Error : Updating Calender from Google Spreadsheet - google-apps-script

Question

I created a script that can update the Google Calender from Google Spreadsheet.My Spreadsheet is like
|A | B | C | ------ |AS|AT|AU|
in my code
function getRows(){
var data = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().getDataRange().getValues();
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var date = new Date(data[44][1]);
var calId = "**************#group.calendar.google.com";
var cal = CalendarApp.getCalendarById(calId);
var range = sheet.getDataRange();
for (j=0,i=3;i<15;i++,j++) {
var title=data[44][i];
var tstart = new Date(data[9][i]);
tstart.setDate(date.getDate());
tstart.setMonth(date.getMonth());
tstart.setYear(date.getYear());
var tstop = new Date(data[9][i+1]);
tstop.setDate(date.getDate());
tstop.setMonth(date.getMonth());
tstop.setYear(date.getYear());
var desc="adkd";
var loc="akskd";
var id = data[44][26+j];
try {
var event = cal.getEventSeriesById(id);
}
catch (e) {
}
if (!event) {
var newEvent = cal.createEvent(title, tstart, tstop, {description:desc,location:loc}).getId();
data[44][26+j] = newEvent;
}
else {
event.setTitle(title);
event.setDescription(desc);
event.setLocation(loc);
var recurrence = CalendarApp.newRecurrence().addDailyRule().times(1);
event.setRecurrence(recurrence, tstart, tstop);
}
debugger;
range.setValues(data);
}
}
In this i am getting an error as
Incorrect range width was 27 but should be 24
i increased the column numbers.But still i am getting this error.

Answer 1

instead of range.setValues(data); you should try
sheet.getRange(1,1,data.length,data[0].length).setValues(data);
so you'll be sure that the range has the right size (at least if data is homogeneous (same number of columns in each row)
EDIT
Here is a script to "normalize your output array so that it can be used as value in setValues().
In this example I push values 'Z' to see it more easily in the logger (for demo) but of course you should replace the 'Z' with '' so that it only adds empty cells.
I join a test function and the Logger result below.
function test(){
var array = [['xx','xx'],['xx','xx','xx'],['xx','xx','xx','xx','xx'],['xx','xx','xx','xx','xx','xx','xx']];
Logger.log('array '+JSON.stringify(array)+'\n becomes '+JSON.stringify(arrayNormalize(array)));
}
function arrayNormalize(array) {
var lenMax = 0;
for(var n in array){
if(array[n].length>lenMax){lenMax = array[n].length };
}
Logger.log('max array width = '+lenMax);
for(var n in array){
while(array[n].length<lenMax){
array[n].push('Z');
};
}
return array;
}
use this function as follows in your code :
var newData = arrayNormalize(data);
sheet.getRange(1,1,newData.length,newData[0].length).setValues(newData);
