Installation

pip install dobyemail

Usage Examples

Using the Service class

from dobyemail import Service, config

service = Service(
    smtp_server=config.smtp_server,
    smtp_port=config.smtp_port,
    smtp_use_tls=config.smtp_use_tls,
    imap_server=config.imap_server,
    imap_port=config.imap_port,
    imap_use_ssl=config.imap_use_ssl,
    username=config.username,
    password=config.password
)

# Send an email
service.send_email("[e-mail]", "Test Subject", "This is a test email.")

# Read emails
emails = service.read_emails(limit=5)
for email in emails:
    print(f"From: {email['from']}, Subject: {email['subject']}")

Using the Sender class directly

from dobyemail import Sender

sender = Sender(
    smtp_server="smtp.example.com",
    smtp_port=587,
    use_tls=True,
    username="your_username",
    password="your_password"
)

# Send a simple email
sender.send_email("[e-mail]", "Hello", "This is a test email")

# Send an email with attachment
sender.send_email(
    "[e-mail]",
    "Email with Attachment",
    "Please find the attached document.",
    attachments=["path/to/document.pdf"]
)

Using the Reader class directly

from dobyemail import Reader

reader = Reader(
    imap_server="imap.example.com",
    imap_port=993,
    use_ssl=True,
    username="your_username",
    password="your_password"
)

# Read the latest 10 emails
emails = reader.read_emails(limit=10)
for email in emails:
    print(f"Subject: {email['subject']}, From: {email['from']}")

# Search for emails with a specific subject
search_results = reader.search_emails("subject", "Important Meeting")
for email in search_results:
    print(f"Found email: {email['subject']}")

Using the Transfer class

from dobyemail import Transfer, Reader, Sender

source_reader = Reader(
    imap_server="source_imap.example.com",
    imap_port=993,
    use_ssl=True,
    username="source_username",
    password="source_password"
)

destination_sender = Sender(
    smtp_server="dest_smtp.example.com",
    smtp_port=587,
    use_tls=True,
    username="dest_username",
    password="dest_password"
)

transfer = Transfer(source_reader, destination_sender)

# Transfer the latest 5 emails
transferred_emails = transfer.transfer_emails(limit=5)
print(f"Transferred {len(transferred_emails)} emails")

Utility Functions

from dobyemail import parse_date, check_ports, is_valid_email, get_email_ports

# Parse a date string
print(parse_date("2023-05-15"))  # Output: "15-May-2023"

# Check if ports are open
print(check_ports("example.com", [80, 443]))

# Validate an email address
print(is_valid_email("[e-mail]"))  # Output: True

# Get standard email ports
print(get_email_ports())

Running Tests

To run the unit tests, use the following command from the project root directory:

python -m unittest discover tests

Configuration

The email_ports.json file is used for configuring email ports. It is loaded automatically by the Config class in config.py. You can modify this file to add or update email port configurations.
