Events on the map #3

Open jancborchardt opened 7 years ago

jancborchardt commented 7 years ago

It would be cool to have events show up on the map when they have a location set and are in the near future (the next 4 weeks).

@MorrisJobke mentioned that GMaps does this. Would be a great way to inter-connect Nextcloud apps like this! cc @v1r0x @brantje and @georgehrke for Calendar

andreasjacobsen93 commented 7 years ago

This would be a really cool feature, but I don't know how much it would be used.

georgehrke commented 7 years ago

I think we should implement a Calendar API in the server, just like the contacts API. Implementing a CalDAV client with all the parsing XML logic would be an overkill for a maps app.

jancborchardt commented 7 years ago

@georgehrke sounds good!

@andreasjacobsen93 it's not a matter of being used intentionally, it's about connecting the apps and achieving convergence. This is one of the big points why people use Google and Apple apps.

Spartachetto commented 7 years ago

As I wrote in #18, I would love to have even more integration: displaying info from more than one app (e.g.: events + contacts) would let the user interact with them with no effort!

e-alfred commented 5 years ago

This is the issue from the calendar app: https://github.com/nextcloud/calendar/issues/584

Now that Caldav is integrated into the server directly one major problem regarding this feature is already solved?

georgehrke commented 5 years ago

@e-alfred These two issues are not related at all. nextcloud/calendar#584 is about showing a map in the event editor.

This ticket is about showing pins for upcoming events in the maps app.

We also implemented the calendar API as i suggested above. Can be found at https://github.com/nextcloud/server/blob/master/lib/public/Calendar/ICalendar.php

The Friendica federated systems have events calendars. I can see how sharing an event from there to a Nextcloud circle or contacts list/group could be useful in marketing a concert, live event, company picnic, flashmob, etc.

jancborchardt commented 5 years ago

This is mostly about seeing your own events on a map. See https://www.blog.google/products/maps/now-you-can-see-your-google-calendar-events-google-maps/

WNYmathGuy commented 5 years ago

Right, @jancborchardt but if my Nextcloud was pulling in a calendar from somewhere else by the "Subscription" feature, they would be my event's right?

georgehrke commented 5 years ago

The calendar API does not expose subscriptions at the moment, so no. Feel free to open a feature request for that in the server repo.

Would be an interesting twist if it could be extended to a general Meetup-alternative:

h05hardman commented 1 year ago

Are there any updates on the possibilities of this feature?

LeidenSpain commented 1 year ago

Hello everyone,

We use nextcloud to manage a travel agency, so it would be great to be able to put travelers' dates on the calendar, and when adding the location, it would be shown on the map.

It would serve to quickly locate where all travelers are, for emergencies as has happened in Morocco.

Is there news on this?

Hi, On our NC, we have many theater / music band and one music production. We hope that this feature can born one day for the tours plannings !

Thanks a lot for all the work !
