Calendar Color

[billp100]

@strawberry-3.141 That’s it then. I didn’t realize that. Is there away for me to get that feature without having to start over?

[strawberry 3.141]

@billp100 to use the develop branch you just have to do the following

cd ~/MagicMirror
git fetch
git checkout develop
git pull
npm install

@strawberry-3.141 I just did those steps and got an npm WARN grunt-yamllint@0.2.0 requires a peer of grunt@~0.4.0 but none was installed message

Got it! thank you for your help

Great discussion. I have also added the options to add color the my two calendars, without success. Does anyone know if color is active in the current code? Here is my config setup:

{
    module: 'calendar',
    header: 'My Calendar',
    position: 'top_left',
    config: {
    	colored:  true,
	calendars: [
		{
		symbol: 'calendar ',
		url: 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/.../basic.ics',
		color: '#f70000'
		},
               	 {
		symbol: 'calendar-o ',
		url: 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/.../basic.ics'
		color: '#04f448'
             		},
                    ]
            }
},

Many thanks

That was fast, thanks very much. How can you tell when it is released?

Thanks

quick question on this issue…it the function already released? I can’t get it to work :( My config is:

 {
            module: "calendar",
            colored: true,
            header: "Termine",
            position: "top_left",
            config: {
                displaySymbol: true,
                timeFormat: "absolute",
                getRelative: "0",
                urgency: "0",
                dateFormat: "DD.MM HH:mm",
                FullDayEventDateFormat: "DD.MM",
                fetchInterval: "5000",
                fade: false,
                calendars: [
                    {
                        symbol: "mars",
                        color: '#f70000',
                         url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar...",
                    },
                    {
                        symbol: "venus",
                        color: '#f70000',
                        url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar...",
                    },
                    {
                        symbol: "clock",
                        color: '#f70000',
                        url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar...",
                    },
                    {
                        symbol: "globe",
                        color: '#f70000',                        
                        url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar...",
                    },
                    {
                        symbol: "cocktail",
                        color: '#f70000',
                        url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar...",
                    }
                ]
            }
        },

Hello Aries,
have you found a solution for this problem? I have started my Mirror Build today and achieved a lot of good working things. But the calendars are driving me nuts. First test with MMM-MyCalendar failed because of incorect displayed times (11 or 25 minutes off). Never the less that one had colors. Now i switched back to the “default” calendar, and at least the times are properly shown (despite the fact the the absolute or relative Parameters are doing nothing…). Unfortunately it is not possible to change the colors of the different url’s.
So please drop me a line if you found a solution to it. Or if not “Same problem here +1”

Thanks a lot

@LeFreak76 , I found a solution that worked for me: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/tree/develop/modules/default/calendar#calendar-configuration

Basically, you need to add colored and coloredSymbolOnly settings/values. Then you can add the color setting with the hex code for each calendar.
