add attendees when importing a ICS file about gcalcli HOT 12 CLOSED

Maybe an explicit option to import to not include attendees?

I don't know what is causing this either but when I import a new .ics
files, generated from Google Calendar, all the attendees receive a
notification and, as they accept or refuse the meeting, I see their
acceptance or refusal on my calendar as it was the primary source.

This parameter defaults to false and we don't override that (at least
not as far as I can see.) Not sure there is anything else we can do this...

I am very sorry to comment on this but I'm seeing an issue where when I import a file all attendees are invited as well to the imported event on my calendar. Can this be optional during import please?

I can test whatever's needed in case there's a need.

awesome tool by the way!

I achieved part of it,
the following bit adds the organizer

1179 if hasattr(ve, 'description'):
1180 DebugPrint("DESCRIPTION: %s\n" % ve.description.value)
1181 if verbose:
1182 print "Description:\n%s" % ve.description.value
1183 event.content = atom.Content(text=ve.description.value)
1184
1185 if hasattr(ve, 'organizer'):
1186 DebugPrint("ORGANIZER: %s\n" % ve.organizer.value)
1187 if verbose:
1188 print "organizer:\n%s" % ve.organizer.value
1189 event.organizer = atom.Content(text=ve.organizer.value)

however to add the attendee the code needs to loop through the list of attendees and I haven't figured out how to do this yet in your code

I like this. If you're still pursuing this please submit a pull request.

@tresni's pull request was merged. Please use the latest gcalcli code from git.

lasombra - mind to share your ics file and method you use to import it to google calendar. I am stuck here.

Here's mine: https://pastebin.com/fv81LFsw when importing manually by using google calendar web client, it's still missing attendees

Thank you very much in advance.

Is there any update on this? I installed gcalcli today, imported my first calender invite via the following mutt macro
macro attach ,c "gcalcli --reminder=10 --detail_url=short --calendar='Dyumnin' import\n"

and it looks like it sent out invites to other participants...

@samsunix Unfortunately it took me 1 year to see your update.

I used the following command: gcalcli import --calendar="[email protected]" calendar_test_issue.ics

I still see the issue. Here's the screenshot, https://imgur.com/a/aRCWB6O. Notice that both guests are "awaiting"

from gcalcli.

This issue still persists. Should I file a new issue to track this down?
