A modern PHP library for generating iCalendar v2.0 events.
Install with composer using composer require itsnubix/nowcal
use NowCal\NowCal;
$event = NowCal::create(['start' => 'October 5, 2019 6:03PM']))
->summary('Daft Punk is playing')
->location('My House');The following properties can be get/set on the NowCal instance. Users can take advantage of the set property helpers in the class, i.e.: $nowcal->location('Event Location'); as they provide a nice syntax to string multiple calls together and support callbacks if necessary.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| uid | A globally unique ID. NOTE: passing the same ICS file into a calendar app with the same UI allows you to update the existing invite |
| start | A string parseable by DateTime |
| timezone | A string parseable by DateTimeZone |
| end | A string parseable by DateTime, as per RFC 5545, only an end value or duration value may be used |
| duration | A string parseable by DateInterval, as per RFC 5545, only an end value or duration value may be used |
| summary | A short description of the event |
| location | The location where the event is taking place |
| sequence | An integer that represents the version number |
| method | send if required, publish/cancel/etc |
| reminder | A simple display reminder. A string parseable by DateInterval. |
