Methods (to be applied on instances)

add_recurrence (scripted, public)
```
 <instance of xo::ical::VCALITEM> add_recurrence \
    [ -cal_item_id cal_item_id ]
```
Call calendar::item::add_recurrence with the options calculated by "parse RRULE"

Switches:

-cal_item_id
(optional)

Partial Call Graph (max 5 caller/called nodes):

Testcases:
No testcase defined.
```
if { [info exists :recurrence_options] } {
  calendar::item::add_recurrence  -cal_item_id $cal_item_id  {*}${:recurrence_options}
}
```
as_ical (scripted, public)
```
 <instance of xo::ical::VCALITEM> as_ical
```
Output a VCALITEM (VTODO or VEVENT) "object" in ical notation.

Partial Call Graph (max 5 caller/called nodes):

Testcases:
No testcase defined.
```
set item_type [namespace tail [:info class]]
append t "BEGIN:$item_type\r\n"  [:ical_body]  "END:$item_type\r\n"
return $t
```

edit_recurrence (scripted, public)

 <instance of xo::ical::VCALITEM> edit_recurrence \
    [ -cal_item_id cal_item_id ] [ -recurrence_id recurrence_id ]

We might or might not have a recurrence on the old entry. In case we have one, the old one might have started earlier, so we try to terminate it.

Switches:

-cal_item_id
(optional)
-recurrence_id
(optional)

Partial Call Graph (max 5 caller/called nodes):

Testcases:
No testcase defined.

get (scripted, public)
```
 <instance of xo::ical::VCALITEM> get property [ default ]
```
Return a certain property of an ical items. In case, the item has no such property, return the default value.

Parameters:
property
default (optional)

Partial Call Graph (max 5 caller/called nodes):

Testcases:
No testcase defined.

ical_body (scripted, public)

 <instance of xo::ical::VCALITEM> ical_body

The method ical_body returns the ical-formatted content of the variables. All variables of VEVENTs and VTODOs are listed below, since the names are distinct, and no methods are used. So far there is no handling for the repetition fields (which might occur more than once). An option would be to handle these as lists. All date/time stamps are provided either by the ANSI date (from postgres) or by a date which can be processed via clock scan

Testcases:
No testcase defined.

parse RRULE (scripted, public)

 <instance of xo::ical::VCALITEM> parse RRULE recurrule
