Version 0.8.1¶
released on 30 January 2016
- Fix error messages when invalid parameter fetching strategy is used. This is important because users would receive awkward errors for using deprecated keyring fetching.
Version 0.8.0¶
released on 27 January 2016
Keyring support has been removed, which means that password.fetch = ["keyring", "example.com", "myuser"] doesn’t work anymore.
For existing setups: Use password.fetch = ["command", "keyring", "get", "example.com", "myuser"] instead, which is more generic. See the documentation for details.
Now emitting a warning when running under Python 2. See issue #219.
Version 0.7.5¶
released on 23 December 2015
- Fixed a bug in remotestorage that would try to open a CLI browser for OAuth.
- Fix a packaging bug that would prevent vdirsyncer from working with newer lxml versions.
Version 0.7.4¶
released on 22 December 2015
- Improved error messages instead of faulty server behavior, see issue #290 and issue #300.
- Safer shutdown of threadpool, avoid exceptions, see issue #291.
- Fix a sync bug for read-only storages see commmit ed22764921b2e5bf6a934cf14aa9c5fede804d8e.
- Etag changes are no longer sufficient to trigger sync operations. An actual content change is also necessary. See issue #257.
- remotestorage now automatically opens authentication dialogs in your configured GUI browser.
- Packagers: lxml>=3.1 is now required (newer lower-bound version).
Version 0.7.1¶
released on 05 November 2015
- Packagers: The setuptools extras keyring and remotestorage have been added. They’re basically optional dependencies. See setup.py for more details.
- Highly experimental remoteStorage support has been added. It may be completely overhauled or even removed in any version.
- Removed mentions of old password_command in documentation.
Version 0.7.0¶
released on 27 October 2015
- Packagers: New dependencies are click_threading, click_log and click>=5.0.
- password_command is gone. Keyring support got completely overhauled. See Storing passwords.
Version 0.6.0¶
released on 06 August 2015
- password_command invocations with non-zero exit code are now fatal (and will abort synchronization) instead of just producing a warning.
- Vdirsyncer is now able to synchronize metadata of collections. Set metadata = ["displayname"] and run vdirsyncer metasync.
- Packagers: Don’t use the GitHub tarballs, but the PyPI ones.
- Packagers: build.sh is gone, and Makefile is included in tarballs. See the content of Makefile on how to run tests post-packaging.
- verify_fingerprint doesn’t automatically disable verify anymore.
Version 0.5.2¶
released on 15 June 2015
- Vdirsyncer now checks and corrects the permissions of status files.
- Vdirsyncer is now more robust towards changing UIDs inside items.
- Vdirsyncer is now handling unicode hrefs and UIDs correctly. Software that produces non-ASCII UIDs is broken, but apparently it exists.
Version 0.5.1¶
released on 29 May 2015
- N.b.: The PyPI upload of 0.5.0 is completely broken.
- Raise version of required requests-toolbelt to 0.4.0.
- Command line should be a lot faster when no work is done, e.g. for help output.
- Fix compatibility with iCloud again.
- Use only one worker if debug mode is activated.
- verify=false is now disallowed in vdirsyncer, please use verify_fingerprint instead.
- Fixed a bug where vdirsyncer’s DAV storage was not using the configured useragent for collection discovery.
Version 0.4.4¶
released on 12 March 2015
- Support for client certificates via the new auth_cert parameter, see issue #182 and pull request #183.
- The icalendar package is no longer required.
- Several bugfixes related to collection creation.
Version 0.4.3¶
released on 20 February 2015
- More performance improvements to singlefile-storage.
- Add post_hook param to filesystem-storage.
- Collection creation now also works with SabreDAV-based servers, such as Baikal or ownCloud.
- Removed some workarounds for Radicale. Upgrading to the latest Radicale will fix the issues.
- Fixed issues with iCloud discovery.
- Vdirsyncer now includes a simple repair command that seeks to fix some broken items.
Version 0.4.2¶
released on 30 January 2015
- Vdirsyncer now respects redirects when uploading and updating items. This might fix issues with Zimbra.
- Relative status_path values are now interpreted as relative to the configuration file’s directory.
- Fixed compatibility with custom SabreDAV servers. See issue #166.
- Catch harmless threading exceptions that occur when shutting down vdirsyncer. See issue #167.
- Vdirsyncer now depends on atomicwrites.
