Description

It would be helpful to have an option to configure Thunderbird calendar accounts using accounts.calendars.accounts.<name>.* options.

Seems like currently, only vdirsyncer and khal are suppported?

I was able to configure the calendar specified as "myAccount" like this:

{
  home-manager.users.default.programs.thunderbird.settings =
    let
      calendarAccount = config.home-manager.users.default.accounts.calendar.accounts.myAccount;
      safeName = builtins.replaceStrings [ "." ] [ "-" ];
      calendarAccountSafeName = safeName calendarAccount.name;
    in
    {
      "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.cache.enabled" = true;
      "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.calendar-main-default" = calendarAccount.primary;
      "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.calendar-main-in-composite" = calendarAccount.primary;
      "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.name" = calendarAccount.name;
      "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.type" = "caldav";
      "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.uri" = calendarAccount.remote.url;
      "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.username" = calendarAccount.remote.userName;
    };
}

Looks like there's already a PR for this functionality.

With HTTP type calendar support:

    programs.thunderbird.settings =
      let
        safeName = builtins.replaceStrings [ "." ] [ "-" ];
        calendarRegistryEntry =
          calendarAccount:
          let
            calendarAccountSafeName = safeName calendarAccount.name;
          in
          {
            "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.cache.enabled" = true;
            "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.calendar-main-default" = calendarAccount.primary;
            "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.calendar-main-in-composite" = true;
            "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.name" = calendarAccount.name;
            "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.uri" = calendarAccount.remote.url;
            "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.username" = calendarAccount.remote.userName;
          }
          // {
            "caldav" = {
              "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.type" = "caldav";
            };
            "http" = {
              "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.type" = "ics";
              "calendar.registry.${calendarAccountSafeName}.readOnly" = true;
            };
          }
          ."${calendarAccount.remote.type}";
        contactsAccount = config.home-manager.users.default.accounts.contact.accounts."my.account";
        contactsAccountSafeName = safeName contactsAccount.name;
      in
      lib.attrsets.concatMapAttrs (
        _name: calendarRegistryEntry
      ) config.home-manager.users.default.accounts.calendar.accounts
      // {
        "ldap_2.servers.${contactsAccountSafeName}.carddav.url" = contactsAccount.remote.url;
        "ldap_2.servers.${contactsAccountSafeName}.carddav.username" = contactsAccount.remote.userName;
        "ldap_2.servers.${contactsAccountSafeName}.description" = contactsAccount.name;
        "ldap_2.servers.${contactsAccountSafeName}.dirType" = 102;
        "ldap_2.servers.${contactsAccountSafeName}.filename" = "abook-${contactsAccountSafeName}.sqlite";
      };

For multiple accounts, in case someone else needs this too:

{
    programs.thunderbird.settings =
      let
      cal = map (calendar: let
        safeName = builtins.replaceStrings [ "." ] [ "-" ] calendar.name;
        in {
          "calendar.registry.${safeName}.cache.enabled" = true;
          "calendar.registry.${safeName}.calendar-main-default" = calendar.primary;
          "calendar.registry.${safeName}.calendar-main-in-composite" = calendar.primary;
          "calendar.registry.${safeName}.name" = calendar.name;
          "calendar.registry.${safeName}.type" = "caldav";
          "calendar.registry.${safeName}.uri" = calendar.remote.url;
          "calendar.registry.${safeName}.username" = calendar.remote.userName;
        }) (builtins.attrValues config.accounts.calendar.accounts);
      in builtins.foldl' lib.recursiveUpdate { } cal;
}
