MMM-CalDAV

@MMRIZE Thank you for your help, but I managed to figure out getting baikal to generate the ics file, so I don’t need this module anymore.

Thanks anyway

Update 2.1.0

Birthday calendar enabled. (CardDAV implementation)
Some code refactoring.
calendars: [], is changed to targets: []. you have to reconfigure your config.js

Now you can get Birthdays calendar from iCloud or Google Contacts. (Of course, other CardDAV supported contacts services.)

Hello I’m trying to sync my synology calendar to the MagicMirror calendar with the MMM_CalDAV module. Sadly it’s not working and I don’t know why. I tried different settings and everything I could find online.

My config.js (without the standard stuff) looks like this:

{
  module: "MMM-CalDAV", 
  config: {
    timeRangeStart: -30,
    servers: [
      { 
        envPrefix: "SYOLOGY_", 
        serverUrl: "http://192.168.xxx/caldav/",
        targets: ["family" ], 
  },
},
},


{
  module: "calendar",
  position: "top_left",
  config: {
    servers: [
      {
        symbol: "calendar-check",
        url: "http://localhost:8080/CALDAV/SYNOLOGY_family.ics",
        auth: { 
          user: 'username1',
          pass: 'password1', 
          method: 'basic'
        }
      },

The .env looks like this:

CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME=
CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME=

### For SYNOLOGY
SYNOLOGY_username=username1
SYNOLOGY_password=password1

Do you have any idea what I could try to do, to sync it?

Thank you

@Tiller can you show any of the output from
npm start

if using pm2 to autolaunch, then

pm2 logs --lines=xxxx

xxxx is the number of the most recent lines in the logs, default 15

note that the log data will have full urls for calendar , so this could expose info

MMRIZE

@Tiller said in MMM-CalDAV:

CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME=
CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME=

For SYNOLOGY

SYNOLOGY_username=username1
SYNOLOGY_password=password1

I think you may have confusing the username and password for the server and the module.

SYNOLOGY_username=username1
SYNOLOGY_password=password1

This is for your Synology Caldav Server, usually it is your account id/password to login Synology Server (Or Synology calendar account)

CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME=username2
CALDAV_SERVICE_PASSWORD=password2

This is a different thing. It is used for your MM calendar module. This module provide a secure calendar ics host by itself with this auth information. You should need to set your calendar config like this;

// default calendar module.
{
  module: "calendar",
  position: "top_left",
  config: {
    calendars: [
      {
        symbol: "calendar-check",
        url: "http://localhost:8080/CALDAV/SYNOLOGY_Family.ics",
        auth: { // REQUIRED
          user: 'username2', // <= used here (CALDAV_SERVICE_USERNAME)
          pass: 'password2', // <= used here (CALDAV_SERVICE_PASSWORD)
          method: 'basic'
        }
      },
...

Thank you for your quick reply.

@sdetweil I’m not using pm2 at the moment, but I could try to do it and check the logs.

@MMRIZE sorry, my bad. I changed the password for the post, it’s correct in my .env but not working.

I’m not exactly sure about the Synology url
synology.com says I should use
http://192.168.x.x:5000/caldav
and than log in with my username and password

But an older link is (seems there was an update)
http://192.168.x.x:5000/caldav/username/ejialfjl/

If I’m using the last one in the browser, it is downloading an .ics file.

But it’s not working with both urls.

Maybe I should try to reinstall everything?

sdetweil

@Tiller if you are not using pm2 then the errors would be shown where you do npm start

sdetweil

@Tiller no reinstall

can you show us the new url(#2) in config.js,
assume you are still using the env variables

MMRIZE

@Tiller
CalDAV is different to general ics hosting.

Usually, the URL of Synology CalDAV accessing would be;

https://IP_OR_URL:5001/caldav/
http://IP_OR_URL:5000/caldav/

Anyway, there would be some log to diagnosis. Can you show the frontend and backend logs?

Hi,

i´ve got the same problem. I´m completly new to magicmirror but the integration of my Synology CalDAV should be the main part of it.

i´ve tried several combinations and addresses but no one worked for me.

maybe its possible to get a “step - by - step” Tutorial.

hopefully you can help :)
