Cal::DAV - a CalDAV client
my $cal = Cal::DAV->new( user => $user, pass => $pass, url => $url);
# the ics data will be fetched automatically if it's there
# ... or you can parse some ics
$cal->parse(filename => $data);
# cal now has all the methods of Data::ICal
# you can now monkey around with the object
# saves the updated calendar
$cal->save;
# deletes the calendar
$cal->delete;
# lock the file on the server
$cal->lock;
# unlock the file on the server
$cal->unlock
# steal the lock
$cal->steal_lock;
# also
$cal->forcefully_unlock_all
# and
$cal->lockdiscovery
# resyncs it with the server
$cal->get;
# Get the underlying HTTP::DAV object
my $dav = $cal->dav;
"Cal::DAV" is actually a very thin wrapper round "HTTP::DAV" and "Data::ICal" but it may gain more functionality later and, in the mean time, serves as something that
In order to test you need to define three environment variables: "CAL_DAV_USER", "CAL_DAV_PASS" and "CAL_DAV_URL_BASE" which points to a DAV collection that the user supplied has write permissions for.
It should be noted that, at the moment, I'm having problems finding a CalDAV server that allows me to create files and so I can't run all the tests.
Must have at least "user", "pass" and "url" args where "url" is the url of a remote, DAV accessible ".ics" file.
Can optionally take an "auto_commit" option. See "auto_commit()" method below.
Make a new calendar object using same arguments as "Data::ICal"'s "new()" or "parse()" methods.
Does not auto save for you.
Returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.
Save the calendar back to the server (or optionally to another path).
Returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.
Delete the file on the server or optionally another url.
Returns 1 on success and 0 on failure.
Refetch the file from the sever to sync it -
Alternatively fetch an alternative url.
These will lose any local changes.
Same options as "HTTP::DAV"'s "unlock".
Same options as "HTTP::DAV"'s "unlock".
Same options as "HTTP::DAV"'s "steal_lock".
Same options as "HTTP::DAV::Response"'s "lockdiscovery".
Same options as "HTTP::DAV::Response"'s "forcefully_unlock_all".
Get the underlying "HTTP::DAV" object or, alterntively, replace it with a a new one.
Get the underlying cal object
Whether to auto save on desctruction or not.
