Calendar times in 24 hour format?

[dinkybluebug245]

Any way to change calendar times to 24 hour? (as in the clock?)

[jtyle6]

Change the timeFormat: in the config.js file in config folder so looks like this.

/* Magic Mirror Config

var config = {
        port: 8080,

        language: 'en',
        timeFormat: 12,
        units: 'metric',

Note: I Have only copied top half of mine.

@jtyle6 Mine is already showing timeformat as 24, which shows the clock in 24 hour format. But calendar items are still showing 12 hour format with AM/PM

Sorry for Dig this topic from grave but i have the same problem like @dinkybluebug245
I have meeting on 15:00 but calendar say its 03:00. Without PM
I have in config timeFormat: 24.
Everything work fine, only wrong time is show.
And this is bug after update to last version.

Two things to try.

Is your time and time zone set correctly on your Pi itself?

You could also try timeFormat: 24, in the module entry of the config.

[MrEdOne]

timeFormat: 24, in calendar module not work.
How can i check is my time and timezone correctly set?
Im from Poland so i set Europe/Warsaw time in raspi-config.
My clock works correctly.

When i change timeFormat to 12 calendar add PM to 03:00 so it’s correctly, but when i change to 24, PM disappear.

but when i change to 24, PM disappear.

That makes perfect sense. 24 hour format would NOT show AM/PM, only 12 hour format would do that.

3:00 PM in 12 hour format

1500 in 24 hour format (no PM)

[MrEdOne]

Yes, but it won’t change 03:00 to 15:00

[Mykle1]

@MrEdOne

Oh ok, that’s different

It sounds like something is overriding the timeFormat: setting. Have you made any changes to the calendar.js file?

[MrEdOne]

Nope. A search only where is a timeformat in js but my knowledge is to small. :)

[Mykle1]

@MrEdOne

Are you typing timeformat ? That won’t work.

It has to be timeFormat with a capital F.

Wait a minute, the only options for timeFormat in the calendar module are absolute or relative

[MrEdOne]

But it not change anything.
With absolute and relative is the same.

@MrEdOne

It has to be timeFormat with a capital F. And at the top of your config also

var config = {
        port: 8080,

        language: 'en',
        timeFormat: 24,
        units: 'metric',

[MrEdOne]

Yes. I have everywhere timeFormat. on a top of config and in calendar module with capital F

[MrEdOne]

I give up. I don’t know where is error.

@MrEdOne
timeFormat uses the formatting of your operating system.
When “24” is configured the format “hh:mm” is returned. Which is exactly, what you are looking for.
Here is the code snippet from calender.js:

		switch (config.timeFormat) {
		case 12: {
			moment.updateLocale(config.language, {
				longDateFormat: {
					LT: "h:mm A"
				}
			});
			break;
		}
		case 24: {
			moment.updateLocale(config.language, {
				longDateFormat: {
					LT: "hh:mm"
				}
			});
			break;
		}

What do you get, when typing date in your console?

If it’s not in displayed in a format of 24h, change the setting of your OS.

Maybe this helps?

[MrEdOne]

Here is output from date

pi@MagicMirror:~ $ date
wto, 25 lip 2017, 20:59:48 CEST

Yes in 12, but in 24 I have 03:00 instead 15:00

[SvenSommer]

I think there is simply an understanding problem. You wrote:
“When i change timeFormat to 12 calendar add PM to 03:00 so it’s correctly, but when i change to 24, PM disappear.”

So, if I’m interpreting this right, you are looking for something that isn’t the usual case. You want to display something like: “20:59 PM”
Is this correct?
