Releases: GioBonvi/GoogleContactsEventsNotifier
Version 3.0.0 - Support for all type of events
GoogleContactsEventsNotifier now supports all kind of Google Contact Events (Birthdays, Anniversaries and any custom event) instead of just birthdays.
We have slightly changed the structure of the email notification to take this into account: now you'll see a list of contacts events grouped by type of events as well as by date (like it was before).
We decided to keep the default behavior to birthays only, because this is what this script was born to do and so that old users who updated to this new version do not experience an unwanted change: you can choose which events you want to receive notifications about by customizing the eventTypes variable (just set each of the event types to true or false).
As always you can update your script by copying all the contents of this file, replacing your current script with those, customizing all the options and doing 'Run' -> 'Stop' and 'Run' -> 'Start' in the top menu to refresh the notification service.
A big thank you to @rowanthorpe for having this idea and implementing it and to all the users who helped updatin the translations.
Refactored code
Refactored getContactContent function into Contact object with proper… … methods. Created the Contact object which extracts all the information about a contact from a CalendarEvent object and can retrieve further details through the contactId field if present. The Contact object can generate the line of text with all the details about the birthday of the interested contact both in HTML and in plain text. Added telephone numbers links (href="tel:xxxxxx"). Increased version number to 2.1.
