[SOLVED] Fullcalendar Function Not In Scope

Fullcalendar Function Not In Scope

I am trying to interact with Fullcalendar from outside of scope. For example below, I am trying to change the colour of an event. Another example would be to simply display an alert with the current view.

The catch is, that I am using a tool called FileMaker which has the ability to Perform A Function Inside Javascript rather than a button inside of the HTML.

As far as I am aware, I don't have an event listener I can use. Is there a way I can have the calendar render globally?

                    var calendar = new FullCalendar.Calendar
                    (
                        calendarEl,
                        {
                            plugins: [ 'dayGrid' ]
                            ,events: 'https://fullcalendar.io/api/demo-feeds/events.json'
                        }

                    calendar.render();
                }
            );

            function changeColour(id)
            {
                var event = calendar.getEventById(id);
                event.setProp( color, '#000000' );
            }

        </script>

    </head>
    
    <body>
        <div id='calendar-container'>
            <div id='calendar'></div>

Solution

Try moving your changeColour function inside the DOMContentLoaded function and attaching it to the window explicitly

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(){
    var calendar = new FullCalendar....
    ....
    window.changeColour = function(id){
        var event = calendar.getEventById(id);
        event.setProp( color, '#000000' );
    }
}

That way it should be able to access calendar
