Provider for Google Calendar

These are the sources for the Provider for Google Calendar.

Development

The Provider for Google Calendar is written as a WebExtension, which means most of the code is very familiar to (vanilla) website development with a few additional APIs to call.

Additionally, it uses an experimental API to provide calendaring functionality which hopefully will become part of Thunderbird. Ideally you do not have to touch anything in the src/experiments/ or src/legacy/ directories. If you do need to touch src/experiments/calendar, then please send a pull request to https://github.com/thunderbird/webext-experiments in addition.

Tests are written with jest and use a custom mock for the WebExtensions API.

$ npm run test

You should also run the linters. This will run eslint and check your commit messages. Please format your messages according to conventional commits:

$ npm run lint

You can then run the build step to package the xpi in dist/gdata-provider.xpi

$ npm run build
