NAME
EWS::Calendar::Viewer - View Your MS Exchange Calendar as a Standalone Web App
VERSION
version 1.111982
SYNOPSIS
I recommend you use something like App::BundleDeps to deploy this under a fastcgi server environment. Configure the application like so:
privacy_level = limited
start_of_week = 1
<Model::EWSClient>
<args>
server = myserver.example.com
username = oliver
password = s3kr1t # or in EWS_PASS environment variable
</args>
</Model::EWSClient>
And then start the Catalyst application, perhaps using one of the bundled server scripts.
CONFIGURATION
privacy_level
This can be set to public
to show only your free/busy status, limited
to show the title of the event as well, or private
to show all details of the event in a tooltip.
start_of_week
Set this to a number from 0 to 6 representing Sunday through to Saturday respectively.
EWS Client
You'll need to set the server fully qualified domain name, and username for the calendar's account. The password can be set in the file using the password
option or via the environment variable EWS_PASS
.
If the Exchange server uses NTLM Negotiated Auth then also pass the following:
<Model::EWSClient>
<args>
use_negotiated_auth = 1
</args>
</Model::EWSClient>
Obviously, this setting is in addition to the other args
mentioned above. If you're unsure whether NTLM is required, try it without and if you get an Error: Unauthorised
response then you probably need the setting.
QUICK START SCRIPT
This application brings with it a lightweight web server environment, so you can get up and running quickly. First, install the module and its dependencies.
Then create a configuration file as in the "SYNOPSIS" section, above, and save it in your current directory as ews_calendar_viewer_local.conf
. Finally, run the ews_calendar_viewer_server.pl
script. It listens on port 3000 by default but you can change that (see --help
):
$> EWS_PASS=s3kr1t ews_calendar_viewer_server.pl
[info] EWS::Calendar::Viewer powered by Catalyst 5.80032
You can connect to your server at http://localhost:3000
