    A module that changes the text color of a Calender when the next event happens in a certain amount of time.

    before i made this i asked if it is even possible people said yes but now i would like to see it happen.
    the only issue for me is the fact that i am really bad at programming i wouldn’t even know where to start.

    but the purpose of this would be that if there is 5 minutes left till a event the text would turn red. or something like that.

    could somebody help me with making it or by makking it i would appreciate it really much.

    Kind regards,
    ~M

      MMM-CalendarExt2 has transform feature so a user can change attributes of events by conditions. Above example shows the transforming of icon and class of events.

      ...
                {
                  name: "VIEW3",
                  mode: "upcoming",
                  position:"top_center",
                  transform:(event) => {
                    if (event.startDate < ((Date.now()/1000 + 60*60*4))) {
                      event.className = "urgent"
                      event.icon = "flat-color-icons:alarm-clock"
                      event.title = "[URGENT] " + event.title
                    }
                    return event
                  }
                },
      ...

          @Sean you wouldn’t happen to know a way to have the description of a event be displayed instead of the organizer?

          I am using the magic mirror framework for a roommanagement system for the company i work for and they use a Office calendar to manage the room but now it shows who reserved the room and not the reason why.

            Do you mean showing Description or Location of event?

              yes just showing the discrition of a event.

              they make an event for that day and in the description part they fill in what they need the room for.
              so instead of seeing thier names on the screen they would like to see the description.
              location is not needed seen as the screens are at the room.

              thanks for all your help BTW.

                If you are using MMM-CalendarExt2, you can transform title of an event by replacing with description field of event.

                    transform:(event) => {
                      event.title = event.description
                      if (event.startDate < ((Date.now()/1000 + 60*15))) {
                        event.className = "urgent"
                        event.icon = "flat-color-icons:alarm-clock"
                      }
                      return event
                    }
                  },
                  ...
                ]

                    @Sean i might seem to be a absolute knob head for you but when i put the codes in my .js file it breaks the file.
                    or is the code supposed to go in to the .css file?
