MMM-Chores - Manage and keep track of your household Chores

@PierreGode – What does the ‘Chores per Week Estimate’ do?

What is it estimating, and what does it do with the estimate?

@JohnGalt
It was supposed to show total completed chores per user per week, but it was bugging. Do you have the latest version?

@PierreGode – OK, thanks. I was just wondering what it is estimating, and what it is supposed to do with the estimates.

Hi! How does MMM-Chores determine current date for tasks? I create a task in the Admin page for today, but it only shows if I have the “Show past tasks” option checked. The “created” and “assigned” date are correct in the data.json file. The raspberry pi looks like it is in correct location and time zone.

@bossier17
MMM‑Chores reads the current date from JavaScript’s built‑in Date object, which pulls time information directly from the host system’s clock. The display logic calls new Date() to obtain “today,”

Test it creating a clock.js with and run it with node clock.js this is what the app uses

const now = new Date();
console.log(new Date().toString());

@PierreGode said in MMM-Chores - Manage and keep track of your household Chores:

const now = new Date();
console.log(new Date().toString());

hmmm I can’t figure it out. clock.js returns the correct date/time. But I cannot get today’s tasks to show on the mirror. Somehow the display Chores on the Mirror is showing tomorrow’s chores only. If I put a chore in the admin page for tomorrow it will display. But chores I put in with today’s date only show if I have “Show Past Tasks” checked. Any ideas?

I made an update that I hope resolves the issue.
Update the module with git pull
