Quick Start

To get started you need to have an object that can be rendered as a item on a calendar. Then you need to add the GridFieldCalendarView component to your GridField's config. For example:, _(*4)

$myGridField=new GridField('Events', 'Events', $this->Events(), GridFieldConfig_RecordEditor::create(10));
$myGridField->getConfig()->addComponent(new GridFieldCalendarView(
        'StartDateTimeField', //This must be the name of the field in the model not a getter method
        'EndDateTimeField'
    ));

There are more options available, when adding the component for information on these see the documentation for more information., _(*5)
