NAME

Cal::DAV - a CalDAV client

SYNOPSIS

my $cal = Cal::DAV->new( user => $user, pass => $pass, url => $url);
# the ics data will be fetched automatically if it's there

# ... or you can parse some ics 
$cal->parse(filename => $data);

# cal now has all the methods of Data::ICal
# you can now monkey around with the object

# saves the updated calendar
$cal->save;

# deletes the calendar
$cal->delete;

# lock the file on the server
$cal->lock;

# unlock the file on the server
$cal->unlock

# steal the lock
$cal->steal_lock;

# also
$cal->forcefully_unlock_all

# and
$cal->lockdiscovery

# resyncs it with the server
$cal->get;

# Get the underlying HTTP::DAV object
my $dav = $cal->dav;

DESCRIPTION

Cal::DAV is actually a very thin wrapper round HTTP::DAV and Data::ICal but it may gain more functionality later and, in the mean time, serves as something that

TESTING

In order to test you need to define three environment variables: CAL_DAV_USER, CAL_DAV_PASS and CAL_DAV_URL_BASE which points to a DAV collection that the user supplied has write permissions for.

It should be noted that, at the moment, I'm having problems finding a CalDAV server that allows me to create files and so I can't run all the tests.
