About:
khard is a command-line CardDAV client designed for managing contacts from the terminal. It synchronizes with remote CardDAV servers and stores data locally, integrating seamlessly with other console tools like mutt and offlineimap. Its primary value is providing a fast, scriptable, and privacy-focused way to handle contacts without a GUI.
Key Features:
  • Command-line interface for managing contacts
  • Synchronization with CardDAV servers
  • Integration with email clients like mutt
  • VCard format support and manipulation
  • Scriptable and configurable
Use Cases:
  • Managing contacts from the terminal for email workflows
  • Syncing personal contacts to a local, encrypted store
  • Automating contact updates via scripts
Alternatives:
  • vdirsyncer – Focuses solely on synchronization, while khard provides a full CLI interface for managing and viewing contacts.
  • nextcloud-client – A GUI-based desktop client, whereas khard is strictly terminal-based and lightweight.
