Fullcalendar 4, when using eventRender i get error Failure parsing JSON

I am using FullCalendar 4 and i have setup the Calendar Object in my script
function createBookingCalendar() {
var calendarEl = document.getElementById('bookingCalendar');
let calendar = new FullCalendar.Calendar(calendarEl, {

When i have eventRender setup in the code the calendar stops fetching events from my source and it shows the eventSources>failure dialog that i added in the function.
When i remove the eventRender part of the script the calendar object renders perfectly and I am able to see all the events from my database.
Could anybody point out where I am going wrong with the coding?
would really like to get the eventRender part working so i can change the background color of events that are set, also in addition, how would i add in events of my own after the source has fetched the events from the server? I want to do this so I can fill in time slots that are missing in the calendar so the user can select a free slot to create a booking.
Many Thanks
Edit I took out the tool tip code I found in the full calendar docs and replaced it with ui tool tip instead, that is now working. What is the procedure for adding in my own events?

Issue: Fullcalendar shows 24 as midnight instead of 00:00

For some reason, Fullcalendar is showing events that start past midnight as e.g. '24:15'. We want it to show '00:15'. I think this is a new issue, because we have had the calendar for a year, and this is the first I'm hearing of it. But I can't find anything about how to solve it.
We are using fullcalendar v4.2.0. I did not write the original code, but I'm fairly familiar with it. We fetch events using a REST API, and we're using ServiceNow. When using the 12-hour format (am/pm), it shows 12a15. I tried changing the eventTimeFormat, but had no luck. This is part of the client script:
/* Calendar */
c.funcs.loadCalendar = function() {
var calendarEl = document.getElementById('calendar');
c.calendar = new FullCalendar.Calendar(calendarEl, {
contentHeight: 'auto',
plugins: [ 'dayGrid','timeGrid', 'list'],
header: {
left: 'prev next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'dayGridMonth,timeGridWeek,timeGridDay,listWeek,listMonth'
},
buttonText: {
dayGridMonth: 'Month',
timeGridWeek: 'Week',
timeGridDay: 'Day',
listWeek: 'List Week',
listMonth: 'List Month',
today: 'Today'
},
editable: false,
eventTimeFormat: {
hour: '2-digit',
minute: '2-digit',
hour12: false
},
eventOverlap: false,
firstDay: 1,
weekNumbers: true,
// Scripted REST API which sends Start and End date-time of current view as parameters and gets current events.
//events: '/api/tnas/fullcalendar_fetch_data',
events: function(info, successCallback, failureCallback) {
$http({
method: 'GET',
url: '/api/tnas/fullcalendar_fetch_data',
headers: {
'X-UserToken': window.g_ck // Authorization
},
params: {
systems: c.vars.selectedSystems.map(function(system) { return system.value; }).toString(),
excludedTypes: c.vars.types.filter(function(type) {return !type.checked}).map(function(type) { if(!type.checked) return type.type }).toString(),
start: info.start,
end: info.end
}
}).success(function(data, status) {
successCallback(data.result.events);
}).error(function(data, status) {failureCallback(data)});
},
loading: function(isLoading) {
c.vars.calendarIsLoading = isLoading;
$scope.$evalAsync();
},
// When event is rendered and put into the DOM, add a tippy.js tooltip to that element.
eventRender: function(info) {
tippy(info.el, {
theme: 'light-border',
content: info.event.extendedProps.tooltipContent,
arrow: true,
animation: 'fade',
flip: false,
boundary: 'window'
});
},
eventClick: function(info){
info.jsEvent.preventDefault();
var p = $scope.data.page_id || 'form';
var url = '/sp?id=' + p + '&table=' + info.event.extendedProps.table + '&sys_id=' + info.event.id + '&view=sp';
window.open(url, "_blank");
},
navLinks: true,
navLinkDayClick: function(date, jsEvent) {
//c.calendar.gotoDate(date);
c.calendar.changeView('timeGridDay', date);
}
});
c.calendar.render();
}
/* Calendar End */
JSON of the event:

