Event Calendar
Featured
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): https://github.com/Zren/plasma-applet-eventcalendar
Note: v67 changes the font sizing to behave the same as DigitalClock. If you use a custom font height, you will need to adjust it to be smaller.
v64+ requires Plasma 5.12 (Kubuntu 18.04 and later)
An extended calendar with daily weather forecasts and events from Google Calendar. Also includes a timer and 24 hour forecast graph.

v68 - June 26 2020 17 days ago
* Added Japanese translations by @ymadd (Pull Request #139)
## v67 - June 23 2020
* Fix event creation (Issue #137)
* Workaround hardcoded top/bottom padding in clock text (Issue #6). Note that fixing this has made "Fixed Font Height" text larger so you will need to manually adjust it smaller after the update. Scale to fit now uses the same size as Digital Clock, where 1 line is 71% panel height, and 2 lines uses the entire height.
* Add option to hide 'All Day' text in the agenda so all day events take up less vertical space. Location is placed next to the summary if it is set.
* Configurable spacing between days/events. Doubled day spacing to 20px.
* Update ru translations by @aliger14 (Pull Request #124)
* Update pt_BR translations by @herzenschein (Pull Request #125)
* Update nl translations by @Vistaus (Pull Request #138)

* Refactor event timestamp handling.
* Show kholiday events by default in Arch/Manjaro.

v64 - October 6 2019 9 months ago
* Notice: On June 18-19, Google Calendar suffered an outage, exposing a bug in the widget. The widget was caught in a loop trying to update. A symptom of this was 100% usage causing a the taskbar to not be responsive. (Issue #85)
* Fix: Properly detect google calendar access token has expired errors. No longer assumes every error is an access token error. Detect when the rate limit has been reached. (Issue #85)
* Check if the access token has expired before editing the event summary/description, or creating/deleting an event. You no longer need to refresh the events first if it's been a long time since the last access token was fetched.
* Use HTTPS when connecting to OpenWeatherMap. When the widget was made, HTTPS was not available. Note that Google Calendar integration has always used HTTPS. (Issue #83)
* The refresh button will no longer force a refresh of the weather data. Weather will only manually update if it's been over an hour.
* Show an error message where the meteogram should be if there's an error at login. If the meteogram was populated, it will not show the error message as the user still has 3 days of hourly data to use.
* Only fetch the Weather Canada city data when the dialog opens. It was opening every time the weather config tab was selected.
* Refactor the weather code.
* Show event location next to event start/end time (Issue #68)
* Add a more complete edit event form that can edit the location. Editing date/time, or moving the event to another calendar are not yet implemented and are disabled.
* Show calendar color in New Event Form.
* Use short time format in tooltip for extra timezones like digitalclock.
* Can right click the link to sync login with google calendar in order to copy the url if you use the Brave web browser (Issue #87)

* Bundle the google calendar icon for the config tab icon.
* Add the plasmoidlocaletest script for testing translations
* Fix Typo. "Chose" is past tense, "Choose" is present.

v53 - Febuary 2 2018 2 years ago
* Fix scrolling to current date after all events have loaded.
* Recently, google has updated the google calendar website to a material design, editing an event in the browser would link to the month view instead of the full editor. I've changed the link opened so it's now opening the full event editor.
* Refactored code to draw all event on loading them instead of a slight lag when scrolling when it tries to generate them on demand.
* Because of the refactor, the agenda now has a scrollbar.
* When fetching events, it will now wait a little bit for another calendar before redrawing everything.
* Reuse existing event placeholders instead of deleting them all and generating new ones. This alleviates some of the memory creep (but not all).
* Fix weather column cells not resizing when too small.
* Merge fr translations by @Amathadius.
* Rename the translation folder.

* Added a 20m timer preset, which will hide the 60m preset by default.
* Hide the timer toggle button labels when there isn't enough space.
v50 - October 27 2017 2 years ago

* Added notification sound when an event starts.
* Added ability to toggle event starting notification and sound, and ability to customize which sound.

