[Personal application work memo] Make a calendar with simple_calendar

The calendar was set up.

I want to add the information of the posts table here.

https://github.com/excid3/simple_calendar Will you proceed with reference to the official page?

ruby:app/views/calendars/index.html.haml

.calendar
  = month_calendar events: @posts do |date, meeting|
    = date
  - posts.each do |post|
    = post.calorie

app/controllers/posts_controllers

class CalendarsController < ApplicationController
  def index
    @posts = Post.where(user_id: current_user.id)
  end
end

I couldn't display it.

How can I display the data in the posts table?

hypothesis

Hypothesis 1: Prepare a start_time column in the posts table. Hypothesis 2: Allow the start_time column in the posts_controller's strong parameter permit. Hypothesis 3: Since the start_time column needs to contain some value, put the default value in the start_time column.

This solved it

posts_controller.rb

@post = Post.new(post_params)
 #Get today's date(simple_For calendar)
@post[:start_time] = Date.today.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')

Now I get today's date and put it in the start_time column of posts_table automatically. By the way, the form for posting does not have a form for entering start_time.

In other words, you don't have to fill out the form When you post, the date of posting is automatically entered in the start_time column.

If there is no value in this red frame part Not displayed as an event.

Now that the start_time has a date and time value, I was able to successfully display the event in simple_calendar.
