Is it at all possible to alter the grid to only divide the screen into 5 sections? I was able to alter code to only show m-f, but the sat and sun sections are still there. Just completely blank. For the life of me I can’t figure out where in the code it sets this part up.

Anyway,
For the firstDayOfWeek: 1 (Week starts from Monday), It could be achieved like below;

.CX3 .weekGrid {
  grid-template-columns: repeat(5, [cell-start] 1fr [cell-end]) 0fr 0fr;
}

.CX3 .weekday.weekday_6,
.CX3 .weekday.weekday_0 {
  display: none;
}

.CX3 .cell.weekday_6,
.CX3 .cell.weekday_0 {
  display: none;
}

This will work.

But for the firstDayOfWeek:0 or another case, .weekGrid should be adjusted more heavily. And not sure side-effects.

@MMRIZE I wanna do things a little different (of course) - what I’d like is to have CX3 display the calendar symbol only. No title, preferably horizontally. I can get the title out of the way, but the rest of it I’m not quite sure how - for some reason I’m having a hard time deconstructing how you build.

Thanks!

Is this what you want?

What a coincidence.
Yesterday, a user asked me how to manipulate day-cell and remove events together at the same time. It is ideally the same with your purpose.

To reach your goal; 1) extracting an icon from an event and 2) putting it into the daycell would be needed.
However, manipulateDayCell is executed after all events processes are done, so it cannot be achieved with CX3 alone. With manipulateDayCell, you can extract icons and inject them into the daycell, but you cannot remove original events together easily.

With MMM-ModuleMonkeyPatch, you can remove events after rendering (before revealing)

/* In MMM-CalendarExt3 config */
  manipulateDateCell: (cellDom, events) => {
    let body = cellDom.querySelector('.cellBody')
    Array.from(events).forEach((e) => {
      if (Array.isArray(e.symbol) && e.symbol.length > 0) {
        let icon = document.createElement('span') 
        icon.className = e.symbol
        body.appendChild(icon)
        icon.style.color = e.color
      }
      
    })
  },
  maxEventLines: 1,

/* MMM-ModuleMonkeyPatch */
{
  module: "MMM-ModuleMonkeyPatch",
  config: {
    patches: [
      {
        module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
        method: "getDom",
        patch: function (original, args) {
          let dom = original(args)
          let target = Array.from(dom.querySelectorAll('.event')) || []
          target.forEach((e) => {
            e.style.display = 'none'
          })
          return dom
        }
      }
    ]
  }
},

These codes are just concept-proof. There are many holes like overflowed events, order of events, … I bet you can improve codes for your purpose.

@MMRIZE that would be perfect, yes.

[BKeyport]

@MMRIZE actually, I don’t need to extract - the symbols are set by default Calendar app, so I’d be using “useSymbol:True” to get them only.

I am having trouble integrating MMM-CalendarExt3 with MMM-GoogleCalendar.
I’m not sure what else is required other than adding a “name” to the Google Calendar and then listing that in the “calendarSet” parameter in CalendarExt3.

Can anyone point out what I am missing?

Here is my config:

{
            module: 'MMM-GoogleCalendar',
            header: "Family Calendar",
            position: "top_left",
            config: {
                maximumEntries: 4,
                broadcastPastEvents: true,
                calendars: [
                  {
                    symbol: "calendar-week",
                    calendarID: "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX@group.calendar.google.com",
                    name: 'famCal',
                  },
                ],
            }
        },
        {
            module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
            position: "bottom_bar",
            title: "Family Calendar",
            config: {
                mode: "week",
                instanceId: "basicCalendar",
                calendarSet: ['famCal'],
            }
        },

I see the List view from MMM-GoogleCalendar, but I just get a blank calendar from MMM-CalendarExt3

Read this. https://github.com/MMRIZE/MMM-CalendarExt3#compatible-with-randombrainstormermmm-googlecalendar

By the way, this is a pure question.
Google Calendar provides iCAL format(.ics), so the default calendar module can also parse it. Why people use MMM-GoogleCalendar instead of the default calendar? Is there any special thing?
I ask this because one of the most frequently asked issues is how to use with MMM-GoogleCalendar.
