rrule-to-webex

Converts iCalendar RFC-5545 recurrence rule to Cisco's WebEx XML <repeat> XML sub tree

This module uses RRule.js to process iCalendar RFC RRule strings, therefore it also supports the ability to create <repeat> trees with RRule.js's objects. It's recommended to please go over the documentation to understand some of the differences between iCalendar RFC.

Install

$ npm install --save rrule-to-webex

Usage

const convert = require('rrule-to-webex');
 
const RFCString = "FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=5;UNTIL=20130130T230000Z;BYDAY=MO,FR";
 
convert(RFCString);
// === Output ===
// <repeat>
//    <repeatType>WEEKLY</repeatType>
//    <interval>5</interval>
//    <expirationDate>01/30/2013 17:00:00</expirationDate>
//    <dayInWeek>
//      <day>MONDAY</day>
//      <day>FRIDAY</day>
//    </dayInWeek>
// </repeat>

Supported RFC Reccur Parts

WebEx only supports a subset of the available (RFC iCalendar Recurrence parts](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5545#section-3.3.10), this module attempts to map the available properties as defined in the repeat schema below to their iCalendar counter parts.

Caveats:

• dayInYear is deprecated, thus is not supported by this module