Hopefully someone has experienced the same issue before. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Fixed: Replacing the hour12 property with hourCycle: 'h23' in eventTimeFormat did the trick!
eventTimeFormat: {
hour: '2-digit',
minute: '2-digit',
hourCycle: 'h23'
},

Recurring event in FullCalendar

So I have spent the past 2 weeks trying to figure this out and tried all other previously proposed answers. I'm still not able to get it right.
I'm trying to setup a calendar where the recurring events are filtered within the specified date range.
Example: "My event" - every Thursday at 2:15PM - Between 2017/06/01 and 2017/06/30.
I've unsuccessfully tried the solutions proposed on this link:
Recurring Events in FullCalendar
In the end end I decided to follow this route:
https://github.com/c-trimm/moment-recur
It's a moments.js plugin (moment-recur) that should process the date range filter.
Please help!
My json feed returns:
[{
"title":"my event",
"start":"2017-06-01T14:15",
"dow":"4",
"recurrence":"moment().recur[{
start:\"2017-06-01\",
end:\"2017-06-30\"}]"
}]
My calendar works except for the fact that it will not stop publishing the event on Thursdays forever. I don't want to have to manually duplicate the event.

$('#calendar').fullCalendar({

},
validRange: function(nowDate) {
return {
start: nowDate.clone().subtract(2, 'months'),
end: nowDate.clone().add(2, 'months')
};
},
// customize the button names,
// otherwise they'd all just say "list"
views: {
listDay: { buttonText: 'Day' },
listWeek: { buttonText: 'Week' },
},
hiddenDays: [ 5 ], // hide Fridays
editable: true,
eventLimit: true, // allow "more" link when too many events
businessHours: [ // specify an array instead
{
dow: [ 1 ], // Monday,
start: '12:30', // 8am
end: '22:00' // 6pm
},
{
dow: [ 2, 3 ], // Tuesday, Wednesday
start: '9:30', // 8am
end: '22:00' // 6pm
},
{
dow: [ 4, ], // Thursday
start: '13:00', // 10am
end: '22:00' // 4pm
},
{
dow: [ 7 ], // Sunday
start: '11:00', // 10am
end: '18:30' // 4pm
}],
events: 'my-event/feed',
//THIS IS WHERE I GET STUCK!!!!!
// I'm trying to implement this:
eventRender:
recurrence = moment().recur({
start: "01/01/2014",
end: "01/01/2015"
});
});
});
</script>
<div id='calendar'></div>
I believe i'm suppose to write it as a function but no mater what I try it either brakes the calendar or doesn't return any results. Thanks in advance to you all!

Below is the fiddler link for recurring events in fullcalendar.
http://jsfiddle.net/slicedtoad/duu0dx2t/1/
You need to specify dow property in event as specified in example.
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
defaultDate: moment(),
header: {
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,agendaWeek,agendaDay'
},
defaultView: 'month',
events: [{
title:"My repeating event",
start: '10:00', // a start time (10am in this example)
end: '14:00', // an end time (6pm in this example)
dow: [ 1, 4 ] // Repeat monday and thursday
}],
});

