eml_parser serves as a python module for parsing eml files and returning various information found in the e-mail as well as computed information.
Extracted and generated information include but are not limited to:
attachments - hashes - names
from, to, cc
received servers path
subject
list of URLs parsed from the text content of the mail (including HTML body/attachments)
Please feel free to send me your comments / pull requests.
Install the latest version using pip:
pip install eml-parserNote for OSX users:
Make sure to install libmagic, else eml_parser will not work.
Warning:
This release is only compatible with Python3. The last release to be compatible with Python2 is v1.2. If you do require Python2 support, please download that version. You are strongly encouraged though to use Python3 as there are many parsing improvements and much better RFC support.
Example on how to use:
import eml_parser
def json_serial(obj):
if isinstance(obj, datetime.datetime):
serial = obj.isoformat()
return serial
with open('sample.eml', 'rb') as fhdl:
raw_email = fhdl.read()
parsed_eml = eml_parser.eml_parser.decode_email_b(raw_email)
print(json.dumps(parsed_eml, default=json_serial))Which gives for a minimalistic EML file something like this:
{
"body": [
{
"content_header": {
"content-language": [
"en-US"
]
},
"hash": "6c9f343bdb040e764843325fc5673b0f43a021bac9064075d285190d6509222d"
