Get a Google Calendar

See more Google Calendar Examples

Demonstrates how to get a particular Google Calendar. The calendar can be referenced by the calendar ID, or by the keyword "primary". Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
# Google Calendar scope.

# In this example, Get Google Calendar OAuth2 Access Token, the access
# token was saved to a JSON file.  This example fetches the access token from the file..
jsonToken = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
success = jsonToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/googleCalendar.json")
if (jsonToken.HasMember("access_token") == false)
    print "No access token found." + "\n";
    exit
end

http = Chilkat::CkHttp.new()
http.put_AuthToken(jsonToken.stringOf("access_token"))

# Let's get the primary calendar.
jsonResponse = http.quickGetStr("https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/users/me/calendarList/primary")
if (http.get_LastMethodSuccess() != true)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

print jsonResponse + "\n";

# A sample response is:

# {
#  "kind": "calendar#calendarListEntry",
#  "etag": "\"1465249947472000\"",
#  "id": "support@chilkatcloud.com",
#  "summary": "support@chilkatcloud.com",
#  "timeZone": "America/Chicago",
#  "colorId": "14",
#  "backgroundColor": "#9fe1e7",
#  "foregroundColor": "#000000",
#  "selected": true,
#  "accessRole": "owner",
#  "defaultReminders": [
#   {
#    "method": "popup",
#    "minutes": 10
#   }
#  ],
#  "notificationSettings": {
#   "notifications": [
#    {
#     "type": "eventCreation",
#     "method": "email"

#    {
#     "type": "eventResponse",
#     "method": "email"
#    }
#   ]
#  },
#  "primary": true
# }

# It can be parsed like this:
json = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
json.Load(jsonResponse)

print "kind: " + json.stringOf("kind") + "\n";
print "id: " + json.stringOf("id") + "\n";

# Examine the notification settings, if any..
numSettings = json.SizeOfArray("notificationSettings.notifications")
if (numSettings > 0)
    i = 0
    while i < numSettings
        json.put_I(i)
        print "Notification Type: " + json.stringOf("notificationSettings.notifications[i].type") + "\n";
        print "Notification Method: " + json.stringOf("notificationSettings.notifications[i].method") + "\n";
        i = i + 1
    end
