SYNOPSIS


use warnings;
use strict;
package MyAnnotatorDaemon;
use base Cyrus::Annotator::Daemon;

DESCRIPTION

This module encapsulates a message which is being processed by the annotator daemon.

METHODS

Cyrus::Annotator::Message has the following methods.
new(%args)
Takes the following args:

 # required
 * BODYSTRUCTURE => parsed bodystructure
 # optional (but you need to provide SOMETHING if your code uses any
 # of the accessors)
 * GUID => 40 character sha1
 * HEADER => Mail::Header object with headers pre-parsed
 * FILENAME => path to rfc822 file
 # totally optional (will be considered empty if not set)
 * FLAGS => array of already set flags
 * ANNOTATIONS => array of already set annotations
fh()
returns a read-only filehandle to the raw (rfc822) representation of the full message.
decode_part($Part, $Content)
Given some content, decode it from the part's content encoding and charset.
read_part_content($Part, $nbytes)
returns the first n bytes of the bodypart passed. This is a section of the bodystructure (hashref). If no part is passed, it's the raw message.

If no 'nbytes' is passed, read the entire part.

header()
returns a Mail::Header object containing all the headers of the message.
bodystructure()
returns a structure

is a structure closely based on the IMAP BODYSTRUCTURE, decoded into a hash, including recursively all MIME sections. In general, the following items are defined for all body structures:

  • MIME-Type
  • MIME-Subtype
  • Content-Type
  • Content-Description
  • Content-Dispositon
  • Content-Language

Body structures which have a MIME-Type of 'multipart' contain the following items:

  • MIME-Subparts

For body structures except those that have a MIME-Type of 'multipart', the following are defined:

  • Content-ID
  • Content-Description
  • Content-Transfer-Encoding
  • Content-MD5
  • Size
  • Lines
  • Offset
  • HeaderSize
guid()
returns the hex encoded (40 character) sha1 of the rfc822 representation.
has_flag($name)
set_flag($name)
clear_flag($name)
Check for the boolean value of a flag with $name, set the flag and remove the flag respectively.

Note that changes are not immediate. They will be applied by the annotator at the end.

For example:

  $message->set_flag("\\Flagged");
get_shared_annotation($entry)
get_private_annotation($entry)
set_shared_annotation($entry, $value)
set_private_annotation($entry, $value)
clear_shared_annotation($entry)
clear_private_annotation($entry)
Get, set and clear the value of an annotation, either shared or private. The ``get'' accessors return a string with the value. Clear is the same as set with $value of the empty string ('').

For example:

  $message->set_shared_annotation('/comment', 'Hello World');
get_changed()
returns two arrayrefs - [['flagname', 'bool']] and [['entry', 'type', 'value']], e.g.

[[``\\Flagged'', 1]], [['/comment', 'value.shared', 'Hello World']]
