Hi!

The following statements in .reminders aren't included in the generated .ics properly:

REM [moondate(0)-1] MSG ☸️ 六齋日
REM [moondate(0)] MSG ☸️ 六齋日
REM [moondate(1)] MSG ☸️ 六齋日
REM [moondate(2)-1] MSG ☸️ 六齋日
REM [moondate(2)] MSG ☸️ 六齋日
REM [moondate(3)] MSG ☸️ 六齋日

REM [moondate(0)] MSG 🌑 Neumond
REM [moondate(1)] MSG 🌓 Erste Hälfte
REM [moondate(2)] MSG 🌕 Vollmond
REM [moondate(3)] MSG 🌗 Zweite Hälfte

REM AT [sunrise()] MSG ☀️↑ Sonnenaufgang
REM AT [sunset()] MSG ☀️↓ Sonnenuntergang

The first occurrence of a reminder is show (e.g.: sunrise), but the following days are omitted.

Consequently the sunset reminders are not changing, time-wise, i.e. showing the same time for every day. Are this known limitations?

Can provide excerpts from .ics file (stdout), if necessary.

Best wishes.

Hi!

I installed from Git's master, and the problem persists, after importing to macOS' Calendar.app:

o Dawn is only shown for the first occurrence
o I have to specify a shorter time period, i.e. "-m 2" to get a resulting .ics, that includes the "moondate" reminders correctly

The resulting .ics shows the dates correctly, I guess:

For Dawn it looks like a bug in Calendar.app, the time is shown correctly on Android using DAVX5 and Etar. Anything else that needs fixing here?

Thank you for asking. Actually yes:

o The following (included) reminders don't show up properly:

PUSH
REM 29 Feb MSG 🍎 [d_holyday], [d_yold] YOLD.%
REM SKIP MSG 🍎 [d_weekday], [d_dayofseason] [d_season] [d_yold] YOLD [iif(d_is_holyday, "% "+d_holyday+"!","")]
POP

The inital reported .ics is not showing up properly in other platforms, too:

It seems it is not only related to Calendar.app :-(

Regarding the discordian example, that is listed as a known limitation in the readme. Btw. please fill unrelated issues as separate bugs and try to include minimal working examples.
Closing this as not a bug in python-remind. For the display issues you can probably write a script that converts the rdates to separate events as a workaround.

Hi!

As I said - thank you for your time!

I'm contacting Apple and Infomaniak Support. In the meantime, I noticed in the minimal working example provided, that "Sunset" isn't also changing times.

There is only one date & time and not RDATES like in "Dawn". Should I open a separate bug report for this?

Best wishes.

Ah, O.K.: "Sunset" and "Dawn" are correctly included, if I change the command line switches from:

~/Library/Python/3.9/bin/rem2ics -z Europe/Berlin -s -2 -m 2 reminder

to

~/Library/Python/3.9/bin/rem2ics -z Europe/Berlin -m 3 reminder

My mistake - please excuse the noise...

O.K. - last comment on this already close issue: RDATE doesn't seem to work in different (online) PIM solutions, /except/ calendar.google.com.

Even Microsoft, who co-authored the RFC for the iCalendar format, isn't supporting RDATE :-(

Please see screenshots attached:
