FreeBusyRange Property

Contains the date/time range when the calendar owner is busy.

Syntax

 caldav.getFreeBusyRange(index, [callback])

Default Value

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getFreeBusyRange([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setFreeBusyRange([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

Contains the date/time range when the calendar owner is busy. The format for this property is either "DATETIME/DATETIME" or "DATETIME/DURATION"

The date/time format is "YYYYMMDDThhmmss", where "T" indicates the break between date and time. You may also append a 1-character alpha code for the timezone. For instance, "20100104T123456Z" indicates January 4th, 2010 at 12:34:56 PM UTC.

Durations are represented by the format P<date>T<time>. The date component may contain a number of days or weeks (but not months or years), and the time component may consist of hours, minutes, and seconds. These are represented by an integer value followed by a letter representing the units, as specified by the table below:


P	is the duration designator (historically called "period") placed at the start of the duration representation.
W	is the week designator that follows the value for the number of weeks.
D	is the day designator that follows the value for the number of days.
T	is the time designator that precedes the time components of the representation.
H	is the hour designator that follows the value for the number of hours.
M	is the minute designator that follows the value for the number of minutes.
S	is the second designator that follows the value for the number of seconds.

For example, "P4DT12H30M5S" represents a duration of four days, twelve hours, thirty minutes, and five seconds. Unused date/time designators may be left out completely. (A five-minute duration may be represented as simply "PT5M"). Also note that "PT36H" and "P1DT12H" represent the same duration.

This format is based on ISO-8601, but unlike the ISO specification this duration property does not support durations measured in years or months.

The index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the FreeBusyCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.
