IndexError: list index out of range in File "./bin/calendar-cli.py", line 66, in find_calendar about calendar-cli HOT 9 CLOSED

It seems odd ... the error indicates that the caldav library found no calendars, but I can see there being one calendar returned.

Would it be possible to let me access your radicale server so I could run the caldav test suite towards it and debug the issue?

from calendar-cli.

I guess not, because I've already killed it.
I've done smth like pip install radicale; radicale -f -D.

from calendar-cli.

Wow, that's easy. But how do you define users on that radicale server?

from calendar-cli.

hah. I don't.

from calendar-cli.

so username d and password d was actually verbatim? Is it a default user in radicale? Otherwise, I would guess that it's needed to create a user in radicale before it's possible to view or add calendar items.

from calendar-cli.

maybe. I don't know. I think you can have users, but you don't have to. But I was able to show items with DAVDroid in an Android emulator. As I wanted to have something less complicated to show the items in the DAV collection, I looked into calendar-cli. That, however, was crashing. I think that's bad in any case.

A caldav server and client without configuring any users or passwords ... wow. If we can package radicale and calendar-cli together, we'll have a complete command-line calendaring system :-)

I'm wondering if this requires fixing in the underlying caldav-library.

from calendar-cli.

I regret that I so far never got time to look more into this.

I did have some issues getting Radicale to work at all with the caldav library. Radicale seems to lack some of the support for creating and handling calendar sets, this seems to be allowed according to the RFC, but both the caldav library and the calendar-cli tool seems to require some modification to support Radicale.

I hope to get this on track in 0.12 or 0.13.

A workaround may possibly be to specify the calendar-URL in the config file.

from calendar-cli.

caldav library 0.7.0 was released today, tests are running fine towards radicale, test framework has been fixed to spawn up radicale. However this does not solve the problem above, one would have to create a calendar first.

With radicale, a calendar is automatically created when trying to access one - so a valid work-around would be to specify a calendar-url in the config file or in the command line options.

I think I will close this issue and raise two more issues, we should have automatic tests based on radicale and xandikos, and calendar-cli needs commands for creating a new calendar.
