AttributeError: 'Calendar' object has no attribute '_unused'

[gccq]

After successfully processing (All months):
get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "SRC./fb2cal.py", line 813, in
File "SRC./fb2cal.py", line 126, in main

AttributeError: 'Calendar' object has no attribute '_unused'

No ICS file is created. (Tried creating both local files as well as google drive)

Not sure whats going on! Can someone help?

Hey @sukrutonline,
After looking into it, ._unused is a function in ics-v0.4. You're likely using v0.6.
(For context, I was running this in Ubuntu bash with Windows Subsystem for Linux). I uninstalled the v0.6 module and replaced it with the v0.4 by running
pip3 uninstall ics
pip3 uninstall ics==0.4
Program executed successfully after that.

That being said, @mobeigi is an update to account for the new ics version possible?

[mobeigi]

The ._unused approach was used to add custom iCal properties to the ICS file since that was the only supported way to do so using the ics module.

It looks like it has been renamed in v0.6:
ics-py/ics-py@79bd497

I think the best approach is to rename the field in fb2cal and update requirements.txt to require v0.6+ (currently it required v0.4+).

@calvinle Care to take out a PR for this? 😄

Hey @calvinle & @mobeigi,

Thanks for the response!,
After installing v0.4 with your suggestion, It works flawlessly!

pip3 uninstall ics
pip3 install ics==0.4

Thanks!
