Add option to only resync future events (but keeping the past events) #292

Closed FoxtrotSierra6829 closed 1 year ago

FoxtrotSierra6829 commented 1 year ago

My source calendar unfortunately removes past events from more than a month ago. For future reference I want to keep them though. Still I need the ability to sync the removal of future events.

Currently there is an existing option to only sync future events:

var onlyFutureEvents = false; // If you turn this to "true", past events will not be synced (this will also removed past events from the target calendar if removeEventsFromCalendar is true)

As I need to have removeEventsFromCalendar set to true in order to be able to remove future events, this will also remove past events from the calendar though.

Have a look at #168 this might be what you are looking for.

This solution seems to be working for me. Can this be integrated into master in a future PR?

@jonas0b1011001 - while this is definitely a niche request, it seems there are about 5 users that wanted something similar. Maybe worth adding an option for it? Thoughts?

(maybe once https://github.com/derekantrican/GAS-ICS-Sync/discussions/311 is completed)
