How display public google calendar in android app?

Question

Is there some library that permits to display a public google calendar in android app?

Answer 1

Get the data

You can download public calendars as XML/JSON feed.

Example:

https://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/en.usa%23holiday%40group.v.calendar.google.com/public/full?alt=json

• Remove the "alt=json" parameter to get an ATOM (XML) feed
• You can find your public calendar id in your calendar settings
• Description of possible parameters: https://developers.google.com/gdata/samples/cal_sample

Use Gson or json-simple or any other JSON library to parse the feed.

Display it

You can either implement your own calendar view or use a third party implementation. Google these (Sorry, I'm new to StackOverflow and not allowed to post all the links yet):

• Extended Calendar View
• Caldroid
• android-calendar-view
• Create your own calendar view

Hope this helps you.
