ДАВАЙ-ДАВАЙ

I recently published a server-side script to backup all calendars stored in a Davical server. On request and idea of Bruno Friedmann, here is a script to save your own calendars from the client. It’s not very elegant (eg it doesn’t discover your calendars but need a static list) but basically works.

#!/bin/sh
#
# save ICS calendars from CALDAV server
# Ch. Bueche, 4.2.2010
#

# connection info
USER=myself
PASSWORD=mysecret
SERVER_URL=https://my.caldav.com/caldav.php/

# list of server-side calendars to backup
# get these names by looking at “get info” in iCal
CALENDARS=”Priv Work 63B209D5-524F-440F-B492-5B028E6C0298″

TODAY=`date “+%Y.%m.%d”`
BACKUP_DIR=”/data/backup/calendars_$TODAY”
if [ ! -d $BACKUP_DIR ]; then
mkdir $BACKUP_DIR
fi

for cal in $CALENDARS
do
echo “getting calendar $cal”
curl -s -k -X GET -u $USER:$PASSWORD -o “$BACKUP_DIR/$cal.ics” “$SERVER_URL/$USER/$cal”
done

echo “all done”

Feel free to find out how to get a list of calendars using some smart curl command and CALDAV enumeration.
