vCardigan

vCardigan is a ruby library for building and parsing vCards that supports both v3.0 and v4.0.

Note: This library is no longer called vCardMate!

Installation

gem install vcardigan

Usage

Creating a vCard

vcard = VCardigan.create(:version => '3.0')

vCard Versions

vCardigan supports vCard versions 3.0 and 4.0. Support for 2.1 is not currently expected. You may pass the version number as an argument to VCardigan.create; the default is 4.0. You may also change the version at any time:

vcard.version '4.0'

Rendering a vCard

vcard.to_s

Adding properties to a vCard

vcard = VCardigan.create
vcard.name 'Strummer', 'Joe'
vcard.fullname 'Joe Strummer'
vcard.photo 'http://strummer.com/joe.jpg', :type => 'uri'
vcard.email 'joe@strummer.com', :type => ['work', 'internet'], :preferred => 1
vcard[:item1].url 'http://strummer.com'
vcard[:item1].label 'Other'
puts vcard

The above would output:

BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:4.0
N:Strummer;Joe;;;
FN:Joe Strummer
PHOTO;TYPE=uri:http://strummer.com/joe.jpg
EMAIL;TYPE=work,internet;PREF=1:joe@strummer.com
item1.URL:http://strummer.com
item1.LABEL:Other
END:VCARD

Parsing a vCard

Using the above output as data, we could parse it as such:

vcard = VCardigan.parse(data)

vcard.n.first.values # ['strummer', 'joe', '', '', '']
vcard.photo.first.params # { 'type' => 'uri' }
vcard.email.first.params # { 'type' => ['work', 'internet'], 'preferred' => '1' }
vcard[:item1].url.first.value # http://strummer.com
