Access the Address Book database from the shell
Do you have any plans to add the ability to modify the AB database?
Re: Access the Address Book database from the shell
I imagine someone will add the ability to add, modify, and delete records in contacts. I'm curious to see what some people come up with. I've got a few ideas myself. I don't want to see the utility blow up with a ton of options to facilitate that. It should be simple and not require a lot of tedious options. Imagine you want to synchronize your contacts from one machine to another. Maybe you could do something like this:
So yes, I probably will add some ability to write to contacts in the future, but I'm not going to invest a lot of time in it right now. And I would encourage anyone out there who's really interested in it to give it a hack. Again, I'm curious to see what people come up with.

Great, I look forward to it. I've already created an AppleScript that allows me to use contacts for quick searches. This is so much better than keeping Address Book running all of the time. Thanks! |
