[Pythonmac-SIG] scripting iCal (original) (raw)

I really don't care how it is done - I'm just looking to modify/write something in Python that will get all the events on the current date (including recurring events for that day) and have it email me. Your iCalendar.py script is close, but it doesn't seem to handle recurring events.

I don't have a Mac at work so I want to have a cron job email me my calendar for the day each morning.

Thanks, Dave

If you don't want to use AppleScript I have code that reads the iCal data files directly at http://toxicsoftware.com/blog/index.php/weblog/icaltorss/

I've ran across this: http://stompstompstomp.com/weblog/technical/2004-02-05 and got the examples in it to work fine. I'm now trying to write a script to just grab the events for the current date. I could pull all the events and check their start date, but figure there is probably an easier way. The applescript documentation includes: Class calendar: This class represents a calendar Plural form: calendars Elements: event by numeric index, before/after another element, as a range of elements, satisfying a test todo by numeric index, before/after another element, as a range of elements, satisfying a test

but it's not clear to me how to grave events that "satisfy a test". Can anyone help or point me to documentation on this? Thanks, Dave
