So, I’ve got a homelab thing going, with NextCloud and Immich and other things… using Docker. But the one thing I can’t seem to wrap my head around is how to get my calendar needs met behind the scenes. I’m hoping there’s some sort of calendar syncing server I can use.
The problem: I use NextCloud and another android app to use my calendar. Easy. Historically, my household has used a single Google Calendar shared amongst members.
The real problem: They won’t ditch Google. But I need a solution so that I can:
- Sync their calendar events to my NextCloud calendar.
- Sync my calendar events to their Google Calendar. I think that the issue here is, the share links that the calendars give, can only be used to list a new separate calendar on each of the respective platforms - not sync the events between the existing calendars…
I’m hoping that there’s maybe a syncing solution out there that can play middle man and sync the two calendars directly, rather than having separate calendars for the two environments?
@KingDingbat I don’t have a good answer for you (I’m in a similar situation, with my wife stuck using both google calendar and microsoft’s extremely shitty calendar, while I use radicale). However, depending upon your goals for self-hosting your calendar, I’d ask whether you really *want* google seeing your calendar entries. If your goal is independence, then fine. If one of your goals is privacy, then sharing your calendar entries w/ google messes that up.
