express-calendar

Zero-dependency express middleware for Google Calendar

This is meant to be a read-only proxy for the events of a publicly accessible Google Calendar. Currently, only API key access is supported. OAuth support is not planned.

Usage

npm install express-calendar --save

var express = require('express')
var expressCalendar = require('express-calendar')
 
var options = {
  calendarId: '<put your calendar ID here>@group.calendar.google.com',
  parameters: {
    key: '<put your API key here>'
  }
}
 
var app = express()
expressCalendar(app, options)
