Trouble with calendar.js

[sdetweil]

@mmm-kludo again, you haven’t provided the config.js section for the calendar.

I want to see the exact text

[MMM-kludo]

@sdetweil I have not changed anything, the exact text is:

                {
                        module: "calendar",
                        header: "US Holidays",
                        position: "top_left",
                        config: {
                                calendars: [
                                        {
                                                symbol: "calendar-check",
                                                url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics"
                                        }
                                ]
                        }
                },

and on the mirror I see this:

Christmas           Saturday at 00:00
New Year's Day                Jan 1st

but I would like, for example, this:

Help me                        Today
Christmas                   Tomorrow
New Year's Day             in 5 Days

@mmm-kludo ok, you say timeFormat: doesn’t work but u haven’t specified it in the config

ALL config for ANY module goes in config.js

                {
                        module: "calendar",
                        header: "US Holidays",
                        position: "top_left",
                        config: {
                               timeFormat: "relative",
                               ...  whatever other parms
                                calendars: [
                                        {
                                                symbol: "calendar-check",
                                                url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar/ics/76/US_Holidays.ics"
                                        }
                                ]
                        }
                },

you NEVER change the source code itself…

config info for cal
https://docs.magicmirror.builders/modules/calendar.html

note the getRelative parm …

calendar has too many options (in my opinion),

[MMM-kludo]

@sdetweil Thank you for your help. I have changed the value as you recommended. According to my understanding, this setting is also the default value. However, my display has not changed.

[sdetweil]

@mmm-kludo

note the getRelative parm …

how far in front of the event does the thing change to relative? in HOURS

xmas is 4 DAYS (48 hours), default is 6 (HOURS)

[MMM-kludo]

@sdetweil When I do this, the appointments for the 2 next days are displayed as desired. Previously it was possible that all appointments were displayed in this form. This now seems to no longer work.

Thanks again for your support, I had a wrong thinking due to my simpler previous version.

[MMM-kludo]

@sdetweil I was wrong, it still does not work as before. I am always shown absolute times (e.g. Sunday, Monday, …) and no relative ones (e.g. Today, Tomorrow, …).

                {
                        module: "calendar",
                        header: "Termine",
                        position: "top_left",
                        config: {
                                timeFormat: "relative",
                                getRelative: 48,
                                nextDaysRelative: true,
                                hideTime: true,
                                calendars: [
                                        {
                                                symbol: "calendar-check",

@mmm-kludo can u compare the defaults section of your old calendar.js with the current one?

I assume u made changes to it originally

[MMM-kludo]

@sdetweil I compared the two versions (current and spring 2020) with NotePadd++ Compare and found no significant differences in the default section. Of course, the newer version has additional fields due to functional enhancements (limitDays, hideTime, customEvents).

Significant differences in the code can be seen in the middle of the code between lines 350 and 500. In this area the old version has additional lines which are not included in the current code.
Due to lack of programming knowledge, I do not think that I have made changes in the code.
