About:
vdirsyncer is a command-line tool for synchronizing CalDAV calendars and CardDAV contacts between local storage and remote servers. It ensures your calendar events and contact lists are consistently backed up and available across devices. The tool is designed to be reliable and configurable, handling the complexities of the CalDAV and CardDAV protocols.
Key Features:
  • Two-way synchronization for CalDAV and CardDAV
  • Command-line interface for easy scripting and automation
  • Flexible configuration for multiple pairs of storages
  • Supports local storage formats like .ics and .vcf files
Use Cases:
  • Syncing personal calendars and contacts from a self-hosted server to a local machine
  • Backing up cloud-based calendar and contact data to local files
  • Automating contact list updates across different services
Alternatives:
  • calcurse – Primarily a calendar and todo application, not a general-purpose sync tool
  • OfflineIMAP – Focuses on email synchronization (IMAP), not calendars or contacts