Show days and events only of the current month in the fullcalendar.io

In the 'Month' view of the fullcalendar.io I would like to display the current month only, with the current month events. However, currently what is being showed is a month counting from the current date.
E.g: If today's date was 2016-20-03...
- What fullcalendar display: From: 2016-20-03 To: 2016-19-04
- What I would like to display: From 2016-01-03 To: 2016-31-03
After reading the documentation and looking up around I couldn't find any variable or set up for the fullcalendar to achieve this so I thing that I will have to modify the fullcalendar.js
Has someone already done this?
View
$('#' + engineerId).fullCalendar({
header: false,
views: {
plainMonth: {
type: 'basic',
duration: { days: 31 },
buttonText: 'Month'
},
plainWeek: {
type: 'basic',
duration: { days: 7 },
buttonText: 'Week'
}
},
firstDay: 1,
dayNamesShort: ['S', 'M', 'T', 'W', 'T', 'F', 'S'],
defaultView: 'plainWeek',
theme: true,
viewRender: function (view, element) {
$('#CalendarViewObject').val(view.name);
viewName = view.name;
},
aspectRatio: ratio,
editable: true,
eventLimit: false, // allow "more" link when too many events
events: {
startEditable: false,
durationEditable: false,
url: window.location.href.toString().split(window.location.host)[1] + '/GetEmployeeEvents',
type: 'POST',
data: function () { // a function that returns an object
$("[id^=qtip-]").empty();
$("[id^=qtip-]").remove();
return {
serviceAreaId: serviceAreaId,
employeeId: engineerId,
calendarViewObject: $('#CalendarViewObject').val()
};
},
error: function () {
alert('there was an error while fetching events!');
}
},...
Controller
public JsonResult GetEmployeeEvents(DateTime start, DateTime end, string queueName, string employeeId, string calendarViewObject)
The 'start' and 'end' dates are set up by the fullcalendar.io, and those dates are the ones that I would like to change.
Thank you very much in advance,
Alvykun

After some more research in the fullcalendar documentation, I ended up by setting the following:
$(\'.calendarClass\').fullCalendar(\'gotoDate\',new Date(y, m, 1));
This did the trick and works!

FullCalendar load events from JSON feed on viewRender

FullCalendar v2.2.5, I want to use my JSON generating script to pull data only for the visible area of the calendar as mentioned in a few other questions.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,basicWeek,basicDay',
defaultAllDay: true,
},
lazyFetching: false,
defaultDate: '2015-01-06',
editable: false,
eventLimit: 10,
weekMode: 'liquid',
dayPopoverFormat: 'DD/MM/YYYY',
//events: {
// url: 'instant-tools.cgi',
// type: 'POST',
// data: {
// events: 1,
// pending: 1,
// from: '2014-01-01',
// to: '2016-12-31',
// }
// },
viewRender: function(view, element) {
var events_slice = new Object();
events_slice.eventSources = [
{
url: 'instant-tools.cgi',
type: 'POST',
data: { events: 1, pending: 1, from: '2014-01-01', to: '2016-12-31' }
}
];
$('#calendar').fullCalendar('addEventSource', events_slice);
//$('#calendar').fullCalendar('renderEvents');
},
eventClick: function(calEvent, jsEvent, view) {
alert(calEvent.title + "n" + calEvent.start.format('DD/MM/YYYY') + " to " + calEvent.end.format('DD/MM/YYYY'));
},
});
});
The commented out events definition works (when I use it) but the viewRender one does not. Before you ask viewRender does get triggered. I get no errors in the console and no events displayed. My script is not called at all. I know I have the dates hardcoded right now but I will use view.intervalStart and view.intervalEnd once I verify I get a similar result. Having $('#calendar').fullCalendar('renderEvents'); in there makes no difference, also toggling lazyFetching does not make a difference. Not a JS coder so I hope I'm just being silly somewhere.

in the event property you need to call the function
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#calendar').fullCalendar({
header: {
left: 'prev,next today',
center: 'title',
right: 'month,basicWeek,basicDay',
defaultAllDay: true,
},
lazyFetching: false,
defaultDate: '$today',
editable: false,
eventLimit: 10,
weekMode: 'liquid',
dayPopoverFormat: 'DD/MM/YYYY',
events: function(start, end, timezone, callback) {
$.ajax({
url: 'instant-tools.cgi',
data: {
events: 1,
pending: 1,
from: '2014-01-01',
to: '2016-12-31',
},
success: function(doc) {
var obj = jQuery.parseJSON(doc);
var events = [];
$.each(obj, function(index, value) {
events.push({
id: value['id'],
//all data
});
//console.log(value)
});
callback(events);
},
error: function(e, x, y) {
console.log(e);
console.log(x);
console.log(y);
}
});
},
eventClick: function(calEvent, jsEvent, view) {
alert(calEvent.title + "n" + calEvent.start.format('DD/MM/YYYY') + " to " + calEvent.end.format('DD/MM/YYYY'));
},
});
});
