Implementing Event Listeners

Event Listener

ZK supports to add an event listener on zul or in Java, please refer to ZK Developer's Reference/Event Handling/Event Listening.

Supported Events

Since 3.0.0

The ZK Calendar will fire events below:

Notice: Event names change since version 3.0.0

CalendarsEvent.ON_ITEM_CREATE

This event is triggered when a user clicks an empty cell in the time cell.

Event name in 2.1: ON_EVENT_CREATE (onEventCreate)

CalendarsEvent.ON_ITEM_EDIT

This event is triggered when a user clicks on an existing calendar item.

Event name in 2.1: ON_EVENT_EDIT(onEventEdit)

CalendarsEvent.ON_ITEM_UPDATE

This event is triggered when a user drags to change a calendar item's time span or drags to move the item to a different date.

Event name in 2.1: ON_EVENT_UPDATE(onEventUpdate)

CalendarsEvent.ON_ITEM_TOOLTIP

It's fired when you hover a mouse on a calendar item. Listen to this event to show a tooltip for an item.

    @Listen(CalendarsEvent.ON_ITEM_TOOLTIP +"= calendars")
    public void showTooltip(CalendarsEvent event) {
        tooltipText.setValue(event.getCalendarItem().getTitle() + "-" + event.getCalendarItem().getContent());
    }

CalendarsEvent.ON_DAY_CLICK

TBD...

CalendarsEvent.ON_WEEK_CLICK

Calendars fires this event when you click the week number of the year on the left-hand side when you set weekOfYear="true".

CalendarsEvent

ZK will call your event listener method with an CalendarsEvent as a parameter when one of the supported events is triggered. So you should declare your method signature like:

    @Listen(CalendarsEvent.ON_ITEM_CREATE + " = #calendars")
    public void showCreationBox(CalendarsEvent event) {...}

Then you can call getBeginDate(), getEndDate(),or getCalendarItem() to implement your application logic. Please refer to javadoc for complete methods and their details.
