Good morning!

I am LOVING the MMM-CalendarExt3!! I am nearly ready to order a display for my project, just trying to iron out a few last wrinkles with the code. Last night I made a change so that the Events listed on the calendar are colored to match the calendar they belong to (using SEVERAL different calendars, all populate just fine, no issues there, each one has a different color for a different family member.

My end goal is to have the TIME for the events remain white, text for event be colored to match calendar color, full day events use BACKGROUND for calendar color but remain with white & black text as determined by the system based on the background color.

This is the ONLY change I have made that has had any effect. Making this change ALSO changed the text color for the all day events, but in the event.fullday it is still using oppositeColor.

.CX3 .event .headline .title {
  color: var(--calendarColor);

I tried moving this section above the section mentioned previously but it had no impact.

.CX3 .event.fullday,
.CX3 .event.multiday {
  background-color: var(--calendarColor);
  mix-blend-mode: difference;
  border-radius: 4px;
  color: var(--oppositeColor);
}

Here is what the calendar looks like with the event titles colored.

Also, and I’m sorry for lumping this into the same thread, with MMM-CalendarExt3Agenda, is there a way to select what information from the calendar is displayed? It defaults to showing just about all the event info, I’d like to keep it at just time, and event name if possible.

Hey All,

I am messing about with Magic Mirror in a non-mirror project, and I am LOVING it. For the moment I have it connected to a 65" TV, but I’m testing it just using VNC from my PC. I am looking to set up a 27" display in my kitchen and am looking for display recommendations. I am currently thinking about getting this from Amazon - SAMSUNG 27" T35F. It is a 27 inch 1080 panel. I plan to build an enclosure for it, as it will be under hanging pots and pans, and want to make sure it doesn’t get dripped on as some of them drip dry hanging.

Thank you!!

@sdetweil

Thank you!

I took the leap and opened Issue #3297 on GitHub. I hope I did it correctly, I just signed up for GitHub to create the issue, so I am not familiar with how it all works.

@sdetweil

I am not 100% positive what that snippet of code means, but after an hour of googling, it sets fetchInterval to whatever is set in the config OR (if that is empty) use the default value in this file.

Anyhow, my issue has been solved, I do thank you for your assistance, I really appreciate it!

If there is anything you need me to provide regarding the issue I am seeing with the out of the box behavior with the fetchInterval I am more than happy to provide it, just let me know what you need and I will provide it if I can.

@sdetweil Thank you again for the information, but with that being the case, for me it is NOT working inside the calendar entry. I spun up a new Magic Mirror on identical hardware and software this morning, with the ONLY change to MM being the copy the config.js.sample to config.js, then running, and it was defaulting to 3.6 million ms which is 1 hour, rather than the 604.8 million ms which is 168 hours or 1 week.

Here is essentially what I did:

Raspbian - Raspberry PI OS Legacy 32 bit - configured with ONLY new username and Wifi credentials
Enable VNC

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install -y ca-certificates curl gnupg git

sudo mkdir -p /etc/apt/keyrings

curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/gpgkey/nodesource-repo.gpg.key | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/nodesource.gpg

NODE_MAJOR=20
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/nodesource.gpg] https://deb.nodesource.com/node_$NODE_MAJOR.x nodistro main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nodesource.list

sudo apt update

sudo apt install nodejs -y


git clone https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror

cd MagicMirror/

npm run install-mm

sudo npm install -g npm@10.2.5

cp config/config.js.sample config/config.js


sudo dphys-swapfile swapoff

sudo nano /etc/dphys-swapfile
CONF_SWAPSIZE=1024

sudo dphys-swapfile setup

sudo dphys-swapfile swapon


npm run start

Here is the full output of my test, key is the line just a few from the end:
https://ics.calendarlabs.com/76/mm3137/US_Holidays.ics - Interval: 3600000

Again, this is running without modifying ANY of the files, it is just as it cloned it from Git. Is this a quirk on my hardware, or is the fetchInterval not currently working under the calendar.

DOES work:

                        header: "US Holidays",

                                calendars: [

                                                url: "https://ics.calendarlabs.com/76/mm3137/US_Holidays.ics"
                                        }
                                ]
                        }
                },

Thank you for confirming that for me. That was an oversight on my part in my very late hours working on it this morning. I apologize for the boneheaded lack of observation. I read the documents, but was basing my findings on where I originally found the fetchInterval in the sample config. I moved it outside the config, didn’t think about moving it inside config but outside calendar.

That all said, there IS AN ISSUE with a file on the github. The file config.js.sample has the fetchInterval in the wrong location. In it’s present location, the sample config hits the Holiday calendar once an hour rather than once a week.

Here is a direct copy and paste from gitHub file:

			module: "calendar",
			header: "US Holidays",
			position: "top_left",
			config: {
				calendars: [
					{
						fetchInterval: 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000,
						symbol: "calendar-check",
						url: "https://ics.calendarlabs.com/76/mm3137/US_Holidays.ics"
					}
				]
			}
		},

To fix the issue, LINE - 58 - fetchInterval: 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000, should be relocated to LINE 56
calendars: [ should be moved down to LINE 57

Good day to everyone! I am a VERY new user to Magic Mirror. I tried getting it working on a Raspberry Pi Zero W a few months ago to no avail and gave up. I recently got a number of Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W units, and just got Magic Mirror working this week for the first time ever.

While messing about with the calendar, I stumbled upon an issue, I don’t know if it is specific to Magic Mirror in general, or with my specific hardware & software version.

What I found is that SOME of the variables in the config.js file have NO effect, instead using the default values configured in the calendar.js file. I found that I am NOT able to configure SOME of the variables under the module section, most specifically maximumEntries & fetchInterval. The ONLY thing I have adjusted in the config.js file is duplicating the calendar module, and adjusting the max entries and fetch int to see if I could find out why default was overriding what is configured.

Other things in the config do work like position and header, though they aren’t defined in the calendar.js file. The url is, but that I CAN change without issue. For grins I commented out the fetchInterval from the calendar.js, and the fetch runs continuously to the point that the calendar instances disappear. If only the maxEntries is commented out, the config.js entries STILL have zero impact.

I am hoping this is something I am just overlooking that is a DUH kind of thing as a new user.
