Let's do an exercise.

We will need the external API of kronolith, especially

put() https://github.com/horde/kronolith/blob/master/lib/Api.php#L263
browser() https://github.com/horde/kronolith/blob/master/lib/Api.php#L58

Create a new file kronolith/bin/events and make it executable (+x) - you
could also use the horde admin php shell and select context Kronolith

First some boilerplate

#!/usr/bin/env
php                                                                                                   

<?php                                                                                                                

$baseDir = __DIR__ . '/../';
require_once $baseDir . 'lib/Application.php';
Horde_Registry::appInit('kronolith', array('cli' => true));

This initializes kronolith as admin.

Now let's begin browsing.

// authorize as lang (replace with your name)

$registry->setAuth('lang', array(), array());

// Dive into the calendar path step by step (app, owner, calendar)

print_r($registry->call('calendar/browse', array()));

// This gives you the available calendars both as a dir of individual
event files and as an ics file of all events

print_r($registry->call('calendar/browse', array('kronolith/lang')));

// dive into one of these

print_r($registry->call('calendar/browse',
array('kronolith/lang/KI14jYtCMpbet4ecYzAg1bn.ics')));
print_r($registry->call('calendar/browse',
array('kronolith/lang/KI14jYtCMpbet4ecYzAg1bn')));


Now you know how to use the api and you see examples of event
description structure.

Now use put() to put an event into a calendar

* Saves a file into the Kronolith tree.

*

* @param string $path The path where to PUT the file.

* @param string $content The file content.

* @param string $content_type The file's content type.

*

* @return array The event UIDs.

* @throws Kronolith_Exception

Hope that helps a bit.
