iCalendar files?

I was thinking of doing the requisite hacking to get RT to generate iCal
files, either for a queue, or for a user.

I just wanted to check if anyone has done similiar work already, or has
any suggestions.

thanks

I don’t have anything to add except encouragement. I’d be very
interested in this.

I’ve done it, in an attempt to load it into apple’s iCal. iCal.app just
isn’t up to it yet. Below, is the code I was using, as a mason template:

BEGIN:VCALENDAR
CALSCALE:GREGORIAN
VERSION:2.0
%while (my $ticket = $tix->Next) {
% my $transactions = $ticket->Transactions;
% while (my $trans = $transactions->Next) {
% my $start = Date::ICal->new( epoch => $ticket->CreatedObj->Unix);
% my $end = Date::ICal->new( epoch => ($ticket->CreatedObj->Unix+ ‘600’));
BEGIN:VEVENT
SUMMARY:#<%$ticket->Id%>: <%$trans->Description%> (<%$ticket->Subject%>)
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:<% $start->ical%>
DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:<% $end->ical %>
END:VEVENT
% }}
END:VCALENDAR
%$m->abort();
<%init>
$r->content_type(‘text/plain’);

use Date::ICal;
my $tix = RT::Tickets->new($RT::SystemUser);
my $month_ago = RT::Date->new($RT::SystemUser);
$month_ago->Set( Format => ‘Unix’, Value => (time-(86400*30)));

$tix->Limit(FIELD => ‘Created’, OPERATOR => ‘>’, VALUE => $month_ago->ISO);
