Default calendar

[sdetweil]

@aquaman the calendar data looks fine…

where on your local system did you place that file? it MUST be under the modules/default/calendar folder

also, open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i, select the tab labeled ‘console’ and scroll up to see if there are any errors reported, usually red text

Thank you for your reply.
I have the ICS file under /MagicMirror/modules. I have also downloaded another ics-file named basic.ics (from google calendar) in same folder. basic.ics works just fine, but birthdays.ics is not. I have now also tried both files in /default/calendar with same result (basic.ics works, birthdays.ics not…)
I cannot find any reported errors i developers window (console) about calendar at all…

@aquaman after debugging, the problem is the file created by fb2ics has linux line ends (\n), but the code is looking for windows line ends (\r\n)

once I edited and saved with windows line ends it works

you could use unix2dos on it to convert the line ends

I have opened an issue and submitted a pull request to the ical parser github project for this

Ahh.
Thank you!
I have tried unix2dos with newline option, but no luck yet. Seems that there are no changes in the file after running the command. Propably need some more help from google ;-)
But thank you for your help so far :-)

@aquaman you shouldn’t need to specify any options…

just

unix2dos filename 

it will convert in place

or -ascii convert only line breaks (default)

unix2dos -ascii filename

[aquaman]

Yes…
Done that…
Filesize is exactly same, however file date/time has been changed…

@aquaman worked for me in both directions, no parm specified…

odroid@odroid:~/MagicMirror/modules/default/calendar$ unix2dos birthdays.ics
unix2dos: converting file birthdays.ics to DOS format...

and

odroid@odroid:~/MagicMirror/modules/default/calendar$ dos2unix birthdays.ics
dos2unix: converting file birthdays.ics to Unix format...

i then used Notepad++ to search for \r\n (windows) or \n (unix) linebreaks
found as expected

[aquaman]

Hmm… Starting to get embarrased ;-)

Can i provide you a ip an password on pm to log on?
