Eric Charles updated MAILBOX-46:
--------------------------------
Summary: Simplify Mailbox implemetations wiring (was: Simplify Mailbox API)
> Simplify Mailbox implemetations wiring
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: MAILBOX-46
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAILBOX-46
> Project: James Mailbox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: api
> Reporter: Eric Charles
> Assignee: Norman Maurer
> Fix For: 0.3
>
>
> From http://www.mail-archive.com/server-dev@james.apache.org/msg31051.html,
> there is room for discussion on mailbox API.
> Stefano says:
> "How do I create a maildir folder right now? I think we can't expect
> direct mailbox users if we don't provide a simpler interface for it
> (or maybe I simply haven't found it).
> Here is the code I find in a test:
> ----
> MaildirStore store = new MaildirStore(MAILDIR_HOME + "/%domain/%user");
> MaildirMailboxSessionMapperFactory mf = new
> MaildirMailboxSessionMapperFactory(store);
> MaildirMailboxManager manager = new MaildirMailboxManager(mf, null, store);
> manager.init();
> String user = "test@localhost";
> MailboxSession session = manager.createSystemSession(user, new
> SimpleLog("Test"));
> manager.createMailbox(new MailboxPath(MailboxConstants.USER_NAMESPACE,
> user, "Trash"), session);
> -----
> I find it a bit "complex" for an average user that is simply looking
> for a "maildir" library.
> At least it should be easy to reduce it a bit like this:
> -------
> MaildirMailboxManager manager = new
> MaildirMailboxManager("myfolder/%domain/%user"); // internally create
> MaildirStore and MaildirMailboxSessionMapperFactory appropriately and
> maybe also init() it!
> String user = "test@localhost";
> MailboxSession session = manager.createSystemSession(user); // no
> logger parameter, then use a slf4j
> manager.createMailbox("Trash", session); // this can create the
> MailboxPath using "Trash" as a user folder, so getting the user from
> the session and the namespace from MailboxConstants.USER_NAMESPACE.
> -------
> And maybe it should be even simpler: I try to think why I would need
> maildir and probably I don't expect to deal with sessions and users,
> but only with path and messages (but maybe I'm missing the goal of the
> mailbox library).
> If this is possible then I don't see why an user should care about spring.
> Just my 2 cents: of course you better know what's in there, so if you
> still think having spring config in mailbox then go ahead.
