Detailed Documentation

Introduction

We need manager role for this test:

>>> self.setRoles(('Manager',))

Configure Folder for Blog Entries

We use a standard Folder for dropping the emails in:

>>> self.portal.invokeFactory('Folder', 'blog_entries')
'blog_entries'
>>> blog_entries = self.portal.blog_entries

To enable MailDropbox functionality, we equip the folder with an additional marker interface:

>>> from zope.interface import alsoProvides
>>> from mailtoplone.scrawl.interfaces import IScrawlMailDropBoxMarker
>>> alsoProvides(blog_entries, IScrawlMailDropBoxMarker)

mailtoplone uses a more generic interface IMailDropBox, to adapt the context, we use that to call drop:

>>> from mailtoplone.base.interfaces import IMailDropBox
>>> IMailDropBox(blog_entries).drop("Subject: my first blog entry")

As result, we wexpect a single blog entry, with the title, id set according to the email’s subject:

>>> blog_entries.objectIds()
['my-first-blog-entry']
>>> blog_entry = blog_entries.listFolderContents()[0]
>>> blog_entry.title
u'my first blog entry'
>>> blog_entry.portal_type
'Blog Entry'
