Thread: RoundCube Calendar (jQuery Calendar)

Good day:

I have been trying to get CalDAV support working with the plugin in the latest GIT-checkout. Server is DAViCal 0.9.9-0 on Ubuntu Hardy [1], but the calendar is not populated, probably due to a missing piece in the authentication. Is the login with current rouncube credentials working for CalDAV, or are those config lines a placeholder for future functionality?

Working caldav support would be fantastic for Roundcube, even if on a readonly basis for now.

Thanks, Achim

you can check Rosali's version. There is possibility to work on the same calendar from RC and TB where RC is 'calendar server'. Rosali's version is supported. The version from Github... I don't know.

I looked at Rosali's version, and unfortunately CalDAV is also not support, as per her own comment: jQuery Fullcalendar plugin (forked by rosali).

Is anybody here aware of a simple way to visualise (not even edit!) caldav calendars?

Thanks, Achim

Fullcalendar is not supporting caldav. You can try webcalendar from Rosali's trunk (I don't know if it supports caldav...)

To clarify: CalDAV support is possible if someone would code a suitable backend driver. In the original calendar plugin there was a CalDAV backend under development. I think the contact data of the developer is anywhere in Lazlo's github package.

For someone with CalDAV skills it would be easy to code something to give read access only. This could be done by coding a script which returns events as a json encoded array and to show this as a calendar layer.

Dear Lazlo (and other contributes),

Let me first thank you for creating this roundcube calendar.

I got a debian testing roundcube 0.3.1-5 installation and installed rc-calendar as described bellow.

I also use mozilla sunbird with the same user credentials and with sunbird I am able to write and change caldav events.

However with rc-calendar I can read and see the events but I can't change or create new events!

I checked my apache logs but I cant find any errors, however I don’t see any PUT or PROPFIND events, only REPORT events for roundcube.

How will I be able to read and write to my caldav calender with rc-calendar?

Code:

wget http://download.github.com/LazloNL-roundcube-calendar-af961ec.tar.gz
tar xvzf LazloNL-roundcube-calendar-af961ec.tar.gz
mv LazloNL-roundcube-calendar-af961ec/calendar calendar
mv calendar /usr/share/roundcube/plugins/
ls -hal /usr/share/roundcube/plugins/
cp /usr/share/roundcube/plugins/calendar/config/config.inc.php.dist /usr/share/roundcube/plugins/calendar/config/config.inc.php
vim /usr/share/roundcube/plugins/calendar/config/config.inc.php

Code:

# egrep -w rcmail_config  /usr/share/roundcube/plugins/calendar/config/config.inc.php
$rcmail_config['backend'] = "caldav";
$rcmail_config['default_view'] = "month";
$rcmail_config['time_format'] = "HH:mm";
$rcmail_config['timeslots'] = 1;
$rcmail_config['first_day'] = 1;
$rcmail_config['first_hour'] = 9;
$rcmail_config['categories'] = array('Personal' => 'c0c0c0', 
$rcmail_config['caldav_server'] = 'https://secure.companyname.nl/davical/caldav.php';
$rcmail_config['caldav_username'] = 'companyname';
$rcmail_config['caldav_password'] = 'secret';
$rcmail_config['caldav_calendar'] = 'agenda';
$rcmail_config['caldav_use_roundcube_login'] = false;
$rcmail_config['caldav_loginwithout_tld'] = false;

Having a rcube calendar work with Davical would be fantastic: one step closer to a Gmail replacement!
