(the WebDAV method is > considered insecure by google) It’s probably worth mentioning that libgdata[1] can list your Google Calendars, and has recently been upgraded to support v3 of the Google API (the latest). *However*, if you can achieve what you want with CalDAV and the methods given by Milan, I would strongly suggest going with that. It allows for more code re-use, and the EDS CalDAV code is more mature than libgdata. In any case, please report bugs (to EDS[2] or libgdata[3]) for any missing features you require, so that the amount of code we can share is maximised. :-) Philip [1]: https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/libgdata [2]: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=evolution-data-server [3]: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=libgdata signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ evolution-hackers mailing list evolution-hackers@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers

Hi, there was added this very recently in the code [1], only the development version contains it, thus it'll be part of the evolution-data-server 3.18.0. There is one special issue with the Google server related to shared calendars added by the user in the Google's Web UI. To have them advertised also with the WebDAV discovery the users should enable them for it first. Erick, a gnome-calendar developer, found this here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25669144/google-caldav-access-to-shared-calendars which mentions a direct URL for the setting here: https://www.google.com/calendar/syncselect Please note that it's a special behaviour of Google, it has nothing to do with evolution-data-server or any other client using WebDAV/CalDAV. Of course, Google's API doesn't need any such setting. > -Is there any specific way to connect to Google Calendar through > libedataserver and sync those calendars too? (the WebDAV method is > considered insecure by google) I'd not say they consider the CalDAV method insecure, it's the authentication type, plain/password, which they consider insecure and may abandon in the future. Evolution-data-server's CalDAV calendar backend can use OAuth2 token, but evolution itself doesn't know how to get to them in other way than by asking GNOME Online Accounts for it. That means, if your application will be able to provide OAuth2 token to the evolution-data-server, then you can use it and it'll work. I'm only afraid that you'd need to write some external module for evolution -source-registry, similar to [2], to be able to do it. The CalDAV URL also changes when using the OAuth2 token, it's located at: apidata.googleusercontent.com/caldav/v2//events/ instead of google.com/calendar/dav//events/ Hope it helps, Milan [1] https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-data-server/tree/libedataserver/e-webdav-discover.h https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-data-server/tree/libedataserverui/e-webdav-discover-widget.h [2] https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-data-server/tree/modules/google-backend https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-data-server/tree/modules/gnome-online-accounts ___ evolution-hackers mailing list evolution-hackers@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
[Evolution-hackers] [evolution-data-server: WebDAV] Get list of all calendars for user
Hi everyone! I'm actually helping to develop the "Maya" calendar project ( https://launchpad.net/maya ). Maya is the default calendar that comes with ElementaryOS. We have already implemented support for individual WebDAV-based calendars (it was fairly easy using evolution-data-server and libedataserver) but is not so easy with multiple-calendar users AND google users. I want users to be able to select what calendars they wants to sync and add support to sync google calendar in the same way (multiple-or-single calendar syncs). So my two questions are: -Is there any way to retrieve a calendars list with libedataserver for WebDAV-based users? -Is there any specific way to connect to Google Calendar through libedataserver and sync those calendars too? (the WebDAV method is considered insecure by google) Thanks for your time! ___ evolution-hackers mailing list evolution-hackers@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
