Notes: Store notes in CalDAV/VJOURNAL -> (closed)#197

Created on 5 Jan 2020  路  8Comments  路  Source: nextcloud/notes

Sorry, but this feature is really wanted ...

Meaning of a PIM is to work under one hood.
Well, it's strange to tell users to use this feature here and the other feature there.
An then ... they tell u're silly to "set up a system" such this "experimental Cloud" and last: Hey dude, Google and M$ can do this and u won't. Aehm, why u're using Linux?

Sorry, again. But welcome to my life ...

feature request needs discussion needs info

I could imagine additional apis to the outside like a wrapper / mapper if this is something that @korelstar wants to implement.

Alternatively one could write an additional serverside nextcloud app which uses the same storage backend.

We are not microsoft neither google, we do not have the budget neither the time. But we have a huge community and the project develops from the people who want features and are willing to contribute. If noone contributes, the pain is not high enough for the users to have a free solution 馃し

To push this forward, @peedy2495 maybe you want to maintain one of the proposed solutions or start a new new project / pull request where volunteers could contribute? 馃殌 Or, if you are not a coder, put a bounty on this to motivate other volunteers?

Hmmm. #197 was about to store the notes in a CalDAV/VJOURNAL backend instead of the filesystem. I still think that we shouldn't add multiple storage backends to the notes app.

The proposal by @stefan-niedermann is about providing a new API, so that clients could use the CalDAV/VJOURNAL API in order to access notes stored in the filesystem. This sounds interesting, but I don't know if this is what @peedy2495 intended. Honestly, the issue description is really hard to understand. So please be more precise in a technical way what this issue is really about (more than just the title and some general complaining).

@peedy2495 please clarify what exactly you mean.

Most open source PIMs like evolution, kontact, etc are using dav-sources for notes, only.
As the title of this issue describes: a dav source to use notes over all platforms is needed.

... explicitly a CalDAV/VJOURNAL-source is reqested.

So your intention is either

  • that 3rd-party clients are able to access Notes via CalDAV / VJOURNAL API or
  • that the server-app just stores the notes in the CalDAV / VJOURNAL

Based on your comment i guess you want the first one. In this case: See my comment.


Are you using Google translate or any other translation tool? It is really very hard to understand what you are trying to tell us.
