MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda questions.

Hi,

Just setup this module and have some questions.

Temps shown by each day are in Celsius. How can I change them to Fahrenheit? I see something about a Payload on the github page but don’t know what I’m supposed to do with that information. It’d be nice if there was simply a Metric/Imperial or Celsius/Fahrenheit flag in the Config section.
How can I hide the description and location of all the events? I see something in the Custom CSS section that mentions that. Do I need to put that in my custom.css? Curious why there isn’t just a flag for showDescription: False or something like that.
Not all of my calendars are showing. In the main Calendar module, I have 6 calendars. I gave them all a name and added them to the calendarSet section. If I just start with my calendar, the events show up fine. If I then add in my wife’s calendar, her events don’t show up. (They show in the default calendar, just not this one). If I then add in another calendar, then I don’t get any events at all. It’s just really weird. Do I need to do something to let the default Calendar load first, and then load this one? Are the events not showing up because it loaded too quickly and the default calendar hadn’t gotten all its data yet? Just guessing…

That’s all so far.

Thanks!

1.
That’s an issue with the Weather module. Sometimes, the weather module sends incorrect units in the broadcasting notification, which is different from the settings used for screen display. I don’t know why it happens, but you may need to ask the MM developers. Anyway, that example you read is created for such cases in my favour. The responsibility for this issue does not lie with this module.

.CX3A .event .description,
.CX3A .event .location {
  display: none;
}

Put into your Custom.css, .
Why is it not served as a config value? Sorry, it’s my design.
Presentation and logic should be separated. Maybe showDescription would be useful, but how about these? showEventTime, showDayWeatherIcon, showDayWeatherTempMax, showDayWeatherTempMin, … Maybe those also are useful. But I cannot prepare all the configurable values for all the things. This module still has too many options.
But just for the presentation, only CSS overriding could solve many things without much code and for various cases.

3 . The default calendar modules spit out events when each calendar is fetched. The problem is, there is no way to know all the calendars are fetched. So, if your calendars are too many and big, some calendars may need time to finish fetching; that calendar will not be rendered at the first cycle of this module’s refreshing. From next cycle(I hope), it will be shown. So, wait to be refreshed. (default refreshInterval is 30 minutes)

Alternatively, you can use waitFetch to delay the rendering of the first cycle. By providing a sufficient value, you can ensure that the parsing of calendars is completed within that time. Since the duration of parsing for each calendar is unknown, it may require a considerable amount of time. Perhaps around 30 seconds should be sufficient, although it depends on the specific calendars being parsed.
Default waitFetch is set as 5000 ms,

Thanks for the info.

If I want to use your weatherPayload, to go from C to F, where would I put that code? I can’t use C so it’s either try to convert it, or turn it off I guess.
Thanks. That CSS worked great.
I added waitFetch 30000 and I did get all of my calendars.

Thanks!

Is there a way to hide the Current Week column from the mini-calendar?

HI.
Maybe there’s some CSS to fix this, but when I changed the calendar to use Sunday as the first day of the week (firstDayOfWeek: 0), it moved the days over, but didn’t move the colors. Saturday should be Blue and Sunday should be Red. In my calendar, the color of the days inside the calendar are correct. However, the colors of the headings are not. Is there a way to fix that?

Thanks.

Sorry, that is a known bug which will be fixed on next update. (I think it could be in 24H)

Just wait a day. (It could be fixed by CSS tweak, but you need to restore it again after update…)

@MMRIZE thanks for the info. I don’t even know how modules get updated or how I know when a module needs to be updated. Do I need to subscribe to the GitHub page or can I turn on auto updates or anything like that?
