reGenda is read only (for now) agenda app for reMarkable tablets. I would like to add edit features, but it's in the future.
Currently, reGenda only works with caldav servers that require login, such as Nextcloud (only tested with Nextcloud so far). Other calendars specified by url or Google calendar for example are not supported and I don't guarantee they will be, but I know they might be more attractive to others. Connection with iCloud should work, see configuration section for more info.
Please do not use calendars with the same names, this will confuse the app.
- Show your day based agenda
- Show event details
- Show events from multiple calendars
- You can choose which calendar will be displayed
- You can choose language of UI (only English and Czech are currently supported)
- Fast time travel by selecting day from month based view
- Fast return to today
- Show events from multiple caldav servers
Maybe more, check preview or try it your self.
reGenda can be installed from Toltec by this command:
opkg install regenda
See configuration section, if installing for the first time.
You will probably not be able to install all dependencies if you do not have installed Toltec on your reMarkable.
- git
- python3
- python3-pip
- python3-lxml
- simple
- display (for reMarkable 2)
- some more python modules that you have to install via pip (see Installation bellow)
Can by installed by:
opkg install git python3 python3-pip python3-lxml simple # display
-
Download repository to directory of your choice:
git clone https://github.com/tenJirka/reGenda.git
-
Install python modules:
cd reGenda pip install -r requirements.txt
-
Create your config file:
cp config.yml.example config.yml
-
Edit your config file - see configuration section in this README.
-
Move config file to it's place:
mkdir -p /opt/etc/reGenda mv config.yml.example /opt/etc/reGenda/config.yml
-
Run reGenda:
chmod x run.py ./run.py
cd "reGenda dir"
git pull
Servers that reGegenda communicates with can't be set up from UI, so you have to edit config file before using it.
This should be necessary to do only once.
Config file destination should be /opt/etc/reGenda/config.yml
. Default location of example config file is /opt/etc/reGenda/config.yml.example
.
If you are installing from package, post install script will create config file for you if not exists yet, but you have to fill information about your servers and your users.
You can do this by this command:
nano /opt/etc/reGenda/config.yml # or different text editor like vim
Your configuration file should look like this:
timezone: UTC # see https://mljar.com/blog/list-pytz-timezones/ for all available timezones
sources:
Personal: # Name of server (can be anything, but have to be unique in this config)
type: server # Just keep this, it's preparation for calendars specified by url
user: "your user name"
url: "your server url"
password: "your password"
#Work: # Another server or just different user
# type: server
# user: "your user name"
# url: "your server url"
# password: "your password"
Setting the time zone in the configuration file is optional, if not set, the TZ system variable or the system time zone will be used (since version 0.0.3).
Here is an example for iCloud settings.
sources:
iCloud: # Name of server (can be anything, but have to be unique in this config)
type: server # Just keep this, it's preparation for calendars specified by url
url: https://caldav.icloud.com/
user: <your-apple-id-here>
password: <app-specific-password>
Thanks @jedahan for this example. More information can be found here.
Maybe this section should be named "Things I would like you to knew", but it wont be so attractive, so…
reGenda don't save any information to device, so wherever you change date, it have to download events first.
If the app launch is very slow it can depends on multiple things.
- Your server can be slow
- Your Internet connection can be slow
- Try charge up your remarkable, I have suspicion that it can have impact on lunch time, not sure why
Lunch takes around 10 seconds to me, but I experience one day when it takes slightly below 40, and I wasn't able to find out why. Lunch time changes even when trying different account on same server.
Because I'm from Czechia and Czech is matter of the heart for me, so the app was originally only in Czech, English was added later before publishing.
That's because I developed reGenda for my self originally and I use CalDav. It would be impractical develop app that I can't use.
You should checkout remarkable.guide at first place.
reGenda uses by me written Simple wrapper for Python that you can find here, or you can check similar Python module that I didn't know already exists Carta.
