pramod dilshan rathnyake commented on JAMES-1932:
-------------------------------------------------

Hi,

I am Pramod Dilshan Rathnayake a Computer Engineering Undergraduate from the 
faculty of Engineering, University of Ruhuna, Srilanka.
I really like to contribute to this project for GSOC 2017 and I believe I have 
knowledge for do this well. (I have very good experience and knowledge in Java 
EE, Spring/Spring boot/Spring Cloud/Spring Security, Spring Data JPA , 
AngularJS2, HTML, JavaScript, CSS, Maven).
First of all, I went through the documentation of Apache_James_Server 
(https://james.apache.org/server/quick-start.html).
As mentioned there  I downloaded the project source code and configured it on 
my local machine.
Also, I downloaded Binary files of  Apache_James_Server and tried to setup it 
on my local machine. But Unfortunately when I try to create domains and users, 
that give an error. So I need some help to configure it and get some knowledge 
about this.
So if someone gives an idea what I have to do first and How I start this, I 
will be really really grateful.
 
Thanks.

>             Project: James Server
>          Issue Type: Task

> James has to concept of mailet pipeline : for any incoming email, the email 
> is passing through the pipeline the is made of matchers and mailets. These 
> components allow to implement business rules based on some xml configuration 
> and some java component.
> That's a great strength of James and a lot of people use it for this 
> capability.
> Nevertheless, editing the pipeline and making tests is painful right now, you 
> are left finding solutions like "edit xml, launch server, send an email, read 
> logs".
> To ease adoption, we would like to make that process easy and fun by :
> * providing a web ui frontend to design the pipeline
> * given a set of emails, make it possible to visualise each email flow into 
> the mailet pipeline to test it
> * define a way to express the expected results to make sure people can save 
> their work into automated tests
> To implement that, the student must know enough about web frontend dev to 
> implement a pipeline designer and debugger.
> She or he will need to know some java to implement server side logic for :
> * make james accept to reconfigure its pipeline at runtime to take 
> modifications into account
> * design a protocol to stream debug data from a pipeline to the web ui and 
> implement it server-side in java
> * implement a junit runner to be able to run some special mailet tests based 
> on the work done in the web designer.
