Enable scripting to manage contacts and groups
From @GoogleCodeExporter on May 31, 2015 11:23
Enhancement request: Enable scripting (in Python and other tools) to
manage contacts and contact groups directly on the phone.
Specifically, would like the ability to create, replace, update and delete
contacts, including photo attributes.
Also would like the ability to create and edit contact groups.
Also, the ability to add a new contact specifically to a group directly on
the phone.
Also, delete all contacts for a group, to enable a fresh reload from
external sources.
Also, toggle sync of contacts, globally and by group, directly on the
phone.

As I understand the problem, giving access to the content provider API should
solve
this issue.
If there is a way to build, read and write 'content://' uri, all of the above
will be
possible.

To help the problem along, I've hacked up a quick and dirty Contacts API to
serve as
the jumping-off point for any further development.
Please find attached a patch for AndroidFacade.java to provide a simple
(read-only)
contacts-querying API.
IMPORTANT: Please note this patch relies on the suggested fix I submitted for
Issue
288 (http://code.google.com/p/android-scripting/issues/detail?id=288).

Thanks for the patch. Although code will probably end up in different file as
we tend
to keep things organized a bit... :)
I'll just wait for @Damon to accept the feature request...

@MeanEYE.rcf: No problem - I debated creating a new "ContactsFacade" class, but
I'm
not too familiar with the ASE codebase yet, so I thought I'd throw what I had
out
there as a starting point. ;-)
I'm actually interested in hacking on ASE some more and submitting more
patches/bug-fixes/enhancements, but I've never contributed to a Google code
project
before - can you tell me if there's an approved way to do it, or is "attaching
patches to issues" convenient enough for you guys?

Is it currently possible?

Somehow, am still the owner of this feature request, although I am no longer
involved with the project. Someone else should take a look at it.
Sorry chobi.0ne.

It's fine. I found the way to do it for my needs via gdata.contacts . It does
everything I need online via google services and then syncs with my phone.
Thank you.
