The Monthly Calendar supports automatic event reloading (in specified intervals).

AutoRefresh is disabled by default. You can enable it using autoRefreshEnabled property.

Configuration properties:

  • autoRefreshEnabled (bool)
  • autoRefreshInterval (int) - number of seconds between automatic reloads
  • autoRefreshMaxCount(int) - maximum number of automatic reloads
  • autoRefreshCommand(string) - a command value that will be passed to Command event when requesting a reload

JavaScript

If enabled using autoRefreshEnabled property, it will fire onAutoRefresh event in the specified intervals.

dp.autoRefreshInterval = 10; 
dp.autoRefreshMaxCount = 10;
dp.autoRefreshEnabled = true;

dp.onAutoRefresh = function(args) { 
  dp.events.load("/getEvents"); 
};

JavaScript

AutoRefresh is not available for DayPilot Pro for JavaScript.

ASP.NET WebForms

If enabled, AutoRefresh will fire Command event on the server side with the value of AutoRefreshCommand as the command name.
