Import Contacts from Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, MSN and AOL using PHP and cURL (Contacts Importer/Address Book Grabber PHP)
Currently working on:
OAuth and other delegated authentication API's (close to a release, expected 03/07/2010)
Will be also adding support for importing contacts from more webmail providers (ideas? let me know)
- Import Yahoo Addresses (PHP)
- Import Gmail Addresses (PHP)
- Import AOL Addresses (PHP)
- Import Hotmail Addresses (PHP)
Try the demo. Opens in a new window, so make sure your pop blocker doesn't block it.
All of the php contacts import scripts are designed for multi user websites and cookies are dealt with locally in the script itself. When a page is requested from yahoo, gmail and hotmail cookies are not stored in external files (the cookie jar and cookie file in cURL are not used). Instead cookies are stored in local variables and only exist during the execution of the script.
Available in .NET: (dot) .NET version of the import contacts scripts is now available. You can import address books from Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, MSN and AOL through your Visual Basic (dot) .NET or C# (c sharp) windows and web (ASP.NET) applications.
