Requirements

• PHP >= 7.1
• Laravel application with Laravel Nova installed

Installation

Install the package via composer:

composer require czemu/nova-calendar-tool

Publish the migration:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Czemu\NovaCalendarTool\ToolServiceProvider' --tag="migrations"

Run the migration:

php artisan migrate

Publish the config (optional):

php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Czemu\NovaCalendarTool\ToolServiceProvider' --tag="config"

Register the tool in the tools method of the NovaServiceProvider:

// app/Providers/NovaServiceProvider.php

// ...

public function tools()
{
    return [
        // ...
        new \Czemu\NovaCalendarTool\NovaCalendarTool,
    ];
}

Google Calendar Integration

This step is optional. If you want to synchronize your events with Google Calendar you have to publish the configuration file from spatie/laravel-google-calendar package:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\GoogleCalendar\GoogleCalendarServiceProvider"

This will create the config/google-calendar.php file with the following content:

<?php

return [

    /*
     * Path to the json file containing the credentials.
     */
    'service_account_credentials_json' => storage_path('app/google-calendar/service-account-credentials.json'),

    /*
     *  The id of the Google Calendar that will be used by default.
     */
    'calendar_id' => env('GOOGLE_CALENDAR_ID'),
];

So next, you have to insert GOOGLE_CALENDAR_ID=your_id into the .env file (it's in the Google Calendar settings page) and the account credentials into the storage/app/google-calendar/service-account-credentials.json file (you can obtain it from Google API Console). Both of these things are explained here.
