sql - iCalendar“字段”列表（用于基于 iCalendar 标准的数据库模式）

Question

我的应用程序必须处理日历信息（包括单次出现、重复等）。为了轻松与其他应用程序交互，我认为直接基于 iCalendar 格式（字段、关系、约束）创建我的数据库模式是一个好主意，这样我就可以通过 ORM 获得 iCalendar 兼容的对象，我可以在何时轻松公开需要。

我知道 RFC 是可用的，但它有点复杂，因为其中包含我目前不使用的所有附加信息。

有人可以指出一个更简单的来源来创建基于 iCal 标准的数据库模式（意味着字段/字段名称的列表及其与 iCal 条目的关系）？

谢谢！

我已经这样做了（仅适用于 VEvents，不支持 TODO 项目或期刊全文或类似的东西）。我的实现看起来像这样（在删除不特定于问题的列之后）：

-- One table for each event.  An event may have multiple rRules.
Create Table [vEvent]
    (vEventID Integer Identity(1, 1) Not Null
     Constraint [vEvent.pk]
     Primary Key
     Clustered
    ,title nVarChar(200) Not Null);

-- One table for rRules.
-- My application does NOT support the "bySetPos" rule, so that is not included.
Create Table [rRule]
    (rRuleID Integer Identity(1, 1) Not Null
     Constraint [rRule.pk]
     Primary Key
     Clustered
    ,vEventID Integer Not Null
     Constraint [fk.vEvent.rRules]

-- One table for exceptions to rRules.  In my application, this covers both
-- exDate and rDate.  I do NOT support extended rule logic here;  The RFC says
-- you should support the same sort of date calculations here as are supported
-- in rRules: exceptions can recur, etc.  I don't do that; mine is simply a
-- set of dates that are either "exceptions" (dates which don't appear, even
-- if the rule otherwise says they should) or "extras" (dates which do appear,
-- even if the rule otherwise wouldn't include them).  This has proved
-- sufficient for my application, and something that can be exported into a
-- valid iCalendar file--even if I can't import an iCalendar file that makes
-- use of recurring rules for exceptions to recurring rules.
Create Table [exDate]
    (exDateID Integer Identity(1, 1) Not Null
     Constraint [exDate.pk]
     Primary Key
     Clustered
    ,rRuleID Integer Not Null
     Constraint [fk.rRule.exDates]
     Foreign Key
     References [rRule] (rRuleID)
     On Update Cascade
     On Delete Cascade
    ,[date] DateTime Not Null
    ,[type] varChar(6) Not Null);  -- Type = "exDate" or "rDate" for me; YMMV.

为此，我有几个 SQL Server 2005+ CLR 函数可用于计算各种事件的日期。我发现以下表格非常有用：

Select * From dbo.getDatesByVEventID(@id, @startDate, @endDate)
Select * From dbo.getEventsByDateRange(@startDate, @endDate, @maxCount)

上面的实现很有趣！

是的，有点。Sunbird（开源 mozilla 日历）基于 sqlite，我刚刚下载并解压缩了他们的源代码。它有 .sql 文件。

ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/calendar/sunbird/releases/0.9/source/

mozilla\calendar\providers\storage\schema-7.sql -- 这是 sunbird 用来制作有效 iCal 文件的模式，所以它不会太糟糕。

非常感谢 Chris Nielsen 的上述出色解决方案。但是，我遇到了一些问题，所以我对其进行了修改。请注意，上面的解决方案是在 python sqlalchemy 中。我很快就会转换它。

我对克里斯的解决方案的主要困难（它们可能并不适用于所有人）是

我不需要他的解决方案中的许多列。我只需要可以帮助我处理事件和重复的列。这是 iCalendar 规范的错，而不是 Chris 的错。我下面的解决方案仅根据日历限制和顺序限制考虑重复规则。
某些列——最重要的是 dtStart 和 dtEnd——属于 VEVENT，而不是 RRULE，但 Chris 将它们放在 RRULE 中。这让我很困惑。VEVENT： https: //www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5545#section-3.6.1 规则： https ://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5545#section-3.3.10
我还需要弄清楚如何包含可能具有多种模式的时间表。例如，一个事件可能会在每周周五的下午 6 点至晚上 9 点发生，但也可能会在五一节的全天发生。这需要 dtStart 和 dtEnd 的灵活性。出于这个原因，我创建了一个包含表“SCHEDULE”，它与 EVENTS 保持多对多关系，而 EVENTS 与 RRULES 具有包含关系。

下面是我在 sqlalchemy 中的解决方案。我将尽快将其转换为 SQL。

你可以试试这个用于苹果 icalendar 的文档。您可以将字段直接复制到数据库表中。 http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#DOCUMENTATION/AppleApplications/Reference/SyncServicesSchemaRef/Articles/Calendars.html
如果您使用 java，ical4j 提供模式和接口之间的粘合剂。如果不使用java，源代码中的算法生成和结构将为实现提供很好的帮助。

iCal 是一个 Apple 应用程序，它遵循目前称为 Icalendar（以前的 Vcalendar 的继承者）的标准。我认为维基百科条目包含您所需的所有信息，并且格式简单易懂，但是，如果需要，请随时寻求更多指导！！！
