MMRIZE

CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME=
CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME=

For SYNOLOGY

SYNOLOGY_username=username1
SYNOLOGY_password=password1

I think you may have confusing the username and password for the server and the module.

SYNOLOGY_username=username1
SYNOLOGY_password=password1

This is for your Synology Caldav Server, usually it is your account id/password to login Synology Server (Or Synology calendar account)

CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME=username2
CALDAV_SERVICE_PASSWORD=password2

This is a different thing. It is used for your MM calendar module. This module provide a secure calendar ics host by itself with this auth information. You should need to set your calendar config like this;

// default calendar module.
{
  module: "calendar",
  position: "top_left",
  config: {
    calendars: [
      {
        symbol: "calendar-check",
        url: "http://localhost:8080/CALDAV/SYNOLOGY_Family.ics",
        auth: { // REQUIRED
          user: 'username2', // <= used here (CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME)
          pass: 'password2', // <= used here (CALDAV_SERVICE_PASSWORD)
          method: 'basic'
        }
      },
...

Thank you for your quick reply.

@sdetweil I’m not using pm2 at the moment, but I could try to do it and check the logs.

@MMRIZE sorry, my bad. I changed the password for the post, it’s correct in my .env but not working.

I’m not exactly sure about the Synology url
synology.com says I should use
http://192.168.x.x:5000/caldav
and than log in with my username and password

But an older link is (seems there was an update)
http://192.168.x.x:5000/caldav/username/ejialfjl/

If I’m using the last one in the browser, it is downloading an .ics file.

But it’s not working with both urls.

Maybe I should try to reinstall everything?

sdetweil

@Tiller if you are not using pm2 then the errors would be shown where you do npm start

sdetweil

@Tiller no reinstall

can you show us the new url(#2) in config.js,
assume you are still using the env variables

@Tiller
CalDAV is different to general ics hosting.

Usually, the URL of Synology CalDAV accessing would be;

https://IP_OR_URL:5001/caldav/
http://IP_OR_URL:5000/caldav/

Anyway, there would be some log to diagnosis. Can you show the frontend and backend logs?

@MMRIZE

Hi,

i´ve got the same problem. I´m completly new to magicmirror but the integration of my Synology CalDAV should be the main part of it.

i´ve tried several combinations and addresses but no one worked for me.

maybe its possible to get a “step - by - step” Tutorial.

hopefully you can help :)

https://github.com/MMRIZE/MMM-CalDAV/wiki

Install

cd <Your MagicMirror directory>/modules
git clone https://github.com/MMRIZE/MMM-CalDAV
cd MMM-CalDAV
npm install

There would be .env (It would be hidden, so you should check it with ls -al or equivalent for your environment/OS)

If not there, copy it from env.example

cp env.example .env

Open your Synology Calendar. You can open it from your Synology Package Center Or installed app lists. Usually it will have http(s)://<IP_OR_URL>:<PORT(5000 or 5001)>/?launchApp=SYNO.Cal.Application as URL so you can open it on the browser.

You will see something like this.

Get the CadDAV account. Copy or memo the URL. Usually URL will have http(s)://<IP_OR_URL>:<PORT_5000_OR_5001>/caldav/ format.

Back to the terminal. Open the .env file with your favourite editor. Then, fulfil these lines.
Then configure the MMM-CalDAV module and the calendar module like this.

Carefully See the configuration of the calendar module.

Then run the MagicMirror.
At the very first execution, some time would be needed for CalDAV calendars to be reflected on the screen. So, just stop the MagicMirror.

If CalDAV calendars would be success to be derived, the log will say something like this.

[2024-09-03 22:52:01.461] [LOG]   [CALDAV] File: SYNOLOGY_test.ics is refreshed.

And there be files to be hosted in the service directory like these;

I have two calendars, My Calendar and test, so there would be 2 hidden ics files generated, service/.SYNOLOGY_My_20Calendar.ics and service/.SYNOLOGY_test.ics.

But the real URL consumed by the calendar module would be http://localhost:8080/CALDAV/SYNOLOGY_test.ics, don’t be confused.

Rerun the MM again. Now on the screen, your hosting calendar will be served.

@MMRIZE said in MMM-CalDAV:

Hi thank you very much for the really fast supply.

the strange thing is that i configured it like you said. but if im running it the magicmirror it is showing me that the “Site is not reachable” (The Synology default page)

if im running MM just without the CALDAV Module it´s working.

I´m running the MM in Docker on the Synology.

@caw could you show me the capture of error message to know what happened?

caw

@MMRIZE if i´m adding the

 {
		module :"MMM-CalDAV",
		config: {
			servers: [
				{
					envPrefix: "SYNOLOGY_",
					serverUrl: "https://myownsynologyadress.de/caldav/",
			],
		},
	},

following error occurs
