Moving contacts from Google to Ubuntu Touch

 

Hi,

Today I have installed Ubuntu Touch on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus at first
time.
And I make simple bash script to prepare moving Google contacts to my phone.

I think it may help to someone before it Ubuntu touch will be finished and
will have convenient sync functions.

How to use:
1) Export Google Contacts to vCard format
2) run ./Google2Ubuntu_ContactsConverter.sh ~/Downloads/contacts.vcf
3) scp ./data.csv  phablet@192.168.1.168:~/data.csv
4) connect to phone via SSH and do:
phablet@localhost:~$ sudo mv data.csv /usr/share/demo-assets/contacts-data
phablet@localhost:~$ manage-address-books.py create


Please let me know if it is not appropriate theme for this message.

With best regards,
Taras.
