Any node ical reader packages which work with rrule?

[ghost]

For this demo calendar: the output looks like this on a calendar reader:

But from various ical readers like ical.js, and its various forks, all I get is the first event, and nothing if the first events of a series starts in the past.
ical.js appears unmaintained, although it DOES use this rrule library, it appears locked to v2.4.1

On 2018-10-09, Event repeating monthly on 2nd tuesday at 10am
On 2018-10-10, Event repeating weekly on a Wednesday at 11am
On 2018-10-11, Single event on 11th October

Code is as below - a few extras as I'm not interested in dates in the past, and it's nice to have things in upcoming date order, rather than random

const ical = require('ical');
var dateNow = new Date();

const url = "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/ssjqjrg27h9mqqctfnr5kscmrk%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics";

  ical.fromURL(url, {}, function (err, data) {
    var ttsorted = [];
    for (const k in data) {
      const ev = data[k];
      const eventStart = new Date(ev.start);
      if (data.hasOwnProperty(k)) {
      if (eventStart.getTime() >= dateNow.getTime()) {
          const tts = `On ${ev.start.toISOString().slice(0,10)}, ${ev.summary} `;
          ttsorted.push(tts);
        }
     }
    }
    ttsorted.sort();
    for (const events of ttsorted) {
      console.log(events);
    }
  });

Hi, this library can help with generating a series of Dates from an RRULE, but does not offer eg. other "extended" calendar scheduling functionality (eg contact info, location, etc.). What functionality specifically are you looking for?

Thank you - well, just as per the original post really, I need start time, description, location for recurring events. From what you have said, if it does not include location etc then this might not be of use.

I read that https://github.com/peterbraden/ical.js/ uses rrule, but it does not handle any repeating events.

This library covers a rather specialized subset of the ical spec, but could be used as a part of a full implementation. Start time is fine, but description and location you'll have to manage outside of this library. I recommend using a parser like https://github.com/mozilla-comm/ical.js/ to parse the data, and rrule can help out with generating recurrences from any RRULE string.
