Weekly Calendar

[jbrodie]

So I hate to drag out an old post from the past but I found this thread when I was looking for exactly this. I looked around and it appears that it was never actually put into place so I took the base code from @kirash4 as well as a fork of it from @dragomirtodorov and have made some changes.

The attached screenshot is the result. I won’t lie, this is about 4 hours of messing with it so I need to go through and clean it up more before I post it, as well as I had to make some changed on the main calendar code that will need to be submitted as a pull request to get that brought in to make it function.

In any case, this is what it is looking like now.

@jbrodie That is amazing…exactly what I was looking for. I look forward to seeing this progress into an actual module. It was really the only thing holding me back from setting this up because my wife loves seeing a monthly planner with a lot of detail.

Ya we manage a monthly whiteboard, and recently got an Alexa, which I have tied to a google calendar, which ultimately lead to me coming back to making a mirror since I could use this.

There are a ton of things I want to do with this but baby steps to get started. I was thinking about having it scroll through 3 - 4 weeks one week at a time, or page through 2 at a time or something as well. I figured starting out with 2 is a decent view for the up coming, since when it hits Sunday, that will move the current week into the top position on the week and show the next week after. Needs some more testing but will certainly get it up and posted as soon as possible.

I’d suggest making it show x amount of weeks, set in the module’s config, x being 1 to 4 weeks.

@doubleT I had thought about that but I think the sizing may be an issue. Have to mess with it to see.

@doubleT @jbrodie Have you tried MMM-CalendarExt by @sean? I use the daily view which gives one week, and is fairly configurable. Should be fairly straightforward to display multiple weeks.

hate to bump an old thread, but this too is exactly what i am looking for. i just took a peek at the MMM-CalendarExt but it lacks the elegant clean weeky view that has been previewed here.

Just a second for @Sean’s module though I prefer his MMM-CalendarExt2 which was way easier to implement and looks great once you get it into place.

screenshots look nice on MMM-CalendarExt2, i will definately check this out
