gmailgem / gmail Goto Github PK

Please excuse me if there's an obvious answer to this as i'm new to rails and github, but I can't seem to find the save_attachments_to method...

Also it seems that the "message" method is private so the attachments saving function isn't implemented in the most recent version of this - correct?

Thanks so much for putting this together and for your help.

Hello, I have this problem popping up when I try to get message body.
I was able to track it down to message method in message.rb
def message
@message ||= Mail.new(@gmail.mailbox(@mailbox.name) {
@gmail.conn.uid_fetch(uid, "RFC822")[0].attr["RFC822"] # RFC822
})
end

It looks like Mail.new is throwing this error.
fetch returns message body string and Mail.new throws the error.
Any ideas?

Btw. I'm running this on rails 2.3.10, I have these gems installed

mail (2.3.0, 2.2.5)
mime (0.1)
mime-types (1.16)

Hi,

I needed this modification to get sending messages to work with XOAuth. I branched it off the v0.4.0 tag.

Hi there,

Loving the gem, but found some runaway memory usage when getting attachments to an email...the problem may actually be with the Mail gem itself, but figured I start here. I've got a gist below with the simplest code I could write that shows the problem.

I output memory usage after each step (getting unread emails from the inbox, looping through each found email, calling attachments on the email:

START 17.32 MB
  Gmail initialized 17.67 MB
  retrieve inbox 20.43 MB
    email 0: about to read 20.44 MB
    message read 46.55 MB
END 46.55 MB

As I loop though those emails and retrieve the attachments I never get the memory back. :( Here's the script that I'm using: https://gist.github.com/1071169 You'll need to be running Ruby 1.8.7 to use memprof and see all the objects that Ruby is still hanging onto at the end of the script (and it's a LOT, thousands and thousands).

I've tried saving the attachments to disk thinking maybe that'll release the memory, but no luck. Any ideas?

Thanks for any help!
Rob

Hi,

I'm using gmail gem to send emails and I need track these emails. How can I do this?

I'm trying search the email with the message_id, but it bring all emails from my inbox and I want just the responses of a specific email.

Here is my actual code:

    #save email with the message_id
    ...
    mail = gmail.deliver(email)
    Email.create(:message_id => mail.message_id, :from => user.email,
      :to => annotation.to, :body => annotation.content, :title => annotation.title,
      :annotation => annotation, :user => user)

    #search the mails with message_id
    messages = gmail.inbox.mails(:message_id => email.message_id)

Hello there,

Since the gmail_xoauth has support for 2 legged authentication I believe the gmail gem should support it too :)

I couldn't think of way to write actual integration tests but I added some mocked ones and have already tested it on live production code and it seems to be working ok.

Review it and let me know if you have any objections / ideas / etc...

gmail has its own special label names such as

"[Gmail]/All Mail",
"[Gmail]/Drafts",
"[Gmail]/Important",
"[Gmail]/Sent Mail",
"[Gmail]/Spam",
"[Gmail]/Starred",
"[Gmail]/Trash"

but these are translated in other language if the gmail language setting is not English.

For an instance, if I set it to Japanese, the labels are listed as below.
*the labels you create will not be affected under in any language setting

"[Gmail]/すべてのメール",
"[Gmail]/ゴミ箱",
"[Gmail]/スター付き",
"[Gmail]/下書き",
"[Gmail]/迷惑メール",
"[Gmail]/送信済みメール",
"[Gmail]/重要"

I am currently using gmail in English to avoid this problem, but could there be a way to add a method to configure this language setting?

• In Gmail::Client::Base#mailbox there was a test in one place to make sure the mailbox wasn't switched to the same one it's already on, but that wasn't happening for the block version. I modified switch_to_mailbox so the test is done there.
• I then had a problem with threading and fixed it by adding the line described here: https://github.com/saranyan/gmail/commit/1bb109390bb47c881e7f8c34b6f3dc4ec6927da2
• Then, I couldn't build the gem with 1.9, so I had to require psych in the Rakefile and add some quotes to gemspec.yml

sorry about the whitespace changes in base.rb. the only actual changes are around lines 20, 157, and 199.

Hi,

I have implemented the imap fetch command for range based navigation of the gmail inbox, additionally I have also implemented the read? and starred? flags on the message class.

You might want to be a bit selective about pulling in my changes because I have also for example removed the mailbox locking login for no other reason that it made my application a bit harder to code.

Unfortunately I have not been able to write proper tests because I am assuming that your tests run against a specific mailbox with specific data, as a lot of tests were failing using a clean clone of your repository.

I hope there is something useful in my commits and apologies if I have saddled you up with to much merge hastle :-)

Regards,

Waseem

Am i missing some simple way of knowing which emails are starred so i can display accordingly.

So I retrieved those with label "[GMAIL]/Starred" and put their UID's in an array, so i could match UIDs with those in INBOX. However, the same email has a different UID in Starred Label and INBOX label !!!

(I starred the email on the web gmail interface, so i know its the same email).

I am sorry if i am spamming you with these queries since they are not relating to your gem. Any thoughts/tips would be welcome.

