Get repeating events with icalendar

Question

I use the icalendar package to work with my downloaded google calendar .ics file

I want to support recurring meetings, they have this line in the .ics file: RRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;WKST=MO;UNTIL=20211224T225959Z;BYDAY=TH

I'm parsing all entries to my custom Entry-Class for further processing. I do this with for entry in cal.walk() and check if the entry is a VEVENT . Is there a way without manually parsing this RRULE line and create new entries for every repeated calendar entry?

For example: I have something every week for the next 12 weeks and I want a unique entry for every week.

I read the documentation, but it's pretty limited and browsing the source code did not help.

Answer 1

After some more research, I found this package. There doesn't seem to be an easy way with just icalendar .
