Add the plugin.

To use it, please add it at Plugin in the GROWI administration page, the URL is https://github.com/goofmint/growi-plugin-calendar.

Usage.

To use, write $calendar in the page. The calendar will be displayed where you write.

$calendar

Click on a date to create a new page with that date. This can be used for daily reports, diaries, etc.

Options.

Available options include.

Change the year and month to be displayed.

You can change the year and month displayed by specifying the month as the first argument and the year as the second argument.

$calendar(12,2021)

Changing the display language

The default is English, but you can change the display language with the lang option. Japanese is ja.

$calendar(lang=fr)

Changing the criteria for generating a page name when clicking on a date

By default, clicking on a date generates a page name YYYYY/MM/DD. In other words, it is a hierarchical structure. You can change this.

$calendar(separator=-)

The above will generate pages like 2024-10-02. If you do not like the hierarchical structure, use this.

Combinations of settings

The above options can be combined.

$calendar(12,2021,lang=fr,separator=-)
$calendar(12,2021,separator=-)

About the code

About client-entry.tsx

The client-entry.tsx is the registration part of the plugin. The calendar plugin is registered as a Remark plugin.

const activate = (): void => {
  if (growiFacade == null || growiFacade.markdownRenderer == null) {
    return;
  }

  const { optionsGenerators } = growiFacade.markdownRenderer;

  optionsGenerators.customGenerateViewOptions = (...args) => {
    const options = optionsGenerators.generateViewOptions(...args);
    options.remarkPlugins.push(plugin as any); // プラグイン登録
    return options;
  };
};

About src/calendar.ts

The calendar display uses Vanilla Calendar - Lightweight calendar on pure JavaScript. available in JavaScript.

import VanillaCalendar from ‘vanilla-calendar-pro’;.
import ‘vanilla-calendar-pro/build/vanilla-calendar.min.css’;

In the case of the Remark plugin, the entire drawing process is sent to the visit function, so only the part of this that displays the calendar is extracted.

export const plugin: Plugin = function() {
  return (tree) => {
    visit(tree, (node) => {
      const n = node as unknown as GrowiNode;
      try {
        if (n.type === 'leafGrowiPluginDirective' && n.name === 'calendar') {
                    // process in here
                }
            } catch (e) {
                n.type = 'html';
        n.value = `<div style="color: red;">Error: ${(e as Error).message}</div>`;
      }
        });
    });
};

Getting options.

Option data can be retrieved via node.attributes.

const [month, year] = Object.keys(n.attributes);
const lang = n.attributes.lang || 'en';
const separator = n.attributes.separator || '/';

Then, once done, only the calendar tags are output.

n.type = 'html';
n.value = '<div id="calendar"></div>';

After the HTML is rendered and we see that #calendar is there, we start the drawing process.

const id = setInterval(() => {
    if (document.querySelector('#calendar') != null) {
        // カレンダーオブジェクト作成
        const cal = new VanillaCalendar('#calendar', {
            settings: {
                lang, // 表示言語
                // 表示年月
                selected: {
                    month: isNaN(month as unknown as number) ? new Date().getMonth() : parseInt(month) - 1,
                    year: isNaN(year as unknown as number) ? new Date().getFullYear() : parseInt(year),
                },
            },
            actions: {
                // 日付クリック時の処理
                async clickDay(event, self) {
                    const page = self.selectedDates[0].replaceAll(/-/g, separator);
                    const path = await getPagePath();
                    location.href = `${path}${page}`;
                },
            },
        });
        // 表示
        cal.init();
        // 終了
        clearInterval(id);
    }
}, 100);

Processing when a date is clicked

When the date is clicked, the page information is retrieved and the page name is correctly retrieved.

const getPagePath = async() => {
    if (location.pathname === '/') return '/';
    const pageId = location.pathname.replace(/\//, '');
    const res = await fetch(`/_api/v3/page?pageId=${pageId}`);
    const json = await res.json();
    const { path } = json.page;
    return `${path}/`;
};

Summary.
