blackwood / highlight-to-google-calendar Goto Github PK

When I am viewing a Facebook event page, I want to be able to get the event into my Google Calendar in one click.

Right now, I highlight the event info...

...but it always takes a bit of manual editing once I'm looking at the Google Calendar event edit screen

Namely, as pictured above:

1. The title sometimes takes random extra info
2. the location ends up in the description, not the location text field
3. the start time comes over but the end time doesn't (it always creates a 1-hour event)

This "Send to Calendar" extension seems like it might do this, but when I tried it, it just copies over the event URL, no info at all.

Thoughts on implementation:

• The current extension action requires two clicks to open the Google Calendar edit page: one click on the extension icon, and a second click on the "Create Event" link. Maybe this verification step could be skipped or turned off in an extension setting? Or maybe, the extension could create a Page Action that modifies the extension icon appearance & behavior when it's on a Facebook Event page URL (https://www.facebook.com/events/*)
