[ANN] gmailer-0.0.2

[Park Heesob]

GMailer is a class for interface to Google's webmail service.

It can fetch mails, save attachements, get cotact lists, invite someone
or send message with file attachments. You can make GMail as an online
backup system or as a virtual filesystem with this library.

Now usage is very simple and compact like this:

GMailer.connect(name,pwd) do |g|
#fetch
g.fetchlabel=>"my_label") {|snapshot|
puts "Total # of conversations of my_label = " +
snapshot.box_total.to_s
}

#get contact
g.fetchcontact=>"freq").each do |item|
puts "Name: #{item['name']} Email: #{item['email']}"
end

#send
g.send(
:to => "(e-mail address removed)",
:subj => "Hello There!",
:body => "Hi...\n\nBlah blah blah~...",
:files => ["./test.txt"]
)
end

Hi!

Your library keeps getting cooler, the send() thing is especially
interesting...

I just wanted to add a note about
naming_conventions() vs. namingConventions(). You could add

def method_missing(sym, *args, &block)
parts = sym.to_s.split("_"); throw NameError(sym) if parts.size < 2
camel_case = parts[0]+(parts[1..-1].map(){|x| x.capitalize }).join()
send(camel_case, *args, &block)
end

to the Gmailer class, and omit all aliases - it will autoforward
messages named with _ to camelCased ones.
(not sure if it is the RubyWay, though : )

Very, very nice.

Do you have an example of reading an actual mail message?

Once I have a snapshot, how I get to individual mail?


Thanks,


James
