按时间顺序对日历事件进行排序

Question

I need to convert a large set of ics icalendar events into a LaTeX pgfgantt chart. For this I wrote a tiny script with the help of an answer found here .

from icalendar import Calendar, Event
from datetime import datetime
from pytz import UTC # timezone

g = open('calendar.ics','rb')
gcal = Calendar.from_ical(g.read())
for component in gcal.walk():
    if component.name == "VEVENT":
        start = component.get('dtstart')
        end = component.get('dtend')
        print("\ganttbar{"+ str(component.get('summary')) + "}{" + str(start.dt) + "}{" + str(end.dt) + "}\\\\")
g.close()

The path has to be absolute for some reason.

Let's add the data into pandas and try to sort them according to the start date.

from icalendar import Calendar, Event
from datetime import datetime
from pytz import UTC # timezone
import pandas 

g = open('calendar.ics','rb')
gcal = Calendar.from_ical(g.read())
calevents = pandas.DataFrame(columns=['Event','Start','End',])
for component in gcal.walk():
    if component.name == "VEVENT":
        start = component.get('dtstart')
        end = component.get('dtend')
        calevents.loc[len(calevents)] = [component.get('summary'), start.dt, end.dt] 
g.close()
calevents['Start'] = pandas.to_datetime(calevents['Start'])
calevents = calevents.sort_values(by='Start', ignore_index=True)
for index in range(len(calevents)):
    print("\ganttbar{" + str(calevents.loc[index,"Event"]) + "}{" + str(calevents.loc[index,"Start"]) + "}{" + str(calevents.loc[index,"End"]) + "}\\\\")

Almost there, but the first date now contains a time. Can be removed in the output by removing ' 00:00:00'.
