NAME
gcalcli - interact with a Google Calendar
SYNOPSIS
gcalcli [options] command [command args or options]
DESCRIPTION
gcalcli is a Python application that allows you to access your Google Calendar(s) from a command line.
It's easy to get your agenda, search for events, add new events, delete events, edit events, and even
import those annoying ICS/vCal invites from Microsoft Exchange and/or other sources. Additionally,
gcalcli can be used as a reminder service and execute any application you want when an event is coming
up.

Google Calendar Command Line Interface
configuration:
gcalcli supports a few other configuration mechanisms in addition to
the command-line arguments listed below.
$GCALCLI_CONFIG=~/.config/gcalcli
Path to user config directory or file.
Note: this path is also used to determine fallback paths to check
for cache/oauth files to be migrated into their proper data dir
paths.
~/.config/gcalcli/config.toml
A toml config file where some general-purpose settings can be
configured.
Schema:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/insanum/gcalcli/HEAD/data/config-schema.json
gcalclirc @ ~/.config/gcalcli/gcalclirc
A flag file listing additional command-line args to always pass,
one per line.
Note: Use this sparingly and prefer other configuration mechanisms
where available. This flag file mechanism can be brittle
(example: https://github.com/insanum/gcalcli/issues/513).
positional arguments:
{init,list,search,edit,delete,agenda,agendaupdate,updates,conflicts,calw,calm,quick,add,import,remind,config,util}
Invoking a subcommand with --help prints subcommand
usage.
init initialize authentication, etc
list list available calendars
search search for events within an optional time period
edit edit calendar events
delete delete events from the calendar
agenda get an agenda for a time period
agendaupdate update calendar from agenda TSV file
updates get updates since a datetime for a time period
(defaults to through end of current month)
conflicts find event conflicts
calw get a week-based agenda in calendar format
calm get a month agenda in calendar format
quick quick-add an event to a calendar
add add a detailed event to the calendar
import import an ics/vcal file to a calendar
remind execute command if event occurs within <mins> time
config utility commands to work with configuration
util low-level utility commands for introspection, dumping
schemas, etc
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--version show program's version number and exit
--client-id CLIENT_ID
API client_id (default: None)
--client-secret CLIENT_SECRET
API client_secret (default: None)
--noauth_local_server
Provide instructions for authenticating from a remote
system using port forwarding. Note: Previously this
option invoked an "Out-Of-Band" variant of the auth
flow, but that deprecated mechanism is no longer
supported. (default: True)
--config-folder CONFIG_FOLDER
Optional directory used to load config files.
Deprecated: prefer $GCALCLI_CONFIG. (default:
~/.config/gcalcli)
--noincluderc Whether to include ~/.gcalclirc. (default: True)
--calendar GLOBAL_CALENDARS
Which calendars to use, in the format "CalendarName"
or "CalendarName#color". Supported here globally for
compatibility purposes, but prefer passing to
individual commands after the command name since this
global version is brittle. (default: [])
--default-calendar DEFAULT_CALENDARS
Optional default calendar to use if no --calendar
options are given (default: [])
--locale LOCALE System locale (default: )
--refresh Delete and refresh cached data (default: False)
--nocache Execute command without using cache (default: True)
--conky Use Conky color codes (default: False)
--nocolor Enable/Disable all color output (default: True)
--lineart {fancy,unicode,ascii}
Choose line art style for calendars: "fancy": for
VTcodes, "unicode" for Unicode box drawing characters,
"ascii" for old-school plusses, hyphens and pipes.
(default: fancy)
DIAGNOSTICS
Encoding issues, wrongly printed characters, UnicodeEncodeError when using conky, in pipes or scripts"
- Set an environment variable PYTHONIOENCODING=utf8
- Use a Unicode capable font like DejaVu Sans Mono
- Set option --lineart=unicode or --lineart=ascii
No colors or garbage characters when using inside conky
- Set option --conky
