termux-contact-list in vcard format

Feature description termux-contact-list output in vcard format instead of json

and other fields than only name and phone

I second the request for other fields. And maybe have the number section as a list, as some people have multiple numbers (I added a test contact, only one number returned).

Anyways, you can parse the Json yourself and convert it to the VCARD format.

Python Code Example (Tested, works with current Json output. Will need to be adjusted if new fields are added):

import json 
import subprocess 

contacts = json.loads(subprocess.getoutput("termux-contact-list")) 

#Contains working VCARD format
vcard = "\n".join([f"BEGIN:VCARD\nVERSION:2.1\nN:{';'.join(x['name'].split(' ')[::-1])}\nFN:{x['name']}\nTEL;CELL:{x['number']}\nEND:VCARD" for x in contacts])

python -c 'import json;import sys;print("\n".join([f"BEGIN:VCARD\nVERSION:4.0\nFN:{x["name"]}\nTEL;CELL:{x["number"]}\nEND:VCARD" for x in json.loads(sys.stdin.read())]))' <contacts.txt >contacts.vcf
