Very early stage email archiver for Apache CouchDB and Cloudant.
Looks like this (so far):
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
Publishing the Design Doc / CouchApp to CouchDB is handled by a
gulp script, so it's as easy as...
$ cp config.json.sample config.json
$ # customize the config.json file
$ npm install
$ gulp
This option requires a Context.IO Developer Account. Visit the Settings section of your account and get the API key & secret, then...
$ cp config.contextio.sample.ini account-name.ini
$ # customize the new .ini file
$ python contextio.py account-name.ini
Hope for the best!
It should export the number of emails you specify,
store them by their Message-ID header value (or
timestamp...if Message-ID is missing).
Note: Checkout the api directories README if you want
to setup a basic email address obfuscator and UI.
import.py uses IMAP to connect to the mail server. See the Context.IO option below for something more...resilient.
$ cp config.sample.ini account-name.ini
$ # customize the new .ini file
$ python import.py account-name.ini
The Design Doc includes basic MapReduce for counting things (see Futon, Fauxton, or the Cloudant Dashboard for more). The UI for this is still in the works--stay tuned! 📻
It also includes some Cloudant specific Full-Text Search indexes. These indexes let you search email addresses, subject lines, and message bodies.
Here are some examples...
Search for "fauxton":
/couchdb-mailing-lists/_design/couchmail/_search/mail?q=fauxton
Count those results by subject, to, and from:
/couchdb-mailing-lists/_design/couchmail/_search/mail?q=fauxton&counts=["subject", "to", "from"]
Now drilldown those results to just what I've posted:
/couchdb-mailing-lists/_design/couchmail/_search/mail?q=fauxton&counts=["subject", "to", "from"]&drilldown=["from", "Benjamin Young <byoung@bigbluehat.com>"]