* Show notification when an event is added or deleted.<br />
* Lots of refactoring needed for supporting different calendar backends.
v48 - July 7 2017 (Requires Plasma 5.6) 2 years ago

* Scale meteogram/agenda icons based on the DPI.
* Show clickable date in agenda for each day in selected month.
* Wait 100ms after receiving events before updating the interface. Should minimize stuttering when events are loading.
v46 - April 27 2017 3 years ago
* Add ability to set the radius of the selected date.
* Fix different sized labels (for 1-9 vs 10-31) in the calendar when the cell height is greater than the width.
* French translations by Amathadius.
v45 - April 22 2017 3 years ago
* Get rid of padding between event summary and the timestamp.
* Polish the Google calendar list in the config. Adding a refresh list button, mark which calendars are read only, and sort the list alphabetically.
* [upstream] Shrink and elide week names like is done with day delegate
v44 - April 8 2017 3 years ago
* Fix "ConfigSerializedString.qml is missing" error when installed via a package manager that downloaded from GitHub by commiting the file.
* Support event specific colors. When a specific event is assigned a color, a colorId is used rather than a hex color (#ffffff). So we package a hardcoded set of colours for now until we download the user selected colors from the API.

* A notification is now displayed when an event is starting.
* Can now delete non-reoccuring events from the context menu.
* Prepare widget for translations (thanks Victor).

* Fix timer overlaying the calendar when using a non-default font size.

Great widget, when it works. It keeps losing contact with Google calendar and won't reconnect. Hasn't worked in a couple of weeks.

But could be even more if we could see the "location" of events in the calendar :)

+I just logged in after I don't know how many years to say THANK YOU for this amazing Plasmoid. It's great!

I use this every day, and it's great. Gives me all I need from a calendar / clock!
+
+Wow. What an impressive widget.
+ Awesome.
It would be great to be able to add an event to Google Calendar by clicking on the calendar day. It is the only thing that could improve. Awesome design
+
+This is by far the best calendar widget offering on the KDE platform. It allows me to sync google calendar without having to go through the fat akondai stack, which is a great choice being provided.
+ awesome! just wondering if there is a way to add multiple google accounts?
+This is a very useful widget. Great for my new install.
+This is the best plasma widget!
+ I really loved it, i was looking for it for days, one of the best kde widgets.
Thank you. it would be best if it works with a desktop calendar program, like KOrganizer, example.
+
+ Simply awesome.
+
+Wonderful app, works seamlessly with google calendar
Hands down the best calendar widget out there!
+very powerful plasmoid. No problems so far. Using on openSUSE leap 15 with Plasma 5.12.5. Only suggestion I'd make is to add google calendar support for reminders and not just events. Possibly add a auto locate function for the weather. Other than that, perfect!
+Great Widget. Congrat!
+
+
works like a charm
Amazing work! Thank you!
+ THANK YOU!
It's my favorite calendar/clock widget so far. A lot of customization and the google calendar and weather sync is great too. For weather service, I needed to search and type manually the city code from OpenWeatherMap. Thank you so much!!
+
+
+
+nice and useful
+
+
+Beautiful addons. Sadly only support google calendar
pretty cool
+ Superb widget

Really lovely widget. But i'd like to link the calendar to KOrganizer instead of google calendar.
Just amazing. Have looked for such a widget for a several years.
Very useful widget, thanks! I use it instead of the default clock widget.
Very Good Job!!
great widget

If you have an "AP" or "ap" in the format, it will use the 12h clock. Eg: "h:mm ap"
If you do not have the "ap", it will use the 24h clock.

Your plasmoid looks absolutely great and it's a shame it can only work with google. Could you add support for caldav calendars if it's not too much work? Would definitely use it then.
Keep up the good work!

You should honestly be using at least Plasma 5.8 though since it's the first "stable" release of Plasma which has Long Term Support. Look into the Kubuntu Backports PPA (or an updated distro).

Great work on this widget! It is one of those rare gems that works well, looks good and is intuitive!
I have just one feature (request?) unless there is a proper way of doing it.
How do you add events to dates that are in the future (as in not this month)
For eg. Adding an event to a date this month is simple, just click on the day that appears in the agenda and type it in. However, if it's to add an event to a date in a month or two, the days do not appear in the agenda list.
(I see only one way - double clicking on the calendar date to open up Google calendar in a browser) I find myself avoiding inputting things into Google Calendar directly as it is not very intuitive. And I'm looking for a simple solution that I can check quickly at a glance on my desktop.
Proposition: By clicking on a date in the Calendar, it makes the day appear in the Agenda, which can then be clicked - to add an event :D
This takes care of inputting events for any dates (this month or in the future)
Thanks for reading!

Ah, good point. I should probably make a clickable button for every single day in the visible month. Forget why I didn't do this initially, probably because of a bug I fixed. Anyways, it's in v47.

One thing I have stumbled upon as well, is when you click on a date in the Agenda: You have the Calendar dropdown box and Textbox. If you click on the Calendar dropdown and have it open for too long as you choose a Calendar, it actually selects the whole widget (changing it to a colour blue) and moves the position of the widget on the desktop. (Following the mouse cursor)
