How to access Apples iCal-Server via Python?

Question

I'm trying to access Apples iCal-Server on a Mac OS X Snow Leopard Server via Python. The server is up and running and working with it via the iCal-Application is just fine. Now I need to access this server via Python to use it as backend for resource planning.

So how can I read the events within a time range from a user's calendar using python?

Answer 1

I've never done that, but a bit of Googling yields:

https://pythonhosted.org/caldav/index.html

which seems to be what you need. Over at:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calendar_and_Contacts_Server

it says that the server is written in Python so any problems should be fairly easy to debug.

Is that what you were looking for?
