AbstractBackend

Abstract Principal Backend.

Currently this class has no function. It's here for consistency and so we have a non-bc-breaking way to add a default generic implementation to functions we may add in the future.

Methods

findByUri

Finds a principal by its URI.

public findByUri(string $uri, string $principalPrefix): string|null

This method may receive any type of uri, but mailto: addresses will be the most common.

Implementation of this API is optional. It is currently used by the CalDAV system to find principals based on their email addresses. If this API is not implemented, some features may not work correctly.

This method must return a relative principal path, or null, if the principal was not found or you refuse to find it.

Parameters:

Parameter Type Description
$uri string
$principalPrefix string
