NAME

Data::ICal::Entry::Event - Represents an event in an iCalendar file

SYNOPSIS

     my $vevent = Data::ICal::Entry::Event->new();
     $vevent->add_properties(
         summary => "my party",
         description => "I'll cry if I want to",
         # Dat*e*::ICal is not a typo here
         dtstart   => Date::ICal->new( epoch => time )->ical,
     );
 
     $calendar->add_entry($vevent);
 
     $vevent->add_entry($alarm);
 
 

DESCRIPTION

A Data::ICal::Entry::Event object represents a single event in an iCalendar file. (Note that the iCalendar RFC refers to entries as ``components''.) It is a subclass of Data::ICal::Entry and accepts all of its methods.

METHODS

ical_entry_type

Returns "VEVENT", its iCalendar entry name.

optional_unique_properties

According to the iCalendar standard, the following properties may be specified at most one time for an event:
         class  created  description  dtstart  geo 
         last-modified  location  organizer  priority 
         dtstamp  sequence  status  summary  transp 
         uid  url  recurrence-id
 
 

In addition, "dtend" and "duration" may be specified at most once each, but not both in the same entry (though this restriction is not enforced).

optional_repeatable_properties

According to the iCalendar standard, the following properties may be specified any number of times for an event:
         attach  attendee  categories  comment 
         contact  exdate  exrule  request-status  related-to 
         resources  rdate  rrule
 
 

SEE ALSO

Data::ICal::DateTime
For date parsing and formatting, including denoting ``all day'' events, considering using this module. Because it's a ``mix in'', you can still use all the methods here as well as the new date handling methods it defines.
