Add/delete/update collections of existing accounts

---

@breversa : i just realized that a couple of minutes ago and wanted to update my post. thanks anyway

Adding/removing collections is also on our list, it will come to DAVdroid too, but we’ve no schedule for it right now.

As a first step, wouldn’t it be the easiest to allow a re-evaluating of the collections? This code is already there. Basically this means to allow the 2nd step (Which collections shall be synchronized?) again after it has been setup.

@rfc2822 what do you think about my previous comment? wouldn’t it be fairly easy to implent this, since choosing the collections has been coded already? you only have to implement a call to that part and name it: change collections.
Or am I missing something here?

Bump?
Why there should be UI for this? Sync of new lists should work automatically without notifying user about anything. Other apps like tasks calendar should detect changes.

Can you suggest an algorithm for that?

Reload all lists/calendars from server and replace new with old ones. Doesn’t aCalDav do it this way?

@akero Does it? I don’t know. What about calendars that can’t be auto-detected?

Also, I don’t know whether doing a full auto-detection at every sync is a good idea, regarding battery and traffic usage, as it is quite a cumbersome process.

Maybe this could be on users request in account settings, the same activity that has checkboxes with list of accounts and menu “sync now” “remove”, adding new menu entry with “Complete sync” that would re-detect all lists and calendars would work?

@akero Yes, I think that this belongs to the settings.
