fillable = [
        'title',
        'start',
    ];
}

Step:5 Create Route

In thi step,now, we need to add resource route for livewire fullcalendar integration in application. so open your “routes/web.php” file and add following route.

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use App\Http\Livewire\Calendar;
use App\Models\Event;
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/

Route::view('/', 'home');

Livewire::component('calendar', Calendar::class);

Step 6 : Create Component

Now, You can create livewire component using bellow command, So Let’s run bellow command to create calendar form component:

php artisan make:livewire calendar

Now they created fies on both path:

app/Http/Livewire/Calendar.php
resources/views/livewire/calendar.blade.php

Now first file we will update as bellow for Calendar.php file.

app/Http/Livewire/Calendar.php

<?php
namespace App\Http\Livewire;
use Livewire\Component;
use App\Models\Event;

class Calendar extends Component
{
    public $events = '';

    public function getevent()
    {       
        $events = Event::select('id','title','start')->get();

        return  json_encode($events);
    }

    /**
    * Write code on Method
    *
    * @return response()
    */ 
    public function addevent($event)
    {
        $input['title'] = $event['title'];
        $input['start'] = $event['start'];
        Event::create($input);
    }

    /**
    * Write code on Method
    *
    * @return response()
    */
    public function eventDrop($event, $oldEvent)
    {
      $eventdata = Event::find($event['id']);
      $eventdata->start = $event['start'];
      $eventdata->save();
    }

    /**
    * Write code on Method
    *
    * @return response()
    */
    public function render()
    {       
        $events = Event::select('id','title','start')->get();

        $this->events = json_encode($events);

        return view('livewire.calendar');
    }
}

Step 7: Create View

Here, we will create blade file for call fullcalendar route. in this file we will use @livewireStyles, @livewireScripts so let’s add it

resources/views/home.blade.php

<html>
<head>
    @livewireStyles
</head>
<body>
    <livewire:calendar />
    @livewireScripts
    @stack('scripts')
</body>
</html>

after,I will create calendar componet blade file.

resources/views/livewire/calendar.blade.php

<style>
    #calendar-container{
        width: 100%;
    }
    #calendar{
        padding: 10px;
        margin: 10px;
        width: 1340px;
        height: 610px;
        border:2px solid black;
    }
</style>

<div>
  <div id='calendar-container' wire:ignore>
    <div id='calendar'></div>
  </div>
</div>

@push('scripts')
    <script src='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/fullcalendar@5.3.1/main.min.js'></script>
    
    <script>
        document.addEventListener('livewire:load', function() {
            var Calendar = FullCalendar.Calendar;
            var Draggable = FullCalendar.Draggable;
            var calendarEl = document.getElementById('calendar');
            var checkbox = document.getElementById('drop-remove');
            var data =   @this.events;
            var calendar = new Calendar(calendarEl, {
            events: JSON.parse(data),
            dateClick(info)  {
               var title = prompt('Enter Event Title');
               var date = new Date(info.dateStr + 'T00:00:00');
               if(title != null && title != ''){
                 calendar.addEvent({
                    title: title,
                    start: date,
                    allDay: true
                  });
                 var eventAdd = {title: title,start: date};
                 @this.addevent(eventAdd);
                 alert('Great. Now, update your database...');
               }else{
                alert('Event Title Is Required');
               }
            },
            editable: true,
            selectable: true,
            displayEventTime: false,
            droppable: true, // this allows things to be dropped onto the calendar
            drop: function(info) {
                // is the "remove after drop" checkbox checked?
                if (checkbox.checked) {
                // if so, remove the element from the "Draggable Events" list
                info.draggedEl.parentNode.removeChild(info.draggedEl);
                }
            },
            eventDrop: info => @this.eventDrop(info.event, info.oldEvent),
            loading: function(isLoading) {
                    if (!isLoading) {
                        // Reset custom events
                        this.getEvents().forEach(function(e){
                            if (e.source === null) {
                                e.remove();
                            }
                        });
                    }
                }
            });
            calendar.render();
            @this.on(`refreshCalendar`, () => {
                calendar.refetchEvents()
            });
        });
    </script>
