x2v
<entry-title>X2V</entry-title> X2V is an open source microformats XSLT implementation by Brian Suda that parses hCard or hCalendar events in (X)HTML and transforms them into the corresponding vCard (.vcf) or iCalendar (.ics) file respectively.
The latest beta and development versions of X2V can be tested at:
- http://suda.co.uk/projects/X2V/
- version 0.9.7 is the latest version, and it supports:
- hCard to vCard
- hCalendar to iCalendar
- value-class-pattern (nearly complete support of dates time separation, see value-class-date-time-tests)

hosted instances
If you want to just use X2V hosted on the web, the following sites are running it:
- H2VX is a transformer service powered by X2V
- http://h2vx.com/vcf/ & http://h2vx.com/ics/
- beta/dev version: http://dev.h2vx.com/vcf/ & http://dev.h2vx.com/ics/
- Status: Up.
- Brian Suda's development page has a running copy, too:
- http://suda.co.uk/projects/X2V/
- Status: transformation forms are non-functional currently due to a 2009-09 server move. No ETA on return.
install
If you wish to run your own X2V converter, either for your own content, or as a general web service, you should fork and customize the h2vx service, which contains all necessary X2V XSLT files, PHP code, as well as H2VX web UI HTML+CSS+JS.
- See h2vx for more.
moved
One inline test moved to: value-dt-test-YYYY-MM-DD--HH-MM, and expanded into a general test case for the value-class-pattern, one of several value-class-date-time-tests.
past instances
The following instances of X2V used to exist but are no longer supported:
- Technorati hosted a deployment of X2V for converting hCard contacts or hCalendar events at:
- http://feeds.technorati.com/contacts/
- http://feeds.technorati.com/events/
- Status: UI is down/404 since recent 2009-10 Technorati redesign - no ETA nor expected return. 2010-11: feeds.technorati.com conversion URLs themselves simple redirect to H2VX. 2012: feeds.technorati.com URLs 404.
If you were using Technorati URLs for conversions, you should switch to H2VX URLs.
