Re: [Mailman-Developers] GSoC 2014 : Proposal for the Mailman CLI project
Hi, My proposal has been successfully accepted into the GSoC 2014 program.I would like to thank the Mailman community and mentors for their extensive support during my application process,especially Mr. Stephen Turnbull. Also I have a few questions as part of the community bonding process. 1.Is the project to be developed as an independent project or as a part/branch of the Mailman Core repository 2.If it is an Independent project, Is it OK to use the git+gitorious/savannah or should I stick to bzr+launchpad? I have used git extensively,naturally more comfortable with git.However, I can pick up bzr if necessary. 3.Is it necessary for me to hangout in the IRC?If yes, when? 4.Can I start coding right away?

Re: [Mailman-Developers] handler to auto detach attachment and link it to a website keeping html
Hi,
Seems working… Great.

You don't have to do that. If xxx is the base64 encoded image data, all
you need is
clip = MIMEImage(xxx, 'png', _encoder=email.encoders.encode_noop)
clip['Content-Transfer-Encoding'] = 'base64'
Cool!
The working code I produced is:
from email.mime.image import MIMEImage
from email import encoders
#[…]
clip = MIMEImage(ATTACH_CLIP, 'png', _encoder=encoders.encode_noop)
clip['Content-Transfer-Encoding'] = 'base64'
clip.add_header('Content-ID', 'part1.%s' % clip_cid)
Thank you. :-)
List configuration question.
I need to pass some configuration plugin to this handler. Like remote
ftp parameters. I've seen code like this:
if mlist.convert_html_to_plaintext and
mm_cfg.HTML_TO_PLAIN_TEXT_COMMAND:
I suppose that I configure it that way:
/etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py
HTML_TO_PLAIN_TEXT_COMMAND = 'path/to/converter'
and in my extend()
mlist.convert_html_to_plaintext = 1
is in /var/lib/mailman/lists/mytestlist/extend.py [debian base path]
I took it here
http://wiki.list.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4030615. I used
extend.py to install my custom handler that way:
import copy
from Mailman import mm_cfg
def extend(mlist):
mlist.pipeline = copy.copy(mm_cfg.GLOBAL_PIPELINE)
# The next line inserts MyHandler ahead of Moderate.
mlist.pipeline.insert(mlist.pipeline.index('Moderate'), 'MyHandler')
Also, it's indicated that there's a kind of caching involved with the
Handler's code…:
Note however, that the first time Mailman saves the list, the pipeline
attribute will be saved along with it, so simply removing extend.py
from lists/test-list/ won't remove the special pipeline.
I do perform a mailman restart to load new handler's code:
/etc/init.d/mailman restart
Is there some documentation about list configuration override order?
I found a topic giving some information for personalizing the list:
4.48 How can I change the HTML (or .txt) templates used by my mailing lists?

Re: [Mailman-Developers] GSoC 2014 : Proposal for the Mailman CLI project
Just to follow up quickly (I've got problems I need to deal with elsewhere over the next couple days). Abhilash Raj writes: Hey, thanks for jumping in, maxking! Hi Rajeev, Congratulations! We look forward to a great summer with you. Definitely! I would like to thank the Mailman community and mentors for their extensive support during my application process, You're very welcome. Also I have a few questions as part of the community bonding process. 1.Is the project to be developed as an independent project or as a part/branch of the Mailman Core repository That is supposed to be an implementation detail of your proposal. What do you think would be the best? I agree with Abhilash. You make a proposal, we'll criticize it (contructively; criticism is not necessarily negative, just as with literary critics we may give a positive review -- you should know when you're doing things right). 2.If it is an Independent project, Is it OK to use the git+gitorious/savannah or should I stick to bzr+launchpad? I have used git extensively,naturally more comfortable with git. However, I can pick up bzr if necessary. Even if it is an independent project we strongly encourage you to use bzr, as integration and code review might become a problem in later stages of your project( I am speaking from personal experience). Learning bzr and launchpad is not at all difficult if you know git. The CLI won't be *that* independent. It really needs to be on Launchpad. Note: It may be possible to use git-bzr to fetch and push from Launchpad. 3.Is it necessary for me to hangout in the IRC?If yes, when? It is not *necessary* for you to hangout on IRC. You just need to keep your mentors updated about what are you doing all the time. If you prefer email, I don't think that would be a problem. Your only responsibility is to deliver the project you proposed on time. It's generally a good idea to have interaction (brainstorming) when working on design. I can generally be available on IRC from about 01:00 UTC to 15:00 UTC. As Abhilash knows :-) I can often be convinced to stay around until about 17:00 UTC. yaseppochi @ freenode 4.Can I start coding right away? You can, but first be sure you know what you want to code. Your proposal does have a detailed description on working of the tool, however there is little mention about the details of implementation and design. It would be best if you first consult with your mentors and decide on something so that you don't waste time writing code that is not needed.

