Game Over

2010-04-16T10:24:00.001-07:00

I don't have time or energy to maintain this plugin so farwell little plugin, I was happy to make you ;)

Plugin End Of Life
This plugin is not maintained any more. This blog is kept for archive purpose only.
You can check on github is someone forked it and if a new "up-to-date" version exists or fork it yourself.
Good luck ;)

Googlecalendar4Ruby is not dead

2009-01-06T06:14:00.000-08:00

Well at least not yet ;)

I've lots of ideas, features and enhancements to add but very little time to do them.

I started a big refactoring of the code in svn. (I tried to keep it backward compatible)

I started to use "newgem" to reduce time and energy for releases.
Unfortunalty newgem made me loose more time than I gain for the moment because it's not meant to be use on windows (ex: it use rsync), I didn't find a workaround to this with cygwin (all my gem a installed with windows native system...) and I didn't have any linux box setup at the moment...

Things I'd like to do/fix in the next big release of googlecalendar 1.0.0:
- include fixes provided by contributors waiting in my mail box
- enhance rails google calendar integration in the rails plugin
- update to modern rails plugin layout (the current rails plugin was created in rails 1.x I think)
- add dependency in the rails plugin to the ruby gem (avoid code duplication between gem and plugin)
- better svn layout (trunk/branches/tags). rubyforge'svn will be the official repo for the googlecalendar releases.
- doing some unit / integration test
- better documentation (a real webite with examples) (already partly done at: http://googlecalendar.rubyforge.org/)
- setup git repo on github/gitorious to help me with contributions (avoid patch waiting in my mailbox for ages) and learn git at the same time

Let's hope I find time for this ;)

Happy New Year :)

Available calendar informations

2006-06-07T01:52:00.000-07:00

How do i view all the google calendar data? For instance an event description is there an easy way to getting this data?

Currently, after parsing the data, you can access those data:

calendar.product_id
calendar.version
calendar.scale
calendar.method

calendar.events is an array of Event... so you need to iterate over it ;)
For each event you should see:

event.start_date
event.end_date
event.time_stamp
event.class_name
event.created
event.last_modified
event.status
event.summary
