Full API

Props

Name	Type	Default	Description
events	Array	required	Events to display, in Event Item format (see below).
selectedDate	Date	required	Date to show the week-view in the first render. Note: changing this prop after the first render will not have any effect in the week-view; to actually move the week-view, use the goToDate() method, see below.
numberOfDays	Number, one of 1, 3, 5, 7	required	Number of days to show in the week-view.
Gesture interactions
onEventPress	Function: (event) => {}	null	Callback when an event item is pressed, receives the event-item pressed: (event) => {}.
onEventLongPress	Function: (event) => {}	null	Callback when an event item is long pressed, same signature as onEventPress.
onSwipeNext	Function: (date) => {}	null	Callback when week-view is swiped to next week/days, receives new date shown.
onSwipePrev	Function: (date) => {}	null	Callback when week-view is swiped to previous week/days, same signature as onSwipeNext.
onGridClick	Function: (pressEvent, startHour, date) => {}	null	Callback when the grid view is pressed. Arguments: pressEvent: object passed by the TouchableWithoutFeedback.onPress() method (not an event item); startHour: Number, hour pressed; date Date, date object indicating day and time pressed with precision up to seconds. Note: startHour is redundant (can be extracted from date), but is kept for backward-compatibility.
onGridLongPress	Function: (pressEvent, startHour, date) => {}	null	Callback when the grid view is long-pressed. Same signature as onGridClick
onDragEvent	Function: (event, newStartDate, newEndDate) => update DB	null	Callback when an event item is dragged to another position. Arguments: event: event-item moved, and the newStartDate and newEndDate are Date objects with day and hour of the new position (precision up to minutes). With this callback you must trigger an update on the events prop (i.e. update your DB), with the updated information from the event.
onDayPress	Function: (date, formattedDate) => {}	null	Callback when a day from the header is pressed.
onMonthPress	Function: (date, formattedDate) => {}	null	Callback when the month at the top left (title) is pressed.
Week-view customizations
startHour	Number	8 (8 am)	Vertical position of the week-view in the first render (vertically in the agenda).
initialHour	Number	3600 (6 am) in minutes	Send the time in minutes so it can start as per the sent. For example, if you send 3600 it will show 6 hours. Vertical position of the week-view in the first render (vertically in the agenda).
finalHour	Number	23 (23 am) in hour	Vertical position of the week-view in the first render (vertically in the agenda).
weekStartsOn	Number	1 (Monday)	First day of the week, i.e. day to show at the left of the week-view (0 is Sunday, 1 is Monday, and so on). Only useful when numberOfDays === 7 or fixedHorizontally is true.
showTitle	Boolean	true	Show or hide the selected month and year in the top-left corner (a.k.a the title).
hoursInDisplay	Number	6	Amount of hours to display vertically in the agenda. Increasing this number will make the events look smaller.
timeStep	Number	60 (minutes)	Number of minutes to use as step in the time labels at the left. Increasing this number will increase the vertical space between grid lines.
formatDateHeader	String	"MMM D" (e.g. "Apr 3")	Formatter for dates in the header. See all formatters in momentjs.
formatTimeLabel	String	"H:mm" (24 hours)	Formatter for the time labels at the left. Other examples, AM/PM: "h:mm A" or "h:mm a" for lowercase. See all formatters in momentjs.
EventComponent	ReactComponent	Text	Custom component rendered inside an event. By default, is a Text with the event.description. See sub-section below for details on the component.
TodayHeaderComponent	ReactComponent	null	Custom component to highlight today in the header (by default, today looks the same than every day). See details in sub-section below
showNowLine	Boolean	false	If true, displays a line indicating the time right now.
nowLineColor	String	red (#E53935)	Color used for the now-line.
fixedHorizontally	Boolean	false	If true, the component can be used to display a single fixed week. See example in sub-section below.
isRefreshing	Boolean	false	When true, the week-view will show an <ActivityIndicator /> in the middle of the grid.
RefreshComponent	ReactComponent	ActivityIndicator	Custom component used when isRefreshing is true. See example below.
locale	String	"en"	Locale for the dates (e.g. header). There's an addLocale() function to add customized locale, see below.

Style props
headerStyle	Object	-	Custom styles for header container. Example: { backgroundColor: '#4286f4', color: '#fff', borderColor: '#fff' }
headerTextStyle	Object	-	Custom styles for text inside header. Applied to day names and month name (i.e. title)
hourTextStyle	Object	-	Custom styles for text displaying hours at the left.
eventContainerStyle	Object	-	Custom styles for each event item container. Note: the background color and (absolute) positioning are already set.
Grid lines props
gridRowStyle	Object	width: 1, color: grey (#E9EDF0)	Prop to customize width and color of horizontal lines, provide: { borderTopWidth: <width>, borderColor: <color> }
gridColumnStyle	Object	same as above	Prop to customize width and color of vertical lines, provide: { borderLeftWidth: <width>, borderColor: <color> }
Other props (patch RN bugs)
prependMostRecent	Boolean	false	If true, the horizontal prepending is done in the most recent dates when scrolling.

