Limit the number of events created per day in fullcalendar

I am working with fullcalendar. I want to limit the number of events created per day to 4 in week's view.
I have seen this link but it is not of much help
stackoverflow question
eventLimit options only limits the events displayed but I want to stop creating events once 6 events have been created per day in week's view.

Try this.
select: function( start, end, jsEvent, view) {
var eventCounter = 0;
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('clientEvents', function(event) {
if (start.format('YYYY-MM-DD') == event.start.format('YYYY-MM-DD')) {
eventCounter++;
}
});
if (eventCounter < 6) {
// Code to create event
}
}
This works for me locally.

Okay after digging deep and learning more about fullcalender, here is how i did it. it was very easy i must say. `
var event_count=0;// to count the number of events starting from zero
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
defaultDate: '2016-01-12',
editable: true,
selectable: true,
minTime: '09:00:00',
maxTime: '18:00:00',
columnFormat: 'dddd',
eventLimit: true,
select: function(start, end) {
var eventData = {
start: start,
end: end
};
event_count+=1;//if the control is inside this function increment eventcount
if(event_count<4){
//if the counter is less than four then do this
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('renderEvent', eventData, true); // stick? = true
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('unselect');
}
},
eventClick: function(event){
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('removeEvents',event._id);
event_count-=event_count;//decrement event_count when event is removed
},
loading: function(bool) {
$('#loading').toggle(bool);
}
});
$('#view_calendar').on('shown.bs.modal', function () {
$("#calendar").fullCalendar('render');
});
})
`

Add event to every day if the day is empty

To better understand my question, take a look at the JSFiddle Example.
Basically there are tree kinds of unique items on the calendar that are all day events: Today, Completed, and Incomplete days. I need to figure a way to populate days that don't have anything on them (Today, or Incomplete), in this case they would be populated with "Completed". How can I figure out what these days are?
Also any way to limit the calendar to a set months range? For instance Quarter 1 would be Dec 1st to Mar 31st.
//Calendar
$(document).ready(function() {
// Figure out todays date and provide link to enter data
var date = new Date();
var d = date.getDate();
var m = date.getMonth();
var y = date.getFullYear();
// Staff Data Calendar
$('#calendar-staff').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: '',
center: 'title',
},
businessHours: true, // display business hours
handleWindowResize: true, // responsive layout
editable: false,
events: [
// red areas where no events can be dropped
{
title: 'No Data',
start: '2015-02-03',
url: '#',
color: '#E64C65'
},
{
title: 'No Data',
start: '2015-02-17',
url: '#',
color: '#E64C65'
},
{
// Display Today
title: 'Enter Data for Today',
url: 'staffing_data_edit.html',
color: '#5E9EF3',
start: new Date(y, m, d)
}
]
});
});

You can use and apply a custom check on a event dayRender Click here for reference
Or you can use event eventAfterAllRender which call after the calendar is ready to draw. you can use a loop and check the empty days.
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
defaultDate: '2018-10-25',
navLinks: true, // can click day/week names to navigate views
selectable: false,
selectHelper: true,
select: function(start, end) {
},
dayRender: function(date, cell )
{
console.log(date);
console.log(cell);
},
eventRender: function(event, element, view) {
},
eventAfterAllRender: function(view)
{
if (view.name == "month") {
var allEvents = $('#calendar').fullCalendar('clientEvents');
for (var index in allEvents) {
var event = allEvents[index];
}
}
},
eventClick: function(event) {
return false;
},
loading: function(bool) {
//$('#loading').toggle(bool);
},
timezone: true,
editable: false,
eventLimit: true, // allow "more" link when too many events
eventLimitTex: 'More shifts',
events: eventsJson
});

