android-timetable

A timetable designed for planning employees to projects.

Features

Thin bars on top ('Events')
Weekly view (more on roadmap incoming)
Two drawing styles, Default and Diagonal lines
Colored bars
You don't need to create duplicate PlanItem objects. Just return the subjects in the planitem for whom or what they are for.
Red 'Today' line

Recent changes:

Pagination (you can set a http get call in a closure to return data per week)
Hourly 'Agenda' feature (this will be a different fragment)
Code improvements and additional features such as a long click listener
Visual enhancements

Concept

All items have a 'TimeRange' which are easily instantiated with TimeRange(from, to) and an optional 'recurrence' variable. If an item is recurring (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, etc.) you will be able to specify that in this time range if it is supported. (Keep in mind this is a feature still in progress on the roadmap!)

Items with the same start and end timestamp count as 00:00 to 23:59. Items with end date before start date are ignored and thus not displayed.

The PlanItem class or the IPlanItem interface are meant for regular planitems. Specify a name, optional color, style (default or diagonal lines), and subjects.

About the 'List<IPlanSubject<*>>', it's nothing scary. At all. In fact, let me demo how you create a planitem which just the objects supplied from the library. Remember, you don't need to implement the interface on your objects, you can instantiate them the following way:

// We're going to make a plan item for thomas and federica going on vacation.
// The identifier and name are the same for demo purposes.
// The identifier must implement Comparable - Integer, String, etc.
val thomas = PlanItemSubject("Thomas Schultz", "Thomas Schultz")
val federica = PlanItemSubject("Federica Carraro", "Federica Carraro")

// Let's create a vacation from today, lasting 23 days
val cal = Calendar.getInstance()
val startMillis = cal.timeInMillis
cal.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, 23)
val endMillis = cal.timeInMillis

val vacation = PlanItem("Vacation to Italy",
              TimeRange(startMillis, endMillis), 
              listOf(thomas, federica), 
              Color.GREEN, 
              Style.DEFAULT)

Some future ideas:

More (working) recurring TimeRange options: Hourly, Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly
Better text rendering for subjects and planitems
Dynamic loading delegate for the implementation of http paging
Month view
'Agenda' view (day view)
Exact start and end time for planitems (optional)
Custom TimeRange option so you or your user can specify your own
More styles for your planitems

Installation

@see https://github.com/GreaseMonk/android-timetable-core

Usage

1. Include the layout in your XML

<nl.greasemonk.timetable.EmployeePlanning
        android:id="@+id/plan_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" />

2. Implement your class with IPlanItem (or extend PlanItem )

As for the name on the left side (ie. employee name, class name, department name, etc.), you can implement IPlanSubject, or extend PlanItemSubject )

For an example of your Android Activity, please see the Demo Activity.

open class PlanItem(
        override val planItemName: String,
        override val timeRange: TimeRange,
        override val planItemSubjects: List<IPlanSubject<*>>?,
        override val planItemColor: Int?,
        override val planStyle: Style) : IPlanItem

3. Fill the table with data

val planning: EmployeePlanning = findViewById(R.id.plan_view);
planning.setItems(getMyData());
