Version 2.30.0 Calendar fix for clipping broadcast events

sdetweil · Jan 3, 2025, 1:39 PM

after installing Jan 1 2025 MM version, events broadcast to MMM-CalendarExt3 are clipped incorrectly

apply this fix (til next release)

cd ~/MagicMirror
git fetch origin pull/3679/head:_fix_clipping
git switch _fix_clipping
npm run install-mm
# if you get an error error, rm package-lock.json
# and repeat the git switch
restart MM

this fix has been accepted and added to the next release

you can use that package instead
see https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/14327/testing-new-fixes-or-solving-current-problems-with-next-release-code
to get the develop branch
#NOTE: using develop requires a new

npm run install-mm

absolutely my fault… BUT
this release has been stable and in test since October… but clearly not enough tested it.

@sdetweil not sure what happened, but I added events to the calendars that weren’t showing up to try and troubleshoot, and now they’re all populated properly… Thanks for all your help with this. Now it’s on to fixing the weather widget.

@sdetweil maybe hotfix needed ?

sdetweil · Jan 3, 2025, 4:06 PM

@bugsounet lets get thru this first… (this IS a hotfix)
only have one feedback so far

bugsounet · Jan 3, 2025, 4:22 PM

@sdetweil ok,… If you think that is an hot fix, not me :/

I just wish users good luck for the next update.

why ?
just because they lost master branch

bugsounet@PC-Bugsounet:~/MagicMirror$ git branch
* _fix_clipping
  develop
  master

so they NEVER have MM v2.31.0, git pull will not works (detached head) :/

That’s why … maybe hotfix needed (v2.30.1)

sdetweil · Jan 3, 2025, 4:25 PM

@bugsounet my script puts it back on the master before the fetch…

easy man…

lets work thru the issue first…
confirm it works
and then work on how to deploy it

its not fatal…

only been a few hours…

hotfix - provide a way repeatable for customer to get around the problem

Hello, I am new to this. I am not getting my Google calendar to populate in this Module. It is populating in the default calendar.
I have tried the above but when I try the switch, terminal gives an error. Your local changes to the files would be overwritten by checkout. Package-lock.json
Please commit your changes or stash them before you switch branches. Sorry for the newb inquiry.

sdetweil · Jan 8, 2025, 4:48 PM

@djkleric erase
rm package-lock.sjon

@sdetweil I have tried to apply your fix as mentioned however i am still not getting events to populate in the MMM-CalendarExt3 module.

I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the module entirely hoping that would help. Below is my config file and the launch window if that is of any assistance.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

@MDWEBB ok

two things

if you comment out a module in config. js with block comment markrrs /* */ then must get the opening and closing braces too

a better way is just to add

disabled: true,

after the module:… line
chsnge back to false to re-enable the module

second

can you show me the output of

cd ~/MagicMirror 
git branch

MDWEBB · Jan 7, 2025, 8:34 PM
