Getting Resource ID on FullCalendar when dropping external event

Question

I'm using the version of the FullCalendar jQuery plugin that supports Resources.

I'm dragging in external events as per this example .

It all works very well, but I can't find a way to obtain the Resource ID that's associated with the cell (day) onto which the external event has been dropped.

I'm using the drop function below.

drop: function(date, allDay) { 
    // this function is called when something is dropped
    // retrieve the dropped element's stored Event Object
    var originalEventObject = $(this).data('eventObject');

    // we need to copy it, so that multiple events
    // don't have a reference to the same object
    var copiedEventObject = $.extend({}, originalEventObject);

    // assign it the date that was reported
    copiedEventObject.start = date;
    copiedEventObject.allDay = allDay;

    // render the event on the calendar
    // the last `true` argument determines if the event "sticks" 
    // (http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/docs/event_rendering/renderEvent/)
    $('#calendar').fullCalendar('renderEvent', copiedEventObject, true);

    // is the "remove after drop" checkbox checked?
    if ($('#drop-remove').is(':checked')) {
        // if so, remove the element from the "Draggable Events" list
        $(this).remove();
    }
}

I'd be most grateful for any help on this one please.

I also use this fork of FullCalendar and it is possible to obtain Resource ID when you drop an event, like this:

drop: function(date, allDay, test3, test4, resource) {          
    var originalEventObject = $(this).data('eventObject');
    var copiedEventObject = $.extend({}, originalEventObject);
    copiedEventObject.start = date;
    copiedEventObject.allDay = allDay;
    copiedEventObject.resource = resource.id;

    $('#calendar').fullCalendar('renderEvent', copiedEventObject, true);
                
    if ($('#drop-remove').is(':checked')) {
        $(this).remove();
    }
}

So, you should pass the parameter resource to the drop function and you could obtain the resource ID by calling resource.id .
