[Syncevolution-issues] [Bug 14805] New: relax need for template during configuration

https://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14805 Summary: relax need for template during configuration Classification: MeeGo Projects Product: SyncEvolution Version: unspecified Platform: All Architecture: --- Status: NEW Severity: critical Priority: Undecided Component: SyncEvolution AssignedTo: patrick.ohly(a)intel.com ReportedBy: patrick.ohly(a)intel.com QAContact: jingke.zhang(a)intel.com CC: syncevolution-bugs(a)meego.bugs, syncevolution-default-bugs(a)meego.bugs Estimated Hours: 0.0 Currently SyncEvolution insists on having a template when creating a config from scratch. This was meant to address typos like "--configure sheduleworld". But when the command line contains enough information, no template is needed. The same logic was applied to configuring a source: if a source is not among those defined by the template, configuring it is rejected as a typo. I suggest to add "--template none" as a special case. If that argument is given, then SyncEvolution shall suppress the errors and create a config based on the command line properties (whatever those are). If a source is among those which has command line properties, it shall also be accepted. If the sync properties contain the obligatory properties, the "need template" error shall also be skipped. Obligatory at this time: only "syncURL". Examples: --configure foobar => error "need template" --configure --template none foobar => empty "foobar" peer config, no sources configured --configure ical20/backend=calendar foobar => "foobar" peer config with source "ical20" --configure syncURL=local://@foo bar => "foo" peer config, no sources configured -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.meego.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching someone on the CC list of the bug.
