MMM-Calendar always shows 23:59 if showEndTime: True

@SwissChemist your whole day event starts on one day, and ends on another

DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20201023
DTSTAMP:20201001T205900Z
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20201022

make up your mind…lol

I changed all the whole day DTEND to the same date as the DTSTART

@SwissChemist if it were easy!!!

the rule processor has a bug w timezones
and apparently with multiple whole day events, and with dst/std adjustment

and the calendar parser is not ours, and the rule processor is not ours,

and we are split into get dates to show and show dates… show dates(calendar.js) doesn’t know anything about the cal entry. it’s just gets a list of start and end times, in utc time

sdetweil

I just uploaded another calendarfetcher.js to dropbox which corrects the timezone adjustment for daylight/std switch

I was using the local system time instead of the calendar event start time to compare offsets with the rule created time

I like how it behaves now… we are both currently on DST, you switch the daylight 1st (Oct 25), and the events when system is on my timezone, change, and then we change later to daylight (Nov 1), and then we are back on the same adjustment again and the event times adjust again correctly…

Wow, that looks great! Thanks very much for your endurance!

There is only that persistent ‘3-weekly whole day’ problem. It’s still one day too late. Most probably that’s so difficult, as it is a user defined interval, something strange seems to bring the parser to a wrong date…
For testing, I have added a 3-daily event. This shows correct start/end…

But the rest is great! Thanks very much!!!

@SwissChemist check the end date in your cal entry it was set for the next day.

2 -day event

@sdetweil
All whole day events start at the right day and end one day later. There is no difference in the calendar file, whether it is a weekly, 2-weekly or 3-weekly event.
That’s why I do not understand, why weeklies and 2-weeklies are shown correctly and the 3-weekly is shown one day too late…

sdetweil

@SwissChemist but, whole day events are defined as starting and ending on the SAME day.

sdetweil

@SwissChemist yeh, that 3-weekly whole day event seems to cause a problem in the rule handler…

for THAT rule, it returns the repeating day as the 1st of the 2, (the last of the 2 for the others)
but if u take off the ;BYDAY=TH
is works properly… (and gives the thrusday date)

so, some bug in the rrule module… (not our code)

that is also the only weekly whole day rule you have which has a ByDay set.

@sdetweil
As I wondered if the format of an 3-weekly event in ical has an issue, I set up a 3-weekly event in Google calendar and compared the files:

BEGIN:VEVENT
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20201005
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20201006
RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=3;BYDAY=MO
DTSTAMP:20201005T195008Z

STATUS:CONFIRMED
SUMMARY:3-weekly whole day test
TRANSP:OPAQUE
END:VEVENT

Event has been set to 5th of October and DTEND is also one day later than DTSTART for a whole-day-event and it also shows a BYDAY, that means it’s absolutely identical to the ical file…
