MMM-CalendarExt3 - use hidden calendar and remote weather locale?

[eqpaisley]

@sdetweil Actually I figured it out SORT OF. Just added another calendar module and no position and it did exactly what you said. However – if I don’t put this second instance of the calendar as the LAST thing in my config.js, it stops all modules below it from loading. Really odd.

Thanks for all the help!

You can use

calendarSet: ['CALENDAR_NAME1', 'CALENDAR_NAME2', ...], 

You need to assign a name attribute to your target calendar of default calendar module(s).

For specifying the target weather, once I considered that case but had thought nobody would use the weather module like that. But finally, here are you. I’ll implement that feature on the next update.

I have arrived!!! :)

Kidding. But, yeah, if I could throw my openweather API key and new location data into the MMMCal3 config, that would be sick!

@eqpaisley odd indeed. all the default modules support multiple instances , by config in config.js

@eqpaisley here’s what I would do. Install MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda and use it instead of the default calendar module to display events. You’ll still use calendar, just not use it with the position indicator. CE3A gives you a ton more control over the calendars displayed and used, is prettier, and more functional, IMO.

I’ve updated. Check ver 1.2.6
