child: Column(
children: [
Center(
child: new RaisedButton(
onPressed: _showDialog,
child: new Text("Get Recurrence date collections"),

Expanded(
child: SfCalendar(
view: CalendarView.month,
dataSource: _getCalendarDataSource(),
))
],
),
_AppointmentDataSource _getCalendarDataSource() {
List<Appointment> appointments = <Appointment>[];
appointments.add(Appointment(
startTime: _startTime!,
