FSCalender Not Showing Events on It?

Question

How to display events on Fscalender?

This is my code to fetch events from api call.

func SetUpUIDashBoardCalenderdata()
{
    APIManager.sharedInstance.FetchParentDashboardCalenderDataFromURL(){(dashBoardCalenderJson)-> Void in
        let calenderVar = JSON(dashBoardCalenderJson)
        print("calenderVar----",calenderVar)
        let info = calenderVar["dates"].rawString()
        let jsonData = info?.data(using: .utf8)!
        let dictionary = try? JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with: jsonData!, options: [])  as! Array<Any>
        print("dictionary",dictionary)

    }
}

you must have to convert your date response into **yyyy-MM-dd** format.Try this link https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50020859/selection-color-changes-the-events-color-in-fscalendar/52170654#52170654 — Yash Bhikadiya, Sep 17 '18 at 16:37

You should implement FSCalendarDataSource protocol.

please take a look at my example :

let events = [Date]()

fileprivate lazy var dateFormatter: DateFormatter = {
    let formatter = DateFormatter()
    formatter.dateFormat = "yyyy/MM/dd"
    return formatter
}()

func calendar(_ calendar: FSCalendar, numberOfEventsFor date: Date) -> Int {
    let dayFormatted = dateFormatter.string(from: date)
    var counter = 0
    for event in events{
        let day = dateFormatter.string(from: event)
        if dayFormatted == day{
            counter += 1
        }
    }
    return counter
}

or shorter :

func calendar(_ calendar: FSCalendar, numberOfEventsFor date: Date) -> Int {
    let dayFormatted = dateFormatter.string(from: date)
    return events.filter({ dateFormatter.string(from: $0) == dayFormatted }).count
}

@kishore This is not what you asked for in your question. You asked how to display events in `Fscalender`. btw `dictionary["dates"]` is your array of dates – Maor Oct 11 '17 at 15:01
