Hi Guido,

thanks for the help! If the script gets enough interest I can sort out
an easy installation method for it.

I got iCalendar from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/icalendar, untarred it
and ran `sudo python setup.py install'

Got pytz from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytz/. It comes as an egg
file so you just run `sudo easy-install pytz-2013b-py2.7.egg'

This command should get you going:
`./ical2org.py input.ics > output.org

Hope this helps,


Guido

Aitor,

I would like to try this out but, as I am not a python user, I have no
idea how to get the two bits you indicate being necessary (icalendar,
pytz) installed.  I have installed python-dateutil and python-pycalendar
as these looked the most obvious candidates for icalendar but no
luck.  Searching the repositories for pytz draws a blank as well.

I am using Ubuntu.

Anyway help would be most welcome.

indeed. Should I've known there were already so many implementations of

Similar here, I just checked Worg. However I had some special wishes 
unlikely to be covered, so I was prepared to hack anyway.

@aitor if you have some info how your impl compares let the list know.

Yes, more or less.

We now have (if I did not miscount someting) 3 python, 2 elisp and one 
ruby implementation of ical2org. I did not even look for those named in 
less obvious ways, although I know there is at least one.


It's going to be confusing if we add them all.

[O] ical2org.py

2013-05-12 Thread aitor
Hi,

I've implemented a little script which converts ics files to
org-mode. You can find the script here:

https://github.com/asoroa/ical2org.py

It is equivalent to the awk script from Eric S. Fraga located here:

http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-google-sync.html

It's main differences being:

- it only converts the events which fall into a timeframe (by default 3
  months before and after the current day)

- it handles recurrent events of 'dayly', 'weekly' and 'yearly' types.

- it also deals correctly with timezones etc.


best,
aitor
