Description

This repository contains server and client code for the persistent-cal App Engine application.

The application enables persistent import of an iCalendar feed into a Google Calendar.

For example, events from a TripIt feed can be periodically added to a user's default Google Calendar (perhaps one shared with coworkers or collaborators).

See the about page of the deployed version of this application for more information

Some Application Maintenance Tasks

• To update client libraries see Google API Python Client Wiki.

• To debug cron jobs (I had to while dealing with the fix in c9ca6f9):

  from google.appengine.api import urlfetch
  from scripts.persistent_cal import APIAuthManager
  
  auth_manager = APIAuthManager(raw_input('Email address: '))
  application_auth = auth_manager.GetApplicationAuth()
  cookie_header = 'ACSID=%s' % application_auth
  
  url = 'http://persistent-cal.appspot.com/cron-weekly'
  result = urlfetch.fetch(
      url=url, method=urlfetch.GET,
      headers={'Cookie': cookie_header, 'X-AppEngine-Cron': 'true'})
  
  url = 'http://persistent-cal.appspot.com/cron-monthly'
  result = urlfetch.fetch(
      url=url, method=urlfetch.GET,
      headers={'Cookie': cookie_header, 'X-AppEngine-Cron': 'true'})

• To PyLint the source code set these in the bash shell:

  $ APPENGINE_PATH="$(readlink `which appcfg.py` | xargs dirname)";
  $ WEBAPP2_PATH="$APPENGINE_PATH/lib/webapp2";
  $ PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:$APPENGINE_PATH:$WEBAPP2_PATH pylint \
  --rcfile=pylintrc library.py

• To add google-api-python-client, run setup_dependencies.py. This file will reflect the "latest" instructions from the client library documentation.

• The version of gae-pytz in setup_dependcies.py reflects the "latest" from PyPI.

• The version of icalendar in setup_dependcies.py reflects the "latest" from PyPI.
