pygpal
2009 June 5
My friend Adam Lincoln has been working on a Python implementation of Pal, with one key feature, Google Calendar support.
Finally, a companion to mutt for CLI people. The project is called pygpal, and it’s hosted on launchpad. It has some great features like seperate colors for each calendar, add/delete/edit of calendars, with full sync to Google Calendar.
This was a side project for Adam so he could play with the gcal python API. If it’s useful, please consider contributing to the project, specifically the “first run” experience needs some work. Feel free to branch it and run with the ball.
There is already a CLI app for google calendar which I’ve been using for over a year now and it works great. It has cool integration with screen, conky an shell scripts. Also, has a cool reminder. It does lack edit and delete of events.
gcalcli – http://code.google.com/p/gcalcli/
I did a review of it here. http://mostlycli.blogspot.com/2008/10/gcalcli-google-calendar-on-command-line.html
Latest Ubuntu has it in the repos.
Maybe there can be some collaboration between the two, both seem to have similar goals. Although, there doesn’t seem to be much info on the LP site for pygpal.
Good luck.
Wow, this is a great tool, thanks!
