Hi
I would like to display a calender (using FullCalendar.io). The calender itself works: Kalender der KGS | KGS Rastede
My question is about parsing a .ics-File. The calender is going to be readonly. It will display events that are stored in a .ics-file. The file itself is maintained in Outlook and exported ~once a week.
Now my problem is about the parsing. I general it I need to do basically this in pseudocode)
calenderdata = file.open('calender.ics')
for event in calenderdata:
create_event(...)
But how do I do that? Has anyone here ever done this? I could write a simple parser myself, but there has to be a simple library for this… I just cannot find it…
The fileformat (this is real data) looks like this:
BEGIN:VEVENT

There are several solutions like iCalCreator: Create schedule calendars in iCal format - PHP Classes.
But perhaps somebody here has a good solution for such a simple parsing-‘problem’…?
