DayPilot.Scheduler.events.load(url, success, error);
This method loads events from a given URL using an AJAX call (GET or POST, depending on eventsLoadMethod value). The URL must return a JSON array with events (see DayPilot.Event.data for the event data structure).
For GET requests, the Scheduler will add start and end of the current view as query string parameters. Example:
/getEvents?start=2018-06-15T09:00:00&end=2018-06-15T13:00:00
POST requests will contain the start and end parameters as a JSON object in the request body (since version 8.1):
Example POST body:
{"start": "2018-06-15T09:00:00", "end": "2018-06-15T13:00:00"}
The Scheduler is updated automatically after a successful AJAX call. You can cancel the client-side refresh by calling args.preventDefault() in the success callback function.
function success(args) {}
The success callback is only executed if the data is successfully received from the URL and it can be parsed as a JSON array.
Arguments:
function error(args) {}
The error callback is executed when the HTTP return code is other than 200 or 304 or if there is an exception during parsing the JSON data.
Arguments:
dp.events.load("/getEvents");
This example will load events from "/getEvents" URL. The current date range is passed in "start" and "end" POST parameters.
dp.events.load( "/getEvents", function success(args) { dp.message("Events loaded"); }, function error(args) { dp.message("Loading failed."); } );
Sample data returned from /getEvents:
[ { id: 1 start: "2018-01-01T09:00:00", end: "2018-01-01T13:00:00", text: "Event 1", resource: "A", cssClass: "my-event", resizeDisabled: true }, { id: 2 start: "2018-01-02T09:00:00", end: "2018-01-02T13:00:00", resource: "B", text: "Event 2" } ]
