Icon calendar generator - image

Question

Are there any calendar Photoshop/illustrator scripts which can automatically generate a date number similar to this calendar icon image?
I need similar icon with date (1,2,3..31) and name of every month but in .png format. I cannot use html/css3 and jquery to create icon.
Thank you for answers and help

Yes, it's possible. I like a challenge:)
First with the template image open
Second create a folder folder C:\temp\calendar (or change the destination path in the script)
Run the script below and it'll generate dates as defined with sdate & eDate (start & end date) - currently November, 30 to December 01
// Load in background image before running script
// call the source document
var srcDoc = app.activeDocument;
var sDate = new Date("November, 30, 2016 00:00:00");
var eDate = new Date("January, 01, 2017 00:00:00");
var myPath = "c:\\temp\\calendar"
printDate(sDate, eDate, myPath, srcDoc);
//-----------------------------
function printDate(start, end, apath, sauce)
{
if (start == undefined) return;
if (end == undefined) return;
// set long month names
var monthNames = ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June",
"July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December"
];
str = "";
// main loop here
while(start <= end)
{
// Display the month, day, and year.
// getMonth() returns a 0-based number.
var monthNum = start.getMonth()+1;
var month = monthNames[monthNum-1].toUpperCase();
var day = start.getDate();
var year = start.getFullYear();
// alert(month + " " + day + " " + year);
// num padding
if (monthNum < 10) monthNum = "0" + monthNum;
if (day < 10) day = "0" + day;
var theDate = "cal_" + monthNum + "_" + day + "_" + year;
duplicateIt(theDate);
var day = start.getDate();
str = (day);
var newDate = start.setDate(start.getDate() + 1);
// fontface, size, R,G,B, text, X, Y
// print bigmonth
createText("Arial-BoldMT", 38.0,255, 255, 255, month, 582, 460);
// print big day
createText("Arial-BoldMT", 176.0, 0, 0, 0, day, 582, 1144);
var f = apath + "\\" + theDate + ".png";
// alert(f)
saveAsPNG(f, 10);
// close that saved png
app.activeDocument.close();
// get the original source doc
app.activeDocument = sauce;
// reset start
start = new Date(newDate);
}
}
// function DUPLICATE IT (str)
// --------------------------------------------------------
function duplicateIt(str)
{
// duplicate image into new document
if (arguments.length == 0) str = "temp";
var id428 = charIDToTypeID( "Dplc" );
var desc92 = new ActionDescriptor();
var id429 = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
var ref27 = new ActionReference();
var id430 = charIDToTypeID( "Dcmn" );
var id431 = charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" );
var id432 = charIDToTypeID( "Frst" );
ref27.putEnumerated( id430, id431, id432 );
desc92.putReference( id429, ref27 );
var id433 = charIDToTypeID( "Nm " );
desc92.putString( id433, str ); // name
executeAction( id428, desc92, DialogModes.NO );
}
// function SAVE JPEG(file name & path)
// --------------------------------------------------------
function saveAsPNG(afilePath)
{
// flatten it
activeDocument.flatten();
// save as a png
var pngFile = new File(afilePath);
pngSaveOptions = new PNGSaveOptions();
pngSaveOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
pngSaveOptions.formatOptions = FormatOptions.STANDARDBASELINE;
pngSaveOptions.matte = MatteType.NONE; pngSaveOptions.quality = 1;
activeDocument.saveAs(pngFile, pngSaveOptions, false, Extension.LOWERCASE);
}
// function CREATE TEXT(typeface, size, R, G, B, content, Xpos, Ypos, justify)
// --------------------------------------------------------
function createText(fface, size, colR, colG, colB, content, X, Y)
{
// Add a new layer in the new document
var artLayerRef = app.activeDocument.artLayers.add()
// Specify that the layer is a text layer
artLayerRef.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
artLayerRef.name = content;
//This section defines the color of the text
textColor = new SolidColor();
textColor.rgb.red = colR;
textColor.rgb.green = colG;
textColor.rgb.blue = colB;
//Get a reference to the text item so
// that we can add the text and format it a bit
textItemRef = artLayerRef.textItem
textItemRef.font = fface;
textItemRef.contents = content;
textItemRef.color = textColor;
textItemRef.size = size;
//pixels from the left, pixels from the top
textItemRef.position = new Array(X, Y)
just = Justification.CENTER;
activeDocument.activeLayer.textItem.justification = just;
}
It's save them as .PNG files named after the date.
