Run external script(s) on insert/delete/modify about radicale

[liZe]

There's one problem about that: Radicale doesn't really know what's a calendar or an addressbook. When a request is received, Radicale could try to guess according to the type of request, but it can't know for sure what's happening in the collections (scary, isn't it???).

Fortunately, clients are able to do this, because they now what a calendar or an addressbook is. There are many options about invitations, meetings or shared events in many clients. Maybe it's limited, but it's more accurate than Radicale about what's going on.

If you're interested and courageous, using the icalendar and inotify modules in an external Python script may be a good idea, as the collections are stored as simple ical files. I think that you can do what you want in less than 100 lines of Python, with a server-side script.

It may look interesting to reuse parts of Radicale for this, but it's definitely not. Radicale is quite good about CalDAV and CardDAV things, requests and their XML content. But it's definitely useless about ical or vcard, and your needs are only based on watching changes (inotify) on ical/vcard files (icalendar).

Good luck!

(Thank you very much for the nice words and your configuration, both are really appreciated).
