Enumeration: HandlebarHelpers

The Simple Calendar module comes with some built in Handlebar helpers that can be used by other modules/systems to display information in areas other than in the Simple Calendar module.

Enumeration Members​

sc-clock​

• sc-clock = number

This handlebar helper is used to generate the HTML for displaying a clock view for the current time of the specified calendar.

Remarks

The clock does not automatically update. Listening to the DateTimeChange hook would allow you to refresh the clock display.

Parameters

  • id: string = ""
    The unique ID to set in the clock HTML.

  • calendarId: string = ""
    The ID of the calendar to get the time from. If no ID is provided the current active calendar will be used.

  • theme: string = "auto"
    The theme you want the clock to have. 'auto' means the theme will match what ever theme the current user has selected, 'none' means no theme will be applied, 'dark', 'light', 'classic' will apply that specific theme to the clock.

You can customize the clocks theme, how it looks, to be anything you like if you follow these steps:

  • Set the theme parameter to 'none'.
  • wrap them handlebar helper in a div with the 'simple-calendar' class (if you wish to keep the same structure for the calendar) <div class="simple-calendar"></div>
  • Create your custom CSS

Examples:

Example

Default Display

{{sc-clock id='unique_id' }}

This forces the theme to be the light theme for the clock, regardless of what the current users preferred Simple Calendar theme is set too.

• sc-full-calendar = number

This handlebar helper is used to generate the HTML for displaying a full calendar view for the current date or a passed in date.