Backbonejs fullcalendar v2 load events from localstorage

How can I load data from local-storage to new version of fullcalendar through backbone collection?
My localstorage data:
if(localStorage.getItem('events') == null){
var events = [
{"title":"Event 1","start":"2014-09-13T04:00:00.000Z","end":"0000-00-00 00:00:00","creator":432,"backgroundColor":"rgb(190, 219, 5","allDay":"true"},
{"title":"Event 2","start":"2014-09-28T11:30:00.000Z","end":"2014-09-28T19:30:00.000Z","creator":432,"backgroundColor":"rgb(190, 219, 5","allDay":""},
{"title":"Event 3","start":"2014-09-09T04:00:00.000Z","end":"2014-09-11T04:00:00.000Z","creator":432,"backgroundColor":"rgb(31, 138, 11","allDay":"true"}
];
localStorage.setItem('events',JSON.stringify(events));
}
Here is my view :
define([
'underscore',
'backbone',
'models/event/Event',
'collections/events/Events',
'text!templates/calendar/calendarTemplate.html',
'momentjs',
'fullcalendar',
], function(_, Backbone, Event, Events, calendarTemplate, fullcalendar
){
var EventsView = Backbone.View.extend({
el: document.getElementById("content"),
render: function() {
var self = this;
var events = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('events'));
var events = new Events(events);
var jsevents = events.toJSON();
this.el.innerHTML = _.template( calendarTemplate,{data : jsevents} );
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
agenda: 'h:mm{ - h:mm}',
'': 'h(:mm)t',
aspectRatio: 1.5,
droppable: true,
weekend: true,
editable: true,
defaultView: 'month',
firstDay: 1,
handleWindowResize: true,
allDayDefault: false,
firstHour: 7,
columnFormat: {
month: 'dddd',
week: 'ddd, dS',
day: 'dddd, MMM dS'
},
header: {
right: 'prev,next',
center: 'title',
left: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
selectable: true,
selectHelper: true,
select: function(start, end) {
var title = prompt('Event Title:');
var eventData;
if (title) {
eventData = {
title: title,
start: start,
end: end
};
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('renderEvent', eventData, true);
}
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('unselect');
},
events: []
});
$('#calendar').fullCalendar( 'addEventSource', jsevents );
},
});
return EventsView;
});
You can see my data for calendar are jsevents. So how can I load it into my fullcalendar? App on GIT Thanks for any help
UPDATED:
define([
'underscore',
'backbone',
'models/event/Event',
'collections/events/Events',
'text!templates/calendar/calendarTemplate.html',
'momentjs',
'fullcalendar',
], function(_, Backbone, Event, Events, calendarTemplate, fullcalendar
){
var EventsView = Backbone.View.extend({
el: document.getElementById("content"),
render: function() {
var self = this;
var events = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('events'));
var events = new Events(events);
var jsevents = events.toJSON();
this.el.innerHTML = _.template( calendarTemplate,{data : jsevents} );
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
agenda: 'h:mm{ - h:mm}',
'': 'h(:mm)t',
aspectRatio: 1.5,
droppable: true,
weekend: true,
editable: true,
defaultView: 'month',
firstDay: 1,
handleWindowResize: true,
allDayDefault: false,
firstHour: 7,
columnFormat: {
month: 'dddd',
week: 'ddd, dS',
day: 'dddd, MMM dS'
},
header: {
right: 'prev,next',
center: 'title',
left: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
selectable: true,
selectHelper: true,
select: function(start, end) {
var title = prompt('Event Title:');
var eventData;
if (title) {
eventData = {
title: title,
start: start,
end: end
};
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('renderEvent', eventData, true);
events.push(eventData);
localStorage.setItem('events',JSON.stringify(events));
}
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('unselect');
},
events: function(start, end, timezone, callback) {
callback(jsevents);
}
});
$('#calendar').fullCalendar( 'addEventSource', jsevents );
},
});
return EventsView;
});

Don't know if this is the only problem but:
.start and .end need to be strings formatted like this: "2010-01-09T12:30:00"
See here http://fullcalendar.io/docs/event_data/events_array/
You can use moments for this (included in fullcalendar anyway)
moment.unix(Number)
moment.toISOString() // 2013-02-04T22:44:30.652Z
or using format if timezone isn't accepted
http://momentjs.com/docs/#/displaying/format/
Note that you can also use a function as source (which allows for lazy fetching)

Full calender - Remove Events on day click and remove Bg-color of particular cell

I need to limit the events to one in a particular date, and on click of date if any events are present, it has to be removed.
While adding an event to a date, the color of the cell should be turned orange, and while deleting the event, it has to be turned back to white.
$(function () {
// Full calendar
var date = new Date();
var d = date.getDate();
var m = date.getMonth();
var y = date.getFullYear();
var calendar = $('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
selectable: true,
selectHelper: true,
select: function(start, end, allDay) {
var title = prompt('Event Title:');
if (title) {
calendar.fullCalendar('renderEvent',
{
title: title,
start: start,
end: end,
backgroundColor: 'orange',
allDay: allDay,
},
true
);
}
calendar.fullCalendar('unselect');
},
eventClick: function(event){
var r=confirm(\"Are you sure?\");
if (r==true)
{
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('removeEvents',event._id);
}
},
dayClick: function(date, allDay, jsEvent, view) {
if($( this ).hasClass('bg-orange')){
$(this).removeClass('bg-orange');
}
else
{
$(this).addClass('bg-orange');
}
},
editable: true,
events: [
]
});
});

connect to database data in fullcalendar

I've see the calendar code on arshaw/fullcalendar. And I've changed a little code, but I still don't know how to connect javascript into database..
Here's the original code
$(document).ready(function() {
var date = new Date();
var d = date.getDate();
var m = date.getMonth();
var y = date.getFullYear();
var calendar = $('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: 'prev,next today',center: 'title',right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
selectable: true,
selectHelper: true,
select: function(start, end, allDay) {
var title = prompt('Event Title:');
if (title) {
calendar.fullCalendar('renderEvent',
{
title: title,
start: start,
end: end,
allDay: allDay
},
true // make the event "stick"
);
}
calendar.fullCalendar('unselect');
},
editable: true,
});
});
And this I changed a bit
$(document).ready(function()
{
var date = new Date();
var d = date.getDate();
var m = date.getMonth();
var y = date.getFullYear();
var calendar = $('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
selectable: true,
selectHelper: true,
select: function(start, end, allDay) {
newwindow=window.open('2.php','name','height=400,width=300');
if (window.focus) {newwindow.focus()}
if (title) {
calendar.fullCalendar('renderEvent',
{
title: title,
start: start,
end: end,
allDay: allDay
},
true // make the event "stick"
);
}
calendar.fullCalendar('unselect');
},
editable: true,
});
});
Where can I put the connection script ?
Need advise..
Thanks,

You cannot establish a connection directly from javascript to use in full calendar
You have to do this
Create a Servlet/Action Class/ C# Class (whatever we based Controller class);
Connect to database from the Controller
Write the response data as a JSON String
IN the full calendar, add this attribute
events: "servletURL",
When the calendar loads, the events attribute will call the servletURL, using ajax and retrieve the response text to display it in the Calendar
