Access extra dates in contacts
-
In the ios contacts, you can add extra dates, for things like anniveraries. I'd like to use them to add birthdays of children, since they really don't need their own contact entry. The problem is that these dates don't end up in the birthday calendar, so I thought I'd use pythonista to construct such a calendar. Now, maybe I overlooked it, but I couldn't find a way to get to those extra dates, did I miss something?
If it's not possible to access them, I'll put the dates in the notes field and parse them, but that wouldn't be as elegant.

seems like it is not possible. there are a few extra fields in
vcard
, but dates don't seem to be included -
Seems like the address is the only attr that has a 'insert' method
import contacts my_contacts = contacts.get_all_people() print dir(my_contacts[0].address)
