Project description

Basic hCalendar Parser
======================

Dependencies
------------
- isodate [http://pypi.python.org/pypi/isodate/]
- Beautiful Soup 4 [http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/]

Installation
-------------
Install all dependencies by using the following commands:

pip install isodate
pip install BeautifulSoup4

Install the parser by cloning the source from github.com:

git clone git://github.com/mback2k/python-hcalendar.git hcalendar

Basic Example
-------------
The hCalendar class accepts file-like objects and strings, basically anything supported by BeautifulSoup

from hcalendar import hCalendar

html = """<div class="vcalendar"><div class="vevent">
<a class="url" href="http://conferences.oreillynet.com/pub/w/40/program.html">
http://conferences.oreillynet.com/pub/w/40/program.html
</a>
<span class="summary">Web 2.0 Conference</span>:
<abbr class="dtstart" title="2005-10-05">October 5</abbr>-
<abbr class="dtend" title="2005-10-07">7</abbr>,
at the <span class="location">Argent Hotel, San Francisco, CA</span>
</div></div>"""

hcal = hCalendar(html)
for cal in hcal:
for event in cal:
print event.url
print event.summary
print event.dtstart
print event.dtend
print event.location

HTML source code taken from [microformats.org](http://microformats.org/wiki/hcalendar). Output will look like this:

http://conferences.oreillynet.com/pub/w/40/program.html
Web 2.0 Conference
2005-10-05 00:00:00
2005-10-07 00:00:00
Argent Hotel, San Francisco, CA

TODO
====
- Implement support for hCard contacts and attendees
- Implement support for geo locations
- Maybe support for other microformats?
