Lovelace: Advanced calendar card

Hello Everyone,

I have a question around the card that I would like the users input on, if you use the card I would appreciate your feedback on this to help me decide on the best way forwards:

calendar link icon should this be different · totaldebug/atomic-calendar-revive · Discussion #1129 (github.com)

If I don’t get any feedback I will leave it as it is, but I feel it could be more useful used in different ways

I voted to add the link to other calendars as an option but I don’t feel strongly about that. I only use google calendars so either way is OK for me.

I just don’t want it to necessarily be removed or drastically changed.

HI

Is it possible to do search/replace in event titles ?

I load calendars from the AULA integration (Danish school information app) and this supplies calendars for each of my kids with school schedules.

The calendar events are all abreviated, so an event might be called “DAN, SJ”. This I would like replaced to “Dansk, Sine”.

I tried with eventTemplate, but that doesn’t work.

type: custom:atomic-calendar-revive
name: Skoleskema
enableModeChange: true
entities:
  - entity: calendar.skoleskema_name
    name: Skoleskema
maxDaysToShow: 6
defaultMode: Calendar
showDate: true
sortByStartTime: false
hideDuplicates: false
showMultiDayEventParts: false
hoursOnSameLine: false
compactMode: true
showMultiDay: false
showRelativeTime: false
hideFinishedEvents: false
eventTemplate: |
  {{ event.title 
  | replace('DAN', 'Dansk')  
  | replace('SJ', 'Sine')  }}

Any other way of doing this?

Have you found a solution to your question?

I found the HASS addon calendar but I can’t use it as I run HA in docker and can’t install addons.

https://github.com/kdw2060/hassio-addons/tree/master/hass-addon-calendar

Good job,
Is it possible to delete the event?..or tap to open the calendar??

It used to be, unfortunately HA removed some of the API data and the link to the calendar item was one of them.

I did open a feature request to get it added back but it’s been quite some time and nothing has been done.

If you comment and upbote it might get some more traction

Is it possible to make the tab invisible when there are no Events?

I feel like I am missing some documentation. I used to have the following options. I see that they are removed and it seems like I have to use card mod now or something. Can someone help me out with how to get these set up:

dateColor: white
dateSize: 100
eventTitlecolor: 'rgb(255,255,255)'
eventTitleSize: 115
timeColor: gray
progressBarColor: 'rgb(113, 113, 113)'

Seems to have some size issues

@marksie1988

Is the removal of quite a number of options replaced by any other methods to achieve the same results, please ? If so, I apologize upfront for having missed the documentation.

Hi,

I have removed these as they add some limitations in design aspect for users who want even more customisation.

I believe that using card_mod for style changes is a better way to achieve this and it adds the ability to change the look of the card massively

I agree with you, does anyone have examples of how to use card_mod to chance font color or size?

I plan to add some examples to the discussions page on GitHub, if anyone else has any to post on there it would be good, I want to built up a showroom of examples that people use.

I’d love to share once I get it right, just tinkering atm. I’ve got it set up full screen on a separate view on an Amazon Echo Show 15. Calendar view at the top then event view on a separate card below. It’s working really nicely.

However, I cannot seem to get the dots to work on the calendar view on each day there is an event.

type: custom:atomic-calendar-revive
name: null
enableModeChange: true
entities:
  - entity: calendar.joint_calendar_2
    type: mdi:dots-circle
    color: white
showDate: true
showLoader: false
calShowDescription: true
defaultMode: 2
maxDaysToShow: 30
showEventIcon: true

Any idea what I’m doing wrong?

Thanks for all of your great work!

Thx for the feedback, Marksie1988.

Would be great if at least a documented card_mod alternative for all the options that were removed, would be provided.

Appreciating your incredible work and dedication !!!

I didn’t update the card for the same reason.
I have no idea how to edit everything that was removed so that the card is the same as it was before the change.

I have just done a quick stream to show everyone how to use card_mod with this, its quite simple and as people add more to the showroom it will become much easier.

Hello all,

I am trying to set up the calendar card since monday without success.
I have both local calendar and google calendar succusfully integrated in HA. Both are showing up in the HA calendar view and also in the official HA calendar card for frontend.
The atomic calendar revive card is loading and also displaying the days of the month but no entries. All calendars are showing up in the required settings and I selected all of them. But still nothing shown. BTW the event view is also empty (no events).
I removed the google calendar integration and readded it but still it only works with the HA calendar.
Plenty of restarts done. No information in log-file. Not even a hint something could be missconfigured. I am literally lost.
Any suggestions what I am doing wrong? Besides the not working google calendar I am wondering if local calendars (loaded from ics files) are even supported with this card (at least it is selectable under required settings).
Thank you in advance
