A Python utility to synchronize events from a CalDAV calendar to Google Calendar, maintaining a local state to track changes.
## Features
- One-way synchronization from CalDAV to Google Calendar
- Intelligent change detection using event UIDs and modification timestamps:
- Adds new events not present in Google Calendar
- Updates modified events based on last-modified timestamp
- Removes events deleted from CalDAV source
- Local state management via JSON file to track synchronized events
- Detailed logging of synchronization activities
- Built-in rate limiting (0.5s delay between API calls) to prevent Google Calendar API throttling
- Comprehensive error tracking with failed events reporting
- UTC timezone handling for consistent event timing
## Prerequisites
### 1. Python Environment
- Python 3.9 or higher
- Poetry for dependency management
- Required Python packages (automatically installed via Poetry):
- `caldav` (^1.4.0) - For CalDAV server interaction
- `icalendar` (^6.1.0) - For iCalendar format parsing
- `google-api-python-client` (^2.154.0) - For Google Calendar API
- `python-dotenv` (^1.0.1) - For environment variable management
### 2. CalDAV Server Details
You'll need:
- CalDAV server URL
- Username
- Password
- Calendar name to synchronize (case-insensitive matching)
### 3. Google Calendar Setup
To interact with the Google Calendar API, follow these steps:
1. Go to the [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/).
2. Create a new project or select an existing one.
3. Enable the **Google Calendar API** for the project.
4. Create OAuth 2.0 credentials:
- Go to **APIs & Services > Credentials**.
- Click **Create Credentials** > **OAuth Client ID**.
- Configure the consent screen (if not already done).
- Select **Desktop App** as the application type.
- Download the `credentials.json` file.
5. Place the `credentials.json` file in the project directory.
## Installation
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://gitlab.com/rogs/caldav2google.git
cd caldav2google
```
2. Install dependencies:
```bash
poetry install
```
3. Create `.env` file (copy from env.example):
```env
CALDAV_URL=https://your-caldav-server.com
CALDAV_USERNAME=your_username
CALDAV_PASSWORD=your_password
CALDAV_CALENDAR_NAME=your_calendar_name
GOOGLE_CALENDAR_NAME=target_google_calendar_name
```
## Usage
1. Activate virtual environment:
```bash
poetry shell
```
2. Run synchronization:
```bash
PYTHONPATH=. python src/main.py
```
On first run:
- Browser opens for Google OAuth authentication
- Grant requested calendar permissions
- Token is saved as `token.pickle` for future use
## Testing
To run the test suite:
```bash
poetry run pytest
```
This will run all tests in the `tests/` directory.
To generate a test coverage report:
```bash
poetry run pytest --cov=src tests/
```

## Configuration Files
### credentials.json
Downloaded from Google Cloud Console (required)
### .env
```env
CALDAV_URL=https://caldav.example.com
CALDAV_USERNAME=user
CALDAV_PASSWORD=pass
CALDAV_CALENDAR_NAME=My Calendar
GOOGLE_CALENDAR_NAME=CalDAV Events
```
### calendar_sync.json
Automatically maintained JSON file tracking:
- Event UIDs
- Event summaries
- Start and end times
- Last modification timestamps
- Google Calendar event IDs
## Error Handling
The script provides robust error handling:
- Failed events are tracked in memory during sync
- Detailed error messages for both CalDAV and Google Calendar operations
- Rate limiting prevents Google Calendar API throttling
- Synchronization state preserved even on partial failures
- Automatic token refresh for expired Google credentials
## Troubleshooting
### Authentication Issues
#### Google Calendar
- Error: `Invalid client credentials`
- Verify `credentials.json` is correctly downloaded and placed
- Ensure OAuth consent screen is configured
- Check that Calendar API is enabled in Google Cloud Console
- Error: `Token has been expired or revoked`
- Delete `token.pickle`
- Re-run script to trigger new authentication flow
#### CalDAV
- Error: `Could not connect to server`
- Check URL format and accessibility
- Verify network connectivity
- Confirm server SSL certificate if using HTTPS
- Validate username and password
### Synchronization Issues
- Error: `Calendar not found`
- Verify calendar names in `.env` (case-insensitive matching supported)
- Check calendar visibility/permissions
- Ensure calendar exists on both servers
- Error: `Failed to add/update events`
- Check event data formatting (especially date/time formats)
- Verify calendar write permissions
- Review API quotas and limits
- Check for required event fields
