Hi users, I've enjoyed using roundcube for over a year now, and it's been a great tool. If you're like me, with 1000+ contacts, adding contacts manually to an address book was not something I was up for.
So here's a quick patch I've made, to handle .csv uploads, and adding contacts to the database *This patch is based on 0.1rc1 not the newer 0.2 version (released Nov/07). I cannot guarantee it'll work on the new version.* The patch creates a new directory csv_upload in the root of the RC installation - I know this is not common practice, but it makes updating the rest of the program much easier. I noticed a recent post on here for uploading .csv files server-side and doing one-off address book updates, but here's a glorified version, which will do the following: - Handles file upload - Checks columns for correct data - Adds NEW contacts to the database - Old (already inserted) contacts are ignored - Interface is all via one additional link on the 'address book' page Todo: - Use RC-approved methods of including files - Change add-on's folder structure - Secure the uploading of .csv files. Temp files are currently held one at a time, at $_server_root/imported.csv - Link to the uploading interface via one of the buttons, as opposed to a static link Download the patch at http://www.rmacd.com/downloads/howto/rc-csv/roundcube-csv.patch Download .tar.gz http://www.rmacd.com/downloads/howto/rc-csv/roundcubemail-0.1-rc1-CSV.tar.gz Follow the installation info at http://www.rmacd.com/downloads/howto/add-csv-to-roundcube.php If anyone would like to contribute to this little add-on, please let me know. -- Ronald MacDonald http://www.rmacd.com/ 0777 235 1655
