<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
class CreateEventsTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('events', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->string('title');
$table->date('start');
$table->date('end');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('events');
}
}
Next, migrate the table using the below command:
php artisan migrate
Next, Navigate to app/Models/Event.php and update the following code into your Event.php model as follow:
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Event extends Model
{
use HasFactory;
protected $fillable = [
];
}
Step 4: Install and Configure Vue Js and vue-full-calendar

php artisan preset vue

routes/web.php
use App\Http\Controllers\EventController;
Route::get('events', [EventController::class, 'index']);
Step 6: Create Controller By Command
Next step, open your command prompt and run the following command to create a controller by an artisan:
php artisan make:controller EventController
After that, go to app\Http\Controllers and open EventController.php file. Then update the following code into your EventController.php file:
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Models\Event;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class EventController extends Controller
{
public function index(Request $request)
{
$events = Event::get(['title','start']);
return response()->json(["events" => $events]);
}
}
Step 7: Create FullCalendar components

Now, update the following code into your FullCalendarComponent.vue components file:
<template>
<div class="container">
<full-calendar :event-sources="eventSources"></full-calendar>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default{
data() {
return {
eventSources: [
{
events(start, end, timezone, callback) {
axios.get('http://localhost:8000/events').then(response => {
callback(response.data.events)
})
},
color: 'yellow',
textColor: 'black',
}
]
}
}
}
</script>
Now open resources/assets/js/app.js and include the FullCalendarComponent.vue component as follow:
require('./bootstrap');
import 'fullcalendar/dist/fullcalendar.css';
window.Vue = require('vue');
import FullCalendar from 'vue-full-calendar'; //Import Full-calendar
Vue.use(FullCalendar);
Vue.component('fullcalendar-component', require('./components/FullCalendarComponent.vue').default);
const app = new Vue({
el: '#app',
});
Step 8: Create Blade Views And Import FullCalendar components

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

<body>
<div id="app">
<main class="py-4">
@yield('content')
</main>
</div>
</body>
</html>

<div class="card-body">
<fullcalendar-component></fullcalendar-component>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
@endsection
