MMM-CalendarExt2

BKeyport

@pkup10 way underconfigured. Compare to mine, stripped down to it’s bare minimum.

	{
			module: "MMM-CalendarExt2", // https://github.com/MMM-CalendarExt2/MMM-CalendarExt2
			config: {
				calendars : [
					{
						url: "<URL>",
						name: "Main Calendar",
					},
				],
				views: [
					{
						mode: "daily",
						position: "top_right",
						calendars: ["Main Calendar"],				
					},
				],
				scenes: [
					{
						name: "DEFAULT",
					},
				],
			},
		},

@bkeyport actually, that might be @pkup10 's problem: he didn’t put a position item in his config. MM won’t display it without knowing where to display it.

@wenike that module doesn’t use the typical display approach. position is not used

BKeyport

@wenike Take a look at my barebones config above. You’ll notice the position is part of the view config not the main part. This module creates virtual positions after the main stuff is done.

Hi,

is there a way to setup a sliding week (sliding 7 days) in the calendar, means always show the actual day as the first day and then e.g. 7 days into the future ?
Currently I’m showing two weeks, but on Sundays the first week shows only gone events and is not very helpful. I rather would like to save the space for the first week by just showing only 7 days in the future. Unfortunately I was not able to figure this out by myself :crying_face: .

Many thanks for the great addon

@askedal
Weeks views purpose is that. Use Daily view with horizontal layout.

@askedal
And the start day of week respects your locale. So in your country, if the week starts from Monday, adjust your locale to it.

I tried the daily view, but then saturday and sunday were missing, it showed only the working days (maybe there were no events ?)

@askedal
I think you are missing some options;
They might be slotCount and fromNow.
slotCount in daily view points How many days will appear
fromNow in daily view points From which day the view begins.

So if you set daily view like this;

fromNow: -1,
slotCount: 5

It will show 5 days schedules from yesterday.

I think you probably want 7 days schedule from today. In that case, this will work; (You may need more options and CSS modifying to beautify the look of view)

{
  name: "VIEW1",
  mode: "daily",
  title: "My Schedule",
  position: "bottom_bar",
  type: "row",
  slotCount: 7,
  fromNow: 0,
  useEventTimeRelative: true,
},

Anyway, I need to point this; The MMM-CalendarExt2 is going to die because of its unusual complexity to use and heavy dependencies of obsoleted legacy node modules. I already have archived it. I wish I can release Ext3 in near future to solve those problems.
