I’ve got myself a new project. A iCalendar parser.
Right now it’s getting close to some initial testing. Which is why I need you!
Do you have any need for parsing iCalendar files/feeds? If you do, I’d like to bounce some ideas on how to create the API.
Also - I’m looking for testing-material. If you have a custom-written iCalendar feed send it my way so I can see if my parser blows up.
The code I do have can be found here: https://svn.sevengoslings.net/icalreader.
The code is released under a Creative Commons license. More specifically the Attribution-Share Alike 2.5 Denmark license.
Update: There is now a nice test page: the SG iCalReader Tryout.

Nice. Tak. Virker nu.
March 23, 2008, 9:56 pmIt looks great man, but I’m tryign to use the ical link from a public google calendar, and it seems that a random event or two might come through, but most don’t. I don’t know if gCal gives a perfect iCal feed or not, but I thouhgt you might want to know. If you would liek the cal URL, send me a note.
I’d love to use this if it imports from the gCal!
April 2, 2008, 2:53 pmI’m using Google calendar that i want to mashup in my wordpress site.
So was looking for some basic code that will parse the ical feed so I can then put it up in a widget or whatever. I was using the upcoming events plug-in but it doesn’t handle recurring events. Just tried your feed and it would appear that it doesn’t handle them either - any plans to include in your disribution?

Yes. As a matter of fact I’m working on recurring events in these days. I’m getting there, but it’s not pretty nor fast.
I hope to have a version ready at the end of next week that will handle recurring events correctly - or at the very least the most common types of recurrence working.

Link’s down? Says it’s “permanently moved”
