Reminder notifications not being added when creating an event with googlecl

What steps will reprouce the problem? 1.add an event using the following command google calendar add "meet Jim today 3:00pm" 2. 3. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Expect to create an event with the default reminders. The event is created but it does not add any reminders. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? What version of gdata-python-client (aka python-gdata)? Using gdata-2.0.10 and googlecl 0.9.8 Please provide any additional information below. When I create an event from the web interface in my default calendar it automatically adds the default reminders to the event. Same thing is true for when an event is added via SMS. But when I add an event from googlecl it creates an event but does not add the reminders. I have uninstalled and reinstalled gdata and googlecl but the problem is still there.

My issue 205 is a dupe of this.

Turns out this isn't (properly) supported, but I'm working on a fix. Sorry it took so long to get to!

Alright, could some intrepid users try out r348 in the trunk? You should be able to use --reminder to set a reminder. Unfortunately, it seems impossible to get your default reminder time, but doing --reminder 20m should add one of each of your default reminders to the event during calendar add.

On the upside, you can so something wacky like --reminder 0.6w for 3/5ths of a week advance notice!

(Tip: Use the config file ~/.googlecl/config to set your default reminder time)

Let me know if you run into any problems!

How I can try it? I don't see any "download" option Thank you very much for fix!

Thanks for picking this up! Running into some problems.

Ran python setup.py install in trunk r348 Error when executing google:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/google", line 58, in LOG = logging.getLogger(googlecl.LOGGER_NAME) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'LOGGER_NAME'

Gdata 1.2.4 Python 2.6.5 Ubuntu 10.04

Thanks

Ah, I suspect it's loading the old googlecl library.

To test this, try:

$ mkdir test_directory $ python setup.py install --home test_directory --record files.txt $ cd test_directory/lib/python $ ../../bin/google calendar add "etc, etc" --reminder etc.

Then you can remove all the files installed via rm -rf test_directory. (consult files.txt to make sure you got them all)

Ok, so i didn't manage to get things working the way you discribed.

But here is how i got it working:

For debian based systems: (!you might have to install subversion first) $ svn checkout http://googlecl.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ googlecl-read-only $ apt-get remove googlecl $ cd /path_to/googlecl-read-only $ python setup.py install

now try $ google calendar add "test at 16h today" --reminder 20m

Hope this helps!

Thanks again for adding this functionality!

Hi there,

I have just used the following command to create an event with a reminder:

$ google calendar add "Test event" --reminder 10m

It creates the event WITH the reminder just fine, BUT I get no sms notification. I have configured the mobile phone on my google account correctly as I receive an sms if I create the same event "by hand".

Could this be happening because the event is being added with googlecl?

Thanks in advance, please reply.
