| gour | i read that it's better to have separate accounts for CalDAV & CardDAV accounts? is it still true? I use Baikal, but wonder if using NextCloud would be better? contacts/calendars are important features in my setup, should i stay with sailfish implementation or using DAVx is more reliable? | 08:46 |
|---|---|---|
| Keto | NextCloud has worked very well for me for contacts and calendar. Haven't used the generic cal/cardDAV integration in Sailfish, so don't know how well that works with other providers | 08:58 |
| Keto | reports on forum suggest that it should work ok with Baikal | 09:03 |
| gour | Keto: generic caldav/cardav account works well for calendars and Baikal, but Peoople app does not show mt 3 different addressbooks i've configure for Baikal | 09:05 |
| gour | in any case, I'd prefer not to use DaVx and Android stuff for that purpose, if not required | 09:06 |
| gour | Keto: do you see seaprate addressbooks with Nextcloud if you have them? | 09:06 |
| Keto | I have only one addressbook, but can test adding another one... | 09:07 |
| gour | 🙏 | 09:07 |
| Keto | nextcloud probably doesn't have multiple addressbooks... it has contact groups... | 09:09 |
| gour | yes | 09:10 |
| Keto | and the groups are probably not supported/handled in any way on sailfish side | 09:14 |
| gour | Keto: i've Nextcloud on another instance - Nitrokey's NextBox and there is option "Add new address book" | 09:16 |
| gour | (in Nextcloud) | 09:16 |
| gour | i can try with that server... | 09:17 |
| Keto | ah, it's there in teh settings | 09:17 |
| * gour is importing addressbook into Nextcloud | 09:18 | |
| gour | ok, let's try now creating nextcloud account | 09:21 |
| Keto | yes, they seem to work | 09:21 |
| Keto | it does sync both books and I can select the book when creating contact on the device | 09:22 |
| Keto | the sailfish people app does not have any kind of grouping or filtering based on the addressbook, so on that side the usability might be a bit limited | 09:24 |
| gour | Keto: what is proper address server for nextcloud: just https://sub.tld.com/ ? | 09:30 |
| Keto | yes, the base url should be enough | 09:32 |
| gour | ahh, using wrong passwd... | 09:34 |
| gour | the nextcloud account was created, but wonder how to see the two addressbooks i've created and populated on NC woth some contacts | 09:40 |
| Keto | it should pull all the contacts from all addressbooks automagically | 09:42 |
| gour | hmm...me, my wife and the kid have their own contacts, so i'd like to pull only specific addressbook and sync all calendars. possible? | 09:44 |
| Keto | no, I don't think so | 09:45 |
| gour | ok. | 09:46 |
| gour | afaict, there is no Croatian keyboard layout available? I set Slovenian, but still... | 09:47 |
| gour | ...it seems the pone can utilize NextCloud for Backup? | 09:48 |
| Keto | yes, though what is included in the backup is a bit limited | 09:50 |
| Keto | if you have all your contacts and calendars already in the "cloud" then the backup does not provide much more | 09:52 |
| Keto | notes from the notes app, sms, and mms messages | 09:53 |
| * gour nods | 09:53 | |
| gour | to resolve issue with multiple addressbooks, i should simply create separate account with single addressbook for each one of us...even maybe jsut under Baikal | 09:55 |
| Keto | maybe... though I wonder if it's possible to use specific addressbook by changing the path in account setting... I don't know if addressbooks are separated by path in carddav | 09:57 |
| gour | there is no option to rename Accounts? | 09:58 |
| gour | in any case, it is beautiful experience not being forced to look at the e.g. Samsung crap of bloatware forced upon poor user | 10:00 |
| Keto | you can set the description in account settings | 10:00 |
| gour | Keto: ahh, great! I thought it was field for username and not description 😄 | 10:16 |
