Google Calendar is a popular task scheduling application used by many people.
This package provides a simple way to add a scheduled task to Google Calendar by generating a link with all the parameters of the task.
So when the user clicks on that link, the browser goes to a page of Google Calendar to add the task to his calendar.

Logging
This package can use any PSR-3 compliant logger. The logger is initialized with a NullLogger-object
by default. The logger of your choice have to be passed to the constructor of the GCalAddEventLink class.
If you are not working with a PSR-3 compatible logger so far, this is a good opportunity
to deal with this recommendation and may work with it in the future.
There are several more or less extensive PSR-3 packages available on the Internet.
You can also take a look at the
'XLogger'
package and the associated blog
'PSR-3 logging in a PHP application'
as an introduction to this topic.
