Feature request: simple file-based calendar synchronization
Hi. Thank you for such a great application. May I suggest a feature of simple file-based synchronization? Let me explain the feature in more details: In my view, to implement the synchronization one would typically need:
- Combination of import-to-file/export-from-file operations run by a timer every certain amount of minutes
- A form allowing user to specify folder and file name to synchronize the data into
- Procedure of conflict resolution, which may be as simple as taking the newest data while storing the conflicting data together with newest and raising a notification for the user.
Synchronization software like Synching is available as OpenSource. They may do the rest of the work regarding moving the data from one machine to another without sharing the data with third companies. Also there are encfs-based solutions one may use to handle the encryption.
Just noticed another request regarding synchronization https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/Simple-Calendar/issues/2. Note, that the approach suggested here doesn't require any usage of google apps
And here is the third request on the topic https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/Simple-Calendar/issues/81
Hello. Ye, I plan adding caldav and google sync, such file-based isnt on the roadmap. Ill leave it here as a future feature request, but dont really expect it anytime soon.
Please support CALDAV sync! (eigther directly or via acaldav or davdroid) The latter one can be done by simply integrating android's build-in calendar storage into your app. The sync will then be taken care by 3rd party apps like acaldav, davdroid or others.
I was about to ask for this feature but found that thread.
It could be as simple as a checkbox "Auto-export ICS on every change" and the file path somewhere in the settings but it would enable an entire workflow for us Syncthing users and maybe for other people who would like to add some scripting to their scheduling setup.
Anyway, thank you for the absolutely best Android calendar app, much appreciated.