Just tested email.delete! and it flags as deleted, which Gmail seems to use to archive (All Mail) instead of delete (Trash).

I tried to work around this by adding the '[Gmail]/Trash" label and then flagging as deleted, but that seems to put it in the trash and leave it in the inbox. Very strange.

Because the last time the change was so big, some small fix cannot be applied. So I make this branch just for it.

1. For Ruby 1.9.2, Net::IMAP::NoResponseError#new take a Net::IMAP::TaggedResponse object as argument, the error description will be put in a Net::IMAP::ResponseText. A NoMethodError would be raised for the old code.
2. For me conn.list('[Gmail]/', '%') will return nil, then an error would be raised since we cannot + nil.

Is there some routine in gmail gem or mail gem that does the unpacking?
Thanks a lot.

From @jnarowski on October 19, 2011 19:50

Do you ever plan to add support for searching by message_id? This is not the email thread id, but the the Gmail frontend message id of the message (this is a 64-bit hexadecimal value, different from the RFC 822 Message-ID).

This is provided to Google Apps and contextual gadgets, and the message can be retrieved using this ID as follows:
http://code.google.com/apis/gmail/imap/#x-gm-msgid

I am not sure if the Ruby IMAP library supports it or what would be necessary to add it, but if this could be added that would be awesome.

Hi,

the first one is easy: add_label was not doing what the name suggested.

The second one is tough and needs a good review: Labels were outputted utf-7 to the user which is not a good idea, IMHO. I added the standard conversion methods at all places that I saw fitting - hopefully I didn't miss any. So: please review carefully.

I'm just seeing that two older commits are also in this pull request, I hope you don't mind :)

Hi,

thanks for this Gem. It was a bit hard to find because you didn't fork from dcparker/ruby-gmail so it didn't appear in the Github Network view.
It's good to see someone is carrying this project on, because the other seems to be orphaned and has a lot of bugs which made me try this one.

And I found one here, too:
In https://github.com/nu7hatch/gmail/blob/master/lib/gmail/mailbox.rb#L35 you're getting the entries from MAILBOX_ALIASES and use them directly which makes the a second, less constrained search fail. The line should read:

    search = MAILBOX_ALIASES[args.shift].dup

You can confirm this with these lines:

puts gmail.mailbox("[Gmail]/Spam").emails.count
puts gmail.mailbox("[Gmail]/Spam").emails(:to => "*a*").count
puts gmail.mailbox("[Gmail]/Spam").emails.count
puts Gmail::Mailbox::MAILBOX_ALIASES.inspect

Assuming not all emails in the Spam folder contain an "a" in the recipient, the second number should be smaller and the third number should be equal to the first one again, which is not the case currently. You can also check the MAILBOX_ALIASES after a search which constrains something.

Thanks for your work!
Cheers,
Benjamin

I am writing an ncurses client using gmail gem. Some issues:

1. When i fetch :all or :unread, the unread status in gmail is changed to read. How to avoid this, since i have only displayed subject to user.

After searching I found that fetching ENVELOPE lets me see headers without resetting UNREAD status. Also, this is fast, compared to normal method. But gmail gem does not support ENVELOPE.

imap.fetch(message_id, "ENVELOPE")[0].attr["ENVELOPE"] 

I would like fetch body only when user clicks on mail, and only then should mail be changed to READ on gmail.

Look forward to your comments.

1. If i retrieve :all, is there any flag to check for UNREAD. Currently i have to retrieve them in 2 loops, so i can show user which are UNSEEN.

Sorry, at first I just want to fix some bugs but then I think the design is somehow not very nice. And it turns out that I have done some drastic changes. You don't have to pull all my commits, I just hope you could take a look. Here are what I've done:

1. AuthorizationError should be StandardError or you have to change the raise statements (Net::IMAP::NoResponseError has special constructor which includes a Net::IMAP::Response).
2. Client is now a class. And I made a Connection class to replace the old Client::* things.
3. No more Labels class. I made a MailboxController, which controls mailboxes (labels are mailboxes).
4. Mailbox has some new functions.
5. The system standard mailboxes can be mapped now. It should be able to map even in non-english Gmail. I've just added support for english and german (which i currently use) till now.

It would be difficult to merge all my commits. I have very little experiences in SE so I messed up :">

I have one thread checking for count of unread emails in INBOX, another one is calling emails for all emails. I think the data is getting mixed.

The situation is that i use a thread to check unread counts for all labels (so that application is not held up). In the meantime, user fetches mails for Inbox. It appears that 2 concurrent calls for messages of one label, cause data inconsistency.

Perhaps this is an application issue, but i thought i would just point it out to you.

This error occurs randomly while using the lib.

I'm trying to get my emails using the Gmail gem (source) with the next call:

    @gmail = Gmail.connect(account, credentials)
  end

  def get_attachments received_at, options

@gmail is a valid instance of Gmail class, and this call raises sometimes the next error:

Unknown command v2if4084974eef.9

The command (v2if4084974eef.9) changes in every call I make.
