Material-Calendar-View

Material-Calendar-View is a simple and customizable calendar widget for Android based on Material Design. The widget has two funcionalities: a date picker to select dates (available as an XML widget and a dialog) and a classic calendar. The date picker can work either as a single day picker, many days picker or range picker.

We described a simple usage of the component in this article.

Features

• Material Design
• Single date picker
• Many dates picker
• Range picker
• Events icons
• Fully colors customization

How to migrate from previous version to 1.6.0?

We have renamed setOnPreviousButtonClickListener() and setOnForwardButtonClickListener() so please refer to Previous and forward buttons listeners.

How to use?

Make sure you are using the newest com.android.support:appcompat-v7.

Make sure you are using Java 8 in your project. If not, add below code to build.gradle file:

android {
    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }
}

Make sure you have defined the jcenter() repository in project's build.gradle file:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
    }
}

Add the dependency to module's build.gradle file:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.applandeo:material-calendar-view:1.6.0'
}

To your XML layout file add:

<com.applandeo.materialcalendarview.CalendarView
    android:id="@+id/calendarView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" />

Adding events with icons:

List<EventDay> events = new ArrayList<>();

Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
events.add(new EventDay(calendar, R.drawable.sample_icon));
//or
events.add(new EventDay(calendar, new Drawable()));

CalendarView calendarView = (CalendarView) findViewById(R.id.calendarView);
calendarView.setEvents(events);

How to create icons?

Drawable with text:

You can use our utils method to create Drawable with text

CalendarUtils.getDrawableText(Context context, String text, Typeface typeface, int color, int size);

Dots indicator:

Take a look at sample_three_icons.xml and adjust it to your project

Clicks handling:

calendarView.setOnDayClickListener(new OnDayClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onDayClick(EventDay eventDay) {
        Calendar clickedDayCalendar = eventDay.getCalendar();    
    }
});

Getting a selected days in the picker mode:

If you want to get all selected days, especially if you use multi date or range picker you should use the following code:

List<Calendar> selectedDates = calendarView.getSelectedDates();

...or if you want to get the first selected day, for example in case of using single date picker, you can use:

Calendar selectedDate = calendarView.getFirstSelectedDate();

Setting a current date:

Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar.set(2019, 7, 5);
        
calendarView.setDate(calendar);

Setting minumum and maximum dates:

Calendar min = Calendar.getInstance();
Calendar max = Calendar.getInstance();

calendarView.setMinimumDate(min);
calendarView.setMaximumDate(max);

Setting disabled dates:

List<Calendar> calendars = new ArrayList<>();
calendarView.setDisabledDays(calendars);

Setting highlighted dates:

List<Calendar> calendars = new ArrayList<>();
calendarView.setHighlightedDates(calendars);

Setting selected dates:

List<Calendar> calendars = new ArrayList<>();
calendarView.setSelectedDates(calendars);

Caution!

• Don't pass more than one calendar object to method above if your calendar type is CalendarView.ONE_DAY_PICKER.
• If your calendar type is CalendarView.RANGE_PICKER you have to pass full dates range. To get it you can use our utils method CalendarUtils.getDatesRange(Calendar firstDay, Calendar lastDay).

Previous and forward page change listeners:

calendarView.setOnPreviousPageChangeListener(new OnCalendarPageChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onChange() {
        ...
    }
});

calendarView.setOnForwardPageChangeListener(new OnCalendarPageChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onChange() {
        ...
    }
});

DatePickerBuilder builder = new DatePickerBuilder(this, listener)
                .pickerType(CalendarView.ONE_DAY_PICKER);

DatePicker datePicker = builder.build();
datePicker.show();

To use another picker type replace CalendarView.ONE_DAY_PICKER with CalendarView.MANY_DAYS_PICKER or CalendarView.RANGE_PICKER.

Getting date handling:

private OnSelectDateListener listener = new OnSelectDateListener() {
    @Override
    public void onSelect(List<Calendar> calendars) {
        ...
    }
};

Customization:

new DatePickerBuilder(this, listener)
        .date(Calendar.getInstance()) // Initial date as Calendar object
