Description: This is a plasmoid to show the events and todos from Akonadi resources (KOrganizer, Birthdays etc.). With a google resource also Google calendar items can be shown. Also possible with a CalDAV resource. A facebook resource is also available.
Incidences can be filtered, added, edited, deleted via context menu.
The Plasma 5 port may take again a while... ;-( (any help?)
Thanks to the authors of todolist, public transport, rtm.
Some rpm for openSUSE can be found here: Now in KDE:Unstable:Playground
0.7 remove title item if empty - patch by causa-prima extra slot for startServer for delayed start - helps to prevent hangs on session startup
0.6.97 - previous version was buggy in removing items - fixed (I hope)
0.6.96 - check for already existing items to avoid doubled entries
0.6.95 - add contact name to possible substitutions - filter for collections instead of resources (reconfigure filter necessary)
0.6.90 (0.7 rc) - use kincindenceeditor if available - delete incidences via menu - fix bug with wrong mouse pointer position (wrong incidence selected)
Hi,
I've recently discoverd this plasmoid and started some working on it. What annoyed me was the waste of space when not using a title for the applet, so I changed some code to just add the title to the layout if it is non-empty, even removing it if it previously was non-empty and is now empty. I've uploaded my git diff here, as getting a kde developer account has quiete some requierements: http://pastebin.com/ZYApAnML
Hej there. Is there still some development going on? I was just wondering that the last release seems to be a development version number, but it's from 2 years ago.
Well,active. ;-)
Not much time currently.
I try to make a 0.7 release soon.
Next thing would be porting to Plasma 5 as there is still no other good calendar/agenda plasmoid, imho.
but as i'm still using 4.14 this will be not before 2015.
Many Thanks great Plasmoid. I had a problem with filtering the categories, it turned out to be related to a bug in Korganizer.
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=333754
Basically my ~/.kde/share/config/korganizerrc file didn't have any Custom Categories configured under [General], although I added some categories.
After manually adding my categories to korganizerrc, I can filter them using this Plasmoid.
I am using KDE version 4.13.2, it seems they are storing custom categories in a different location now.
It's in the svn repo, the webinterface link is
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kde4/templates/messages/playground-pim/
There's the desktop and the application pot file.
If you need help there are some articles on techbase. The program lokalize can help you with translating.
I haven’t found a bug tracker, so I’m writing my issue here.
Since I updated to 0.6.97 (current latest release), something odd started happening – and namely that one of the eventlist instances (I use 4 at the same time, and it’s always the top-left one) sometimes when plasma starts, does not load and presents an empty plasmoid that says (translating back from Slovenian):
“This object was not able to be created. Reason:
Unable to find the needed part: plasma_applet_events”
The funny thing is that all 3 other eventlist instances load just fine.
enable debugging for plasma etc. with kdebugdialog.
Then maybe you can find something in .xsession-errors.
Or try to reproduce within plasmoidviewer with debugging enabled.
I just enabled the debugging as you described and then replicated the bug by killing plasma-desktop and running it again.
The bug replicated beautifully, but nothing got written to ~/.xsession-errors :/
There is no crash report by Dr. Konqui?
Try to run in from plasmoidviewer, maybe you need to install the program. Then in the console
"plasmoidviewer plasma_applet_events"
and try to reproduce it here.
Nope, Dr.Konqi doesn’t even pop up
I tried to replicate it inside the plasmoidviewer, but can’t seem to – I tried everything that I could think of.
The thing is that it replicates always, when plasma-desktop (re)starts – whether due to a crash of plasma-desktop or on new startup/login.
It’s probably not going to help, but this is the crash report that happened before I had to re-create the Eventlist settings again.

I’m saying it’s probably irrelevant to *this* bug, since I can replicate it in *any* way that plasma-desktop starts.

Sorry for the long delay, not much time. ;-) pushed it now.

Yes, port to plasma 5 would be great! =)
Sorry, no time currently, but not dead (will need it by myself). Porting needs to learn QML too. :-(

I’d be happy to translate eventlist into Slovenian. Is there a .po(t) file I can use or how do I go about that?

I’m acquainted with Lokalize. Just need to brush the dust off it in set it up again ☺ Thanks for pointing me to the pot file!
The plasmoid loads fine, but I always get this in the plasma error reporting: Executable: plasma-desktop PID: 21642 Signal: Segmentation fault (11)
Is this related to eventlist? If, then more info needed, debuglog/trace, output of Dr. Konqui.

Sorry cannot reproduce, works for me at least up to 5 plasmoids.
All other plasmoids are fine – just that one eventlist instance dies and it’s quite annoying. Do you have any idea how to get more info?

How do I remove the "Some day" header? It is showing all my holiday events up to the year 2030.
There are some options to limit the general timeframe and count of repeating events in the context menu -> settings.
I set the period to 31 days, but the issue remains.
what version do you use? how do you create these events, as repeating events?
They are holiday events. So I'm assuming they are reocurring. Sorry for the late reply BTW
