etesync-dav does not work anymore due to an update of radicale

[ysooqe]

Hi there.
Today, there was an update of the radicale package, new version 3.0.0. This seems to have broken etesync-dav.
Doing systemctl --user status etesync-dav.service, I get the following output:

status.log

I am running Arch Linux, using the latest version of etesync-dav that is available on the AUR.
If there is any additional information needed, please let me know so I can try provide it.

Grrrrrrrrr, from the Radicale changelog:

Custom plugins:

• auth and web plugins require minor adjustments
• rights plugins must be adapted to the new permission model
• storage plugins require major changes

So essentially EteSync-DAV needs to be rewritten. I hope the plugin API is at least better, because it used to be absolutely terrible. I'll try to get to it asap.

Temporary workarounds: either use the prebuilt binaries in the release page, downgrade the radicale Arch package, or install it in a python virtualenv. In the meanwhile, I also updated the AUR etesync-dav package to require radicale older than 3.0.0.

I've tried reaching out to the Radicale people and no comment. I guess I'll have to reimplement some stuff again because they are not really reviewing PRs nor replying when I reach out.
I'll try again, hopefully I'll hear back.

Hey everyone!

Sorry for the delay, are you able to test the new radicale3 branch to see if it fixes things for you?

Branch: https://github.com/etesync/etesync-dav/tree/radicale3 It's now in master.

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm running Arch Linux. I have uninstalled the AUR package (but left all the dependencies installed) and used python setup.py build; sudo python setup.py install to build and install the radicale3 branch. I get the following error.

Thanks for taking a look! I'm not sure what the problem is, though if I had to guess it's something with the installation. Could you maybe try in a virtualenv, or potentially in the normal env and use pip install . inside the branch's directory?

[ChasNelson1990]

sudo python -m pip install . seems to work fine.

[tasn]

Great. :)

What about viewing all of your data? Add/edit/delete? Refreshing the collection? All works for you?
It works here, but I want to make sure it works for others too...

[ChasNelson1990]

Yep, I changed a calendar event and synced and it updated correctly on my phone.

[tasn]

Great, thanks! I was already very confident based on my tests, and this adds even more.

If someone else could test a few things too that would be great, though I plan on releasing a new version later today maybe tomorrow.

[tasn]

I'm repoening this because it's not actually fixed, but the code is now in master.

[tasn]

I made a new release with the fixes, and updated the AUR package. It should now be fixed.

[ChasNelson1990]

Installed and working - thanks!
