MMM-CalendarExt3 and MMM-MonthlyCalendar blank

[sdetweil]

@Scott-M if you run under pm2, look at the logs for the timestamps to compare for startup (waitfetch) time needed

[Scott-M]

@sdetweil I don’t run under pm2 but will look at that just now

@Scott-M said in MMM-CalendarExt3 and MMM-MonthlyCalendar blank:

broadcastPastEvents: true,

also, this is the default for calendar
| correction… broadcastEvents is true
| broadcastPastEvents defaults to false…

@Scott-M said in MMM-CalendarExt3 and MMM-MonthlyCalendar blank:

/* {
module: “MMM-CalendarExt3”,
disabled: true,

also, you can add disabled:true,
instead of having to comment out
see https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/configuration.html#module-configuration

[sdetweil]

@Scott-M said in MMM-CalendarExt3 and MMM-MonthlyCalendar blank:

calendar.js:703 sorting events count=23

where is the broadcasting message?

do the events show in the default calendar display?

[Scott-M]

Even setting the waitFetch to 60 secods doesn’t help, the regualr calendar populates straight way, well before the Ext3 shows.

@Scott-M ok, open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i on the MagicMirror
page

select the console tab,
put ext3 in the filter field

are there any errors reported?

you did run npm install in the MMM-CalendarExt3 folder after git clone, right?

[Scott-M]

I did run nmp install in the MMM-CalendarExt3 folder!

This is the result of the Ext3 filter in the console

[sdetweil]

@Scott-M I don’t know… I just re-enabled my ext3

my ext3 config

      {
        module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
        position: "bottom_bar",
        disabled: false,
        order: "*",
        hiddenOnStartup: false,
        configDeepMerge: false,
        animateIn: "None",
        animateOut: "None",
        config: {
          eventFilter: (ev) =>  {
 return true 
},
          eventTransformer: (ev) =>  {
 return ev 
},
          manipulateDateCell: (cellDom, events) =>  {
},
          weatherPayload: (payload) =>  {
 return payload 
},
          eventPayload: (payload) =>  {
 return payload 
}
        }
      },

note this is output from MMM-Confg setting all the extra options

[Scott-M]

Thanks for posting that but even with that config it is still blank. I have to leave it for now but will start on it fresh tomorrow and rebuild it and see what happens. Hopefully it is just something simple I missed.
