@tcitworld, thanks for your PR! By analyzing the history of the files in this pull request, we identified @nickvergessen, @rullzer and @icewind1991 to be potential reviewers.

What I dislike about this is all the duplication of notifications we will get with that.
The plan is to have notifications integrated into the mobile and desktop clients as well. So when you have an event coming up, you will have 4 notifications (laptop nextcloud, laptop calendar, phone nextcloud, phone calendar).

That is why I always stayed away from this notifications. Might make sense to have them in the web ui, but I think most people have at least one client running which already gives the notifications....

@nickvergessen
The calendar standard defines different kinds of alarms. Audio, display and email..
E-Mail alarms should obviously only be triggered when the user actually asked for an email :)

rullzer · 2017-04-03T19:18:51Z

What is the status here? Can this be reviewed soon?

georgehrke · 2017-06-02T08:45:14Z

@tcitworld What's your schedule for this feature? :)

tcitworld · 2017-06-30T13:05:25Z

Will change this to work on the backend already used for Activities made by @nickvergessen

Should emails reminders be sent to all ATTENDEES or just nextcloud users ?

Did you check any RFC for an answer on that? :)

tcitworld · 2017-07-17T08:26:05Z

  When the action is "EMAIL", the alarm MUST include a "DESCRIPTION"
  property, which contains the text to be used as the message body,
  a "SUMMARY" property, which contains the text to be used as the
  message subject, and one or more "ATTENDEE" properties, which
  contain the email address of attendees to receive the message.  It
  can also include one or more "ATTACH" properties, which are
  intended to be sent as message attachments.  When the alarm is
  triggered, the email message is sent.

  [...]

  In an EMAIL alarm, the intended alarm effect is for an email
  message to be composed and delivered to all the addresses
  specified by the "ATTENDEE" properties in the "VALARM" calendar
  component.  The "DESCRIPTION" property of the "VALARM" calendar
  component MUST be used as the body text of the message, and the
  "SUMMARY" property MUST be used as the subject text.  Any "ATTACH"
  properties in the "VALARM" calendar component SHOULD be sent as
  attachments to the message.

@georgehrke @jancborchardt Today, when you set an alarm, you are not automatically added as an attendee, but I guess you would like to get the notifications anyway.
What about people with whom the calendar is shared (a group, for instance) ? Should they automatically get the notifications too while not manually added to ATTENDEES (they can be a lot) ?

Maybe an issue in calendar repo to automatically add yourself as an attendee ? Or another one to add a group as attendee ?

tcitworld · 2017-07-17T08:27:08Z

Also, if someone plz have a look why my notifications aren't displayed. :'(

jancborchardt · 2017-07-17T10:04:36Z

Sharing an event with someone should mean they are invited to add themselves as attending. But not set them as attending automatically.

tcitworld · 2017-07-17T11:42:15Z

add themselves as attending

Would like to discuss more on that on the calendar app repo, maybe a easier way to add yourself as an attendee instead of typing your own username? A checkbox?
Would also be great if someone could tell me how Apple's iCal handles this issue for instance.

pixelipo · 2017-10-13T10:17:44Z

Hi @tcitworld any status on this? It's a killer feature for me and if there's a bounty, I'm willing to pitch in.

Also if you need some dev/design help, let me know.

tcitworld · 2017-10-13T10:22:05Z

No bounty yet. Feel free to have a look and add answers to my questions.

georgehrke · 2017-11-11T16:29:52Z

Not sure if there is a little confusion here:

We are talking about different kinds of attendees here.
There can be attendees in VEvents, the one you see in the event editor, and attendees inside VAlarm blocks. The latter one are for sending out e-mail notifications. You can be an attendee inside the VAlarm block without being an actual attendee of the event.

What about people with whom the calendar is shared (a group, for instance) ?

See my comment in #679 (comment)

Should they automatically get the notifications too while not manually added to ATTENDEES (they can be a lot) ?

They should be able to manage their own VAlarm block for each event and hence be able to add themselves for reminders. Not sure about the default here.
If u are an actual attendee of the event, you should get a notification too.

Maybe an issue in calendar repo to automatically add yourself as an attendee ?

Yep, please open one :)

Or another one to add a group as attendee ?

Maybe. It's important to provide an opt-out mechanism here imho.

@nickvergessen @tcitworld @georgehrke It doesn't look like something for 13, right?

+				$message->setTo([$emailAddress]);
+				$message->useTemplate($template);
+
+				try {


While you're at it: it would be great if you could dispatch an event here containing the message. This can be subscribed by other apps so they can modify / extend the message before it is sent out.

Can we do that in a separate PR please? We are planning to release a beta of 17 later this week, so this has to get in if we want it in 17.

apps/dav/lib/CalDAV/Reminder/NotificationProvider/EmailProvider.php

rullzer

In general I'm all for merging this. I'm sure there are things we didn't think of yet. But lets get this in before it gets to huge.

I just wonder about the migration change.

apps/dav/lib/BackgroundJob/BuildReminderIndexBackgroundJob.php

rullzer · 2019-08-13T18:11:25Z

apps/dav/lib/CalDAV/Reminder/Backend.php

+ *
+ * @package OCA\DAV\CalDAV\Reminder
+ */
+class Backend {


I'm fine with this for now. But it might make sense to try to eventually convert this to the Entity stuff of the appframework.

rullzer · 2019-08-13T18:16:38Z

apps/dav/lib/CalDAV/Reminder/Notifier.php

+		if ($diff->invert) {
+			$title = $this->l10n->t('%s (in %s)', [$title, $diffLabel]);
+		} else {
+			$title = $this->l10n->t('%s (%s ago)', [$title, $diffLabel]);


So i guess we either have to give good hints to the translators. Or we have to somehow fix this later to have proper translations. Because I can already see languages where this looks weird.

rullzer · 2019-08-13T18:18:18Z

apps/dav/lib/CalDAV/Reminder/ReminderService.php

+	/** @var ITimeFactory */
+	private $timeFactory;
+
+	public const REMINDER_TYPE_EMAIL = 'EMAIL';


If we have the types here. Shouldn't we just reference them from the providers themselfs?

as in have a method getSupportedTypes?

if you configure email reminder alert to calendar on nextcloud already please send step to configure take me

+
+		switch($action) {

Ah magic string ;)
But yeah lets do it for now.

Looks good.
Lets see if phan is happy and get it in.

Is this part of 17.0.1?

EDIT: It is. However I don't get notifications also sending emails works. I suppose those are triggered by cronjobs?
