Exactly...we need something that uses Ruby on Rails to access the data and create the calendar.

Is it possible to use the google calendar to access mysql data on a local database server and crease a calendar? :-) or must the data reside on the google calendar system?

You could write a parsing system in ruby/rails that uses mysql as it''s backend and then parses out that info to google calendar through their api. But you''d need to parse it, you cannnot connect google calendar directly to a DB. You can however use google calendar as a data storage as well and then write your front end. But if you want to use google calendar as your front and store things in a DB then you will need to coerce the data into a format that the api can use. http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/overview.html for more info about the api. Hope this helps, Cam On Aug 15, 9:29 am, David <passa...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Is it possible to use the google calendar to access mysql data on a > local database server and crease a calendar? :-) or must the data > reside on the google calendar system? > > On Aug 14, 7:28 pm, David <passa...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > > Exactly...we need something that uses Ruby on Rails to access the data > > and create the calendar. > > > On Aug 14, 7:24 pm, Glimjaur <glimj...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > > > Written in rails, i suppose?

Thanks! I guess there are no good helpers already written to help this along. I hate to create the wheel again and know someone must be willing to share a library they wrote already. Hope to find that generous person.

If you provide your users with an URL (with no authentication, since Google has no way to provide credentials), they will be able to enter it into the Google Calendar interface and view their calendar. This URL will also make it possible for iCal (i.e. on MacOS X) and Sunbird users to view their calendars. If, in addition, you implement full CalDAV support (see RFC 4791) then users of iCal and Sunbird will also be able to edit their calendars, though Google does not (yet?) support CalDAV in any way. --Greg> On Aug 14, 7:28 pm, David <passa...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > Exactly...we need something that uses Ruby on Rails to access the data > > and create the calendar. > > > > On Aug 14, 7:24 pm, Glimjaur <glimj...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > > > > Written in rails, i suppose?

How about something that you can setup a mysql table and use ruby on rails to create the calendar...switch between daily, weekly, two week and monthly views....create recurring events and so on....like a regular calendar.

Any ideas?I think you''re really out of luck here, I even doubt you''ll find such an all-in-one solution out in the open in any web programming language.

This is a very helpful conversation, I want to thank you for all the resources provided, I have been reseraching for a while on this topic and found some interesting ones I would like to share: About Google It looks like it is possible, I''m working on make it happen, look: "Or you can generate a public calendar for Google Calendar to display, based on your organization''s event database." extract from: http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/docs/2.0/developers_guide_protocol.html To study: http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/articles/gdata_on_rails.html A good plugin, depending on our needs It could be what we need: http://code.google.com/p/calendardateselect/ This guys made an amazing job, I would like to know more about their implementation: http://demo.placid.be/account/login It will be amazing to have something like the hula project, it''s a shame nobody is working on this, maybe I''ll retake this project, but working on Ruby of coure :). Have a look at the demo: http://nat.org/2005/august/hula.html I''s my understanding Novell was providing resources for this project but they abandoned the project.
