Export the Contacts as VCF file
In your code, you wrote one function but from where is this function called? And what is the meaning of get(View view)
function? This function is not being called so it can be removed.
I've edited my answer as per your requirements and tested it with 500 Contacts to save a single vCard file with 500 contacts in my sd card.

How to get all contacts and export to .vcf file?
Try out this. It's worked for me to create a .vcf file of all contact.
make sure all permission is given properly.

How can I create .vcf file for a single contact?
See the first line in the below code block. Here I am creating a new vFile everytime, this method will be called.So each contact will be saved in different files.
public void get(Cursor cursor)
{
vfile = "Contacts" + "_" + System.currentTimeMillis()+".vcf";
//cursor.moveToFirst();
String lookupKey = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndex(ContactsContract.Contacts.LOOKUP_KEY));
Uri uri = Uri.withAppendedPath(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_VCARD_URI, lookupKey);
AssetFileDescriptor fd;
try {
fd = this.getContentResolver().openAssetFileDescriptor(uri, "r");
// Your Complex Code and you used function without loop so how can you get all Contacts Vcard.??
/* FileInputStream fis = fd.createInputStream();
byte[] buf = new byte[(int) fd.getDeclaredLength()];
fis.read(buf);
String VCard = new String(buf);
String path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + File.separator + vfile;
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(path);
out.write(VCard.toString().getBytes());
Log.d("Vcard", VCard);*/
FileInputStream fis = fd.createInputStream();
byte[] buf = new byte[(int) fd.getDeclaredLength()];
fis.read(buf);
String vcardstring= new String(buf);
vCard.add(vcardstring);
String storage_path = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString() + File.separator + vfile;
FileOutputStream mFileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(storage_path, false);
mFileOutputStream.write(vcardstring.toString().getBytes());
} catch (Exception e1)
{
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
}

Export iPhone contacts to .vcf file programmatically
The general pieces you will need are:
- The Contacts framework for accessing the phone's contacts.
- The ContactsUI framework to use the built-in view controllers for accessing contacts.
- Use CNContactVCardSerialization.dataWithContacts to encode
CNContact
data to VCard format. - Write the data to a file using data.writeToURL.
- Upload the data to the server using NSURLSession.
Below is an example which answers the question of saving a contact to VCard format.
import Contacts
// Creating a mutable object to add to the contact
let contact = CNMutableContact()
contact.imageData = NSData() // The profile picture as a NSData object
contact.givenName = "John"
contact.familyName = "Appleseed"
let homeEmail = CNLabeledValue(label:CNLabelHome, value:"john@example.com")
let workEmail = CNLabeledValue(label:CNLabelWork, value:"j.appleseed@icloud.com")
contact.emailAddresses = [homeEmail, workEmail]
contact.phoneNumbers = [CNLabeledValue(
label:CNLabelPhoneNumberiPhone,
value:CNPhoneNumber(stringValue:"(408) 555-0126"))]
let homeAddress = CNMutablePostalAddress()
homeAddress.street = "1 Infinite Loop"
homeAddress.city = "Cupertino"
homeAddress.state = "CA"
homeAddress.postalCode = "95014"
contact.postalAddresses = [CNLabeledValue(label:CNLabelHome, value:homeAddress)]
let birthday = NSDateComponents()
birthday.day = 1
birthday.month = 4
birthday.year = 1988 // You can omit the year value for a yearless birthday
contact.birthday = birthday
let data = try CNContactVCardSerialization.dataWithContacts([contact])
let s = String(data: data, encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding)
if let directoryURL = NSFileManager.defaultManager().URLsForDirectory(.DocumentDirectory, inDomains: .UserDomainMask).first {
let fileURL = directoryURL.URLByAppendingPathComponent("john.appleseed").URLByAppendingPathExtension("vcf")
try data.writeToURL(fileURL, options: [.AtomicWrite])
}
