onBeforeEventChanged

Description

Fires when the event has been changed by drag-n-drop, but the changes aren't saved yet.

onBeforeEventChanged: (ev: object, e: Event, is_new: boolean, original: object) => boolean

Parameters

  • ev - (required) object - the event's data object after changes
  • e - (required) Event - a native event object
  • is_new - (required) boolean - returns 'true' if the user changes a new event; 'false' if the edited event already exists
  • original - (required) object - the event's data object before changes

Returns

  • result - (boolean) - defines whether the default action of the event will be triggered (true) or canceled (false)

Example

scheduler.attachEvent("onBeforeEventChanged", (ev, e, is_new, original) => {
// any custom logic here
return true;
});

Details

The event occurs when a new event is added or an existing one is changed by drag-and-drop.

  • Beware that the first parameter of the handler function takes the data item object, not the data item's id, because newly created data items may not have an ID yet.
  • The unmodified event will be an empty object when creating new data items.
  • The event is blockable: returning false from the handler will prevent the data update.
