Gmail filters matched only on from: queries are not correctly represented by the program.

Given a filter with only a from criteria

I would expect a corresponding entry in the file produced by --export; however, only empty filter sets are produced:

[[Filter]]
Query = ""
Archive = false
Read = false
Delete = false
ToMe = false
ArchiveUnlessToMe = false
Label = ""
ForwardTo = ""

I suspect this is an issue because other criteria do generate values in the export file, such as compound criteria. example:

[[Filter]]
Query = "from:(\"wafflebot[bot]\") OR subject:(Apply fixes from StyleCI)"
Archive = false
Read = false
Delete = false
ToMe = false
ArchiveUnlessToMe = false
Label = "P1/00A2 - Github/Auto"
ForwardTo = ""

Hi folks,

I'm unable to generate creds that don't generate an error 403(insufficient permissions) due to the needed modification scope on the application. Anyone found a way around this? thanks!

By default, gmailfilters doesn't work on Windows, neither when using go get, nor with the Windows release builds.

The culprit is the save location of the authentication token file. The default is set to /tmp/token.json.

It might be better if this is constructed using the https://golang.org/pkg/os/#TempDir method to get a system independent temp folder.

Hi,

It will be more convenient if the labels can be colored.

It noticed that we are missing Negated Query support. I added the negated support in my PR #2. Do you feel I should cherry pick the commit or is there a better way to handle this?

Enumerate "hits" on each filter for specified time-ranges.

Export these filter-hit-time ranges to a portable spreadsheet so that filters can be evaluated for usefulness / adjusted / removed accordingly.

How can I solve this problem?

When exporting filters, it appears that IMPORTANT is treated as one of the special label IDs, alongside INBOX, UNREAD, and TRASH.

The gmail filter UI appears to support IMPORTANT in two ways:

1. Always mark the email as important (add label)
2. Never mark the email as important (remove label)

We should therefore support the following:

1. AlwaysMarkImportant
2. NeverMarkImportant

Hi! As we discussed on Twitter, I've been trying to use this tool but no matter what combination of things I click on the console for creating the credentials, I always end up with the following message:

parsing client secret file to config failed: oauth2/google: no credentials found

After enabling the Gmail API from the console, I click on Create Credentials and I'm being present with a form. First question is from where am I going to use the API:

Next question is whether I want to give access to User data or Application data, so I've chosen the latter:

Then I proceed to click on What credentials do I need? and I'm presented with the following:

Here is where it gets tricky, as none of the roles seem to match the Gmail labels notion that I was expecting. I've chosen different things but when the JSON file is downloaded and I pass it to gmailfilters it always fails when parsing the file.

Thank you very much for your time and for all the great tools you've written so far!

Hi! Thanks for this great piece of software ❤️

I wanted to know what are all the configs available for each filter. From the README I can see for example query, archiveUnlessToMe, label, queryOr, etc.

Although, I noticed that I want something like markAsImportant = false or similar because when the email matches one of my filters and it has archive = true GMail puts it on the Inbox anyway because their smart algorithm marks it as important :(

Is there an option for this case? Thanks!

Thanks for creating this automation script, @jessfraz!

I can't use this awesome script because I have hundreds of filters created in the UI. I wish there could be a downloader for these settings that downloads/converts the existing filters to a file.

Feature request.
