# Vdirsyncer
`vdirsyncer` can sync calendars and contacts using the caldav and carddav
protocol.
## Setup
### Arch-Linux
- `pacman -S vdirsyncer` - Install needed packages
### Configuration
- Edit the `~/.config/vdirsyncer/config`.
- Insert the following lines:
```txt
[general]
status_path = "~/.cache/vdirsyncer/status"
#calendar
[pair private_calendar]
a = "private_calendar_local"
b = "private_calendar_remote"
collections = ["from a", "from b"]
metadata = ["color"]
[storage private_calendar_local]
type = "filesystem"
path = "~/.local/share/pim/calendars/private_calendar"
fileext = ".ics"
[storage private_calendar_remote]
type = "caldav"
url = "https://<url>"
auth = "basic"
username = "<username>"
password = "<password>"
#contacts
[pair private_contacts]
a = "private_contacts_local"
b = "private_contacts_remote"
collections = ["from a", "from b"]
[storage private_contacts_local]
type = "filesystem"
path = "~/.local/share/pim/contacts"
fileext = ".vcf"
[storage private_contacts_remote]
type = "carddav"
url = "https://<url>"
username = "<username>"
password = "<password>"
auth = "basic"
```
Replace specific lines with your information.
You can set multiple contact and calendar syncs at once.
