Export Addressbook

[Henni]

Add option to export an addressbook with all its contacts.

[jancborchardt]

Yes! This is quite important regarding our principle of data portability.

The Backend is already providing this feature.
We need to trigger the download only in the web ui.

@DeepDiver1975 do you know how the backend is providing this? What is the url for the download?
The contacts are https://domain.ext/remote.php/dav/addressbooks/users/USER/ADDRESSBOOK/UID.vcf, but can't figure out for addressbooks :)

[DeepDiver1975]

the correct url is https://domain.ext/remote.php/dav/addressbooks/users/USER/ADDRESSBOOK?export - but we need to fix core first - owncloud/core#23893

[skjnldsv]

You're awesome! :)
👍

[DeepDiver1975]

addressbook export will be part of 9.0.2 - owncloud/core#23897

@skjnldsv we better have a version check to see if addressbook export is enabled or not

[skjnldsv]

Okay!
On it!

I need this too!!! I have applied owncloud/core#23897 by hand. Waiting for client side.

Oops, never mind. Clicked the wrong button and deleted the whole address book! :( Might I suggest perhaps a confirmation dialog before two days work of hand entering addresses is destroyed? Oops, too late it's gone. ;)

[skjnldsv]

It's planned too!
