Anarcho-Tech NYC: Radicale

An Ansible role for installing a Radicale server. Notably, this role has been tested with Raspbian on Raspberry Pi hardware. This role's purpose is to make it simple to install a CalDAV and CardDAV server.

Configuring Radicale

To configure your Radicale server instance, use the radicale_config dictionary. The keys in this dictionary map nearly one-to-one to the configuration directives described in Radicale's Configuration documentation page. Configuration directive groups are their own dictionaries, and directives that can accept more than one value are specified as a list.

Some examples may prove helpful:

1. Simple Radicale server with default for all values:

   radicale_config:

2. Simple Radicale server bound to the local host only and listening on the alternative HTTP port:

   radicale_config:
     server:
       hosts:
         - addr: 127.0.0.1
           port: 8080

See the comments in the defaults/main.yaml file for additional details.

Adding or removing Radicale user accounts

The radicale_users variable is a list containing dictionaries for each user account. Each user account dictionary in the list can have the following keys:

• name: The name of the user account. This key is required.
• password: The password for this user account. It is recommended to encrypt this value with Ansible Vault. If this is omitted, the bcrypt_hash key is required.
• bcrypt_hash: Instead of supplying a password, you can supply a bcrypt hash of the password in passlib format. If this is omitted, the password key is required.
• state: Whether the user should exist (present) or not (absent). This key is optional.
