birthdaylist - discontinued ?

sdetweil

@rkorell you are using the analog clock, not digital

this for digital

displaySeconds	Display seconds.

Possible values: true or false
Default value: true

and I didn’t see this change

sendNotifications	Enable notifications for elapsed time. Used to be always done send prio to v2.23

Possible values: true, or false
Default value: false

rkorell

@sdetweil Yeah…
You’re right.
I’ve set this - my type of clock is set to “both” because I like sunset and day of week information.

This causes an error in your module…

birthdaylist.js:398 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'startsWith')
    at Class.getBD_DAY_from_Date (birthdaylist.js:398:9)
    at Class.getDom (birthdaylist.js:462:154)
    at main.js:132:35

    at Class.socketNotificationReceived (birthdaylist.js:328:9)
    at module.js:240:9
    at Socket.<anonymous> (socketclient.js:32:4)

Not sure if this corresponds with the displaySeconds parameter but seen this error first time…

No, obviously NOT…
I’ve now added “sendNotifications: true” to config.
Mirror reloads and your module starts without this error message.

sdetweil

@rkorell can i see your birthdaylist config

and the date portion of one birthday from the list, which order the date info is in

and this error is trying to check if tye month part starts w a 0
and i figure out which date separator you used
/, or :, or just not ,
and then i split the date with the separator i discovered, they all HAVE to be the same separator and order

rkorell

@sdetweil yes, for sure

Ahh…
in the code listing it shows up a difference …
“10/6/95, 2. Hochzeitstag”
with an additional space and a dot…
is this a problem?
I can change the taxt and delete space if nacessary (althoug I mean I’ve read that you are truncing entries …
But the dot could be eliminated if useful.

rkorell

interesting enough the error shows up first time as I reported - the list is always the same - literally unchanged until first day of installation…

sdetweil

@rkorell nvm i see it… let me look at it

sdetweil

@rkorell I don’t see the error… can you show me the bdlist config

also, that line of code would only happen is there WAS a birthday to display
and your list doesn’t have one for tomorrow or later (in this month)
are for next month…

still don’t see the error…
my code strips off the extra leading space on the name field.

rkorell

@sdetweil indeed - should have done this at the begin, sorry:

// Geburtstagsliste 
// Gelesen wird: ~/MagicMirror/modules/birthdaylist/data/bdl.csv

		{ 
	        
	        module: "birthdaylist",
	        disabled: false,
	        position:'top_right',  
	        config: {
						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: 0, // How many seconds to wait on a fresh start up.
						updateDelay: 5,      // How many seconds after midnight before a refresh
						currentMonthOnly: false,  // will show birthdays for the current month only if true
						maxEntries: 3,	     // 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
						withMonth: true ,    // then true, add the month display as part of the date field, 
						debug:true,
	                }
		},
