The '''osso-addressbook''' application is the main interface to the Maemo contacts database, which in turn stores its contacts in the so called "Evolution Data Server" (EDS).

One way to synchronize is CardDAV. The commands below assume that you have already set up synchronisation as discussed in [[Calendar]].
 
 
 
<pre>
syncevolution --configure \
    database=http://localhost:5223/USER/UUID/ \
    backend=carddav \
    target-config@radicale contacts
 
syncevolution --configure \
    sync=two-way \
    backend=evolution-contacts \
    radicale contacts
</pre>
 
And then run the initial sync:
 
<pre>
syncevolution --sync slow radicale contacts
</pre>
 
And the next time you want to synchronise, just call:


<pre>
The address book also integrates directly with any messaging and telephone accounts that are set up, for example, if a jabber/XMPP account is online, the contacts of that account will be shown in the address book, as well as the online status of the contact.
syncevolution --sync two-way radicale contacts
</pre>

The custom Maemo Syncevolution frontend has also been ported and is available in the application manager; which can be used to set up scheduled synchronisation.

Addressbook application

The osso-addressbook application is the main interface to the Maemo contacts database, which in turn stores its contacts in the so called "Evolution Data Server" (EDS). The Maemo contacts are stored in a sqlite3 database located at /home/user/.local/share/evolution/addressbook/system/contacts.db, but this database is managed by EDS and it's best to interface with EDS directly.

Telepathy integration

The address book also integrates directly with any messaging and telephone accounts that are set up, for example, if a jabber/XMPP account is online, the contacts of that account will be shown in the address book, as well as the online status of the contact.

Synchronisation

Check out the Sync page on how to synchronise your contacts.
