!!! WARNING "Work in Progress"

This image is functional but may change significantly in a future release.

Intended for use with OpenCloud stack

This image can be used with OpenCloud to provide personal address books and calendars for each OpenCloud user.
The image relies on OpenCloud acting as an authenticating reverse proxy for radicale. Using it as a standalone radicale server is probably not a good idea.

Integrate with OpenCloud

To intergrate the radicale service with OpenCloud, you need to add a proxy configuration to OpenCloud. Create the file /path/to/container/opencloud/config/proxy.yaml with this content (or add the content below to your existing proxy.yaml configuration file): 

additional_policies:
  - name: default
    routes:
      - endpoint: /caldav/
        backend: http://radicale:5232
        remote_user_header: X-Remote-User
        skip_x_access_token: true
        additional_headers:
          - X-Script-Name: /caldav
      - endpoint: /.well-known/caldav
        backend: http://radicale:5232
        remote_user_header: X-Remote-User
        skip_x_access_token: true
        additional_headers:
          - X-Script-Name: /caldav
      - endpoint: /carddav/
        backend: http://radicale:5232
        remote_user_header: X-Remote-User
        skip_x_access_token: true
        additional_headers:
          - X-Script-Name: /carddav
      - endpoint: /.well-known/carddav
        backend: http://radicale:5232
        remote_user_header: X-Remote-User
        skip_x_access_token: true
        additional_headers:
          - X-Script-Name: /carddav
Add the radicale service to your existing compose file for the OpenCloud stack by merging this: 
services:
  opencloud:
    depends_on:
      - radicale
  radicale:
    image: ghcr.io/daemonless/opencloud-radicale:latest
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=UTC
    volumes:
      - /path/to/containers/opencloud-radicale:/config
    restart: unless-stopped
