Hi,
I’m looking for a Hook if contacts are updated,
if there are no such Hooks, what is the best way to read inforamtion out of contacts in an app.
Concretely I need it for the maps app. Contacts with a geo tag are no problem. The Problem is with vCard which only have an address. I need to lookup the geo information for the address, and this is not possible on demand. So I have to do it in advanced an cache the results. It would only be needed once per vCard. So going though all contacts with a cronjob seems realy unefficent.
FYI, the issue tracker of the contacts app already contains such a feature request, but such functions haven’t yet been implemented. I think @skjnldsv should be able to answer your question and provide some inside on the contact handling.
@j-ed thanks for that information. Haven’t looked there.
So I will work with a temporal workarround for now. And do the clean implementation as soon https://github.com/nextcloud/contacts/issues/211 is implemented.
