Sync private iCloud calendar with MagicMirror

l0cal

That sounds good for me. Does it work with reminders on the same way?

Beh

Maybe you have to allow your localhost address to the MagicMirror ipWhiteList option in your config. Just add ipWhitelist: ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1"], to your config right before the modules option. Maybe the calendar module can not access the .ics file if this is not allowed…

Beh

@l0cal Yes this should work.

Just add "VTODO" to the item_types array in your vdirsyncer config as described in the vdirsyncer docs here: https://vdirsyncer.pimutils.org/en/stable/config.html?highlight=VEVENT#storage-caldav.

@Beh yeah that are good news for me.

in the last few weeks I was looking for a solution for it and I did not find anything

I have a question

So far I managed to sync one calendar from one iCloud account, but I would like to sync also a second calendar from a second iCloud account, is this possible?

Thanks
Ricardo

Hey @ribermon!

Yes, this should be possible. You just have to add another configuration scheme for your second icloud account to the vdirsyncer config. I didn’t try it, but something like that should work:

# vdirsyncer configuration for MagicMirror.
#
# Move it to ~/.vdirsyncer/config or ~/.config/vdirsyncer/config and edit it.
# Run `vdirsyncer --help` for CLI usage.
#
# Optional parameters are commented out.
# This file doesn't document all available parameters, see
# http://vdirsyncer.pimutils.org/ for the rest of them.

[general]
# A folder where vdirsyncer can store some metadata about each pair.
status_path = "~/.vdirsyncer/status/"

# CALDAV Sync for iCloud 1
[pair iCloud1_to_MagicMirror]
a = "Mirror_iCloud1"
b = "iCloud1"
collections = ["HERE-GOES-THE-UUID-OF-THE-CALENDAR-YOU-WANT-TO-SYNC"]

# Calendars also have a color property
metadata = ["displayname", "color"]

[storage Mirror_iCloud1]
# We need a single .ics file for use with the mirror (Attention! This is really slow on big amounts of events.)
type = "singlefile"
# We'll put the calendar file to a readable location for the calendar module
path = "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/calendars/%s.ics"

[storage iCloud1]
type = "caldav"
url = "https://caldav.icloud.com/"
# Authentication credentials
username = "YOUR-ICLOUD-EMAIL-ADDRESS"
password = "HERE-GOES-YOUR-APP-SPECIFIC-ICLOUD-PASSWORD"
# We only want to sync in the direction TO the mirror, so we make iCloud readonly
read_only = true
# We only want to sync events
item_types = ["VEVENT"]
# We need to keep the number of events low, so we'll just sync the next month
# Adjust this to your needs
start_date = "datetime.now() - timedelta(days=1)"
end_date = "datetime.now() + timedelta(days=30)"


# CALDAV Sync for iCloud 2
[pair iCloud2_to_MagicMirror]
a = "Mirror_iCloud2"
b = "iCloud2"
collections = ["HERE-GOES-THE-UUID-OF-THE-CALENDAR-YOU-WANT-TO-SYNC"]

# Calendars also have a color property
metadata = ["displayname", "color"]

[storage Mirror_iCloud2]
# We need a single .ics file for use with the mirror (Attention! This is really slow on big amounts of events.)
type = "singlefile"
# We'll put the calendar file to a readable location for the calendar module
path = "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/calendars/%s.ics"

[storage iCloud2]
type = "caldav"
url = "https://caldav.icloud.com/"
# Authentication credentials
username = "YOUR-ICLOUD2-EMAIL-ADDRESS"
password = "HERE-GOES-YOUR-APP-SPECIFIC-ICLOUD2-PASSWORD"
# We only want to sync in the direction TO the mirror, so we make iCloud readonly
read_only = true
# We only want to sync events
item_types = ["VEVENT"]
# We need to keep the number of events low, so we'll just sync the next month
# Adjust this to your needs
start_date = "datetime.now() - timedelta(days=1)"
end_date = "datetime.now() + timedelta(days=30)"

@Beh I manage to discover the calendars from my second iCloud account but then I don’t manage to sync my calendars there, any idea, thanks

Beh

@ribermon No I have no idea. But since this is actually a vdirsyncer-problem and has nothing to do with the mirror itself, I suggest you dig the vdirsyncer-Documentation:

Hi Beh

Sorry if I´m too newbie… I´m following your step-by step and I get stuck in one place…

When creating a config file, I type:

 touch ~/.vdirsyncer/config

and I get:
Can´t do ‘touch’ on ‘/home/pi.vdirsyncer/config’: The file or directory doesn´t exist

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
