Event Read

Good to know before installing

Sends CALDAV_USER and CALDAV_PASSWORD as Basic auth to your CALDAV_URL, does not follow redirects, and starts no local program. Over plain http that password travels unencrypted. The tools are on for every surface, including gateways, and the plugin has no user list of its own: anyone you allow on your Hermes gateway reads the calendar with your password. Turn a surface off with hermes tools. A watch is a cron job you create yourself with hermes cron create. Each run is at least one model turn, there is no daily cap, and the job stays until you run hermes cron remove. Under plugins.isolation: host the watch cannot run and posts a notice saying so on every run. When the watch can run, it reports a problem on the first run, when the cause changes and again after 23 hours, or on every run when its data directory cannot be written. Each request gives up after 20 seconds without data, and a whole call has no time limit. The watch relies on private parts of Hermes, so an update can stop it. State lives in plugin-data/event-read. Not tested against a vendor-hosted calendar.