- Massive performance improvements to singlefile-storage.
- Items with extremely long UIDs should now be saved properly in filesystem-storage. See issue #173.
Version 0.4.1¶
released on 05 January 2015
- All create arguments from all storages are gone. Vdirsyncer now asks if it should try to create collections.
- The old config values True, False, on, off and None are now invalid.
- UID conflicts are now properly handled instead of ignoring one item. Card- and CalDAV servers are already supposed to take care of those though.
- Official Baikal support added.
Version 0.4.0¶
released on 31 December 2014
- The passwordeval parameter has been renamed to password_command.
- The old way of writing certain config values such as lists is now gone.
- Collection discovery has been rewritten. Old configuration files should be compatible with it, but vdirsyncer now caches the results of the collection discovery. You have to run vdirsyncer discover if collections were added or removed on one side.
- Pair and storage names are now restricted to certain characters. Vdirsyncer will issue a clear error message if your configuration file is invalid in that regard.
- Vdirsyncer now supports the XDG-Basedir specification. If the VDIRSYNCER_CONFIG environment variable isn’t set and the ~/.vdirsyncer/config file doesn’t exist, it will look for the configuration file at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vdirsyncer/config.
- Some improvements to CardDAV and CalDAV discovery, based on problems found with FastMail. Support for .well-known-URIs has been added.
Version 0.3.3¶
released on 8 December 2014
- Vdirsyncer now also works with iCloud. Particularly collection discovery and etag handling were fixed.
- Vdirsyncer now encodes Cal- and CardDAV requests differently. This hasn’t been well-tested with servers like Zimbra or SoGo, but isn’t expected to cause any problems.
- Vdirsyncer is now more robust regarding invalid responses from CalDAV servers. This should help with future compatibility with Davmail/Outlook.
- Fix a bug when specifying item_types of caldav in the deprecated config format.
- Fix a bug where vdirsyncer would ignore all but one character specified in unsafe_href_chars of caldav and carddav.
Version 0.3.2¶
released on 3 December 2014
- The current config format has been deprecated, and support for it will be removed in version 0.4.0. Vdirsyncer warns about this now.
Version 0.3.1¶
released on 24 November 2014
- Fixed a bug where vdirsyncer would delete items if they’re deleted on side A but modified on side B. Instead vdirsyncer will now upload the new items to side A. See issue #128.
- Synchronization continues with the remaining pairs if one pair crashes, see issue #121.
- The processes config key is gone. There is now a --max-workers option on the CLI which has a similar purpose. See pull request #126.
- The Read The Docs-theme is no longer required for building the docs. If it is not installed, the default theme will be used. See issue #134.
Version 0.3.0¶
released on 20 September 2014
- Add verify_fingerprint parameter to http, caldav and carddav, see issue #99 and pull request #106.
- Add passwordeval parameter to General Section, see issue #108 and pull request #117.
- Emit warnings (instead of exceptions) about certain invalid responses from the server, see issue #113. This is apparently required for compatibility with Davmail.
Version 0.2.5¶
released on 27 August 2014
- Don’t ask for the password of one server more than once and fix multiple concurrency issues, see issue #101.
- Better validation of DAV endpoints.
Version 0.2.4¶
released on 18 August 2014
Version 0.2.3¶
released on 11 August 2014
Version 0.2.2¶
released on 04 August 2014
Version 0.2.1¶
released on 05 July 2014
- Fix bug where vdirsyncer shows empty addressbooks when using CardDAV with Zimbra.
- Fix infinite loop when password doesn’t exist in system keyring.
- Colorized errors, warnings and debug messages.
- vdirsyncer now depends on the click package instead of argvard.
Version 0.2.0¶
released on 12 June 2014
- vdirsyncer now depends on the icalendar package from PyPI, to get rid of its own broken parser.
- vdirsyncer now also depends on requests_toolbelt. This makes it possible to guess the authentication type instead of blankly assuming basic.
- Fix a semi-bug in caldav and carddav storages where a tuple (href, etag) instead of the proper etag would have been returned from the upload method. vdirsyncer might do unnecessary copying when upgrading to this version.
- Add the storage singlefile. See issue #48.
- The collections parameter for pair sections now accepts the special values from a and from b for automatically discovering collections. See Pair Section.
- The read_only parameter was added to storage sections. See Storage Section.
