[Remind-Fans] From remind to Google calendar

[Monty Zukowski]

Yes, I did try yours.  From what I read about iCalendar, it expects
the timezone to be defined in a VTIMEZONE declaration.  Your tool
relies on the importing tool's predefined timezones.

Thanks for asking too, because it showed me an error in the script I
posted.  Here's one that actually has the tiimezone info generated in
the ics file:

import vobject, datetime
import subprocess, string
import PyICU

pst = PyICU.ICUtzinfo.getInstance('US/Pacific')

class Event:
    def __init__(self, date, time, duration, msg):
        global pst
        self.date=date
        self.time=time
        self.duration=duration
        self.msg=msg
        self.dtstart=datetime.datetime.strptime(date+" " +time,
"%Y/%m/%d %I:%M%p").replace(tzinfo=pst)
        self.dtend = self.dtstart + datetime.timedelta(minutes=int(duration))

def events():
    output = subprocess.Popen(["remind", "-s",
"/home/monty/.reminders"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()[0]
    events = []
    for line in string.split(output, '\n'):
        if string.strip(line):
            print line
            t=string.split(line)
            date = t[0]
            time = t[5]
            duration = t[3]
            msg = string.join(t[6:])
            events.append(Event( date, time, duration, msg))
    return events

cal = vobject.iCalendar()
cal.add('prodid').value='-//Remind2ical//codetransform.com//'
cal.add('version').value='2.0'
cal.add('method').value='PUBLISH'

events = events()

for e in events:
  ev1 = cal.add('vevent')
  ev1.add('dtstart').value = e.dtstart
  ev1.add('dtend').value = e.dtend
  ev1.add('dtstamp').value = datetime.datetime.now(pst)
  ev1.add('summary').value = e.msg

f = open('monty.ics', 'w')
f.write( cal.serialize())
f.close()
