This app combines the Calendar Application with the FullCalendar Application to provide an "out of the box" usable calendar with a slick UI.

After installing the extension you will see a "Calendar" entry in the applications panel. The application maintains several calendars, with a default calendar preinstalled. The start page will display all events of all calendars in the current month.
Users can either add new events (which end up in the default calendar, unless specified differently) or new calendars.

Calendars have a description and a color. All events of a calendar are displayed in its color. Events also have a short name, a description, a start and an end date. They can be "all day" events or have a defined start and end time.

Creating events

Clicking on the "Create an Event" link opens a modal dialog which allows you to give the new event a title, start and end date and time and a description. (The description only shows up in the details view). "All day" events are supported, too (currently you have to give even "all day" a dummy time for start and end date, too, which will be ignored however.)
Recurring events are not yet supported.

Dialog to create a new event

Editing events

Clicking on an event in the calendar opens the detail view of the event. In this dialog you can edit the event or delete the event (you have to confirm the delete in the dialog.)

Note: Events which are part of a subscribed calendar are read only, and cannot be edited through XWiki. Changing the color of such events can be done by editing the subscribed calendar they belong to.

Detail view of an existing event

Editing an existing event

Alternatively you can view the Event as a wiki page by clicking on the "View" button in the dialog; on that page you can add attachments, look at the history, etc.
You can go back to the calendar you came from via the link at the bottom, or to the main calendar overview via the link in the breadcrumbs.

An event viewed as wiki page

Subscribe to calendar

You can subscribe to a new calendar using the 'Subscribe to a Calendar' button on the app's home page. After clicking the button and entering the name of the calendar, you will need to complete a form with the iCal/s or gCal/s.

Import iCalendar from file

Next to the create event button, there is the option to import an iCalendar file, with the option to select to which calendar you want to make the import:

Managing Calendars

At the bottom of the overview page you can find a table of all existing calendars, with options to view edit or delete them, and a link to add new calendars on top of it:

List of all existing calendars

If you click on the "Create a calendar" link you will be first led to the normal "add page" dialog, which then will create a new calendar and show it to you in edit mode. You can set up the title, color (via the convenient color picker) and description. The latter is shown in the detail view of the calendar.

Editing a calendar

iCalendar export

You can use Mocca Calendar iCal export to add iCalendar export.
