Information

This version of carddav2fb is a forked version from carlos22 (https://github.com/carlos22/carddav2fb) and adding support for convenient image upload, different FRITZ!Box base paths (for example for FRITZ!Box 7490 (UI) OS: 6.50) and full name design support.

Requirements

• PHP-version 5.3.6 or higher
• PHP-curl module
• PHP-ftp module
• PHP-mbstring module

Installation

Checkout the carddav2fb sources including its related subprojects using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/jens-maus/carddav2fb.git

Now you should have everything setup and checked out to a 'carddav2fb' directory.

Configuration

1. Make sure you have System -> FRITZ!Box-Users -> Login via Username+Password in your FRITZ!Box activated.
2. Make sure you have a separate user created under System -> FRITZ!Box-Users for which the following access rights have been granted:

• FRITZ!Box settings (required to upload telephone book data)
• Access to NAS content (required to upload photos via ftp).

3. Make sure the telephone book you are going to update via carddav2fb exists on the FRITZ!Box, otherwise the upload will fail.
4. Copy config.example.php to config.php and adapt it to your needs including setting the FRITZ!Box user settings.
