Hello everyone, some time ago I started working on a filesystem for vcard files. The filesystem manages a vcard database (stored in the user lib dir), and mounts itself to /mnt/vcard per default.
I'm at a point where I consider it ready for anyone to use. There might be bugs, memory leaks, and other things that could be improved, but it is something that could be used as a backend system for other tools, or just used directly. https://shithub.us/sirjofri/vcardfs https://git.sr.ht/~sirjofri/vcardfs (Technical details following, feel free to stop reading here). It comes with a library (libvcard) for parsing vcard files, and supports version 2.1 and 3.0/4.0, though it doesn't validate the vcard data (it only reads the syntax and loads the data, with the only exception being the version property, but that gets too technical). The filesystem supports importing new vcard data, and also exporting the whole database as vcard, as well as exporting individual cards. For exporting, it only supports vcard version 4.0 (hardcoded). It is however important to note that I'm not very experienced at writing filesystems and properly synchronized code, so there could be issues when multiple programs access the data. Patches are welcome. sirjofri ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T4d117dbbd00ae4f7-Mdce2a45adb63efe5df4cb3b9 Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
