Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require crusherrl/ics-link-generator ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ``` use CrusherRL\IcsLinksGenerator; // ... $start = '2025-08-15 15:00:00'; // required $end = '2025-08-15 16:30:00'; // required $summary = 'Welcome on Board!'; // optional $location = 'any location'; // optional $description = 'Let\'s talk about this stuff'; // optional $allDay = 'false'; // optional - NOTE: it should be true or false as string, since we urlencode this, it would be converted to 0 (false) or 1 (true) // Building base for the generator $generator = new IcsLinksGenerator($start, $end, $summary, $location, $description, $allDay); // OR $generator = IcsLinksGenerator::make(['DTSTART' => $start, 'DTEND' => $end]); // OR Like from an URL! $generator = IcsLinksGenerator::fromUrl('https://example.com/create-event?summary=Meeting&description=Discuss+project&location=Office&start=20250430T100000Z&end=20250430T110000Z') // OR Like from an URL but the query is base64 encoded $generator = IcsLinksGenerator::fromUrl('https://example.com/create-event?c3VtbWFyeT1NZWV0aW5nJmRlc2NyaXB0aW9uPURpc2N1c3MrcHJvamVjdCZsb2NhdGlvbj1PZmZpY2Umc3RhcnQ9MjAyNTA0MzBUMTAwMDAwWiZlbmQ9MjAyNTA0MzBUMTEwMDAwWg'); // Actual Generating the urls // Generating all possible urls $urls = $generator->generate(); // Generating only specific urls $urls = $generator->generateSpecific([IcsLinksGenerator::YAHOO, IcsLinksGenerator::AOL, IcsLinksGenerator::OUTLOOK_MOBILE]); ``` ### Output [](#output) After generating the urls, we receive those kind of arrays. **Serialized** [Example of all urls](examples/serialized/all.json) [Example of specific urls - serialized](examples/serialized/specific.json) **Unserialized** [Example of all urls](examples/unserialized/all.json) [Example of specific urls](examples/unserialized/specific.json) **Url** [Example of all urls](examples/url/all.json) [Example of specific urls](examples/url/specific.json) **base64** [Example of all urls](examples/base64/all.json) [Example of specific urls](examples/base64/specific.json) ### Format output [](#format-output) If needed you can change the labels, before generating the urls. Just simply setLabels which you want to change. ``` use CrusherRL\IcsLinksGenerator; // ... $generator->setLabels([IcsLinksGenerator::OUTLOOK => 'Outlook.com']); ``` Our output will change from this: ``` { "OUTLOOK": { "client": "outlook", "label": "Outlook", "url": "https:\/\/outlook.live.com\/calendar\/0\/action\/compose?&allday=false&body=&enddt=2023-08-15T16%3A30%3A00&location=&path=%2Fcalendar%2Faction%2Fcompose&rru=addevent&startdt=2023-08-15T15%3A00%3A00&subject=" } } ``` to this: ``` { "OUTLOOK": { "client": "outlook", "label": "Outlook.com", "url": "https:\/\/outlook.live.com\/calendar\/0\/action\/compose?&allday=false&body=&enddt=2023-08-15T16%3A30%3A00&location=&path=%2Fcalendar%2Faction%2Fcompose&rru=addevent&startdt=2023-08-15T15%3A00%3A00&subject=" } } ``` ### Generating url. [](#generating-url) In case you need to generate 1 or 2 urls without serialization. This is how you do it. ``` use CrusherRL\IcsLinksGenerator; // ... // Actual Generating the urls // Generating all possible urls $urls = $generator->generate(false); // Generating only specific urls $urls = $generator->generateSpecific([IcsLinksGenerator::YAHOO, IcsLinksGenerator::AOL, IcsLinksGenerator::OUTLOOK_MOBILE], false); // OR you can get url only, like this $aol = $generator->makeAOLUrl(); $yahoo = $generator->makeYahooUrl(); $google = $generator->makeGoogleUrl(); $office = $generator->makeOfficeUrl(); $officeMobile = $generator->makeOfficeMobileUrl(); $outlook = $generator->makeOutlookUrl(); $outlookMobile = $generator->makeOutlookMobileUrl(); ``` How to contribute ----------------- [](#how-to-contribute) - clone the repo - on `composer.json` of a laravel nova application add the following: ``` { //...
