Microsoft To-Do (wunderlist replacement?)

[geoffroff]

@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!

@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!

@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");
}

@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!

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>'
    }

’ + 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!

@thobach thanks for your effort. Just got this up and running from your instructions in the README. Very pleased. :thumbs_up:
