sdetweil

@WallysWellies do you have that full VEVENT so i can look at its processing in both places as i work on both

WallysWellies

@sdetweil Here is a problematic event:

BEGIN:VEVENT
DESCRIPTION:\n
RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;UNTIL=20250504T230000Z;INTERVAL=1;BYMONTHDAY=5;BYMONTH=5

Thanks for taking a look.

@WallysWellies thanks, forgot to ask what timezone you are in

WallysWellies

@sdetweil I’m in the UK. Since it’s British summer time I don’t know if that means I’m UTC+1 or something else… GMT, BST… Stupid changing clocks!

sdetweil

@WallysWellies this fix sets the rrule:until to start of day+1 day for fullday events (tested in LA, Chicago, London and Sydney timezones)

add three lines
modules/default/calendarcalendarfetcherutils.js

					event.start = rule.options.dtstart;  // old code line 294
                                        // insert these three lines
					if((rule.options.until != undefined) && CalendarFetcherUtils.isFullDayEvent(event)){
						Log.debug("fixup rrule until")
						rule.options.until = new Date(new Date(moment(rule.options.until).startOf("day").add(1,"day")).getTime())
					}

					Log.debug("fix rrule start=", rule.options.dtstart); // old code line 301

@sdetweil Thank you - that has fixed my upcoming calendar event 👍

sdetweil

@WallysWellies cool, i will submit as a change for next release

sdetweil

@WallysWellies you will need to use my upgrade script and reply no to keeping the changed files
see https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

note upgrade is a two part process
test, do nothing (highlight exposed files, if any)
do upgrade

sdetweil

@WallysWellies I opened issue 3781
https://github.com/MagicMirrorOrg/MagicMirror/issues/3781
and pushed the fix and testcase for next release

WallysWellies

@sdetweil Thank you!