Event Item

{
  id: 1,
  description: 'Event',
  startDate: new Date(2021, 3, 15, 12, 0),
  endDate: new Date(2021, 3, 15, 12, 30),
  color: 'blue',
  // ... more properties if needed,
}

Methods

To use the component methods save a reference to it:

<WeekView
  // ... other props
  ref={(ref) => { this.weekViewRef = ref; }}
/>

• goToDate(date, animated = true): the component navigates to a custom date. Note: if the target date has not been rendered before, there may be a delay on the animation.
• goToNextPage(animated = true): the component navigates to the next page (to the future). Note: if prependMostRecent is true, and the component is near the last page rendered, there may be a delay on the animation.
• goToPrevPage(animated = true): the component navigates to the previous page (to the past). Note: if prependMostRecent is false (the default), and the component is near the first page rendered, there may be a delay on the animation.

Custom EventComponent

The custom component will be rendered inside a TouchableOpacity, which has the background color set to event.color, and is placed with absolute position in the grid. The component receives two props:

• event (Event) - Event item as described before.
• position: (Object) - object containing top, left, height and width values in pixels.

For example, to display an icon inside each event, such as a react-native-elements Icon:

const MyEventComponent = ({ event, position }) => (
  <Icon
    name={event.iconName}
    type={event.iconType}
    color={event.color}
    size={position.height}
  />
);

<WeekView
  // ... other props
  EventComponent={MyEventComponent}
/>

Custom TodayComponent

Use this prop to highlight today in the header, by rendering it differently from the other days. The component TodayHeaderComponent receives these props:

• date (moment Date) - moment date object containing today's date.
• formattedDate (String) - day formatted according to formatDateHeader, e.g. "Mon 3".
• textStyle (Object) - text style used for every day.

For example, to highlight today with a bold font:

const MyTodayComponent = ({ formattedDate, textStyle }) => (
  <Text style={[textStyle, { fontWeight: 'bold' }]}>{formattedDate}</Text>
);

<WeekView
  // ... other props
  TodayHeaderComponent={MyTodayComponent}
/>

Locales customization

There's a addLocale function to add customized locale for the component. The component depends on momentjs, you can refer to https://momentjs.com/docs/#/customization/ for more information.

Example:

export WeekView, { addLocale } from 'react-native-schedule-week-view';
// add customized localed before using locale prop.
addLocale('fr', {
  months: 'janvier_février_mars_avril_mai_juin_juillet_août_septembre_octobre_novembre_décembre'.split('_'),
  monthsShort: 'janv._févr._mars_avr._mai_juin_juil._août_sept._oct._nov._déc.'.split('_'),
  weekdays: 'dimanche_lundi_mardi_mercredi_jeudi_vendredi_samedi'.split('_'),
  weekdaysShort: 'dim._lun._mar._mer._jeu._ven._sam.'.split('_'),
});

Custom RefreshComponent

• RefreshComponent is a ReactComponent that receives a style prop that must be used (since it sets the component position).
• Note: the ActivityIndicator default color in some devices may be white.

Example:

const MyRefreshComponent = ({ style }) => (
  <Text style={style}>loading...</Text>
);

<WeekView
  // ... other props
  RefreshComponent={MyRefreshComponent}
/>

Other example usages

Fixed week

The WeekView component can be used to display a fixed week (as a timetable):

• Use the prop fixedHorizontally={true}. This prop should not be changed after the first render

• To set startDate and endDate in each event, you should use the function provided: createFixedWeekDate(day, hour, minutes=0, seconds=0), where:

  • day: (Number|String) - specify day of the week as number (1 is monday, 2 is tuesday, etc) or as string (will be parsed with the current locale, e.g. "Monday", "Tuesday", etc. for english).
  • hour: (Number) - specify hour of the day as number (from 0 to 23)
  • minutes: (Number) - specify minutes of the day as number (from 0 to 59), defaults to 0
  • seconds: (Number) - specify seconds of the day as number (from 0 to 59), defaults to 0

  If you choose to not use createFixedWeekDate(), make sure that startDate and endDate are Date objects within this week, otherwise the events will not be displayed correctly in the timetable.

• If the numberOfDays is other than 7, will display the first days of the week. E.g. if numberOfDays === 5, will display from monday to friday.

import WeekView, { createFixedWeekDate } from 'react-native-schedule-week-view';

const myEvents = [
  {
    id: 1,
    description: 'Event 1',
    startDate: createFixedWeekDate('Monday', 12), // Day may be passed as string
    endDate: createFixedWeekDate(1, 14), // Or as number, 1 = monday
    color: 'blue',
  },
  {
    id: 2,
    description: 'Event 2',
    startDate: createFixedWeekDate('wed', 16),
    endDate: createFixedWeekDate(3, 16, 30),
    color: 'red',
  },
];

const MyComponent = () => (
  <WeekView
    events={myEvents}
    fixedHorizontally={true}
    // Recommended props:
    showTitle={false} // if true, shows this month and year
    numberOfDays={7}
    formatDateHeader="ddd" // display short name days, e.g. Mon, Tue, etc
    // ... other props
  />
);
