What's the status of this. Could it be closed? In case you can reproduce, please attach the full error / config.h Could it be related to https://github.com/hhirsch/abook/commit/cd89336963801a31c11977ad64c0c815de4e5ede ?

There is already an internal DB structure implementation which is unlikely to change. XML output would be better handled by an external tool assuming abook generates a nice output. And TAB-delimited CSV ("allcsv"), "vcard" or even "custom" formats are here for this purpose : not as generic as XML could be, but sufficiently predictable, consistent and exhaustive to let anyone convert this output to XML or anything else. Overall, XML doesn't sound adequate for exporting abook contacts, in 2025 - because...

vcard patch was included in 8b4f653 which was already in 0.6.1 feel free create a new bug adding sample input in case of other format conversion errors in 0.6.2

Somehow fixed in aef4219d2 part of 0.6.2 As long as the long-running interactive instance doesn't make change to the DB, it can be modified externally.

XDG Base Directory Specification, patch #7 fixing FR #13
-
Keith Bowes posted a comment on ticket #13
My submitted patch still uses ~/.abook if it's present as not to break existing installations but uses $XDG_DATA_HOME/abook for new installations. Here's to hoping it'll land in 0.6.2, if there's ever such a thing (with all the improvements made since 0.6.1, there should be).

Hello The abook website says that abook supports v card but how do I implement this? How do I export my abook contacts to other vcard supported devices?

abook overrides the whole file when saving. It comes with mentioned drawbacks but any modification in the direction of "CRUD file operations" would inevitable imply much more code to create/debug/maintain which is something no-one is currently willing (aside from maintenance, there is no active abook developer currently)

don't remove comments in addressbook file
-
Hi @gibboris , thanks for your quick reply. I would think, that the effect of having to use the abook application with the --datafile argument, each time the application is called (from within mutt and from the command line) makes it necessary to always remember that location each time. But when the --datafile flag could be set within abook's configuration file (default is ~/.abook/abookrc) I could set it once there and forget about it in the future. As far as I have seen, there is no way to set...
-
I think the right approach is to use the --datafile flag everywhere you want to use a custom location. I'd be less "magic" than a symlink and more predictable. There have been an attempt into respecting XDG standards (which would apply to the data directory) https://sourceforge.net/p/abook/feature-requests/13/ https://sourceforge.net/p/abook/mailman/abook-devel/?viewmonth=202011 but these was not merged so far.

Hello I am wanting to transfer contacts between abook and my macs contacts. Any Ideas?
-
May possible explanations: - file wasn't saved in the first place (unwritable HOME directory? You should have received a warning) - file was saved at a custom path (abook was aliased, configuration changed it?) - file was saved at a path that changed (your HOME was mounted/remounted/moved between reboot) - file was saved at a path that disappeared (your HOME was cleaned, eg live-system, ...) By default abook saves datafile into $HOME/.abook/addressbook Note: A first patch (not ready for merge yet)...
-
You may want to - Read current documentation (provide as man pages), man abook and man abookrc - Identify if anything is actually missing / unclear - Patch the documentation (in man format) and send the diff as an attachment to the abook-devel list Before you actually go into detailed modification, you may want to post there what you feel is lacking from the existing documentation and how you intend to fix it.

0.6.1 add #include <string.h>

I doubt it's the right fix to unconditional include it. string.h is included either if: - It's VMS - It's GNU_LIBRARY - You HAVE_STRING_H If all of these are wrong, you should rather check the result of ./configure and config.h

autotools definitely needs an update. I tried a (too) big toolchain update some years ago + autogenerate as much as possible (gnulib) https://gitlab.com/drzraf/abook/commit/fb4b8fb6851470c85d0a4d8ae6c549000699a98f but got some problems with wchars.