If you are doing this as a part of content filtering you just set the

suspect you are not.
In that case, don't hijack content filtering settings for your own

If you are going to hard code some setting for your handler to use, just
hard code it in the handler.

It is not caching per se. Once you access the list once and save it,
your modified pipeline is saved as a list attribute just like any other
setting. Removing extend.py will not remove the pipeline attribute from
the list. That is what the above is trying to tell you.
I do perform a mailman restart to load new handler's code:
/etc/init.d/mailman restart
Yes. That is correct.
Is there some documentation about list configuration override order?
Not outside the source code. See the __init__ method of the MailList
class in Mailman/MailList.py. The list's extend.py if any is executed
before the list's configuration is loaded from disk. Thus any list
attribute set in extend.py that also exists in the list's saved
configuration will be overridden by the list config.
I found a topic giving some information for personalizing the list:

Re: [Mailman-Developers] handler to auto detach attachment and link it to a website keeping html
Hi,
Thanks for your helpful answer. :-)
Sorry it seems I don't have explained my needs correctly:
On 04/22/2014 03:46 AM, Sylvain Viart wrote:
List configuration question.
I need to pass some configuration plugin to this handler. Like remote
ftp parameters.
I'm looking for a way to handle my own list's parameter, and I quoted
some /equivalent/ parameter.
Just some chuck of code I would like to implement for my own handler.
I need to set :
mlist.ftp_remote_host = 'ftp.example.com'
mlist.ftp_remote_login = 'somelogin'
mlist.ftp_remote_pass = 'secretstuff'
I can set site global vars in /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py but how do I set
local list parameter exactly?
I wont code web interface to handle this, text file config will be great
enough.
In that case, don't hijack content filtering settings for your own
purpose. It won't work. If you are going to hard code some setting for
your handler to use, just hard code it in the handler.
Sorry about this quoting introducing a confusion. No hijack here. No
hard code neither because if I want to open and share the code, I have
to remove sensible information from it. Code can embed default
information, but not the config.
Is there some documentation about list configuration override order?
Not outside the source code. See the __init__ method of the MailList
class in Mailman/MailList.py. The list's extend.py if any is executed
before the list's configuration is loaded from disk. Thus any list
attribute set in extend.py that also exists in the list's saved
configuration will be overridden by the list config.
And where do I set list configuration? I'm not familiar enough with this
code to /see/ where it comes from.
Mailman/MailList.py […] mailman 2.1.15
filename = os.path.join(self.fullpath(), 'extend.py')
dict = {}
try:
execfile(filename, dict)
except IOError, e:
# Ignore missing files, but log other errors
if e.errno == errno.ENOENT:
pass
else:
syslog('error', 'IOError reading list extension: %s', e)
else:
func = dict.get('extend')
if func:
func(self)== run the
extend() function found in mylists/extend.py
if lock:
# This will load the database.
self.Lock() == do some more
stuff possibly overwriting what was done in extend()
else:
self.Load()
There should be something about bin/config_list I think. Web config
seems detailed here:
http://terri.zone12.com/doc/mailman/mailman-admin/node9.html
Is there a room for free parameter as well?
Regards,
Sylvain.
