A CalDav server built on Rails

This development is still in alpha. Use at your own risks.

The aim of this Rails app is to provide :

• a CalDav server accessible by CalDav clients (Thunderbird, etc...)
• a web interface to manage calendars and eveything around :
  • add/update/delete calendars
  • add/update/delete events/tasks
  • manage share/permissions

The basics are implemented but it needs some additionnal work :

• add support for alarms
• add support for event's participants
• a cleaner/better implementation of the CalDav server

This app should be considered as a POC (Proof Of Concept) of a CalDav server implementation in Ruby/Rails.

Roadmap

• Finish CalDav server implementation
• Extract the CalDav server in gem (the server should be mountable in a standard Rails app)

Why?

I know some alternatives exist out there to manage calendars like :

• http://calendarserver.org/ (Python)
• http://radicale.org/ (Python)
• http://baikal-server.com/ (Php)
• https://owncloud.org/ (Php)

(The full list here)

But none of them is in Ruby.

I thought it would be nice to have a Ruby alternative. Thus this project.
