Returns data (e.g., size, last modification time, entry type, etc.) about the file or directory specified by pathname
. If pathname
is omitted, the current directory is assumed.
Returns the status (STAT command).
when stat is invoked with pathname as a parameter it acts like list but a lot faster and over the same tcp session.
Issues an OPTS command
name Should be the name of the option to set
params is any optional parameters to supply with the option
example: option(‘UTF8’, ‘ON’) => ‘OPTS UTF8 ON’
Posts data to the specified URI
object.
Example:
require 'net/http' require 'uri' Net::HTTP.post URI('http://www.example.com/api/search'), { "q" => "ruby", "max" => "50" }.to_json, "Content-Type" => "application/json"
Creates a new Net::HTTP
object, then additionally opens the TCP connection and HTTP
session.
Arguments are the following:
hostname or IP address of the server
port of the server
address of proxy
port of proxy
user of proxy
pass of proxy
optional hash
opt sets following values by its accessor. The keys are ipaddr, ca_file
, ca_path
, cert, cert_store
, ciphers, close_on_empty_response
, key, open_timeout
, read_timeout
, write_timeout
, ssl_timeout
, ssl_version
, use_ssl, verify_callback
, verify_depth
and verify_mode. If you set :use_ssl as true, you can use https and default value of verify_mode
is set as OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER.
If the optional block is given, the newly created Net::HTTP
object is passed to it and closed when the block finishes. In this case, the return value of this method is the return value of the block. If no block is given, the return value of this method is the newly created Net::HTTP
object itself, and the caller is responsible for closing it upon completion using the finish() method.
Returns true if the HTTP
session has been started.
Opens a TCP connection and HTTP
session.
When this method is called with a block, it passes the Net::HTTP
object to the block, and closes the TCP connection and HTTP
session after the block has been executed.
When called with a block, it returns the return value of the block; otherwise, it returns self.
Posts data
(must be a String
) to path
. header
must be a Hash
like { ‘Accept’ => ‘/’, … }.
This method returns a Net::HTTPResponse
object.
If called with a block, yields each fragment of the entity body in turn as a string as it is read from the socket. Note that in this case, the returned response object will not contain a (meaningful) body.
dest
argument is obsolete. It still works but you must not use it.
This method never raises exception.
response = http.post('/cgi-bin/search.rb', 'query=foo') # using block File.open('result.txt', 'w') {|f| http.post('/cgi-bin/search.rb', 'query=foo') do |str| f.write str end }
You should set Content-Type: header field for POST. If no Content-Type: field given, this method uses “application/x-www-form-urlencoded” by default.
Sends a COPY request to the path
and gets a response, as an HTTPResponse
object.
Sends a MKCOL request to the path
and gets a response, as an HTTPResponse
object.
Sends a STARTTLS command to start TLS session.
Sends a UNSUBSCRIBE command to remove the specified mailbox
name from the server’s set of “active” or “subscribed” mailboxes.
A Net::IMAP::NoResponseError
is raised if mailbox
cannot be unsubscribed from; for instance, because the client is not currently subscribed to it.
Sends a LIST command, and returns a subset of names from the complete set of all names available to the client. refname
provides a context (for instance, a base directory in a directory-based mailbox hierarchy). mailbox
specifies a mailbox or (via wildcards) mailboxes under that context. Two wildcards may be used in mailbox
: ‘*’, which matches all characters including the hierarchy delimiter (for instance, ‘/’ on a UNIX-hosted directory-based mailbox hierarchy); and ‘%’, which matches all characters except the hierarchy delimiter.
If refname
is empty, mailbox
is used directly to determine which mailboxes to match. If mailbox
is empty, the root name of refname
and the hierarchy delimiter are returned.
The return value is an array of Net::IMAP::MailboxList
. For example:
imap.create("foo/bar") imap.create("foo/baz") p imap.list("", "foo/%") #=> [#<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noselect], delim="/", name="foo/">, \\ #<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noinferiors, :Marked], delim="/", name="foo/bar">, \\ #<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noinferiors], delim="/", name="foo/baz">]
Sends a XLIST command, and returns a subset of names from the complete set of all names available to the client. refname
provides a context (for instance, a base directory in a directory-based mailbox hierarchy). mailbox
specifies a mailbox or (via wildcards) mailboxes under that context. Two wildcards may be used in mailbox
: ‘*’, which matches all characters including the hierarchy delimiter (for instance, ‘/’ on a UNIX-hosted directory-based mailbox hierarchy); and ‘%’, which matches all characters except the hierarchy delimiter.
If refname
is empty, mailbox
is used directly to determine which mailboxes to match. If mailbox
is empty, the root name of refname
and the hierarchy delimiter are returned.
The XLIST command is like the LIST command except that the flags returned refer to the function of the folder/mailbox, e.g. :Sent
The return value is an array of Net::IMAP::MailboxList
. For example:
imap.create("foo/bar") imap.create("foo/baz") p imap.xlist("", "foo/%") #=> [#<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noselect], delim="/", name="foo/">, \\ #<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noinferiors, :Marked], delim="/", name="foo/bar">, \\ #<Net::IMAP::MailboxList attr=[:Noinferiors], delim="/", name="foo/baz">]
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 COPY command to copy the specified message(s) to the end of the specified destination mailbox
. The set
parameter is a number, an array of numbers, or a Range
object. The number is a message sequence number.
Creates a new POP3
object and open the connection. Equivalent to
Net::POP3.new(address, port, isapop).start(account, password)
If block
is provided, yields the newly-opened POP3
object to it, and automatically closes it at the end of the session.
Net::POP3.start(addr, port, account, password) do |pop| pop.each_mail do |m| file.write m.pop m.delete end end
Provide human-readable stringification of class state.
true
if the POP3
session has started.
Starts a POP3
session.
When called with block, gives a POP3
object to the block and closes the session after block call finishes.
This method raises a POPAuthenticationError
if authentication fails.
Provide human-readable stringification of class state.
