I would start by looking at the Folks library/API - which is what GNOME
Contacts uses

Hi,
I suppose so, but I do not know for sure. I do not use syncevolution,
it is not managed here, it's a standalone project (
https://www.syncevolution.org).

Again, it's a question for the syncevolution developers, not here.

As I said, the syncevolution is an unneeded overhead from my point of
view. You can configure most things directly in Evolution (or by using
evolution-data-server API) and use those ESource-s instead.

Yes, you're right. ;)

As the last questions: 
1. The `syncevolution` is two-way synchronizing tools? I mean always we 
synchronize two things with each other. Remote to Local and Local to Remote. I 
want to say if I change the local store (ex: Write to locale store contact), so 
these changes will be applied to the remote?
 
2. As I said I have some C++ applications that should be able to working with 
the local store via APIs of `evolution-data-server`. In addition I should run 
some CLI commands for `configure`, `sync` and so on with `syncevolution` cli 
app. Is there any library for these acts that I can use them instead of running 
the CLI commands?

Right. :) (only it's "evolution-data-server", not "service", but it's
just a typo).

Google was only an example, maybe fastmail or any other online provider.

Generally, I have some limitations that I don't want to use `Evolution` or 
`GOA`. 

As a result: 
* I should install `syncevolution` and `evolution-data-service`.
* set-up it for synchronization - my Online account and local store.
* Access to the local store (Data: contact, calendar and ...) with APIs of 
`evolution-data-service` (`ECalClient`, `EBookClient`).

Right?

Hi,
being this about Google services, you can avoid all of that and use
libgdata to access Google data directly.

You can also avoid syncevolution (it's an unnecessary overhead in your
case, from my point of view), simply configure Google account either
directly in Evolution, or in GNOME Online Accounts (where you can
select what data should be synchronized). With that you can access the
data using EBookClient, eventually ECalClient, as mentioned earlier,
because, in both cases, you'll see your calendars/books/... in anything
what accesses the data using evolution-data-server API.

Milan

Hi Milan,

Thank you for your quick reply.

In fact, I want to sync my online contacts (ex: Gmail contacts or ...) to 
local. Then I want to access to the local store for add/remove/edit/get 
contacts in local and again sync them. I need to do these acts 
(add/remove/edit/get) in my C++ applications.

So my components:
* syncevolution for syncing the remote data to the local store
* A middle layer for access to the local store (ex: read/write contacts)
* C++ Applications: they have access via this middle layer. 

And now: what's the middle layer? evolution-data-service? `libsyncevolution`? 
or any other library for access to local store?

Regards.
Hamzeh

Hi,
what do you mean with 'integrate', please? That's important, because
syncevolution synchronizes remote data to local store, which is way
different from accessing the data it synchronized.

> Is there any document about them? How to? Where? Example? 

Again, it depends on your use case. What kind of data do you want to
access? Being it calendar related or address book related? Apart of
reading developer documentation for EBookClient and/or ECalClient, you
may find these links eventually helpful too:
