Simple command-line CalDav client, for adding and browsing calendar items, todo list items, etc. As of version 0.11 it's even becoming a full-fledged task management tool.
+Other tools
+-----------
+
+There is another project out there, "Command-line Interface for Google Calendar", previously located at pypi under the calendar-cli name. It has now been renamed to gcalendar-cli to avoid name conflict, and is available at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/gcalendar-cli/
+
There is a "competing" project at https://github.com/geier/khal - you may want to check it out - it's more mature but probably more complex. It's using a "vsyncdir" backend - if I've understood it correctly, that involves building a local copy of the calendar. The philosophy behind calendar-cli is slightly different, calendar-cli is supposed to be a simple cli-based caldav+ical client. No synchronization, no local storage.
-*NOTE*: As of 2015-10, someone has uploaded a "Command-line Interface for Google Calendar" to pypi with the same name - https://pypi.python.org/pypi/calendar-cli/ - this is a different project!

GUIs and Web-UIs are nice for some purposes, but I really find the command line unbeatable when it comes to:
-* Minor stuff that are repeated often. Writing something like "todo add make a calendar-cli system" or "cal add 'tomorrow 15:40+2h' doctor appointment" is just very much faster than navigating into some web calendar interface and add an item there.
+* Minor stuff that are repeated often. Writing something like "todo add make a calendar-cli system" or "calendar add 'tomorrow 15:40+2h' doctor appointment" is just very much faster than navigating into some web calendar interface and add an item there.
* Things that are outside the scope of the UI. Here is one of many tasks I'd like to do: "go through the work calendar, find all new calendar events that are outside office hours, check up with the personal calendar if there are potential conflicts, add some information at the personal calendar if appropriate", and vice versa - it has to be handled very manually if doing it through any normal calendar application as far as I know, but if having some simple CLI or python library I could easily make some interactive script that would help me doing the operation above.
I've been looking a bit around, all I could find was cadaver and CalDAVClientLibrary. Both of those seems to be a bit shortcoming; they seem to miss the iCalendar parsing/generation, and there are things that simply cannot be done through those tools.

+The caldav URL is supposed to be something like i.e. http://some.davical.server/caldav.php/ - it is only supposed to relay the server location, not the user or calendar. It's a common mistake to use something like http://some.davical.server/caldav.php/tobixen/work-calendar/ - it will also work, but it will ignore the calendar part of it, and use first calendar it can find - perhaps tobixen/family-calendar/. Use http://some.davical.server/caldav.php/ as the caldav URL, and tobixen/family-calendar as the calendar-url.

The rationale is to allow configuration for multiple CalDAV-servers to remain in the same configuration file. Later versions will eventually be capable of copying events, or putting events into several calendars.
