Add offline support - integrate with `Timetable` #10

Closed athityakumar closed 7 years ago

If internet connection doesn't exist, store the event to be added to calendar in some json file. And later when there's internet connection, sync it to Google calendar.

Internet connection can be determined by posting a request to Google.com or something (neglecting the probability of Google's server being down) & checking it's response...

Also, is a terminal version of this possible for offline cases? I mean, can ALL the events be stored into json and be accessed with bash commands with tab auto_complete feature?

Seems interesting. You had made something related to this. Right?

I had a dynamic bash_autocomplete stuff built in ruby. Would require a little twerking to fit in here though. Reference : https://github.com/athityakumar/data

Also, @arunpatro suggested that it'd be great if the subjects could be color-coded.

Source for new offline support repository : https://github.com/athityakumar/timetable

Yet to be tweaked to facilitate offline support for gyft.

@athityakumar I'd like to know more about the color coding idea.

icyflame commented 7 years ago

The event data is already present in the data.txt file. If any other utility wants to use it, there's no reason it shouldn't! Generate ICS will generate a standard ICS as well. @athityakumar If there is something specific you plan to do, please re-open the issue. I am cleaning up the issues dashboard. :slightly_smiling_face:
