Create The table using the below command.
php artisan make:migration create_bookings_table --create=bookings
After complete migration. we need below changes in the database/migrations/create_bookings_table file.

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
class CreateBookingsTable extends Migration
{
/**

*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('bookings', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->string('title');
$table->date('start');
$table->date('end');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**

*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('bookings');
}
}
?>

'providers' => [ .... MaddHatter\LaravelFullcalendar\ServiceProvider::class, ], 'aliases' => [ .... 'Calendar' => MaddHatter\LaravelFullcalendar\Facades\Calendar::class, ]
Step 6: Create Route
Add the following route code in the “routes/web.php” file.
<?php
use App\Http\Controllers\FullCalendarController;
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/
Route::get('/', function () {
return view('welcome');
});
Route::get('/booking',[FullCalendarController::class, 'index']);
?>
Step 7: Create a Model and Controller
Here below command help to create the controller and model.
php artisan make:controller FullCalendarController php artisan make:model Booking
Booking.php
<?php
namespace App/Models;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class Booking extends Model
{
use HasFactory;
protected $fillable = ['title','start','end'];
}
?>
FullCalendarController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\Booking;
use Redirect,Response;
class FullCalendarController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
$events = [];
$data = Booking::all();
if($data->count()){
foreach ($data as $key => $value) {
$events[] = Calendar::event(
$value->title,
true,
new \DateTime($value->start),
new \DateTime($value->end.' +1 day')
);
}
}
$calendar = Calendar::addEvents($events);
return view('fullcalendar', compact('calendar'));
}
}
?>
Step 8: Create Blade Files
Finally, We will create a fullcalendar.blade.php file in the “resources/views/” folder directory and paste the below code.
fullcalendar.blade.php
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/moment.js/2.9.0/moment.min.js"></script>

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/fullcalendar/2.2.7/fullcalendar.min.css"/>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="panel panel-primary">
<div class="panel-heading">
MY Calender
</div>
<div class="panel-body" >
{!! $calendar->calendar() !!}
{!! $calendar->script() !!}
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Step 9: Run Our Laravel Application
We can start the server and run this example using the below command.
php artisan serve
Now we will run our example using the below Url in the browser.
http://127.0.0.1:8000/booking
