The Gmail class provides an easy way to manage sending and receiving mail in Gmail.

Syntax

class cloudmail.GMail

Remarks

This class provides an easy to use interface for Gmail using version 3 of the Gmail REST API. To use the class, first set the authorization property to a valid OAuth token. The Gmail class can be used for sending or creating new messages; retrieving existing messages; creating, deleting, or sending drafts; and several other functionalities supported by the Gmail API.

This class requires authentication via OAuth 2.0. First, perform OAuth authentication using the OAuth* properties to set the appropriate fields for the chosen o_auth_client_profile and o_auth_grant_type.

The class has the following defaults:

Below is a brief description of the different o_auth_client_profile and o_auth_grant_type values that are supported by this class. For a more in-depth description of what needs to be set, refer to the service documentation.

Application Profile

This profile encompasses the most basic grant types that OAuth supports. When this profile is set, all the requests and response handling is done by the class. Depending on the grant type, this may involve launching a browser so a user can login to authenticate with a authorization server. It may also involve starting an embedded web server to receive a response from a redirect.

To start the authentication and authorization process, the authorize method should be called. If the authorization and authentication was successful, then the o_auth_access_token property will be populated. Additionally, if a refresh token was provided the o_auth_refresh_token property will be populated as well. These values of the fields are for informational purposes. The class will also cache these tokens along with when the o_auth_access_token will be expired. When a method that makes requests to the service provider is called or the authorize method is called the class will automatically check to see if the access token is expired. If it is, it will then automatically try to get a new o_auth_access_token. If the authorize method was not used and user interaction would be required, the class will throw an error which can be caught. When user interaction is needed depends on what grant type is set in the o_auth_grant_type property. To force the component to only check the access token when the authorize method is called, the OAuthAutomaticRefresh configuration setting can be set to false.

A brief description of the supported values for the o_auth_grant_type property are below. For more information, see the service documentation.

Authorization Code

When using the Authorization Code grant type, the class will use an authorization code to get an access token. For this o_auth_grant_type the class expects a o_auth_client_id, o_auth_client_secret, o_auth_server_auth_url, and o_auth_server_token_url to be set. When the authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the class will parse the authorization code, setting the o_auth_authorization_code property, from the redirect. Immediately, the class will make a request to the token server to exchange the authorization code for an access token. The token server will return an access token and possibly a refresh token. If the o_auth_refresh_token property is set, or a refresh token is cached, then the class will not launch the browser and use the refresh token in its request to the token server instead of an authorization code.

Example: Gmail gmail = new Gmail(); gmail.OAuth.ClientProfile = OAuthClientProfiles.cocpApplication; gmail.OAuth.GrantType = OAuthGrantTypes.cogtAuthorizationCode; gmail.OAuth.ClientId = CLIENT_ID; gmail.OAuth.ClientSecret = CLIENT_SECRET; gmail.Authorize();

Implicit

Note: This grant type is considered insecure and should only be used when necessary.

When using the Implicit grant type, the class will request the authorization server to get an access token. For this o_auth_grant_type the class expects a o_auth_client_id, o_auth_client_secret, and o_auth_server_auth_url to be set. When the authorize method is called, the component will start the embedded web server and launch the browser so the user can authorize the application. Once the user authorizes, the service provider will redirect them to the embedded web server and the class will parse the access token from the redirect.

A disadvantage of the grant type is that can not use a refresh token to silently get a new access token. Most service providers offer a way to silently get a new access token. See the service documentation for specifics. This means the class will not be able to automatically get a fresh token once it expires.

Web Profile

External OAuth Support

Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN_VALUE

Assign this value to the authorization property before attempting any operations. Setting the authorization property will cause the class to ignore the values set in the o_auth property.

For Example: Oauth oauth = new Oauth(); oauth.ClientId = "CLIENT_ID"; oauth.ClientSecret = "CLIENT_SECRET"; oauth.AuthorizationScope = "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly"; oauth.ServerAuthURL = "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth"; oauth.ServerTokenURL = "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token"; oauth.GrantType = OauthGrantTypes.ogtAuthorizationCode; gmail.Authorization = oauth.GetAuthorization(); Consult the documentation for the service for more information about supported scope values and more details on OAuth authentication.

Sending Messages

There are two methods for sending messages using the Gmail component. The send_mail method will send a message directly. Alternatively, you can create a message draft and then send an existing draft using the send_draft method. In both cases the properties of the new message are assigned through the Message properties (message_subject, message_body_content, message_cc, etc.).

Sending a Message with SendDraft: gmail.MessageSubject = "I am sending an email."; gmail.MessageBodyContentType = "TEXT"; gmail.MessageBodyContent = "Just wanted to let you know."; gmail.MessageTo = "reader@tautology.org"; gmail.CreateDraft(); string messageId = gmail.MessageInfo[0].Id; gmail.SendDraft(messageId);

Receiving Messages

Information about messages fetched by the component can be accessed through the MessageInfo* properties. The MessageInfo* properties is populated when the list_messages, fetch_message_info, or search methods are called.

The list_messages method will list the messages.

By default, the component will fetch one page of 100 messages when list_messages is called. If additional messages remain in the folder, the next_page_token property will be populated. If list_messages is then called again on the same folder the next page of messages will be fetched. The example below populates the MessageInfo* properties with all the messages in the mailbox. do { gmail.ListMessages("", ""); } while (gmail.NextPageToken.Length > 0);

The message page size may also be changed by using the MessagePageSize configuration setting.

@property
def on_message_part() -> Callable[[GMailMessagePartEventParams], None]: ...
@on_message_part.setter
def on_message_part(event_hook: Callable[[GMailMessagePartEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The on_message_part_list event is fired for each message part retrieved from the server when list_messages or list_drafts is called.

on_ssl_server_authentication Event

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

class GMailSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def cert_encoded() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def cert_subject() -> str: ...

  @property
  def cert_issuer() -> str: ...

  @property
  def status() -> str: ...

  @property
  def accept() -> bool: ...
  @accept.setter
  def accept(value) -> None: ...

# In class GMail:
@property
def on_ssl_server_authentication() -> Callable[[GMailSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]: ...
@on_ssl_server_authentication.setter
def on_ssl_server_authentication(event_hook: Callable[[GMailSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

on_ssl_status Event

Shows the progress of the secure connection.

Syntax

class GMailSSLStatusEventParams(object):
  @property
  def message() -> str: ...

# In class GMail:
@property
def on_ssl_status() -> Callable[[GMailSSLStatusEventParams], None]: ...
@on_ssl_status.setter
def on_ssl_status(event_hook: Callable[[GMailSSLStatusEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

on_transfer Event

This event is fired while a document transfers (delivers document).

Syntax

class GMailTransferEventParams(object):
  @property
  def direction() -> int: ...

  @property
  def bytes_transferred() -> int: ...

  @property
  def percent_done() -> int: ...

  @property
  def text() -> bytes: ...

# In class GMail:
@property
def on_transfer() -> Callable[[GMailTransferEventParams], None]: ...
@on_transfer.setter
def on_transfer(event_hook: Callable[[GMailTransferEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The Text parameter contains the portion of the document text being received. It is empty if data are being posted to the server.

The BytesTransferred parameter contains the number of bytes transferred in this Direction since the beginning of the document text (excluding HTTP response headers).

The Direction parameter shows whether the client (0) or the server (1) is sending the data.

The PercentDone parameter shows the progress of the transfer in the corresponding direction. If PercentDone can not be calculated the value will be -1.

Note: Events are not re-entrant. Performing time-consuming operations within this event will prevent it from firing again in a timely manner and may affect overall performance.
