Support multiple type declaration

[skjnldsv]

Looking at the rfc: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6350#section-6.4.1

 The default type is "voice".  These type parameter values can be
 specified as a parameter list (e.g., TYPE=text;TYPE=voice) or as a
 value list (e.g., TYPE="text,voice").  The default can be
 overridden to another set of values by specifying one or more
 alternate values.  For example, the default TYPE of "voice" can be
 reset to a VOICE and FAX telephone number by the value list
 TYPE="voice,fax".

• Workaround to migrate the parameter list to a value list
• Waitning for vCard: Parse multiple types kewisch/ical.js#343 Adds support for multiple TYPE parameters kewisch/ical.js#388

Hello, I understand this issue is related to the way iOS handles wrongly vCard types when set as a value list (e.g. doesn't handle the syntax like TYPE="VOICE,CELL" as defined by the standard but accepts TYPE=VOICE,CELL instead). However, is there any workaround for Nextcloud × iOS users who would accept to have the Nextcloud vcf file not formatted properly (i.e. with types as a value list but without quotes)? I tried to manually import, remove quotes and export but this doesn't work.
Thanks a lot.

I don't think this is fixed. I'm running Contacts 3.3.0 on Nextcloud 18.0.4 and this is what I see with my Nextcloud contacts:

Note how the home number still shows "HOME instead of home.

I'm in the same boat as apastuszak. Tried editing an existing contact & even creating a new one, but still seeing the same issue. I can run through & document all the steps again, but still has not been working for me.

Nextcloud 18.0.3
Contacts 3.3.0

[apastuszak]

Here is what I am seeing. If I create a new contact in Nextcloud and then iOS syncs it, and I export it as vcf, I see this line:

TEL;TYPE="HOME,VOICE":(xxx) xxx-xxxx

And the iPhone displays "HOME

If I then edit the contact and change the phone type to home on the iPhone, the vcf export from Nextcloud shows this:

TEL;type=HOME;type=VOICE;type=pref:(xxx) xxx-xxxx

Either vcf format displays correctly in Nextcloud.

Yep, the issue is the quote now.
Multiple types are different.

Also, this is not released as far as I recall

How is this progressing? I really cant migrate away from iCloud contacts until this works :-)

Good job everybody - sadly i can’t contribute with :[

[F3ELING1337]

Yes I would also like to know how the status of this is? Currently on NC 20.0.2 and iOS 14.2:
Contacts on iOS synced with NC still show things like "CELL or "HOME instead of 'valid' values.
Thanks for all your help to the developers!

Any update on this? I see the issue is closed but it's still not resolved.

[veritas06]

Can we get this re-opened since the issue is not resolved?

[tamburra]

This has been an issue for a long time and still is with all current releases as of Feb 5, 2021. Would love for this to get reopened and possibly resolved.
