libimagcontacts

The contact library basically only creates references to the actual vcard files, though it also can parse (via the vobject crate) the information and return it from an entry directly.

The architecture of indirections is as follows:


+--------------------------------+
|                                |
|     Store, as ContactStore     |
|                                |
+----------------+---------------+
                 |
                 | Provides access to
                 |
+----------------v---------------+
|                                |
|   (FileLock)Entry as Contact   |
|                                |
|      which is actually a:      |
|                                |
|     (FileLock)Entry as Ref     |
|                                |
+----------------+---------------+
                 |
                 | refers to
                 |
+----------------v---------------+
|                                |
|   vcard file (outside store)   |
|                                |
+----------------+---------------+
                 |
                 | contains
                 |
+----------------v---------------+
|                                |
|            vcard data          |
|                                |
+--------------------------------+
