qcal - a console-based quick calendar for CalDAV

AUR
Project page on Sourcehut

qcal is a quick calendar application for CalDAV servers written in Go. In contrast to other tools it does not cache anything. It can fetch multiple servers / calendars in parallel which makes it quite fast.

Its main purpose is displaying calendar data. Nevertheless it supports basic creation and editing of entries.

Features

• Condensed quick overview of appointments

• Parallel fetching of multiple calendars

• Viewing of iCal subscriptions

• Easy to use filters

• Create, modify and delete appointments

• Import ICS files

• Display ICS files

• Easy setup

New version 0.8.3!

Changes:
* Allow piping of ICS data
* Parallelize calendar listing

It's now very much feature complete.

Re: qcal - a console-based quick calendar for CalDAV

Hello Psic4t, this project seems really cool to me and would increase my productivity... I particularly love the no-cache approach.
But it never actually worked for me. Simple config.json to reproduce:

{
        "Calendars": [
                {
                        "Url":"https://fr.ftp.opendatasoft.com/openscol/fr-en-calendrier-scolaire/Zone-A-B-C-Corse.ics"
                }
        ],
	"Timezone": "Europe/Paris",
        "DefaultNumDays":30
}

cal is indeed listed with

qcal -l

but no event shows (tried with wide -s -e windows)
I also try with my personnal google cal with same result.
v0.8.7 or master. (gentoo user)

Re: qcal - a console-based quick calendar for CalDAV

It seems that the server in your link does not like REPORT http calls. I pushed a new release (0.8.8) to AUR which should fix that.

Can you try if it works for you?

You can write me in the project mailing list here: https://lists.sr.ht/~psic4t/public-inbox

Fixed indeed, thanks for your fast support. I'll use mailing list for future contacts, OK.
