Compresses the given string. Valid values of level are Zlib::NO_COMPRESSION, Zlib::BEST_SPEED, Zlib::BEST_COMPRESSION, Zlib::DEFAULT_COMPRESSION, or an integer from 0 to 9.
This method is almost equivalent to the following code:
def deflate(string, level) z = Zlib::Deflate.new(level) dst = z.deflate(string, Zlib::FINISH) z.close dst end
See also Zlib.inflate
Inputs string into the deflate stream and returns the output from the stream. On calling this method, both the input and the output buffers of the stream are flushed. If string is nil, this method finishes the stream, just like Zlib::ZStream#finish.
If a block is given consecutive deflated chunks from the string are yielded to the block and nil is returned.
The flush parameter specifies the flush mode. The following constants may be used:
The default
Flushes the output to a byte boundary
SYNC_FLUSH + resets the compression state
Pending input is processed, pending output is flushed.
See the constants for further description.
Decompresses string. Raises a Zlib::NeedDict exception if a preset dictionary is needed for decompression.
This method is almost equivalent to the following code:
def inflate(string) zstream = Zlib::Inflate.new buf = zstream.inflate(string) zstream.finish zstream.close buf end
See also Zlib.deflate
Inputs deflate_string into the inflate stream and returns the output from the stream. Calling this method, both the input and the output buffer of the stream are flushed. If string is nil, this method finishes the stream, just like Zlib::ZStream#finish.
If a block is given consecutive inflated chunks from the deflate_string are yielded to the block and nil is returned.
Raises a Zlib::NeedDict exception if a preset dictionary is needed to decompress. Set the dictionary by Zlib::Inflate#set_dictionary and then call this method again with an empty string to flush the stream:
inflater = Zlib::Inflate.new begin out = inflater.inflate compressed rescue Zlib::NeedDict # ensure the dictionary matches the stream's required dictionary raise unless inflater.adler == Zlib.adler32(dictionary) inflater.set_dictionary dictionary inflater.inflate '' end # ... inflater.close

Returns the last access time for this file as an object of class Time.
File.stat("testfile").atime #=> Wed Dec 31 18:00:00 CST 1969
Returns true if the file is a character device, false if it isn’t or if the operating system doesn’t support this feature.
File.stat("/dev/tty").chardev? #=> true
Iterates over keys and objects in a weakly referenced object
Returns the path of this instruction sequence.
<compiled> if the iseq was evaluated from a string.
For example, using irb:
iseq = RubyVM::InstructionSequence.compile('num = 1 + 2') #=> <RubyVM::InstructionSequence:<compiled>@<compiled>> iseq.path #=> "<compiled>"
Using ::compile_file:
# /tmp/method.rb
def hello
puts "hello, world"
end
# in irb
> iseq = RubyVM::InstructionSequence.compile_file('/tmp/method.rb')
> iseq.path #=> /tmp/method.rb
Store session data on the server. For some session storage types, this is a no-op.
Yields each pair of the row as header and field tuples (much like iterating over a Hash).
Support for Enumerable.
This method returns the row for chaining.
In the default mixed mode or row mode, iteration is the standard row major walking of rows. In column mode, iteration will yield two element tuples containing the column name and an Array of values for that column.
This method returns the table for chaining.
Changes the (remote) directory.
Returns the status (STAT command).
Sends an AUTHENTICATE command to authenticate the client. The auth_type parameter is a string that represents the authentication mechanism to be used. Currently Net::IMAP supports the authentication mechanisms:
LOGIN:: login using cleartext user and password.
CRAM-MD5:: login with cleartext user and encrypted password
(see [RFC-2195] for a full description). This
mechanism requires that the server have the user's
password stored in clear-text password.
For both of these mechanisms, there should be two args: username and (cleartext) password. A server may not support one or the other of these mechanisms; check capability() for a capability of the form “AUTH=LOGIN” or “AUTH=CRAM-MD5”.
Authentication is done using the appropriate authenticator object: see @@authenticators for more information on plugging in your own authenticator.
For example:
imap.authenticate('LOGIN', user, password)
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError is raised if authentication fails.
Sends a CREATE command to create a new mailbox.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError is raised if a mailbox with that name cannot be created.
Sends a STATUS command, and returns the status of the indicated mailbox. attr is a list of one or more attributes whose statuses are to be requested. Supported attributes include:
MESSAGES:: the number of messages in the mailbox. RECENT:: the number of recent messages in the mailbox. UNSEEN:: the number of unseen messages in the mailbox.
The return value is a hash of attributes. For example:
p imap.status("inbox", ["MESSAGES", "RECENT"]) #=> {"RECENT"=>0, "MESSAGES"=>44}
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError is raised if status values for mailbox cannot be returned; for instance, because it does not exist.
Sends a CHECK command to request a checkpoint of the currently selected mailbox. This performs implementation-specific housekeeping; for instance, reconciling the mailbox’s in-memory and on-disk state.
Sends a SEARCH command to search the mailbox for messages that match the given searching criteria, and returns message sequence numbers. keys can either be a string holding the entire search string, or a single-dimension array of search keywords and arguments. The following are some common search criteria; see [IMAP] section 6.4.4 for a full list.
a set of message sequence numbers. ‘,’ indicates an interval, ‘:’ indicates a range. For instance, ‘2,10:12,15’ means “2,10,11,12,15”.
messages with an internal date strictly before <date>. The date argument has a format similar to 8-Aug-2002.
messages that contain <string> within their body.
messages containing <string> in their CC field.
messages that contain <string> in their FROM field.
messages with the Recent, but not the Seen, flag set.
negate the following search key.
“or” two search keys together.
messages with an internal date exactly equal to <date>, which has a format similar to 8-Aug-2002.
messages with an internal date on or after <date>.
messages with <string> in their subject.
messages with <string> in their TO field.
For example:
p imap.search(["SUBJECT", "hello", "NOT", "NEW"]) #=> [1, 6, 7, 8]
