See #30

This is my first time writing Go code, so I apologise in advance for any beginner mistakes I made in this 😃.

Test failure seems unrelated.

serviceUrl := u.String()

// Check if the resulting URL hosts a service
req, err := http.NewRequest(http.MethodOptions, serviceUrl, nil)

RFC 6764 section 6 mandates that a PROPFIND request should be made with the username/password set.

Alps has a different requirement: it needs to sanity check the URLs on startup (without any username/password).

To follow the RFC, we could:

  • Take an webdav.HTTPClient to handle auth
  • Change OPTIONS to a PROPFIND request with a DAV:current-user-principal prop
  • Return the DAV:current-user-principal prop

To accomodate for Alps, we could have an intermediate DiscoverContextURL function that follows the RFC up to and not including the PROPFIND request.

Sorry about the delay on this, I'll try to get the remaining change sorted this weekend.

7e07625 adds discovery for CalDAV. What's still missing is the TXT DNS record stuff.
