Story 3.3: Availability Calendar Display
Epic Reference
Epic 3: Booking & Consultation System
User Story
As a client, I want to see a calendar with available time slots, So that I can choose a convenient time for my consultation.
Story Context
Existing System Integration
- Integrates with: working_hours, blocked_times, consultations tables
- Technology: Livewire Volt, JavaScript calendar library
- Follows pattern: Real-time availability checking
- Touch points: Booking submission flow
Acceptance Criteria
Calendar Display
- Monthly calendar view showing available dates
- Visual distinction for date states:
- Available (has open slots)
- Partially available (some slots taken)
- Unavailable (fully booked or blocked)
- Past dates (grayed out)
- Navigate between months
- Current month shown by default
Time Slot Display
- Clicking a date shows available time slots
- 1-hour slots (45min consultation + 15min buffer)
- Clear indication of slot availability
- Unavailable reasons (optional):
- Already booked
- Outside working hours
- Blocked by admin
Real-time Updates
- Availability checked on date selection
- Prevent double-booking (race condition handling)
- Refresh availability when navigating months
Navigation Constraints
- Prevent navigating to months before current month (all dates would be "past")
- Optionally limit future navigation (e.g., max 3 months ahead) - configurable (deferred to future story)
Responsive Design
- Mobile-friendly calendar
- Touch-friendly slot selection
- Proper RTL support for Arabic
Quality Requirements
- Fast loading (eager load data)
- Language-appropriate date formatting
- Accessible (keyboard navigation)
- Tests for availability logic

RTL Support Implementation
The calendar requires specific RTL handling for Arabic users:
-
Navigation arrows: Already handled with locale-aware chevron direction (see Blade template)
-
Day headers order: Use locale-aware day ordering:
// In Volt component
private function getDayHeaders(): array
{
$days = ['Sun', 'Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat'];
// Arabic calendar traditionally starts on Saturday
if (app()->getLocale() === 'ar') {
// Reorder: Sat, Sun, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri
array_unshift($days, array_pop($days));
}
return $days;
}
- Calendar grid direction: Apply RTL class to the grid container:
<div class="grid grid-cols-7 gap-1" dir="{{ app()->getLocale() === 'ar' ? 'rtl' : 'ltr' }}">
- Required translation keys (add to
lang/ar/calendar.phpandlang/en/calendar.php):
// lang/en/calendar.php
return [
'Sun' => 'Sun',
'Mon' => 'Mon',
'Tue' => 'Tue',
'Wed' => 'Wed',
'Thu' => 'Thu',
'Fri' => 'Fri',
'Sat' => 'Sat',
];
// lang/ar/calendar.php
return [
'Sun' => 'أحد',
'Mon' => 'إثن',
'Tue' => 'ثلا',
'Wed' => 'أرب',
'Thu' => 'خمي',
'Fri' => 'جمع',
'Sat' => 'سبت',
];
- Booking translation keys (add to
lang/*/booking.php):
// lang/en/booking.php
return [
'available' => 'Available',
'partial' => 'Partial',
'unavailable' => 'Unavailable',
'available_times' => 'Available Times',
'no_slots_available' => 'No slots available for this date.',
];
// lang/ar/booking.php
return [
'available' => 'متاح',
'partial' => 'متاح جزئياً',
'unavailable' => 'غير متاح',
'available_times' => 'الأوقات المتاحة',
'no_slots_available' => 'لا توجد مواعيد متاحة لهذا التاريخ.',
];

Dependencies
- Story 3.1: Working hours (defines available time) - MUST be completed first
- Story 3.2: Blocked times (removes availability) - MUST be completed first
- Story 3.4: Booking submission (consumes selected slot) - developed after this story
Parent Component Dependency
This calendar component is designed to be embedded within a parent booking component (Story 3.4). The $parent.selectSlot() call expects the parent to have a selectSlot(string $date, string $time) method. For standalone testing, create a wrapper component or mock the parent interaction.
Risk Assessment
- Primary Risk: Race condition on slot selection
- Mitigation: Database-level unique constraint, check on submission
- Rollback: Refresh availability if booking fails
Race Condition Prevention Strategy
The calendar display component itself does not handle booking submission - that is Story 3.4's responsibility. However, this story must support race condition prevention by:
-
Fresh availability check on date selection: Always reload slots when a date is clicked (already implemented in
loadAvailableSlots()) -
Database constraint (to be added in Story 3.4 migration):
// In consultations table migration
$table->unique(['scheduled_date', 'scheduled_time'], 'unique_consultation_slot');
- Optimistic UI with graceful fallback: If a slot is selected but booking fails due to race condition, the calendar should refresh availability:
// In parent booking component (Story 3.4)
public function selectSlot(string $date, string $time): void
{
// Re-verify slot is still available before proceeding
$service = app(AvailabilityService::class);
$availableSlots = $service->getAvailableSlots(Carbon::parse($date));
if (!in_array($time, $availableSlots)) {
$this->dispatch('slot-unavailable');
$this->loadAvailableSlots(); // Refresh the calendar
return;
}
$this->selectedDate = $date;
$this->selectedTime = $time;
}

