Generate Calendar .ics-files (iCal) in PHP with a low memory footprint

This project uses [the library written by Justin Svrcek](https://github.com/jasvrcek/ICS).

This library is intended to be used if you're planning to generate large .ics-files for which all the events cannot be stored in-memory. The library fetches the events in batches and prints the resulting entries directly, in order to keep the memory footprint to a minimum.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use ICS_Large\Model\Calendar;
use ICS_Large\Model\CalendarEventList;
use ICS_Large\CalendarStream;
use Jsvrcek\ICS\CalendarExport;
use Jsvrcek\ICS\Utility\Formatter;

$closure = function($offset, $size) {

  // (build array of CalendarEvent objects)

  return [];
};

$calendar = new Calendar();
$calendar->setEvents(new CalendarEventList($closure));

$export = new CalendarExport(new CalendarStream(), new Formatter());
$export->addCalendar($calendar);
echo $export->getStream();
```
