[Support WITHDRAWN] GCal-Search: Google Calendar Event contact sensor/switch

[TN_Oldman (Don)]

@mnestor or anybody able to explain this?

I have all day events. They start at midnight like their supposed to. Then end at 6:02 pm every time on 2 different searches both with all day events.

[mnestor (Mike Nestor)]

Sounds like a few things changef in the platform lately. As I no longer even have a Smartthings hub I can’t be of any help. If someone wants to send me a new hub though I’ll look into it

[TN_Oldman (Don)]

If I had one more it would already be on its way.

I was just curious, hoping you or @MichaelS (smarter people than me on this) would have an idea.

I do appreciate the efforts you and others do to make these apps.

[MichaelS (Micheal)]

I have stopped using this app as my use case went away…sorry I can’t help either.

[mnestor (Mike Nestor)]

Yeah my use case is pretty much gone too. I’m using a system now that detects if either my wife or I is home with 100% reliability and I use a smartwatch for my alarm clock so I really have no use for it anymore either.

RE-RELEASE OF GCal-Search!

[UPDATED 3/27/18] GCal Search

GCal Search UPDATED gCal Event Sensor version 20180327.1 : eventTime now works for all-day events added eventTitle attribute added Power capability (toggles between 0 and 1 on each refresh) - for use with webCoRE bc defined subscriptions to custom attributes of virtual devices don’t work UPDATED gCal Event Sensor version 20180327.2 added startOffset and endOffset attributes; these can be set by new commands setStartoffset() and setEndoffset() (Keep in mind that if you modify these attribute, they will always override the offSets in the gCal Trigger parent app!) There are two smartapps: Gcal Search (latest version is 20170223.1) Gcal Search Trigger (latest version is 20170223.1) and two DTHs: Gcal Event Sensor (latest version is 20180327.2) Gcal Presence Sensor (latest …

This re-release fixes the opening-on-days-it-should-not bug:

@Tino_Race

All day events open at midnight on days when they should not, then close 10 minutes later. It’s like the app knows it’s the wrong day but it takes 10 minutes to realise this by which time the switch is already open

Just installed this new version and testing. I found a few quirks that I would like to bring to your attention… Again, thanks for bringing this back!

1. Noticed that the App will not allow a “New GCal Search” to have a “blank” or empty search string. Throws an exception when saving. Interesting, you can define a “New GCal Search” with a search string defined like ‘x’ and successfully save the request. Then go back in to the same search and remove the search term and leave empty.
2. The device tile when a favorite in a room has a large “black block” over the main display. The icon is displayed accurately when entering the details of the tile.

Define a New Gcal Search leaving the search box empty and pressing ‘Done’.

Error Message Displayed and cannot continue unless you place a search term in the box.

I have to assume… support withdrawn meant development of this is dead?

[mnestor (Mike Nestor)]

Someone else has picked up development. You can find it here: [UPDATED 3/27/17] GCal Search
