      Hi to all MM-Builders,

      as i want to use my MM as replacement for a analog family cardboard calendar i have following question/request.

      Is there calendar module, where i can “scroll” throuh the dates?
      As i have a rotary encoder connected to my pi 3 - sending of notifications is no problem.
      Something like “+7” or “-7” (days).

      I checked the default calendar module and guess i have to add “notification received”, but i dont understand, how the module reads an .ics file.

      Is it possible to set a start date, from which the calender entries should be shown?
      So i could manipulate the startdate by notifications from my rotary module (MMM-Navigate).

      Maybe someone has a tip where i can start.

      Thanks in advance.

        Hi to all,

        i checked the default calendar module and found an approach:
        If i manipulate following code:
        calendar.js, Line 338:
        var today = moment().startOf("day");’ to var today = moment().subtract(60,'d').startOf("day");

        and

        calendarfetcher.js, Line 74:
        var today = moment().startOf("day").toDate(); to var today = moment().subtract(60,'d').startOf("day").toDate();

        the calendar module of my MM will show calendar entries starting Date of two month ago (today-60 days).

        Now i have to add following functions:

        • notification received function for ±5 days (for example)
        • manipulate variable today with value of notification received
        • pass variable today to the right place in code of calender.js and calendarfetcher.js
        • refresh module after receiving notification
        • stop sending notification from calendar to other modules, in case variable today is manipulated
