MMM-CalendarExt3

Lilleberg

I have an issue trying to show events from Googles shared family calendar. I have several Google calendars that shows perfectly in the CalendarExt3 module. But to show events from the shared family calendar has been quite an issue.
I found out that I had to install the MMM-GoogleCalendar. In this module I manage to show the events from the shared calendar. But they won´t show up in the CalendarExt3 module.

I found this code (https://github.com/MMRIZE/MMM-CalendarExt3/wiki/Compatible-with-randomBrainstormer-MMM-GoogleCalendar) that should resolve it, but when i paste this code at the end of the config of the CalendarExt3 module. No events show up. Even the events that allready shows from the other Google Calendars.

I have the default calendar module to fetch the events from all of my Google Calendars, and the the GoogleCalendar module to fetch the shared calendar. I tried removing the default calendar module from the config file, and with just one calendar in the GoogleCalendar module. But no result.

It shows just fine in the GoogleCalendar module, so it seems to be a problem to convert the events from the GoogleCalendar module to the CalendarExt3 module.

@Lilleberg ext3 gets it’s events from another calendar module. either the default calendar or another.

so if you use MMM-GoogleCalendar then it has the calendar url.

Lilleberg

@sdetweil Not sure if I understod you here. What do you mean with the last sentence?

sdetweil

@Lilleberg typo, calendar url

MMRIZE

@Lilleberg Show us your config.

Lilleberg

Here is my config- I have replaced the calendar urls under as I dont want to show them to the world.

@Lilleberg
Check broadcastEvents:true in your MMM-GoogleCalendar’s config. Unlike the original calendar module, MMM-GoogleCalendar has this value as false by default.

Lilleberg

@MMRIZE Tried adding this to the config, but still no result. The module broadcasts the events, but they wont show in the Ext3 module. Se attached image. I have removed the other calendars from the config, and only show the events from the Google Calendar module.

MMRIZE

@Lilleberg If possible, can you share the copy of your calendar? (And the final config file also) (eouia0819@gmail.com)
Without the real data I couldn’t catch what really happened in yours.

@MMRIZE I’m sending you an e-mail

@MMRIZE Hi Im also having the exact same issue as @Lilleberg , I have however seen glimpses of this working as intended but it seems to be on a whim, either it restarts and works and then not again untill a further reboot or it just wont. I find it weird that using MMM-CalendarExt3Journal works perfect every time with similar settings. Any ideas on what may be going on? Weird thing is leaving the MMM running all the sudden it works like 20-30min later, so im wondering if theres some weirdness with how the data comes in from the GoogleCalendar module
Heres my config for refrence:

{
    		module: 'MMM-GoogleCalendar',
   			header: "My Google Private Cal",
  			position: "upper_third",
			hiddenOnStartup: true,
 			config: {
				broadcastEvents: true,
				broadcastPastEvents: true,
				calendars: [
						{
							symbol: "calendar-week",
							calendarID: "***",
							name: "1_cal", // <= RECOMMENDED to assign name
							color: "yellow" // <= RECOMMENDED to assign color
						},
						{
							symbol: "calendar-week",
							calendarID: "***",
							name: "2_cal", // <= RECOMMENDED to assign name
							color: "red" // <= RECOMMENDED to assign color
						},
						{
							symbol: "calendar-week",
							calendarID: "en.canadian#holiday@group.v.calendar.google.com",
							name: "holiday_cal", // <= RECOMMENDED to assign name
							color: "green" // <= RECOMMENDED to assign color
						},
						
				],
			}

					if (e.start?.dateTime) {

					} else if (e.start?.date) {
				  		e.startDate = new Date(`${e.start.date}T00:00:00`).valueOf()
					}

Usually, your symptom happens by insufficient waitFetch. Give it more. (By default it would be 5_000 ms. Give it more like 10_000)

Had an issue with my monitor so I took that opportunity to reload Pi OS and MM. Unfortunately, I goofed and flashed over my config and css backups. So I’m starting fresh.

That went fine but I cannot figure out why my calendar is not loading. My MM loads in Midori, I get my date/time in the upper left but the rest of the page is blank, no config warnings or empty boxes, just a completely black page. Config check shows no issues. Can someone look at my config.js real quick and see if I’m missing something? I have not touched any other files at this point, I was just trying to get the calendar to load before I start really customizing.

let config = {
        address: "localhost",   // Address to listen on, can be:
                                                        // - "localhost", "127.0.0.1", "::1" to listen on loopback interface
                                                        // - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
                                                        // - "0.0.0.0", "::" to listen on any interface
                                                        // Default, when address config is left out or empty, is "localhost"
        port: 8080,
        basePath: "/",  // The URL path where MagicMirror² is hosted. If you are using a Reverse proxy
                                                                        // you must set the sub path here. basePath must end with a /
        ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1"],  // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
                                                                        // or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
                                                                        // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],

you can disable a module by adding

you can also comment out the position

this would be how you use the default calendar with Ext3…

CX3* series may not work on MIDORI, sorry. It’s too old browser, doesn’t support advanced modern JavaScript technologies.

Thanks, just made that change, found a couple more that needed attention. I also checked my history in this thread, I’ve posted my config before asking other questions so I was able to borrow some lines. Getting close now.

I had been using it with Midori until just a few days ago when I decided to reload. It wasn’t fast or always the best, but I’m using a Pi zero W so limited on browsers right now. I’ll be picking up a Pi 3 or 4 soon then I’ll do this all over again.

Unsure why, but I keep getting this error message.

Is anyone able to assist if possible please?

Hello together,
i have configured 8 calendars in the default calendar module. Three of them are from “i.cal.to” and five are my public iCloudcalendars.

The default calendar app is loading them without errors, but MMM-CalendarExt3 has problems to view the iCloud entries.

The mm-error.log shows:

I have increased the waitFetch, but it didn’t help.

		{
			module: "MMM-CalendarExt3",
			position: "middle_center",
			waitFetch: 32000,
			disabled: false,
		},

Can someone help me?
