谷歌日历api v3 calendar.events.list并在javascript中使用timeMax，timeMin

Question

var resource = {
    ///  "kind": "calendar#event",

    "alwaysIncludeEmail" : "true",
    "singleEvents" : "true",
    "orderBy" : "startTime",
    "timeMax": {
        "dateTime": "2013-10-01T00:00:00+10:00" //maxDate.toISOString()
    },
    "timeMin": {
        "dateTime":  "2013-08-29T00:00:00+10:00" //startDateMin.toISOString()
    }
};

var calendar_id = new calendarIds();

var request = gapi.client.calendar.events.list({
    'calendarId': calendar_id.source,
    'resource': resource
});

....

request.execute(function(resp){

this javascript is returning ALL events in the calendar !!!!!

plugging those time values into v3 api explorer and the correct time range of events return.

so how the freak to get my javascript to do the same ? i tried heaps of permutations, whys it so freaking hard this google api stuff.......

need a working example please

Answer 1

if the request is rewritten as

 var request = gapi.client.calendar.events.list({
      'calendarId': calendar_id,
      "singleEvents" : true,
      "orderBy" : "startTime",
      "timeMin":  startDate.toISOString(),
      "timeMax":  maxDate.toISOString()
    });

  request.execute(function(resp){

it now works!

there is some confusion with that "resource" parameter. Obviously i saw an example that worked using the insert() api. But that is the Events resource as documented for insert().

When using Google Script, with API v2 and v3, you can write:

var calendar_id = CalendarApp.getCalendarById('My Test Calendar')[0];
var start_date = new Date();
var query = Calendar.Events.list(calendar_id, {timeMin: start_date.toISOString()});
var events = query.items;

Tricks in the Calendar.Events.list call is that the first parameter is the calendar id, the second is an object. When passing dates, need to use x.toISOString() .
