Topic: Calendar Validation

stefangregg priority asked 2 years ago


Hia,

What event listeners handle the validation for adding an event in the calendar plugin?

Or is there a way to set the value of the input dynamically?

enter image description here

I am looking to use jquery to prefill the summary box with .val(), however on submit, it still saids the field is invalid until I physically type in the box. I am hoping I can call .val() and then trigger an event to get around this.

Thanks

Unfortunately, at the moment there is no dedicated option/method, but I have a solution for you:

const modalAdd = calendarInstance._addEventModal;

modalAdd.addEventListener('shown.mdb.modal', () => {
  const modalBtnSave = modalAdd.querySelector('.modal .btn-add-event');
  const modalInputSummary = modalAdd.querySelector('.modal .calendar-summary-input');

  modalBtnSave.addEventListener('mousedown', () => {
    if (!modalInputSummary.value) {
      modalInputSummary.value = 'default value';
      modalInputSummary.dispatchEvent(new Event('input'));
    }
  }, {once : true})
})
