How to extend CalendarView to allow selection of multiple dates? - android

I want to show a user with a calendar where multiple dates are selected.
While this could be easily achieved using Material Calendar View but I prefer not to use dependency for this simple task.
How could I achieve this by extending android CalendarView?
Please help

I would refer you to a comment on How to highlight multiple dates in Android CalendarView.
It basically says CalendarView does not support this, and that the point of CalendarView is to allow the user to choose a date.
Good luck!

How to display previews of previous and next month dates in CalendarView?

I'm trying to build a custom datepicker dialog. I used CalendarView instead of DatePicker since I didn't want the header used in DatePicker. This is how it looks now.
And this is what I want to achieve.
The future and previous dates should be visible. If clicked on future month's date, calendar should scroll to next month.
I couldn't find any properties/functions in CalendarView class to achieve this. Is there any other way to achieve this? Is there any 3rd party open-source library that does this?

Android Calender view color multiple dates and disable click

I am making an attendance app i want to highlight multiple dates where student is absent and also make calendar view not clickable.

This question doesn't look, you have done any research.
However, you can use https://github.com/Applandeo/Material-Calendar-View
Pros:
Easily customizable. [I have used in 3-4 projects so far]
Fits in requirement like range picker, one-day selection (event based)
Lightweight library, few files/ less code. You can also strip off the unnecessary code of range picker and other if you want. As for me, the requirement was only One-day-picker
i want to highlight multiple dates where student is absent
You can create a list of object of EventDay which take the Calendar instance. You can pass it to the CalendarView. It will show the different event aka absentees in your case.
make calendar view not clickable
That's not the big deal, You can easily do that as CalendarView is a custom view itself.
This is my latest screenshot from one of my project. It work really well.

Android: Customizing Calendar View style to show weekview

I created a view that has CalendarView added programatically.
Code:
CalendarView calendarView = new CalendarView(context);
calendarView.setDate(new Date().getTime());
cardInner.addView(calendarView);

The current set up is the one on the screenshot. I was wondering if there is a way to make it look this way?

This is not possible using the CalendarView widget from AOSP. See https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/CalendarView.html
It is however possible to prevent the user from picking any date other than a date inside a certain week. You can achieve this by using the setMinDate and setMaxDate methods: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/CalendarView.html#setMaxDate(long)
A third option would be extending the CalendarView widget and altering the onDraw method to only draw one row.
Also, try and search around on google. There might be a 3rd party library that can already do this.

You can use Yadview library from this link : https://code.google.com/p/yadview
It loads, lays out and displays events. yadview is intended to be more robust in handling of events from various sources, rendering differently.
It works really good for me!
there is a library that you can use:
https://github.com/roomorama/Caldroid
Embedded as a fragment or shown as dialog
Set min/max date. The date outside min/max range is marked as disabled
Set disabled dates
Select dates fromDate to toDate
Client can listen to various events when user interacts with Calendar
Customize look and feel

I can only suggest how I would have gone for such a calendar. By the UI it is clear that it has to come as a pop-up or to better say a dialog. Now you have to google the opensource calendars if any or just using the calendar API provided by java you can get the calendar for a month year etc. and move it across previous month by normal java function calls.
Now that you have got the data to populate in your calendar. You have to design a custom layout xml create ~30-40 boxes or a grid with dynamic textviews or a webview with <table>, <tr>, <td> the choice is completely yours.
AFAIK
If you can't find anything opensource then I would suggest you should do these things by the suggested approach.
