Creates the backend.

public __construct(\PDO $pdo): mixed

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$pdo \PDO

getCalendarsForUser

Returns a list of calendars for a principal.

public getCalendarsForUser(string $principalUri): array

Every project is an array with the following keys: * id, a unique id that will be used by other functions to modify the calendar. This can be the same as the uri or a database key. * uri. This is just the 'base uri' or 'filename' of the calendar. * principaluri. The owner of the calendar. Almost always the same as principalUri passed to this method.

Furthermore it can contain webdav properties in clark notation. A very common one is '{DAV:}displayname'.

Many clients also require: {urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav}supported-calendar-component-set For this property, you can just return an instance of Sabre\CalDAV\Xml\Property\SupportedCalendarComponentSet.

If you return {http://sabredav.org/ns}read-only and set the value to 1, ACL will automatically be put in read-only mode.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$principalUri string

createCalendar

Creates a new calendar for a principal.

public createCalendar(string $principalUri, string $calendarUri, array $properties): string

If the creation was a success, an id must be returned that can be used to reference this calendar in other methods, such as updateCalendar.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$principalUri string
$calendarUri string
$properties array

updateCalendar

Updates properties for a calendar.

public updateCalendar(mixed $calendarId, \Sabre\DAV\PropPatch $propPatch): mixed

The list of mutations is stored in a Sabre\DAV\PropPatch object. To do the actual updates, you must tell this object which properties you're going to process with the handle() method.

Calling the handle method is like telling the PropPatch object "I promise I can handle updating this property".

Read the PropPatch documentation for more info and examples.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed
$propPatch \Sabre\DAV\PropPatch

deleteCalendar

Delete a calendar and all it's objects.

public deleteCalendar(mixed $calendarId): mixed

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed

getCalendarObjects

Returns all calendar objects within a calendar.

public getCalendarObjects(mixed $calendarId): array

Every item contains an array with the following keys: * calendardata - The iCalendar-compatible calendar data * uri - a unique key which will be used to construct the uri. This can be any arbitrary string, but making sure it ends with '.ics' is a good idea. This is only the basename, or filename, not the full path. * lastmodified - a timestamp of the last modification time * etag - An arbitrary string, surrounded by double-quotes. (e.g.: ' "abcdef"') * size - The size of the calendar objects, in bytes. * component - optional, a string containing the type of object, such as 'vevent' or 'vtodo'. If specified, this will be used to populate the Content-Type header.

Note that the etag is optional, but it's highly encouraged to return for speed reasons.

The calendardata is also optional. If it's not returned 'getCalendarObject' will be called later, which is expected to return calendardata.

If neither etag or size are specified, the calendardata will be used/fetched to determine these numbers. If both are specified the amount of times this is needed is reduced by a great degree.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed

getCalendarObject

Returns information from a single calendar object, based on it's object uri.

public getCalendarObject(mixed $calendarId, string $objectUri): array|null

The object uri is only the basename, or filename and not a full path.

The returned array must have the same keys as getCalendarObjects. The 'calendardata' object is required here though, while it's not required for getCalendarObjects.

This method must return null if the object did not exist.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed
$objectUri string

getMultipleCalendarObjects

Returns a list of calendar objects.

public getMultipleCalendarObjects(mixed $calendarId, array $uris): array

This method should work identical to getCalendarObject, but instead return all the calendar objects in the list as an array.

If the backend supports this, it may allow for some speed-ups.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed
$uris array

createCalendarObject

Creates a new calendar object.

public createCalendarObject(mixed $calendarId, string $objectUri, string $calendarData): string|null

The object uri is only the basename, or filename and not a full path.

It is possible return an etag from this function, which will be used in the response to this PUT request. Note that the ETag must be surrounded by double-quotes.

However, you should only really return this ETag if you don't mangle the calendar-data. If the result of a subsequent GET to this object is not the exact same as this request body, you should omit the ETag.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed
$objectUri string
$calendarData string

updateCalendarObject

Updates an existing calendarobject, based on it's uri.

public updateCalendarObject(mixed $calendarId, string $objectUri, string $calendarData): string|null

The object uri is only the basename, or filename and not a full path.

It is possible return an etag from this function, which will be used in the response to this PUT request. Note that the ETag must be surrounded by double-quotes.

However, you should only really return this ETag if you don't mangle the calendar-data. If the result of a subsequent GET to this object is not the exact same as this request body, you should omit the ETag.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed
$objectUri string
$calendarData string

getDenormalizedData

Parses some information from calendar objects, used for optimized calendar-queries.

protected getDenormalizedData(string $calendarData): array

Returns an array with the following keys: * etag - An md5 checksum of the object without the quotes. * size - Size of the object in bytes * componentType - VEVENT, VTODO or VJOURNAL * firstOccurence * lastOccurence * uid - value of the UID property

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarData string

deleteCalendarObject

Deletes an existing calendar object.

public deleteCalendarObject(mixed $calendarId, string $objectUri): mixed

The object uri is only the basename, or filename and not a full path.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed
$objectUri string

calendarQuery

Performs a calendar-query on the contents of this calendar.

public calendarQuery(mixed $calendarId, array $filters): array

The calendar-query is defined in RFC4791 : CalDAV. Using the calendar-query it is possible for a client to request a specific set of object, based on contents of iCalendar properties, date-ranges and iCalendar component types (VTODO, VEVENT).

