I'm trying to insert events to the calendar
from a fragment, but I keep getting an error that no activity is found to handle Intent.
Here's the error -
android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.INSERT cat=[android.intent.category.APP_CALENDAR] typ=vnd.android.cursor.item/event (has extras) }
Here's my code:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_APP_CALENDAR);
intent.setType("vnd.android.cursor.item/event");
intent.putExtra(Events.TITLE, "Phototherapy Treatment");
intent.putExtra(Events.EVENT_LOCATION, "");
intent.putExtra(Events.DESCRIPTION, "Phototherapy Treatment");
// Setting dates
Calendar calDate = Calendar.getInstance();
intent.putExtra(CalendarContract.EXTRA_EVENT_BEGIN_TIME,calDate.getTimeInMillis());
intent.putExtra(CalendarContract.EXTRA_EVENT_END_TIME,
calDate.getTimeInMillis()+60*60*1000);
// Make it a full day event
intent.putExtra(CalendarContract.EXTRA_EVENT_ALL_DAY, false);
// Make it a recurring Event
intent.putExtra(Events.RRULE, "FREQ=WEEKLY;COUNT="+Integer.valueOf(No.getText().toString())+";"
+"WKST=SU;BYDAY="+days);
// Making it private and shown as busy
intent.putExtra(Events.ACCESS_LEVEL, Events.ACCESS_PRIVATE);
intent.putExtra(Events.AVAILABILITY, Events.AVAILABILITY_BUSY);
startActivity(intent);
Intent Filter
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<action android:name="android.intent.action.INSERT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.APP_CALENDAR" />
<data android:mimeType="vnd.android.cursor.item/event" />
</intent-filter>
I used Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_EDIT); and it seemed to resolve the issue
Calender App may not be installed in some devices. So enclose within try catch block to check.
Calendar startTymVar = Calendar.getInstance();
startTymVar.set(2015, 12, 31, 11, 30);
Intent calendarIntentVar = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT)
.setData(CalendarContract.Events.CONTENT_URI)
.putExtra(CalendarContract.EXTRA_EVENT_BEGIN_TIME, startTymVar.getTimeInMillis())
.putExtra(CalendarContract.Events.TITLE, "New Year")
.putExtra(CalendarContract.Events.DESCRIPTION, "Hav ful fun");
try
{
startActivity(calendarIntentVar);
}
catch (ActivityNotFoundException ErrVar)
{
Toast.makeText(this, "Install Calender App", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
