Greetings, I am working on Gwibber - microblogging client and one of the ideas that has come up is using EDS for storing Gwibber contacts. I looked into evolution-python bindings and it seems that I can pull this off. However, I have two problems.
Creating new address book, it seems that python bindings for evolution don't have a way for creating a new, empty address book. Or I don't know how to use ebook.new_system_address_book() :) I'd like to create a new address book for start, so I don't plow into default one, creating mess. Second, more complicated problem is with storing Twitter data in EDS. Apart from the regular, name, nickname, website, ... I would need to store if a contact is a friend or a follower and a twitter UID. For a start I could use few 'rarely used' fields, but this would be a silly workaround. In the future I see some more integration between Gwibber and Evolution. For example you could follow or unfollow a user on Twitter (or any other supported microblogging platform) simply by clicking a check box in the address book. Right now, I would just like to store this info somewhere. Ideas are more than welcome.
