Show calendar based on IP Address accessed

[Spinster]

@MMRIZE I understand, Ideally I would like to avoid opening multiple ports and use a common config to serve clients based on their IP. In fact, though DHCP is used by my home server, I have only assigned the IP address to reservations, hence static IP within my home network is not a problem.

Please suggest a simple code to use a specific calendar based on IP address of the client.

I’m out of my test PC, so I can’t show atm. (Maybe tomorrow possible, if you couldn’t success until that time)
You can add custom config attribute map-like object calendarMap in your config.js

module: "calendar",
position: "top_left",
config: {
  calendarMap: {
    "192.168.178.100": ["calendar1", "calendar2"],
    "192.168.178.101": ["calebdar1", "calendar3"],
  },
  calendars: [
    {
      url: " … ",
      name: "calendar1",
    },
…

In calendar.js around line 176, when CALENDAR_EVENTS notification coming, you can filter the payload(array of events) of that notification by checking calendarName of each event is matched to this.config.calendarMap.

Sorry I can’t show the real code now. Maybe some hours later I may be able to. Anyway concept would be like this.

@MMRIZE Great, You have given me an idea, will wait for your code. Please share when possible.

Ah I suddenly remember that getting Internal IP with only JavaScript on client browseris hard.
Hmmm another approach might be needed.

[sdetweil]

@MMRIZE that is why you need the express api call…

I would make a separate module that has ip in div, not shown, but w id

then call in calendar is document.get…
compare, your way or on cal entries
more synchronous…

[MMRIZE]

@sdetweil
Yes. I thought a small module with node_helper that could return clients’ ip as a result of REST api call from calendar module.

[sdetweil]

@MMRIZE and that module calls its own rest call publishes the address in its getDom() result, with id= on div

and then cal module can use synchronous document.getElementsById()

to get that value.

@MMRIZE @Spinster

so the little module is

https://github.com/sdetweil/getip

and it does correctly return the ip address of the client… tested from 4 different systems to the same MM…

see later post for final solution

@sdetweil @MMRIZE

Wow, you are quick, you have given me some homework. Will use your code and get back with the result.

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.

I tried your code, but find that once I include getip module in config.js, I am not seeing any output for calendar. Is this the expected output. Without getip module, I find that client_ip = document.getElementById("getip is returning null.Please advice
