IMAP IDLE band plugin for Docketeer

docketeer-imap

IMAP IDLE band plugin for Docketeer. Monitors IMAP mailboxes for new messages using IDLE (push-style notifications) and produces Signal objects for the antenna system.

Install docketeer-imap alongside docketeer and the band is automatically available.

Configuration

All connection details come from a vault secret — no global environment variables needed. Each tuning specifies its own secret, so you can monitor multiple IMAP accounts independently.

The vault secret must be a JSON object:

{
  "host": "imap.gmail.com",
  "port": 993,
  "username": "[e-mail]",
  "password": "your-app-password"
}

For Gmail, use an App Password rather than your account password.

Signals

Each new email produces a signal with:

• signal_id — IMAP UID (used for catch-up on reconnect)
• topic — the mailbox name (e.g. INBOX)
• payload — {from, to, cc, subject, date, message_id, body, headers}
• summary — "From: sender — Subject: subject line"

The headers dict contains all message headers, so you can filter on anything:

{path: "payload.headers.X-GitHub-Event", op: "eq", value: "pull_request"}
{path: "payload.from", op: "contains", value: "github.com"}
{path: "payload.subject", op: "icontains", value: "deploy"}

Filtering

All filtering is client-side for v1. remote_filter_hints() returns an empty list.
