I need to be able to let users move some events around on my fullcalendar. And I want to go to server and fetch counterparties' busy times and display them as background events on the calendar when the dragging is going on. However, when I call .fullcalendar('renderEvents', [...]) while the dragging is happening, the dragging mechanism within fullcalendar breaks and stops.
Is there a way to either add events without breaking dragging or some other way highlight busy times that have to be retrieved with ajax call?
The example is here: https://jsbin.com/qikiganelu/1/edit?js,output. Try dragging 'Meeting with Bob'.
$(function() { // document ready
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: '',
center: '',
right: ''
},
defaultView: 'agenda',
duration: {days: 2},
allDaySlot: false,
defaultDate: '2017-04-27',
minTime: '9:00',
maxTime: '17:00',
events: [
{
title: 'Keynote',
start: '2017-04-27T09:00',
end: '2017-04-27T11:00',
editable: false,
color: "gray",
},
{
title: 'Meeting with Bob',
start: '2017-04-27T12:30',
end: '2017-04-27T13:00',
editable: true,
},
],
eventDragStart: function(event, jsEvent, ui, view){
// fetch Bob's busy times and add them as background events
var busyTimes = [
{
start: '2017-04-27T14:00',
end: '2017-04-27T16:00',
rendering: 'background',
},
{
start: '2017-04-28T9:00',
end: '2017-04-28T12:00',
rendering: 'background',
}
];
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('renderEvents', busyTimes);
},
});
});
body {
margin: 40px 10px;
padding: 0;
font-family: "Lucida Grande",Helvetica,Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
}
#calendar {
max-width: 900px;
margin: 0 auto;
}

Here is an example of how to specify an array of events: var calendar = new Calendar(calendarEl, { events: [ { title : 'event1', start : '2010-01-01' }, { title : 'event2', start : '2010-01-05', end : '2010-01-07' }, { title : 'event3', start : '2010-01-09T12:30:00', allDay : false // will make the time show } ] });
Detect when the user clicks on dates or times. Give the user the ability to select multiple dates or time slots with their mouse or touch device. Allows a user to highlight multiple days or timeslots by clicking and dragging.
ready(function() { $(window). resize(function() { $('#calendar'). fullCalendar('option', 'height', get_calendar_height()); }); //set fullcalendar height property $('#calendar'). fullCalendar({ //options height: get_calendar_height }); });
We can get start date by getView event with intervalStart. We can get end date by getView event with intervalEnd. var month = $('#calendar'). fullCalendar('getView').
As a workaround, try preloading all the background events, but hiding them via CSS until the drag operation happens. For instance:
// hide all background events by default
.fc-bgevent {
display: none;
}
// redisplay once "show-background-events" class toggled on
.fc-bgevent.show-background-events {
display: block;
}
Show / hide the background events by toggling the .show-background-events
class like so:
eventDragStart: function(event, jsEvent, ui, view){
$(".fc-bgevent").addClass("show-background-events");
},
eventDragStop: function(event, jsEvent, ui, view){
$(".fc-bgevent").removeClass("show-background-events");
}
