Absolute date

deadherring

Anyone? Does anyone have absolute date working as I describe? Can someone post the relevant portion of their config file so I can see what you’ve done?

Thanks.

Any word on this? I’m using a 7" raspberry pi display and that ‘Tomorrow at 10:00 AM’ eats up a lot of real estate.

Here’s my config:

            {
                    module: 'calendar',
                    header: 'My Calendar',
                    position: 'top_right',
                    config: {
                      calendars: [
                        {
                          symbol: 'calendar-check-o ',
                          url: '[redacted]'
                        }
                      ],
                      maximumEntries: 10,
                      maxTitleLength: 12,
                      titleReplace: {'Appointment':'Appt'},
                      displaySymbol: false,
                      timeFormat: 'relative'
                    }
            },

… and by
{
timeFormat: ‘relative’
}

I mean
{
timeFormat: ‘absolute’
}
ugh.

Turns out my problem came down mostly to not really understanding the difference between ‘absolute’ and ‘relative’… I fixed my problem by modifying the code in calendar.js slightly.

 // Otherwise just say 'Today/Tomorrow at such-n-such time'
 timeWrapper.innerHTML = moment(event.startDate, "x").calendar(null, {
                                                        sameDay: 'H:mm',
                                                        nextDay: '[Tomorrow] H:mm',
                                                        nextWeek: 'dddd',
                                                        lastDay: '[Yesterday]',
                                                        lastWeek: '[Last] dddd',
                                                        sameElse: 'DD/MM/YYYY'
                                                    });

I sort of hijacked this thread. Sorry (but I think my solution might help out the OP ).

@mjtice What lines did you implement that code on?

@mjtice Thanks man, that solved my problem too. Except I added NextWeek: ‘dddd DD/MM/YYYY’

Cheers!

@daikaiju it’s on line 245 in the current release. Keep in mind that if you upgrade you’ll lose those changes (as I did exactly 2 days after I made that post…).
