aiocaldav

aiocaldav is a fork of the caldav project since v0.5.0

It uses aiohttp client library instead of synchronous request lib. It also targets only python 3.6+ (remove six and older python support)

Drawbacks

• no DigestAuth Support for now

Bug corrections since caldav v0.5.0

• Todo list without completed query syntax was wrong
• It was possible to completed an already completed task. Now complete() an already completed task does nothing (perhaps should we raise an error instead ?)
• changed datetime output in cdav to match rfc 5545 (for timezones)

Evolutions since caldav v0.5.0 (incompatible change in top of 'asyncification')

• package name changed from caldav to aiocaldav
• Principal.calendar_home_set is no longer a property, it's now a async method To set the prop, now use Principal._calendar_home_setter(url) To retrieve is use await Principal.calendar_home_set()

Tests

Tests uses pytest and pytest_asyncio and need (by default) docker and docker-compose. Just run:

$ pytest .

to launch the tests. It will build the necessary docker images. At the first launch, it could take a lot of time to build the images (especially for the cyrus image which need compilation)

to test against a specific backend, you can use pytest cli options:

$ pytest --only-backend-radicale .

$ pytest --only-backend-davical .

$ pytest --only-backend-xandikos .

$ pytest --only-backend-cyrus .

to exclude a backend, you can use this pytest cli options:

• --no-backend-radicale
• --no-backend-davical
• --no-backend-xandikos
• --no-backend-cyrus

(note: xandikos is not included in the default test suite for now)