This method should just return a list of (relative) urls that match this query.

The list of filters are specified as an array. The exact array is documented by \Sabre\CalDAV\CalendarQueryParser.

Note that it is extremely likely that getCalendarObject for every path returned from this method will be called almost immediately after. You may want to anticipate this to speed up these requests.

This method provides a default implementation, which parses all the iCalendar objects in the specified calendar.

This default may well be good enough for personal use, and calendars that aren't very large. But if you anticipate high usage, big calendars or high loads, you are strongly adviced to optimize certain paths.

The best way to do so is override this method and to optimize specifically for 'common filters'.

Requests that are extremely common are: * requests for just VEVENTS * requests for just VTODO * requests with a time-range-filter on a VEVENT.

..and combinations of these requests. It may not be worth it to try to handle every possible situation and just rely on the (relatively easy to use) CalendarQueryValidator to handle the rest.

Note that especially time-range-filters may be difficult to parse. A time-range filter specified on a VEVENT must for instance also handle recurrence rules correctly. A good example of how to interpret all these filters can also simply be found in \Sabre\CalDAV\CalendarQueryFilter. This class is as correct as possible, so it gives you a good idea on what type of stuff you need to think of.

This specific implementation (for the PDO) backend optimizes filters on specific components, and VEVENT time-ranges.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed
$filters array

getCalendarObjectByUID

Searches through all of a users calendars and calendar objects to find an object with a specific UID.

public getCalendarObjectByUID(string $principalUri, string $uid): string|null

This method should return the path to this object, relative to the calendar home, so this path usually only contains two parts:

calendarpath/objectpath.ics

If the uid is not found, return null.

This method should only consider * objects that the principal owns, so any calendars owned by other principals that also appear in this collection should be ignored.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$principalUri string
$uid string

getChangesForCalendar

The getChanges method returns all the changes that have happened, since the specified syncToken in the specified calendar.

public getChangesForCalendar(mixed $calendarId, string $syncToken, int $syncLevel, int $limit = null): array|null

This function should return an array, such as the following:

[ 'syncToken' => 'The current synctoken', 'added' => [ 'new.txt', ], 'modified' => [ 'modified.txt', ], 'deleted' => [ 'foo.php.bak', 'old.txt' ] ];

The returned syncToken property should reflect the current syncToken of the calendar, as reported in the {http://sabredav.org/ns}sync-token property this is needed here too, to ensure the operation is atomic.

If the $syncToken argument is specified as null, this is an initial sync, and all members should be reported.

The modified property is an array of nodenames that have changed since the last token.

The deleted property is an array with nodenames, that have been deleted from collection.

The $syncLevel argument is basically the 'depth' of the report. If it's 1, you only have to report changes that happened only directly in immediate descendants. If it's 2, it should also include changes from the nodes below the child collections. (grandchildren)

The $limit argument allows a client to specify how many results should be returned at most. If the limit is not specified, it should be treated as infinite.

If the limit (infinite or not) is higher than you're willing to return, you should throw a Sabre\DAV\Exception\TooMuchMatches() exception.

If the syncToken is expired (due to data cleanup) or unknown, you must return null.

The limit is 'suggestive'. You are free to ignore it.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed
$syncToken string
$syncLevel int
$limit int

addChange

Adds a change record to the calendarchanges table.

protected addChange(mixed $calendarId, string $objectUri, int $operation): mixed

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$calendarId mixed
$objectUri string
$operation int 1 = add, 2 = modify, 3 = delete

getSubscriptionsForUser

Returns a list of subscriptions for a principal.

public getSubscriptionsForUser(string $principalUri): array

Every subscription is an array with the following keys: * id, a unique id that will be used by other functions to modify the subscription. This can be the same as the uri or a database key. * uri. This is just the 'base uri' or 'filename' of the subscription. * principaluri. The owner of the subscription. Almost always the same as principalUri passed to this method. * source. Url to the actual feed

Furthermore, all the subscription info must be returned too:

  1. {DAV:}displayname
  2. {http://apple.com/ns/ical/}refreshrate
  3. {http://calendarserver.org/ns/}subscribed-strip-todos (omit if todos should not be stripped).
  4. {http://calendarserver.org/ns/}subscribed-strip-alarms (omit if alarms should not be stripped).
  5. {http://calendarserver.org/ns/}subscribed-strip-attachments (omit if attachments should not be stripped).
  6. {http://apple.com/ns/ical/}calendar-color
  7. {http://apple.com/ns/ical/}calendar-order
  8. {urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:caldav}supported-calendar-component-set (should just be an instance of Sabre\CalDAV\Property\SupportedCalendarComponentSet, with a bunch of default components).
