@MyMirror go to the module folder and do
git pull
to get underlined header just add the header to the config
{ module: "birthdaylist", position:'top_left', header:"birthday list header", config: { language: "en", dimmEntries:true, // true: dims entries and the associated // symbol when the date has expired. // false: dont display entries and the associated // symbol when the date has expired. initialLoadDelay: 0, // How many seconds to wait on a fresh start up. // This is to prevent collision with all other modules also // loading all at the same time. This only happens once, // when the mirror first starts up. updateDelay: 5, // How many seconds after midnight before a refresh // This is to prevent collision with other // modules refreshing at the same time. currentMonthOnly: false, // will show birthdays for the current month only if true maxEntries: 0, // maximum entries to show, default is all dateFormat: '', // date format for birthday (default is none), could be 'Do' for 'Sep 12th' ageFormat:'', // some format string for the persons age, '[ n ]' n will be replace by age value debug:false } }for year end wrap around, set
currentMonthOnly:false,

{ module: "birthdaylist", position:'top_left', header:"birthday list header", config: { language: "en", dimmEntries:true, // true: dims entries and the associated // symbol when the date has expired. // false: dont display entries and the associated // symbol when the date has expired. initialLoadDelay: 0, // How many seconds to wait on a fresh start up. // This is to prevent collision with all other modules also // loading all at the same time. This only happens once, // when the mirror first starts up. updateDelay: 5, // How many seconds after midnight before a refresh // This is to prevent collision with other // modules refreshing at the same time. currentMonthOnly: false, // will show birthdays for the current month only if true maxEntries: 10, // maximum entries to show, default is all dateFormat: '', // date format for birthday (default is none), could be 'Do' for 'Sep 12th' ageFormat:'', // some format string for the persons age, '[ n ]' n will be replace by age value debug:false } }and I see 5 entries
I added the time to the screen shot to show its new
can u paste your exact config?
-
Sure …
{ module: "birthdaylist", position:'top_left', header:"Geburtstage", config: { language: "de", dimmEntries: false, // true: dims entries and the associated // symbol when the date has expired. // false: dont display entries and the associated // symbol when the date has expired. initialLoadDelay: 10, // How many seconds to wait on a fresh start up. // This is to prevent collision with all other modules also // loading all at the same time. This only happens once, // when the mirror first starts up. updateDelay: 5, // How many seconds after midnight before a refresh // This is to prevent collision with other // modules refreshing at the same time. currentMonthOnly: false, // will show birthdays for the current month only if true maxEntries: 10, // maximum entries to show, default is all dateFormat: '', // date format for birthday (default is none), could be 'Do' for 'Sep 12th' ageFormat:'', // some format string for the persons age, '[ n ]' n will be replace by age value debug:false } }, 10 maxEntries just for the test, if this works, i would go to 4. On my screen I get this:  So ... only 3 entries and i took your example BR Jens -
@MyMirror you have to use the 3rd icon from the right above the editor to include images
-
@sdetweil
Sorry :flushed_face:
-
I see 4 entries, u have dimmEntries: false, so the bd on the dec 19th doesn’t show…
did u change the csv?
-
@MyMirror I added Suzie to the new bdl.csv but it was part of the git pull …
birth, name 15/01/1987,suzie 12/05/1951, Sam -
@sdetweil
No, i took your example after getting no output of mine.
So the only changes are in the config regarding the currentMonthOnly and the max Entries.
Hmmm :confused_face: -
@MyMirror can u edit the birthdaylist/data/bdl.csv
-
@MyMirror the sample file is in
DD/MM/YYYY format
-
Yes, of course.
What should i try?
Add this:
15/01/1987,suzie
12/05/1951, Sam -
@MyMirror that second line shouldbe there already, do this
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/birthdaylist git checkout data/bdl.csvthen look at the file again
it should start like mine
suzie on the second line -
-
is a blank needed before “Suzie”?
-
@MyMirror correct
the bd on Dec 19th is in the past, and u have
dimmEntries: false
so, past BD’s are not dispplayed
-
@MyMirror said in birthdaylist:
is a blank needed before “Suzie”?
no, I trim off blanks… allow for sloppy editing/pasting
all entries have to have the same date format
-
@MyMirror the csv file format is
the header row,
birth , nameand then
rows for each personbirthday , namethe birthday format can be in whatever format you like
MM/DD/YYYY
DD/MM/YYYY
YYYY/DD/MM
YYYY/MM/DDusing whatever separator you choose
the layout and separator have to be the same for all birthday rows
