Email clients are great! But I need to access my contacts’ data as well for it to be useful. Please integrate CardDAV support. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6352 Reproducible: Always
Yup, another address book backend talking to a remote CardDAV server would be nice. We are happy to accept contributions.
What about interfacing it with khard, like mutt can do ? https://github.com/scheibler/khard#mutt Allow queries through an external program could offer some flexibility maybe !?
Yup, that's one possibility, too. I'll be happy to review patches which make it possible to call out to external programs for address book management; check src/Plugins/AddressbookPlugin.h for the required API.

Git commit c3a317ac1e085535034ef862d9e9dbf4551cfb99 by Roland Pallai. Committed on 20/11/2017 at 21:48. Pushed by gerrit into branch 'master'. Add AkonadiAddressbook plugin Akonadi is centralized database to store, index and retrieve the user's contacts and more since KDE SC 4.4. This plugin adds support for completion and pretty names. Once upon a time there was an Akonadi plugin but has been removed due to KDE4/Qt4 dependencies [1]. This plugin is pure KF5 port.
