Contacts CardDav - automatic setup and sync through this script
-
@Rustic did not try with radicale, is it a nextcloud/owncloud variant ?
where did the script failed exactly ?
do you have the console return ? -
@tonton_ I tried again, this time on my Lenovo Tab M10 HD, and it worked fine.
Before I tried on a RedMi Note 9 Pro and it didn't work but I cant get the console return because I went back to LineageOs 21 and on 2n mobile I have PostmarketOs gnome-mobile.
It would be nice to have the calendar synced as well.
Thanks so much. -
@Rustic
nice that it worked at least, don't hesitate to report the command output if it fails again
and concerning the calendar, i didn't implement it because it works out of the box (for me at least) with UT account system -
@tonton_ Adding radicale calendar does not work. The calendar is being added but it does not sync.
If at least it would be possible to import a .ics from within the calendar app that would be also nice. -
@Rustic don't have a lot of time for now, but you could try to use this script :
https://gist.github.com/vanyasem/379095d25ac350676fc70c42efe17c8c
after removing all contact related lines, and cron related (no more cron on focal)If this works for you tell me, i could try to include it in the script (with the auto sync and sync button features) no garanty i'll have time though, sorry !
if you make it work, something like this should launch the sync :
syncevolution --sync two-way $CONTACTS_CONFIG_NAMEwith $CONTACTS_CONFIG_NAME being the input you set in the script
tell me if it works for you !Oh and radicale calendar, if caldav, should work natively, so you can also fill a bugreport for this if you have time

@tonton_ It worked. This is the command output:

Comparison was impossible. -
I guess in order to sync this cal I'll have to erase .cache/syncevolution and then run the script again.
At least it worked.
Thanks so much. -
@Rustic
no you should just be able to run this command (didn't test it though) :syncevolution --sync two-way $CONTACTS_CONFIG_NAMEreplace the $CONTACTS_CONFIG_NAME by the name you gave to your db, try it, if it works you can put this command in a desktop file (to have an icon to sync manually in your ut launcher) or a systemd timer to auto sync ! (you can take a look at what does my script for these)
line 131 to 140 for the desktop file and line 148 to 183 for the systemd timer/service files -
@tonton_ Thank you for this work.
LINMOB says that there are improvements to CardDAV. I wonder if they are referring to your work here?
-
I dont think so, my script is merely a setup helper for the existing backend ! I think they are refering to lionel s work on the new contact backend ! Take a look at last ut q&a video where he showcased it, it looks awesome !
-
Thanks a lot for that script. It worked great for me.
