I think it is possible with “manipulateDateCell”. I will show example after my return from a business trip in a few days.

{
  module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
  position: "bottom_bar",
  config: {
    mode: 'month',
    manipulateDateCell: (dom, events) => {
      let date = new Date(+dom.dataset.date)
      if (date.getMonth() == 8 && date.getDate() == 2) { // specific cell by absolute date
        dom.classList.add('specialHoliday')
        dom.style.backgroundColor = 'red'
        // do whatever you want.
      }

      if (events.some(e => e.title.search("Gelber") > -1)){ // specific cell by event
        dom.classList.add('specialEvent')
        dom.style.backgroundColor = 'yellow'
        // do whatever you want.
      }
    }
  }
},

How can I delay the start of the MMM-CalendarExt3 module? I have the default calendar module showing and I can see the 3 calendars load events into it. The problem is CalendarExt3 starts while the calendars are still loading. I changed the refreshInterval to more frequent to deal with that, but really a delay start would be more efficient.

I supposed this would only be a problem while I am troubleshooting.

@nekreg9
There is a configurable option “waitFetch”.
But I doubt your real issue would be that. Because, CX3 starts rendering after one calendar which has at least one event have fetched successfully. (and in a “waitFetch”, no more calendar is fetched)
So if your CX3 starts late, It means your events source provider(usually default calendar module) might have timing issue to fetch calendars(e.g. too frequent fetch cycles or something else)

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!

@BKeyport

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.

[BKeyport]

@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

[MMRIZE]

@XDmToter
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.

[MMRIZE]

@XDmToter
Anyway, I requested PR of MMM-GoogleCalendar to solve this incompatible broadcasting. When @randomBrainstorm adopts the PR, this issue will be solved.

[XDmToter]

@MMRIZE Thank you for your reply. As I understand it, in order to use an ICal URL from Google Calendar, you have to make your calendar Public. Using MMM-GoogleCalendar is Authenticated using an API Token, so your calendar does Not need to be public.

I tried adding the “preProcessor” settings, but I still get a blank calendar. Does this get added to the “config” section, or the “module” section? I put it inside the config array.

        {
            module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
            position: "bottom_bar",
            title: "Family Calendar",
            config: {
                mode: "week",
                instanceId: "basicCalendar",
                calendarSet: ['famCal'],
                preProcessor: (e) => {
                    if (e.start?.dateTime) {
                        e.startDate = new Date(e.start.dateTime).valueOf()
                    } else if (e.start?.date) {
                        e.startDate = new Date(`${e.start.date}T00:00:00`).valueOf()
                    }
 
                    if (e.end?.dateTime) {
                        e.endDate = new Date(e.end.dateTime).valueOf()
                    } else if (e.end?.date) {
                        e.endDate = new Date(`${e.end.date}T00:00:00`).valueOf()
                    }
 
                    e.title = e.summary
                    e.fullDayEvent = (e.start?.date) ? true : false
                    return e
                    }
            }
        }

@XDmToter
Your configuration seems all right unless you may be missing some brackets matching or commas at the end of the continuous module definitions.

In MM screen, Ctrl+Shift+i will open dev console. You may see suspicious error messages if they happen.

[gonzonia]

@XDmToter
There’s a way to get an iCal URL without making it public. I see this in my “Settings and Sharing” section of Google Calendar.

[MMRIZE]

@gonzonia @XDmToter
But anyway, for shared-calendar (e.g. Family calendar), MMM-GoogleCalendar is worthy. (And there would be the possibility to implement a reminder feature also.)

I discussed this issue with @randomBrainstorm, and I can bet the fixed version of MMM-GoogleCalendar will be released soon. At that time, the need for conversion will be gone.

[BKeyport]

@MMRIZE So, I’ve expanded my calendar larger for a DakBoard like setup, and noticed some cosmetic problems, mostly in background highlighting. Can you take a look and see what’s up?

Also, I’d like the icons (using the symbols from calendar) to be row flexed not column flexed.

Thanks.
