[Feature Request] predefined addressbooks

[Andrwe]

Hi,

it would be nice if you would implement following features:

• option to disable user-configured addressbooks
• option to define addressbooks in config which will be set for each user with variables which will be replaced by session-variables e.g.: https://carddav-server/%u/addressbook // %u = roundcube login user
• option to set default password for an addressbook with variables which will be replaced by session-variables e.g.: carddav['pass'] = '%p' // %p = roundcube login password
• option to set default user for an addressbook with variables which will be replaced by session-variables e.g.: carddav['user'] = '%u' // %u = roundcube login user

With these improvements it'll be possible to predefine addressbooks for each user which can't be changed thus the admin can control the addressbooks of the users.

Kind regards, Andrwe

Predefined addressbooks are not planed at the moment, but I will keep it in mind. I'll not close this issue so that this request will not be forgotten ;)

I want to support this feature request. It would allow site administrators to preconfigure stuff for users so that when they log in everything works (and they don't have to look for/find out what their CardDAV URL is). This would also make the carddav plugin more similar to the calendar (CalDAV) plugin setupwise.

I've got many requests like yours and decided to add this feature within the next major release.
