Long Events that Skip Weekends

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 67

I was looking for a way to render long events that span multiple weeks, but
exclude weekends so I slapped this together. It may be a little to
specialized to my scenario and perhaps not particularly useful to others,
but I figured I'd share my code all the same. I've attached my
fullcalendar.js, but here's just the code I added to the _renderEvents()
function:

    if (seg.event.weekends === false) {
        if (seg.isStart && seg.start.getDay() == 0)
            addDays(seg.start, 1, true);

        if (seg.isStart && seg.start.getDay() == 6)
            continue;

        if (seg.isEnd && seg.end.getDay() == 1)
            continue;
    }
    if (r2l) {
        if (seg.event.weekends === false) {
            left1 = seg.isEnd ?
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((seg.end.getDay() + 5 - weekStart) % 7 * dis +
dit) + ') div.day-content div').position().left :
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((5 - weekStart) % 7 * dis + dit) + ')
div.day-content div').position().left;
            left2 = seg.isStart ?
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((seg.start.getDay() - weekStart + 7) % 7 * dis
+ dit) + ') div.day-content div') :
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((1 - weekStart + 7) % 7 * dis + dit) + ')
div.day-content div');
        } else {
            left1 = seg.isEnd ?
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((seg.end.getDay() + 6 - weekStart) % 7 * dis +
dit) + ') div.day-content div').position().left :
                                tbody.position().left;
            left2 = seg.isStart ?
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((seg.start.getDay() - weekStart + 7) % 7 * dis
+ dit) + ') div.day-content div') :
                                tbody;
        }
        roundW = seg.isEnd;
        roundE = seg.isStart;
    } else {
        if (seg.event.weekends === false) {
            left1 = seg.isStart ?
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((seg.start.getDay() - weekStart + 7) % 7) + ')
div.day-content div').position().left :
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((1 - weekStart + 7) % 7) + ') div.day-content
div').position().left;
            left2 = seg.isEnd ?
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((seg.end.getDay() + 5 - weekStart) % 7) + ')
div.day-content div') :
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((seg.end.getDay() + 5 - weekStart) % 7) + ')
div.day-content div');
        } else {
            left1 = seg.isStart ?
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((seg.start.getDay() - weekStart + 7) % 7) + ')
div.day-content div').position().left :
                                tbody.position().left;
            left2 = seg.isEnd ?
                                tr.find('td:eq(' + ((seg.end.getDay() + 6 - weekStart) % 7) + ')
div.day-content div') :
                                tbody;
        }
        roundW = seg.isStart;
        roundE = seg.isEnd;
    }

To specify that an event should not span weekends simply add weekends:
false to the event definition:

    {
        id: 1,
        title: "Long Event",
        start: new Date(2009, 7, 4, 14, 0),
        end: new Date(2009, 7, 20, 11, 0),
        weekends: false
    }

@adamrshaw: If I'm doing something sloppily in the code, I'd love to know
it. I did the best I could with the information I had available.

My fullcalendar.js also appends an additional CSS class definition for
weekend days. If you add this to fullcalendar.js:

.full-calendar-month td.weekend
{
    background: #FFDFDF;
}

Weekends will be styled accordingly. This is may be a little redundant
considering each day is also given a unique class, but oh well.

if an event is split by a weekend, my knee jerk reaction is to use two separate events to represent it, one before the weekend and one after. but this might be cumbersome for some. i’ll propose a new setting:

eventExclude: 'weekends', [ 0-6 ], [ date ]

this setting will allow skipping of weekends or days-of-week or arbitrary dates.

Over 3 years later, anyone got a solution? Or better, was this implemented?
