How to set any day/week/month as default view in zk-calendar?

I'm using ZK CE-9.0.0 & zk-calendar-2.1.5 source code.

Whenever I open the calendar by default it displays today/current week/current month as per its mold. If I want to navigate to other day/week/month, I have to use the buttons provided.

DefaultViewDay

DefaultViewWeek

DefaultViewMonth

My requirement is, it should display the day/week/month specified by my program. Specified date can be in future or in past. That should be displayed by default. Can anyone tell me how can I achieve this?

Thanks,

Solution

  • ZK Calendar can be initialized as explained on the first page (2nd paragraph) of ZK Calendars Essentials

    E.g. you can switch to the month view by calling:

    calendars.setMold("month");

    or specify a 7-days-view by calling:

    calendars.setMold("default");
calendars.setDays(7);

    The current date can be set by:

    calendars.setCurrentDate(aDate);

    Please also refer to the zk calendar javadocs

    UPDATE:

    Here a runnable piece of code setting the current date to something different than today using setCurrentDate (as mentioned above):

    <?import java.text.*?>
<zk>
    <calendars id="cal"/>
    <zscript><![CDATA[
        SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
        cal.setCurrentDate(sdf.parse("2019-01-14"));
        Clients.log("displaying from " + cal.getBeginDate() + " to " + cal.getEndDate());
    ]]></zscript>
</zk>

    The calendar then shows the current week around this date. The same will happen for the month view. enter image description here
