How to configure

Property	Description
- date - type: Date or string - default: new Date()	The date (month) at which the calendar will open.
- translations - type: RocTranslation - default: null (uses Locale)	Translations for the Calendar. (see locale as well). You can pass an object defining the translations (names for Months and Week Days) and the buttons
- controls - type: RocControls or false (accepts HTML) - default: { prev: <, next: > }	If you don't pass button definitions, only prev and next will be visible. If you pass as well { ... today: '.' } a third button will be shown. Passing false will hide all controls.
- locale - type: RocLocale - default: ['default', 'short', 'long']	If you don't want to pass translations or reuse the ones you have, you can let Javascript use its locale library for the translations. default will use the system language, otherwise pass a locale like nl-NL or en-GB. The second and third parameters are the desired format for Days ('Monday' vs 'Mon') and Months ('December' vs 'Dec').
- disabled - type: boolean - default: true	Set to true to disable hover and click. Combined with buttons: false it's just an overlay which cannot be interacted with.
- highlightToday - type: boolean - default: true	If true, a class .today will be added to the calendar coinciding with the [date] parameter passed to the component.
- specials - type: RocSpecials - default: {}	Give a date or list of dates that you want to highlight on your calendar. These "specials" allow you to add classes to that particular day, a title="" on hover or set your custom data which is returned in the (dayClick) event. Any data is valid.
- weeksStartsOn - type: RocWeekStartsOn - default: Monday	The day the week starts with. Everything gets calculated automatically.
- dayClick (event) - type: RocDayClickEvent	When the calendar is disabled = false and a date gets clicked, it will emit an event.

More Q&A

Q: Why another calendar? There are thousands
A: They all are trying to do everything. ROC (which stands for Read-Only Calendar) does exactly what it says: It's mostly read-only.

Q: Why a component?
A: Angular Datepicker and other components are more than a user needs 90% of the cases. If all you need to do is pick a date, see the month, etc., this is exactly what you need.

Q: Readonly... can I use it as a Datepicker?
A: Yes! Set [disabled]="false" and you listen to the (dayClick) event.

Q: Can I use it in my language?
A: Yes! See Localisation below.

Q: Your calendar looks very ugly.
A: I did not want to add styles that you would have to overwrite, increasing package size. I encourage you to use your own CSS/Styles, or import the themes/basic.scss or themes/basic.css to have a quick ("ok") version.

Q: How do you open and close it?
A: It's always open. Hide it with display: none or *ngIf="false". No more settings available.
