A simple, fully translatable admin interface and frontend for sabre/dav
based on Symfony 5 and Bootstrap 4, largely inspired by Baïkal.
PHP > 7.3.0 (with pdo_mysql
and intl
extensions), MySQL (or MariaDB).
-
Clone this repository
-
Retrieve the dependencies:
composer install
-
At least put the correct credentials to your database in your
.env.local
file so you can easily create your database. -
Create the database:
bin/console doctrine:schema:create
Davis can be used with a pre-existing MySQL database (for instance, one previously managed by Baïkal). The only missing table would be the migrations
table, that you can recreate automatically when running the migrations.
The migrations are not exactly equivalent to those of Baïkal, and allow for a bit more room in columns.
Create your own .env.local
file to change the necessary variables, if you plan on using symfony/dotenv
.
If your installation is behind a web server like Apache or Nginx, you can setup the env vars directly in your Apache or Nginx configuration (see below). Skip this part in this case.
a. The database url (you should already have it configured since you created the database previously)
DATABASE_URL=mysql://db_user:db_pass@host:3306/db_name
b. The admin password for the backend
ADMIN_LOGIN=admin
ADMIN_PASSWORD=test
c. The auth Realm and method for HTTP auth
AUTH_REALM=SabreDAV
AUTH_METHOD=Digest # can be "Basic", "Digest" or "IMAP"
In case you use the
IMAP
auth type, you must specify the auth url (the "mailbox" url) inIMAP_AUTH_URL
. See https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imap-open.php for more details.
d. The global flags to enable CalDAV, CardDAV and WebDAV
CALDAV_ENABLED=true
CARDDAV_ENABLED=true
WEBDAV_ENABLED=false
e. The email address that your invites are going to be sent from
f. The paths for the WebDAV installation
I recommend that you use absolute directories so you know exactly where your files reside.
TMP_DIR='/tmp'
PUBLIC_DIR='/public'
If you're migrating from Baïkal, then you will likely want to do the following :
-
Get a backup of your data (without the
CREATE
statements, but with completeINSERT
statements):mysqldump -u root -p --no-create-info --complete-insert baikal > baikal_to_davis.sql # baikal is the actual name of your database
-
Create a new database for Davis (let's name it
davis
) and create the schema :bin/console doctrine:schema:create
-
Reimport the data back:
mysql -uroot -p davis < baikal_to_davis.sql
A simple status page is available on the root /
of the server.
The administration interface is available at /dashboard
. You need to login to use it (See ADMIN_LOGIN
and ADMIN_PASSWORD
env vars).
The main endpoint for CalDAV, WebDAV or CardDAV is at /dav
.

More examples and information here.
Web-based protocols like CalDAV and CardDAV can be found using a discovery service. Some clients require that you implement a path prefix to point to the correct location for your service. See here for more info.
If you use Apache as your webserver, you can enable the redirections with:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^\.well-known/carddav /dav/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^\.well-known/caldav /dav/ [R=301,L]
Make sure that mod_rewrite
is enabled on your installation beforehand.
If you use Nginx, you can add this to your configuration:
location / {
rewrite ^/.well-known/carddav /dav/ redirect;
rewrite ^/.well-known/caldav /dav/ redirect;
}
A Dockerfile
is available for you to compile the container.
We use ssmtp
as a delivery service for a configured mailhost instead of using local delivery (that should work out of the box). You can ignore this or remove it from the Dockerfile if you want.
A docker-compose.yml
file is also included as a minimal example setup with a MariaDB database and Nginx as a reverse proxy.
You can start the containers with :
cd docker && docker-compose up -d
⚠ Do not forget to create the database the first time you run the container :
docker exec -it davis bash -c "APP_ENV=prod bin/console doctrine:schema:create --no-interaction"
Then, head up to http://<YOUR_DOCKER_IP>
to see the status display :
Note that there is no user, no principals, etc created by default.
You can spin off a local PHP webserver with:
php -S localhost:8000 -t public
If you change or add translations, you need to update the messages
XLIFF file with:
bin/console translation:update en --force --domain=messages+intl-icu
