Hi ports@ people
Any reccomendations of ports/ that may manage phone & address booke,
& import/export to Fritz Routers & Android phone app ? Should I
be using a stack of vCards format as a common intermediary to edit
the master with vi, or some port ?
My large phone+address book has for 20 years been vi editable in my own
format:
http://www.berklix.com/~jhs/src/bsd/jhs/bin/public/phone/
which supports lots of additional fields way beyond phone & address,
& Makefiles export to 3 device formats:
BSD ISDN i4b S0 card man(8) isdnd
ports/comms/gnokii nokia etc mobiles
ports/misc/estic Istec 1008 etc (PBX=LCO=TK Anlage)
I now want to export to 2 new device formats:
Fritz routers that export & import in xml format, sample appended.
Android phone app. Format unexamined yet
I expect to lash up an export from phone.c to Fritz XML,
but probably you can reccomend some nicer standard ports &/or formats ?
Didn't there used to be some [kde?] or similar tool in a larger package ?
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports/ gives with
"phone book"
ports/misc/telbook
in Perl and uses the GTK+ 2 p no mention of xml
ports/deskutils/tel/
Entries are stored in a simple CSV file. This eases import
and export with common spread sheet applications like
Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice.org Calc
"address book"
deskutils/dlume
stores your contacts in XML format
Export to CSV and HTML formats is also available
deskutils/gaddr
holds addresses and any other information you want to know
about a person
deskutils/py-pycarddav
CardDAV CLI client
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CardDAV
based on WebDAV, which is based on HTTP, and it uses vCard
for contact data.
mail/evolution
Big, databases/evolution-data-server make broke.
pkg install worked .... starts with mail
mail/horde-turba
supports storing contacts in SQL, LDAP, Kolab, and IMSP
"phone numbers"
devel/py-phonenumbers
I guess if it were me; based on as much of your code as I examined, and
the ports mentioned above. I'd probably go with: deskutils/dlume
or perhaps better, cobble my own.
Managing the numbers, and associated info in CSV format seems like it would
be almost trivial. In my mind could nearly accomplish the whole matter with
awk(1).
In fact, I'm currently managing a database with over 9 million records,
and extract, and format most of it with awk. *Super* fast, and much easier
than sed(1). Which is what I was originally attempting to do it with.
My .02ยข FWIW
Cheers,
Julian
