Interact with CalDav Server from asp.net MVC

Question

I am struggling to find any documentation on using a caldav server to store events in an asp.net mvc application.

I have had no problem so far getting a local server up and running using Radicale. I have also set up iCal events internally using Ical.Net. Retrieving and updating information stored on the server is the main concern.

I want to write something like:

var calDavServer = getServer("localhost:5232");
var calendar = calDavServer.getCalendar();

// Do operations on calendar...

calDavServer.updateCalendar(calendar);

Thank you for any help and/or advice.

I don't know much about ASP.NET and I think that C# support for CalDAV may be a bit weak, but after all CalDAV is just some HTTP+XML+iCalendar. You do not really need a 'library' for that.

Building a CalDAV client is a great introduction to the protocol.

It looks like you may be able to use iCal.NET to handle the iCalendar processing part.
