Radicale is a light-weighted open source CalDAV server written in python. It is easy to use and can even run without any configuration. It does not need a database like Mysql or Postgres as it stores all calendars as plain ics files in your file system.

Support for CalDAV-Sync has been added in version 0.6.

Setup

CalDAV-Sync

Please note that anonymous login (i.e. without user name) is currently not supported. You must enable authentication in Radicale to sync with CalDAV-Sync. The password can be empty, so you should be able to sync public and private calendars.

  • Server: <your.server.name>:5232
  • use SSL: leave ticked if you configured Radicale to use SSL
  • Username: <your user name>
  • Password: <your password>

To access calendars in the root directory (i.e. with URLs like /calendar) try:

  • URL: <your.server.name>:5232/<calendar_name>
  • use SSL: leave ticked if you configured Radicale to use SSL
  • Username: <some user name>
  • Password: may be empty

CardDAV-Sync

In order to use Radicale's CardDAV support, you need at least version 0.7.1, since there was an XML namespace error that prevented CardDAV-Sync from finding your address books that was only fixed in ea94ec9 (or check out calypso).

The account setup should work just as with CalDAV-Sync.

Note that you have to access the address book at least once from another client to ensure it actually exists when you start the address book discovery since CardDAV-Sync will find only existing collections.
