MMM-MyCalendar

[ninjabreadman]

@twosquirrels Does MMM-MyCalendar support a column layout? I can’t find any reference to a columns property for its config: https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-MyCalendar/blob/master/README.md

[twosquirrels]

@ninjabreadman Page 1 contains an update where it mentions support for 2 columns:

@himanshulotia Yes.

First, you can set colored: true in the config, then add color: "#d9b4b2” and color: "#a0cfe2" per the docs.

Second, have a look at the FontAwesome 4 docs. You could likely insert them into your headings. For how to insert images, you could probably use CSS if you can find the right selectors.

@twosquirrels It looks like you need to use the using_nunjucks branch. The default branch is still (it seems to me, on my phone) 1.0 – it doesn’t contain an .njk template file.

@ninjabreadman

Ahh, I see. Silly question - how do I pull from that branch instead of from the master? I googled the differences but it’s not making sense to me.

AHH! I figured it out:

pi@magicmirror:~/MagicMirror/modules $ git clone -b using_nunjucks https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-MyCalendar.git

@ninjabreadman thank you for pointing this out!

Hi

Just wondering if there is anyway I can use custom symbols for calendar entries in place of the ‘day of the month’ logos? Similar to the default calendar module?

Thanks

Hi, it’s really a nice module, but got a small issue here. I’m wondering how to make the event contents left-aligned. I tried to modify some parameters in MMM-MyCalendar.css, but didn’t work.
Thanks!

@cola0927

change the text-align under title in the css

.MMM-MyCalendar .title {
  color: #ff0;
  font-size: 55px;
  line-height: 115%;
  font-weight: 600;
  text-align: left;
  padding-left: 0;
  margin-bottom: 2px;
  white-space: nowrap;
  text-overflow: ellipsis;
  border-radius: 15px;
  overflow: hidden;
  display: block;
  margin-top: 4px;
}

@justjim1220 Cool! Thank you so much!

This module is great! Thank you!

Is it possible to add a header/title for the day of the week with the items below it? Essentially you would see Monday and the corresponding items below it. Then Tuesday and it’s items, and so forth.

Any thoughts?

@hoveeman yeah should be doable. Let me take a look over the next few days.

[hoveeman]

@j-e-f-f Awesome, that would be great! Really appreciate it!

Also, I would envision if there were no items for Wednesday it would not list anything and go straight to Thursday. Thoughts?

Hi! Love the module :). Just wondering if there’s a way to space out the columns enough so that the titles don’t get cut off:

Thank you for your work!!

Hey there!

For some time now, i have the following issue:

My MMM-MyCalendar is showing dates wrongly (one day in the past) although they are correct in the used ics-file.

I moved my question over to the “troubleshooting” section (as it seems it fits better there):

https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/8963/mmm-mycalendar-showing-wrong-dates-days-one-day-in-the-past

[j.e.f.f]

@bokifide You would need to write some custom CSS to adjust the width of the containing column. The module is designed to used all of the space available in its container.

I’d like to have absolute days in my calendar, but all I see is ‘today’, Saturday (without date), etc.

My config is:
maximumEntries: 8,
useRelativeDates: false,
joiningWord: “om”,
maxTitleLength: 48,
dateFormat: “D MMMM YYYY”,
timeFormat: “HH:mm”,
urgency: 0,
getRelative: 0,
calendars: [* secret *]

Am I doing something wrong?

Some things like timeFormat (HH:mm), maxTitleLength and joiningWord work fine.

[VinGroot]

This post is deleted!

[VinGroot]

When I set maximumEntries: 8 I only see items 3 items.
I did some testing and I think the reason I only see 3 items is because some items are excluded.
I think the excluded items are counted as well.

Hi @j-e-f-f , thanks for the great module. The config indicates that the icons are customizable using Font Awesome, but the behavior and the code (line ~181) seem to indicate otherwise. Any chance we could get it back? Do you know how you would want it implement with the svg system you have?

[j.e.f.f]

My module does not have a configurable icon. It wouldn’t work with the calendar icon with the date inside.

I based my modyle off the default calendar midule included wth MM. that one has a configurablenicon and perhaps I forgot to remove the instruction in my version.

Mine never had a configurable icon. I might enable a few options that would work with the date number inside, but at the moment you just get the one.
