Hello,
I have an array:
$lessons = Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[res] => 45
[start] => 2021-07-14 16:00:00
[end] => 2021-07-14 16:45:00
[start_int] => 1626292800
[end_int] => 1626295500
[tdur_slot] => 18
)
[1] => Array
(
[res] => 45
[start] => 2021-07-14 16:45:00
[end] => 2021-07-14 17:30:00
[start_int] => 1626295500
[end_int] => 1626298200
[tdur_slot] => 18
)
[2] => Array
(
[res] => 45
[start] => 2021-07-14 17:30:00
[end] => 2021-07-14 18:30:00
[start_int] => 1626298200
[end_int] => 1626301800
[tdur_slot] => 24
)
[3] => Array
(
[res] => 9
[start] => 2021-07-14 10:00:00
[end] => 2021-07-14 10:45:00
[start_int] => 1626271200
[end_int] => 1626273900
[tdur_slot] => 18
)
)
I am trying to compile two functions to help with scheduling lessons (conflicts and checking for valid availability).
function check_for_overlap($array, $resource, $sourceStart, $sourceEnd, $KeyResource, $tKeyStart, $tKeyEnd){
I want check for a basic overlap in $array for that resource -
$resource = $KeyResource
$sourceStart < $tKeyEnd && $sourceEnd > $tKeyStart
if overlap return TRUE else FALSE
}
example using above array:
$result = function check_for_overlap($lessons, 9, 1626271200, 1626273900, ‘res’, 'start_int', 'end_int’)
$result would be TRUE
--------
function valid_availability($array, $resource, $sourceStart, $sourceEnd, $KeyResource, $tKeyStart, $tKeyEnd){
loop every 5 minute interval between $sourceStart and $sourceEnd for that resource, check for an valid overlap
each 5 minute interval
$resource = $KeyResource
$sourceStart < $tKeyEnd && $sourceEnd > $tKeyStart
if any intervals test are FALSE exit and return FALSE else TRUE
}
example using above array:
$result = function valid_availability($lessons, 45, 1626273900, 1626292800, ‘res’, 'start_int', 'end_int’)
$result would be FALSE
I’d appreciate any assistance on this. Thanks ;-)
Don
