end_date
Description
Sets the end value of the time scale
end_date: Date | undefined
Example
gantt.config.start_date = new Date(2018, 08, 10);
gantt.config.end_date = new Date(2018, 08, 20);
gantt.init("gantt_here");
Details
note
To apply the end_date option, you must use it in pair with the start_date one.
- If both the start_date and end_date options are specified and you create a task that is outside the range, the task won't be displayed in the chart.
- Optional parameters of the init method can be used as initial values of the start_date and end_date configs.
- start_date and end_date overwrite fit_tasks. If you want to use these settings together, you'll need to manage the time scale from code.
In this case we can extend the range:
gantt.attachEvent("onLightboxSave", function(id, task, is_new){
const taskStart = task.start_date;
const taskEnd = task.end_date;
const scaleStart = gantt.config.start_date;
const scaleEnd = gantt.config.end_date;
// if the task is out of the range
if(scaleStart > taskEnd || scaleEnd taskEnd || scaleEnd < taskStart ){
gantt.message({
type:"warning",
text:"Warning! The task is outside the date range!",
expire:5000
});
return false;
}
return true;
});
