cannot create all day event

[rodrigoesborges]

I tried to create all day event, which , as per this info , for example, should have DTSTART and DTEND values as VALUE=DATE:YYYYmmdd

I couldn't generate the events with proper values for DTSTART and END

I tried also to modify by hand the results, before writing to ics. But then write.ics() failed

Hi @rodrigoesborges

library(calendar)
s <- lubridate::ymd_h("2019-05-07 00")
ic <- ic_event(start_time = s, end_time = 0)
class(ic)
#> [1] "ical"       "tbl_df"     "tbl"        "data.frame"
if(is(ic, "ical")) {
  ic_write(ic, "github.ics")
  readLines("github.ics")
}
#>  [1] "BEGIN:VCALENDAR"

Am I missing something? Did you miss some date syntax? Let us know.

Any update on this @rodrigoesborges? There is some work to be done on this package for sure so any input welcome.

[rodrigoesborges]

Sorry for the late response, and for opening the issue. I had probably some error on my previous handling of date formats. @layik code adapted to my tests worked flawlessly.

No problem, thanks for follow-up.
