Feature Request - Start Date and End Date interval

[jhonattanS]

Hi, first of all, thanks for the package!

I was wondering if it's possible to implement a 'Start date' and 'End Date' Interval for the construction of the heatmap.
I want to be able to show the user the heat map only between the selected data range.

Thanks

I was looking for something similar, I wanted the heat map to go forward starting a few weeks before today and show future events. I know it's not recommended to edit plugin code as it gets overwritten when there are updates, but it solved my need.

I changed the the function getCalendarDates as follows in file week_columns.dart

original function

  List<DateTime> getCalendarDates(int columnsAmount) {
    
    DateTime firstDayOfTheWeek = TimeUtils.firstDayOfTheWeek(date);
    DateTime firstDayOfCalendar = TimeUtils.firstDayOfCalendar(firstDayOfTheWeek, columnsAmount);
    return TimeUtils.datesBetween(firstDayOfCalendar, date);
  }

new function

  List<DateTime> getCalendarDates(int columnsAmount) {

    DateTime today = DateTime.now();
    DateTime firstDayOfTheWeek = TimeUtils.firstDayOfTheWeek(today).subtract(Duration(days:28) );
    DateTime firstDayOfCalendar = firstDayOfTheWeek; 
    DateTime lastDayofCalendar = today.add(Duration(days: (DateTime.daysPerWeek * (columnsAmount - 1))));
    return TimeUtils.datesBetween(firstDayOfCalendar,lastDayofCalendar);
  }

It would be great if this or something similar can be added to the plugin
