Events plugin

This plugin allows you to put events in your content via metadata. An iCal file is generated containing all events.

Dependencies

This plugin depends on the icalendar package, which can be installed using APT, DNF/YUM or pip:

pip install icalendar

Settings

You can define settings with the PLUGIN_EVENTS variable:

PLUGIN_EVENTS = {
    'ics_fname': 'calendar.ics',
}

Settings:

  • ics_fname: Where the iCal file is written

Usage

You can use the following metadata in your content:

  • event-start: When the event will start in "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm"
  • event-end: When the event will stop in "YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm"
  • event-duration: The duration of the event [1]
  • event-location: Where the event takes place

[1] To specify the event duration, use a number followed by a time unit:

  • w: weeks
  • d: days
  • h: hours
  • m: minutes
  • s: seconds

Examples

Example in reST format:

:event-start: 2015-01-21 10:30
:event-duration: 2h
:event-location: somewhere

Example in Markdown format:

Event-start: 2015-01-21 10:30
Event-duration: 2h
Event-location: somewhere

Dedicated page

To generate a sorted event list in its own dedicated page:

  • Copy the events_list.html template under the templates directory of your theme
  • Create a page for this list, for example in content/pages/events_list.rst
  • Include the following metadata in your content:
Events list
###########
:slug: events-list
:summary:
:template: events_list
