Microsoft To-Do (wunderlist replacement?)

andyyy

Hello,

I am having trouble setting up this module. At the point refresh token generation I am failing.

https://github.com/thobach/MMM-MicrosoftToDo/#refresh-token-generation-refresh-token

1). Open terminal app -> I tried the windows console, powershell and secure shell (on the PI), but everywhere I receive just errors as output.

Can someone give some guidance. Thanks.

@andyyy What error message do you get? Are you on Windows 10 which should have curl pre-installed? I updated the readme file to replace the space symbols with %20 as that seemed to have caused issues for some. Please make sure to preserve the ’ symbol at the end of the call.

@binderth The refresh happens every 60s. I don’t plan to implement a fade-option, sorry, it would require quite some effort given the current implementation.

thobach

@Jan You’re welcome. Have you tried adding the module multiple times in the config file with different listId values?

thobach

@binderth Did the tips from @ThaliaFromPrussia (https://forum.magicmirror.builders/post/68615) work for you to see what error you are getting on the magic mirror front-end?

Jan

@thobach Thx for your reply. Your solution has not exactly the effect what i want, but it works fine for me ;-)

@thobach

curl -X POST https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token

Length Required

HTTP Error 411. The request must be chunked or have a content length.

I am sure curl is installed since other modules with OAuth are working as well.

Hi

Managed to get the default task list to show but cannot get any other list to show. It just States Loading Tasks but never changes. Selected the list from ToDo but the ‘ID’ is a lot shorter than the example given.

Is there something I’m missing here?

It seems like this should work but just having trouble getting it to link. Not overly impressed with ToDo yet but need a shared environment and this was the simple choice having previously used Wunderlist.

Cheers

Hi,
I had the same problem and I also had a shorter ID than the example. And of course, the status stay on “Loading tasks” for ever.
Finally, to solve this and get the full length link, I’ve done the following :

create a share link from the list and open it
click on “Sign in to join list”
on next windows, click on “open”
I finally have an error “List not found” but in the url is the correct ID which is working as ListID, e.g :
https://to-do.live.com/tasks/AQMkADAwATMwNAItYmQyZS0wNnYxLTAwAi0wMAoALgAAAwyBXwAxHLZDhD1s2yT7wLoBAIZRCieiy1tMpuO70ZBr_R8AA3lr_WoAAAA=

Hope it helps,
Cheers,

@wazzu Excellent worked a treat… ToDo didn’t like the link (List not Found) but when it returned to screen the list had the long ID. I amended the config file and worked like a charm… Thanks G

@andyyy The call seems to be missing some parameters, please check the full command line from https://github.com/thobach/MMM-MicrosoftToDo/blob/master/README.MD, thanks!

thobach

@zolabus It seems you faced the same issue as in https://github.com/thobach/MMM-MicrosoftToDo/issues/18. I updated the instructions in https://github.com/thobach/MMM-MicrosoftToDo/blob/master/README.MD#refresh-token-generation-refresh-token to be more Windows friendly, e.g. all in a single line and using double quotes. Could you please try it again with the updated instructions? Thanks!

@thobach: Do you have recommendations to get the due date to show? I have tried to add element.dueDateTime.dateTime in the MMM-MicrosoftToDo.js like I have in the past, but now the module won’t show with that that. And no matter how I try to format it with moment it still doesn’t like it. I tried it with the simple element.id to see if that would show and it does show the todo ID. Thoughts? I know I am missing something simple. Thanks!

lavolp3

@smoysauce if your element does not have a dueDateTime (null) this could lead to an error (cannot get property of undefined).

Maybe something like this?

if (element.dueDateTime) {
  var dueDate = moment(element.dueDateTime.dateTime).format("LL");
}

smoysauce

@lavolp3 Oh good call-out! I tried your example as well as a few other tweaks but it doesn’t seem to like it when I add that snippet in. I don’t know why it’s being so weird. I’ll keep toying around with it, but any other thoughts would be appreciated!

@lavolp3 said in Microsoft To-Do (wunderlist replacement?):

if (element.dueDateTime) {
var dueDate = moment(element.dueDateTime.dateTime).format(“LL”);
}

So after some tinkering, I figured out that the node.js was not pulling in the due date so I removed the ‘select’ filter so the call URL has '/tasks?$top='

After that, I was able to add moment(new Date(element.dueDateTime.dateTime)).format("ddd MMM DD") to the output string and got the date to show. But for the life of me, I cannot get the var or if statements to work. If I try to use either the module doesn’t load. I have tried them in all different spots and it just doesn’t like it.

@smoysauce
First, moment(new Date(element.dueDateTime.dateTime)).format("ddd MMM DD") is redundant. You don’t need the new Date part.
moment(element.dueDateTime.dateTime).format("ddd MMM DD")should be enough.

Second, where have you put it?
I had my own problems with the code, that’s why I’m working on an own version including due dates, but it’s not finished.

Here’s how I would try to include it.

if (this.list.length !== 0) {
      this.list.forEach(element => (listItemsText += '<li style="list-style-position:inside; white-space: nowrap; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis;">' + checkbox + element.subject + ((element.dueDate) ? moment(element.dueDateTime.dateTime).format("ddd MMM DD") : '') + '</li>'))
    } else {
      // otherwise indicate that there are no list entries
      listItemsText += '<li style="list-style-position:inside; white-space: nowrap; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis;">' + this.translate('NO_ENTRIES') + '</li>'
    }

this.list.forEach(element => (listItemsText += ‘
’ + checkbox + element.subject + ((element.dueDate) ? moment(element.dueDateTime.dateTime).format(“ddd MMM DD”) : ‘’) + ‘
’))
} else {
// otherwise indicate that there are no list entries
listItemsText += ‘
’ + this.translate(‘NO_ENTRIES’) + ‘
’
}

Thanks for pointing that out, I am still figuring things out and piecing things together and if they work I just stick with it! That snippet worked, I had to change the section element.dueDate to element.dueDateTime but other than that seems to be doing the trick. I’ll probably toy around with it a bit more to see if I can learn formatting it with CSS to left align the subject and right align the date. Thanks for the help and tips!
