Angular Calendar Component

Calendar

The Angular Calendar Component is a versatile, customizable tool for creating responsive calendars in Angular, supporting day, month, and year selection, with global locales.

Available in Other JavaScript Frameworks

CoreUI Angular Calendar Component is also available for Bootstrap, React, and Vue. Explore framework-specific implementations below:

Example

Explore the Angular Calendar basic usage through sample code snippets demonstrating its core functionality.

Days

Select specific days using the Angular Calendar component. The example below shows basic usage.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-days',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-days.component.html'
})
export class CalendarDaysComponent {
  startDate = new Date();
}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" locale="en-US" [startDate]="startDate" />
</div>

Weeks

Set the selectionType to week to enable selection of entire week. You can also add showWeekNumber to show week numbers.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-weeks',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-weeks.component.html'
})
export class CalendarWeeksComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" selectionType="week" showWeekNumber startDate="2024W42" calendarDate="2024W42" />
</div>

Months

Set the selectionType property to month to enable selection of entire months.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-months',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-months.component.html'
})
export class CalendarMonthsComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" selectionType="month" />
</div>

Years

Set the selectionType property to year to enable years range selection.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-years',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-years.component.html'
})
export class CalendarYearsComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" selectionType="year" />
</div>

Multiple calendar panels

Display multiple calendar panels side by side by setting the calendars property. This can be useful for selecting ranges or comparing dates across different months.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-multiple-panels',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-multiple-panels.component.html'
})
export class CalendarMultiplePanelsComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" calendars="2" />
</div>

Range selection

Enable range selection to allow users to pick a start and end date. This example shows how to configure the Angular Calendar component to handle date ranges.

import { Component, signal } from '@angular/core';
import { ButtonDirective, CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';
import { DatePipe } from '@angular/common';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-range-selection',
  imports: [CalendarComponent, DatePipe, ButtonDirective],
  templateUrl: './calendar-range-selection.component.html'
})
export class CalendarRangeSelectionComponent {
  readonly startDate = signal<Date | null>(new Date());
  readonly endDate = signal<Date | null>(
    new Date(new Date().getFullYear(), new Date().getMonth(), new Date().getDate() + 7)
  );

  handleClear() {
    this.endDate.set(null);
    this.startDate.set(null);
  }
}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar
    [(endDate)]="endDate"
    [(startDate)]="startDate"
    calendars="2"
    class="border rounded"
    range
  />
</div>
<hr>
<button (click)="handleClear()" cButton>Clear</button> {{ startDate() | date }} - {{ endDate() | date }}

Disabled dates

The Calendar component includes functionality to disable specific dates, such as weekends or holidays, using the disabledDates prop. This prop takes an array of dates to determine which dates should be disabled. Other useful props include minDate and maxDate to set the minimum and maximum selectable dates. The dateFilter prop can be used to apply custom logic to determine which dates are selectable.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-disabled-dates',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-disabled-dates.component.html'
})
export class CalendarDisabledDatesComponent {
  public calendarDate = new Date(2024, 2, 1);
  public disabledDates = [
    [new Date(2024, 2, 4), new Date(2024, 2, 7)], // range of dates that cannot be selected
    new Date(2024, 2, 16), // single date that cannot be selected
    new Date(2024, 3, 16),
    [new Date(2024, 4, 2), new Date(2024, 4, 8)]
  ];
  public maxDate = new Date(2024, 5, 0);
  public minDate = new Date(2024, 0, 1);

  dateFilter = (date: Date | null): boolean => {
    // Sundays cannot be selected
    const day = date?.getDay();
    return day !== 0;
  };
}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar [calendarDate]="calendarDate"
              [dateFilter]="dateFilter"
              [disabledDates]="disabledDates"
              [maxDate]="maxDate"
              [minDate]="minDate"
              calendars="2"
              class="border rounded"
  />
</div>

Non-english locale

The CoreUI Angular Calendar allows users to display dates in non-English locales, making it suitable for international applications.

Auto

By default, the Calendar component uses the browser’s default locale. However, you can easily configure it to use a different locale supported by the JavaScript Internationalization API. This feature helps create inclusive and accessible applications for a diverse audience.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-auto',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-auto.component.html'
})
export class CalendarAutoComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" />
</div>

Chinese

Here is an example of the Angular Calendar component with Chinese locale settings.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-chinese',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-chinese.component.html'
})
export class CalendarChineseComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" locale="zh-CN" />
</div>

Japanese

Below is an example of the Angular Calendar component with Japanese locale settings.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-japanese',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-japanese.component.html'
})
export class CalendarJapaneseComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" locale="ja" />
</div>

Korean

Here is an example of the Angular Calendar component with Korean locale settings.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-korean',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-korean.component.html'
})
export class CalendarKoreanComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" locale="ko" />
</div>

Right to left support

RTL support is built-in and can be explicitly controlled through the $enable-rtl variables in scss.

Hebrew

Example of the Angular Calendar component with RTL support, using the Hebrew locale.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-hebrew',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-hebrew.component.html'
})
export class CalendarHebrewComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center" dir="rtl">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" locale="he-IL" weekdayFormat="narrow" />
</div>

Persian

Example of the Angular Calendar component with Persian locale settings.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CalendarComponent } from '@coreui/angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'docs-calendar-persian',
  imports: [CalendarComponent],
  templateUrl: './calendar-persian.component.html'
})
export class CalendarPersianComponent {}

<div class="d-flex justify-content-center" dir="rtl">
  <c-calendar class="border rounded" locale="fa-IR" weekdayFormat="narrow"/>
</div>

Customizing

CSS variables

The Angular Calendar uses local CSS variables on .calendar for real-time customization. Values for these CSS variables are set via Sass, but they can also be overridden directly in the component for dynamic styling.

--cui-calendar-table-margin: #{$calendar-table-margin};
--cui-calendar-table-cell-size: #{$calendar-table-cell-size};
--cui-calendar-nav-padding: #{$calendar-nav-padding};
--cui-calendar-nav-border-color: #{$calendar-nav-border-color};

--cui-calendar-nav-icon-double-prev: #{escape-svg($calendar-nav-icon-double-prev)};
--cui-calendar-nav-icon-next: #{escape-svg($calendar-nav-icon-next)};
--cui-calendar-nav-icon-prev: #{escape-svg($calendar-nav-icon-prev)};
--cui-calendar-nav-icon-color: #{$calendar-nav-icon-color};
--cui-calendar-nav-icon-hover-color: #{$calendar-nav-icon-hover-color};
--cui-calendar-cell-header-inner-color: #{$calendar-cell-header-inner-color};
--cui-calendar-cell-week-number-color: #{$calendar-cell-week-number-color};
--cui-calendar-cell-hover-color: #{$calendar-cell-hover-color};

--cui-calendar-cell-selected-color: #{$calendar-cell-selected-color};
--cui-calendar-cell-selected-bg: #{$calendar-cell-selected-bg};
--cui-calendar-cell-range-bg: #{$calendar-cell-range-bg};
--cui-calendar-cell-range-hover-bg: #{$calendar-cell-range-hover-bg};
