default-calendar recurring events aren't being adjusted for the timezone.

jeffeb3

I bet this is a quick one, since it looks like there are some calendar fixes that @sdetweil pointed some people to. I couldn’t find them.

I am just getting started and I have a google calendar, and I’ve added some events. Then I switched some of the events to recurring, and they are categorized at the wrong time/days.

The clock display is correct (so I think I have the timezone right). The single events are showing up in the right places. But the recurring events are off by 6 hours (I live in Denver, -6).

I took a peek at the ical from google calendar. This event is displayed at the right time:

It should be displayed at 2:01pm, and it is.

BEGIN:VEVENT

This one is wrong. It should be at 2:00pm, and it’s showing up at 8am.

BEGIN:VEVENT
DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20201001T140000
DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20201001T150000

I’m assuming the trouble is that this isn’t being read correctly:

DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20201001T140000
DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20201001T150000

But this is:

DTSTART:20201001T200100Z
DTEND:20201001T203100Z

@jeffeb3 what version? a bunch of fixes just went in today for calendar timezones

i removed the sticky notes for version 2.12

jeffeb3

It is a docker image from a few days ago. I built so many in the last 3 days I can’t remember if I picked :stable or :latest. I can try to pull the latest docker image.

bastilimbach/docker-magicmirror "./docker-entrypoi..." 22 hours ago

I’m not in a rush. If this stuff is just flowing through, I can wait a day or two, pull, and report back.

@jeffeb3 I don’t know if docker has been updated TODAY (as release came out this morning)

    Merge pull request #2064 from MichMich/develop

    Release 2.12.0

This is the git log from inside the container, in /opt/magic_mirror, which I assume means I have 2.12.0.

sdetweil

@jeffeb3 yep

jeffeb3

The docker container isn’t updated yet (not a surprise) but I did just pull 2.13.0 and ran npm install, then restarted the container and it is displaying those in the right timezone now.

Thank you for the help. Great forums here. That’s only possible with great contributors.

@jeffeb3 said in default-calendar recurring events aren't being adjusted for the timezone.:

and it is displaying those in the right timezone now.

awesome… thanks so much for the extra effort to test…
