NAME iCal::Parser - Parse iCalendar files into a data structure SYNOPSIS use iCal::Parser my $parser=iCal::Parser->new(); my $hash=$parser->parse($file); $parser->parse($another_file); my $combined=$parser->calendar; my $combined=iCal::Parser->new->parse(@files); my $combined=iCal::Parser->new->parse_files(@files); my $combined=iCal::Parser->new->parse_strings(@strings); DESCRIPTION This module processes iCalendar (vCalendar 2.0) files as specified in RFC 2445 into a data structure. It handles recurrences (`RRULE's), exclusions (`EXDATE's), event updates (events with a `RECURRENCE-ID'), and nested data structures (`ATTENDEES' and `VALARM's). It currently ignores the `VTIMEZONE', `VJOURNAL' and `VFREEBUSY' entry types. The data structure returned is a hash like the following: { calendars=>[\%cal, ...], events=>{yyyy=>{mm=>{dd}=>{UID=>\%event}} todos=>[\%todo, ...] } That is, it contains an array of calendar hashes, a hash of events key by `year=>month=>day=>eventUID', and an array of todos. Calendars, events and todos are "rolled up" version os the hashes returned from Text::vFile::asData, with dates replaced by `DateTime' objects. During parsing, events in the input calendar are expanded out into multiple events, one per day covered by the event, as follows: * If the event is a one day "all day" event (in ical, the event is 24hrs long, starts at midnight on the day and ends a midnight of the next day), it contains no `hour' field and the `allday' field is set to `1'. * If the event is a recurrence (`RRULE'), one event per day is created as per the `RRULE' specification. * If the event spans more than one day (the start and end dates are on different days, but does not contain an `RRULE'), it is expanded into multiple events, the first events end time is set to midnight, subsequent events are set to start at midnight and end at midnight the following day (same as an "allday" event, but the `allday' field is not set), and the last days event is set to run from midnight to the end time of the original multi-day event. * If the event is an update (it contains a `RECURRENCE-ID'), the original event is updated. If the referenced event does not exist (e.g., it was deleted after the update), then the event is added as a new event. An example of each hash is below. Calendar Hash { 'X-WR-CALNAME' => 'Test', 'index' => 1, 'X-WR-RELCALID' => '7CCE8555-3516-11D9-8A43-000D93C45D90', 'PRODID' => '-//Apple Computer\\, Inc//iCal 1.5//EN', 'CALSCALE' => 'GREGORIAN', 'X-WR-TIMEZONE' => 'America/New_York', 'X-WR-CALDESC' => 'My Test Calendar', 'VERSION' => '2.0' } Event Hash Note that `hours' and `allday' are mutually exclusive in the actual data. The `idref' field contains the `id' of the calendar the event came from, which is useful if the hash was created from multiple calendars. { 'SUMMARY' => 'overnight', 'hours' => '15.00', 'allday' => 1, 'UID' => '95CCBF98-3685-11D9-8CA5-000D93C45D90', 'idref' => '7CCE8555-3516-11D9-8A43-000D93C45D90', 'DTSTAMP' => \%DateTime, 'DTEND' => \%DateTime, 'DTSTART' => \%DateTime 'ATTENDEE' => [ { 'CN' => 'Jay', 'value' => 'mailto:[email protected]' }, ], 'VALARM' => [ { 'when' => \%DateTime, 'SUMMARY' => 'Alarm notification', 'ACTION' => 'EMAIL', 'DESCRIPTION' => 'This is an event reminder', 'ATTENDEE' => [ { 'value' => 'mailto:[email protected]' } ] } ], } Todo Hash { 'URL' => 'mailto:me', 'SUMMARY' => 'todo 1', 'UID' => 'B78E68F2-35E7-11D9-9E64-000D93C45D90', 'idref' => '7CCE8555-3516-11D9-8A43-000D93C45D90', 'STATUS' => 'COMPLETED', 'COMPLETED' => \%DateTime, 'DTSTAMP' => \%DateTime, 'PRIORITY' => '9', 'DTSTART' => \%DateTime, 'DUE' => \%DateTime, 'DESCRIPTION' => 'not much', 'VALARM' => [ { 'when' => \%DateTime, 'ATTACH' => 'file://localhost/my-file', 'ACTION' => 'PROCEDURE' } ], }, Methods new(%opt_args) Optional Arguments start {yyymmdd|DateTime} Only include events on or after `yyymmdd'. Defaults to Jan of this year. end {yyyymmdd|DateTime} Only include events before `yyymmdd'. no_events Don't include events in the output (todos only). no_todos Don't include todos in the output (events only). months n DateTime::Sets (used for calculating recurrences) are limited to approximately 200 entries. If an `end' date is not specified, the `to' date is set to the `start' date plus this many months. The default is 60. tz (string|DateTime::TimeZone) Use tz as timezone for date values. The default is 'local', which will adjust the parsed dates to the current timezone. debug Set to non-zero for some debugging output during processing. parse({file|file_handle}+) Parse the input files or opened file handles and return the generated hash. This function can be called mutitple times and the calendars will be merge into the hash, each event tagged with the unique id of its calendar. parse_files({file|file_handle}+) Alias for `parse()' parse_strings(string+) Parse the input strings (each assumed to be a valid iCalendar) and return the generated hash.
