Google Calendars Timezone Off-By-One Hour

lksdf978

@sdetweil I am currently running on the develop branch. I did forget to run npm install, but that did not change anything after restarting the mirror again. The weird thing is, not all events are an hour off. What should I look for?

@sdetweil FWIW, deleting and re-creating the event seems to work; hopefully this won’t be a recurring thing when the time changes again. :)

If you still wish to troubleshoot, I’m ready and available.

@lksdf978 did u save the prior event?

I would like to see the info in the ics file ( it’s just text)

I will be away from my system til next sat 14th.

Here is the beginning of the ics (before the first event), and one of the events that are off-by-one:

@lksdf978 great thanks. I think this is the rrrule problem. the fix is waiting to be merged.

sdetweil

@lksdf978 the latest fixes have been merged into the develop branch. you can git pull to refresh them. npm install again to get the latest node-ical update too

put that entry back in an ics file in the calendar module folder to test

lksdf978

My apologies for the late response, but I just pulled down develop, did an npm install, and reloaded MagicMirror. The issue still persists. I even went so far as deleting node_modules and reinstalling just in case. I did check the git log to be sure the changes in node_ical version was present, and it is. Any other ideas?

sdetweil

@lksdf978 still waiting for one fix to be accepted
