To get an event calendar in CodeIgniter, you can use a library like FullCalendar. Here's how you can do it:

1. First, download the FullCalendar library from https://fullcalendar.io/ and extract the files to your CodeIgniter project directory.
2. Include the necessary CSS and JS files in your CodeIgniter view file where you want to display the calendar:

1
2

<link href="/path/to/fullcalendar/main.css" rel='stylesheet' />
<script src="/path/to/fullcalendar/main.js"></script>

1. In your CodeIgniter controller, create a function to fetch the events data from your database and pass it to the view:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9

public function calendar()
{
    $this->load->model('Event_model');
    $events = $this->Event_model->get_events();

    $data['events'] = json_encode($events);

    $this->load->view('calendar_view', $data);
}

1. In your view file (calendar_view.php), initialize the FullCalendar and pass the events data to it:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
13
14
15

<div id='calendar'></div>

<script>
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
        var calendarEl = document.getElementById('calendar');
        var events = <?php echo $events; ?>;

        var calendar = new FullCalendar.Calendar(calendarEl, {
            events: events,
            timeZone: 'local',
        });

        calendar.render();
    });
</script>

1. Update your Event_model to retrieve events data from your database:

1
2
3
4
5

public function get_events()
{
    $query = $this->db->get('events');
    return $query->result_array();
}

1. Make sure to create an events table in your database and insert some sample data for testing.

With the above steps, you should now have a functional event calendar in your CodeIgniter project. You can further customize the calendar view and event data according to your requirements.
