NodeBB Plugins
  • I need testers for my calendar plugin. I've been working on it for a while, and I just got into a feature full stage, so now I need it to be tested. If you're willing to test it for me, please install it to your NodeBB and report any bugs or anything here or on Github. Thanks!

    This plugin adds a site-wide calendar to NodeBB.

    Installation

    For now, git clone the repository from Github

    Don't forget to restart after installing the plugin.

    Configuration

    Before do anything with the Calendar, make sure you have the correct settings set up in the ACP plugin setting page. It will tell you what to do.

    Note: If you don't know the id# of the category you want the events to be posted in, edit something about the event, and when you click save, the alert will tell you the event id#. Then you can change back whatever you did.

    Features

    • Synchronization between different users' activities on the Calendar page
    • Full permissions system separate from that of the main site
    • Individual event permissions for viewing and editing of the event
    • Public events (even guests can see them)
    • Simplistic, graceful UI (infinite scroll OMG!)
    • Comments system using NodeBB topics
    • Response system for easy user responses
    • Click a day on the calendar to select it, and show its events in the sidebar
    • Click an event in either the sidebar or the calendar to show its details in the sidebar
    • Jump to year and month from the fields above the Calendar
    • Configurable automated notifications for upcoming events
    • Awesome new interface, with mobile support!
    • Support for (optionally) using arasbm's Whoisin plugin to power the response system
    • Ability for translations

  • Added Italian translations

    Installation instructions:

    1. Open a command window in the NodeBB directory
    2. Navigate to the node_modules directory (cd node_modules) and run npm remove nodebb-plugin-calendar
    3. Delete the nodebb-plugin-calendar directory with del nodebb-plugin-calendar or rm -r nodebb-plugin-calendar
    4. Clone the master branch of the git repository git clone https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar
    5. Navigate to the nodebb-plugin-calendar directory with cd nodebb-plugin-calendar
    6. Install npm dependencies with the command npm install

    Those commands should install it correctly. It should then be visible in the ACP (maybe after a restart) to be activated.

    My console log in Windows:

    D:\NodeBB\node_modules>npm remove nodebb-plugin-calendar
    unbuild [email protected]
    
    D:\NodeBB\node_modules>del nodebb-plugin-calendar
    Could Not Find D:\NodeBB\node_modules\nodebb-plugin-calendar
    
    D:\NodeBB\node_modules>git clone -b 0.2.x https://github.com/pitaj/nodebb-plugin-calendar
    Cloning into 'nodebb-plugin-calendar'...
    remote: Counting objects: 615, done.

    D:\NodeBB\node_modules>cd nodebb-plugin-calendar
    
    D:\NodeBB\node_modules\nodebb-plugin-calendar>npm install
    

    Follow those instructions and you should be good.

  • @Master-Antonio @Codejet @markkus

    How is the plugin so far? Have you encountered any bugs?

    BTW, @markkus, there are translatable strings. Look here

    I've also moved the 0.2.x code into the master branch.

    I'm probably going to release an npm package within the next week for anyone who doesn't want to use git.

    I haven't tried it yet. I'll give it a shot once you've released the npm package. πŸ˜‰

    And thanks for the heads up, I'll probably produce Estonian translation once I get my hands on it.

  • Doesn't seem to work in NodeBB master. (Intentional maybe?)

    The admin page works, but the calendar page appears, then quickly disappears. Didn't see any errors on the server or client console.

  • @yariplus Requesting some information about the bug, because I haven't had that problem:

    What browser?
    What commit of NodeBB?

  • @pitaj

    NodeBB: 9ca7243124a3de29b16de0dd280b56ea14bf6c14
    FireFox: 37.0.2
    Chrome: 42.0.2311.135 m

    Nothing is on the server log.

    This is the whole client log:

    "Successfully loaded initial data" cal.js:827:8
    "Calendar templates loaded" cal.js:850:8
    "Calendar translation loaded" cal.js:852:10
    "Initializing Calendar" cal.js:192:10
    "Initializing Events" cal.js:200:10
    

    I just checked the DOM and the content row is display:none

    <div id="content" class="container">
        <div class="row">...</div>   <~ This has display:none
    </div>
    

    I changed it to block and the calendar is partially there but doesn't work. I'm guessing it didn't finish loading.

    Theme was latest lavender, same thing with latest persona.

  • @yariplus

    Okay, so it appears that you're using a language besides it, en_US, or en_GB. That's why the translation strings are all showing up.
    The row had display:none because of a badly-targeted css rule to hide the bottom widgets. I don't know why that NaN is showing up, that's weird.

    I think I fixed these issues in the latest commit. Try and see if a git pull fixes the problems.

    EDIT: Actually, now it should work.

  • @pitaj Okay, removed and reinstalled your latest from git.

    It loads now and translates, but the day is still NaN and events don't appear on the calendar.

    I am getting an error now:

    TypeError: calendar.days[y] is undefined cal.js:339:12
    

    Also, events do appear on the forum in the correct category, but they're not parsed correctly.

  • @yariplus

    Alright, is this hosted publicly somewhere? I need to figure out what is actually going on. I know about the parsing thing with the posts.

    I can't figure out why you're getting NaN. The only thing I can think of is that the appropriate data isn't being sent to the template.

  • @pitaj It's just my personal site. yaricraft.com

    I can make you a ftp/ssh account if you want.

    AHH, I figured it out. It has something to do with widgets. I removed all my widgets and suddenly everything works now.

    Any widget I use, even just plain text, breaks it. Widgets must mess up the template somehow.

  • Okay, only side widgets cause the error.

    Here's the finished dom with header/footer widgets: (the cal works and the widgets disappear.)

    <div id="content" class="container-fluid">
        <div class="row">
            <div class="col-xs-12" widget-area="header"></div>
        </div>
        <noscript></noscript>
        <div class="nodebb-plugin-calendar"></div>
    </div>
    

    and with side widgets: (The widgets appear and the cal doesn't work.)

    <div id="content" class="container-fluid">
        <div class="row">
            <div class="col-lg-9 col-xs-12">
                <noscript></noscript>
                <div class="nodebb-plugin-calendar"></div>
            </div>
            <div class="col-lg-3 col-xs-12" widget-area="sidebar"></div>
        </div>
    </div>
