I have made an exporter for contacts which is basically a modification of apps/calendar/export.php. Will have a look at the Exporter today. Looking at the exports it creates I can only see it useful for an administrator. Wouldn't it be an idea to have something similar under 'Personal' where the users could select what to export - Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks etc, and perhaps links to a help page of setting up remote backup? I also wanted to ask if it would make sense to have a third authentication method? Now /index.php handles form based login and http auth. If we added a token based authentication the user would be able to backup PIM data without weird wget parameters using a URL like: http://localhost/owncloud/apps/calendar/export.php?user=xxxxx&authtoken=XXXXXXXXXXcalid=1 where authtoken could be (re)generated from the UI - or simply be the password hash already in the DB - or a hash of the hash ;-P As you can hear I don't know much about how to do such stuff :-D -- Med venlig hilsen / Best Regards Thomas Olsen _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
