Sync private iCloud calendar with MagicMirror

[spor4]

@sdetweil sorry for asking stupid (total noob), I should edit the .ics file with the text editor into this?
If I do so it says Error in calendar module. Check logs for more details. again

BEGIN:VCALENDAR
BEGIN:VEVENT
…
END:VEVENT
repeat for all events
END:VCALENDAR

@spor4 no. you are going to look at the generated ics file and see if it contains the format I described

[spor4]

@sdetweil no it’s empty

[sdetweil]

@spor4 then thats why no events on the calendar…

so the syncher didn’t work correctly

now you need someone elses help on that problem

@Beh Okay, I apologize because I’m sure this is a very basic question but how do you create an array in the config? I tried doing [], [] but that didn’t work.

Also, I keep getting this error when discovering and press y.

Should vdirsyncer attempt to create it? [y/N]: y
error: Unknown error occurred: [Errno 13] Permission denied: ‘/home/pi’

How can I bypass this?

@sdetweil Any idea why I’m getting an error when running discover and saying yes to sync?

error: Unknown error occurred: [Errno 13] Permission denied: ‘/home/pi’
error: Use -vdebug to see the full traceback.

@anhanyoung I do not know anything about this syncing tool, never had to use it

@Saabman do you know how to get the syncer to work? I keep getting an error saying I don’t have permissions to /home/pi