Change Log
- Implemented AvailabilityService with methods for:
getMonthAvailability()- Returns status for all days in a monthgetDateStatus()- Returns availability status (past, closed, blocked, full, partial, available)getAvailableSlots()- Returns available time slots for a date
- Created availability-calendar Volt component with:
- Monthly calendar view with navigation
- Visual distinction for date states (color-coded)
- RTL support with locale-aware day headers and grid direction
- Time slot display on date selection
- Prevents navigation to past months
- Added bilingual translations for calendar days and booking status
- Fixed date comparison issue with SQLite in-memory database by using
whereDate()instead of string comparison - All 256 project tests passing
Debug Log References
- Fixed SQLite date comparison issue:
whereDate()required instead ofwhere('column', $carbon->toDateString())for SQLite in-memory databases used in tests
Completion Notes
- The
$parent.selectSlot()method is designed to be called from a parent booking component (Story 3.4). For standalone use, the component shows available slots but requires integration. - Future navigation limit (e.g., max 3 months ahead) is deferred as it's marked as optional/configurable.
- The Consultation model uses
booking_dateandbooking_timecolumns (notscheduled_date/scheduled_timeas in story notes) - implementation adapted accordingly. - Used
whereDate()for database queries to ensure compatibility with both SQLite (testing) and MariaDB (production) date comparisons.
QA Results
Review Date: 2025-12-26
Reviewed By: Quinn (Test Architect)
Risk Assessment
Risk Level: MEDIUM - Standard feature with well-defined scope
- Auto-escalation triggers evaluated:
- Auth/payment/security files touched: NO
- Tests added to story: YES (26 tests)
- Diff > 500 lines: NO (~500 lines across 8 files)
- Previous gate: N/A (first review)
- Story has > 5 acceptance criteria: YES (16 ACs across multiple categories)
Code Quality Assessment
Overall: EXCELLENT
The implementation demonstrates high-quality code with:
- Clean Architecture: Service layer (
AvailabilityService) properly encapsulates business logic - Proper Separation of Concerns: Calendar UI (Volt component) cleanly separated from availability logic
- Type Declarations: All methods have explicit return types and PHPDoc annotations
- Eloquent Best Practices: Uses
Model::query()pattern,whereDate()for date comparisons - Enum Usage: ConsultationStatus enum properly used for status checks
- Bilingual Support: Complete translations in both English and Arabic
Notable Implementation Choices:
whereDate()used for SQLite/MariaDB compatibility - excellent database portability- RTL support properly implemented with locale-aware day headers and grid direction
- Slot calculation correctly handles all-day blocks vs. time-range blocks

Test Architecture Assessment
Test Distribution:
- Unit tests: 14 (AvailabilityServiceTest)
- Feature tests: 12 (AvailabilityCalendarTest)
- Total assertions: 73
Test Quality: EXCELLENT
- Proper use of
describe()blocks for logical grouping - Edge cases covered: year rollover, blocked dates, fully booked, cancelled consultations
- Factory states properly utilized:
allDay(),timeRange(),pending(),approved() - Locale testing included for RTL support
Test Gaps Identified:
- No test for multiple blocked time ranges on same date
- No test for boundary conditions (slot at exact end of working hours)
Compliance Check
- Coding Standards: ✓
- Class-based Volt component pattern followed
Model::query()pattern used throughout- PHPDoc annotations present
- Project Structure: ✓
- Files in correct locations per story spec
- Translation files in correct directories
- Testing Strategy: ✓
- Pest tests with
Volt::test()for Livewire component - Unit tests for service layer
RefreshDatabaseproperly configured in Pest.php
- Pest tests with
- All ACs Met: ✓ (19/20 - 1 deferred by design)
Improvements Checklist
QA Handled:
- Verified all 26 tests pass
- Verified code follows Laravel and project coding standards
- Verified proper use of enums for status checks
- Verified bilingual translations complete
Recommended for Future Consideration:
- Add test for multiple blocked time ranges on same date (LOW priority)
- Add boundary test for slot at exact working hour end (LOW priority)
- Consider caching month availability for performance (FUTURE - not needed at current scale)
Security Review
Status: PASS
- No authentication required for calendar viewing (public-facing per story design)
- No user input is persisted by this component
- Date parameter validated through Carbon parsing
- No SQL injection risk - uses Eloquent query builder
- No XSS risk - Blade auto-escapes output
Performance Considerations
Status: PASS
getMonthAvailability()makes N+1 queries (one per day) - acceptable for 28-31 days- Consider: For high-traffic scenarios, batch-load working hours and blocked times
- Current implementation suitable for expected traffic levels
