CalendarContract

public final class CalendarContract
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	android.provider.CalendarContract

The contract between the calendar provider and applications. Contains definitions for the supported URIs and data columns.

Overview

CalendarContract defines the data model of calendar and event related information. This data is stored in a number of tables:

The CalendarContract.Calendars table holds the calendar specific information. Each row in this table contains the details for a single calendar, such as the name, color, sync info, etc.
The CalendarContract.Events table holds the event specific information. Each row in this table has the info for a single event. It contains information such as event title, location, start time, end time, etc. The event can occur one-time or can recur multiple times. Attendees, reminders, and extended properties are stored on separate tables and reference the _ID to link them with the event.
The CalendarContract.Instances table holds the start and end time for occurrences of an event. Each row in this table represents a single occurrence. For one-time events there will be a 1:1 mapping of instances to events. For recurring events, multiple rows will automatically be generated which correspond to multiple occurrences of that event.
The CalendarContract.Attendees table holds the event attendee or guest information. Each row represents a single guest of an event. It specifies the type of guest they are and their attendance response for the event.
The CalendarContract.Reminders table holds the alert/notification data. Each row represents a single alert for an event. An event can have multiple reminders. The number of reminders per event is specified in MAX_REMINDERS which is set by the Sync Adapter that owns the given calendar. Reminders are specified in minutes before the event and have a type.
The CalendarContract.ExtendedProperties table holds opaque data fields used by the sync adapter. The provider takes no action with items in this table except to delete them when their related events are deleted.

Other tables include:

CalendarContract.SyncState, which contains free-form data maintained by the sync adapters

Inherited methods

From class java.lang.Object

`Object`	`clone()` Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)` Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`void`	`finalize()` Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()` Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for the object.
`final void`	`notify()` Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()` Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()` Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait(long millis, int nanos)` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long millis)` Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait()` Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the `notify()` method or the `notifyAll()` method for this object.

Constants

ACCOUNT_TYPE_LOCAL

Added in API level 14

String ACCOUNT_TYPE_LOCAL

A special account type for calendars not associated with any account. Normally calendars that do not match an account on the device will be removed. Setting the account_type on a calendar to this will prevent it from being wiped if it does not match an existing account.

See also:

ACCOUNT_TYPE

Constant Value: "LOCAL"

ACTION_EVENT_REMINDER

Added in API level 14

String ACTION_EVENT_REMINDER

Broadcast Action: This is the intent that gets fired when an alarm notification needs to be posted for a reminder.

Constant Value: "android.intent.action.EVENT_REMINDER"

ACTION_HANDLE_CUSTOM_EVENT

Added in API level 16

String ACTION_HANDLE_CUSTOM_EVENT

Activity Action: Display the event to the user in the custom app as specified in CUSTOM_APP_PACKAGE. The custom app will be started via startActivityForResult(Intent, int) and it should call setResult(int) with RESULT_OK or RESULT_CANCELED to acknowledge whether the action was handled or not. The custom app should have an intent filter like the following:

 <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.provider.calendar.action.HANDLE_CUSTOM_EVENT" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    <data android:mimeType="vnd.android.cursor.item/event" />
 </intent-filter>

Input: getData() has the event URI. The extra EXTRA_EVENT_BEGIN_TIME has the start time of the instance. The extra EXTRA_CUSTOM_APP_URI will have the CUSTOM_APP_URI.

Output: RESULT_OK if this was handled; otherwise RESULT_CANCELED.

Constant Value: "android.provider.calendar.action.HANDLE_CUSTOM_EVENT"

AUTHORITY

Added in API level 14

String AUTHORITY

This authority is used for writing to or querying from the calendar provider. Note: This is set at first run and cannot be changed without breaking apps that access the provider.

Constant Value: "com.android.calendar"

CALLER_IS_SYNCADAPTER

Added in API level 14

String CALLER_IS_SYNCADAPTER

An optional insert, update or delete URI parameter that allows the caller to specify that it is a sync adapter. The default value is false. If set to true, the modified row is not marked as "dirty" (needs to be synced) and when the provider calls notifyChange(android.net.Uri, android.database.ContentObserver, boolean) , the third parameter "syncToNetwork" is set to false. Furthermore, if set to true, the caller must also include ACCOUNT_NAME and ACCOUNT_TYPE as query parameters.

appendQueryParameter(java.lang.String, java.lang.String)

Constant Value: "caller_is_syncadapter"

EXTRA_CUSTOM_APP_URI

Added in API level 16
