Results for: "remove_const"

Provide human-readable stringification of class state.

Returns truth value if this object uses STARTTLS. If this object always uses STARTTLS, returns :always. If this object uses STARTTLS when the server support TLS, returns :auto.

Creates a new Net::SMTP object and connects to the server.

This method is equivalent to:

Net::SMTP.new(address, port).start(helo_domain, account, password, authtype)

Example

Net::SMTP.start('your.smtp.server') do |smtp|
  smtp.send_message msgstr, 'from@example.com', ['dest@example.com']
end

Block Usage

If called with a block, the newly-opened Net::SMTP object is yielded to the block, and automatically closed when the block finishes. If called without a block, the newly-opened Net::SMTP object is returned to the caller, and it is the caller’s responsibility to close it when finished.

Parameters

address is the hostname or ip address of your smtp server.

port is the port to connect to; it defaults to port 25.

helo is the HELO domain provided by the client to the server (see overview comments); it defaults to ‘localhost’.

The remaining arguments are used for SMTP authentication, if required or desired. user is the account name; secret is your password or other authentication token; and authtype is the authentication type, one of :plain, :login, or :cram_md5. See the discussion of SMTP Authentication in the overview notes.

Errors

This method may raise:

• Net::SMTPAuthenticationError

• Net::SMTPServerBusy

• Net::SMTPSyntaxError

• Net::SMTPFatalError

• Net::SMTPUnknownError

• Net::OpenTimeout

• Net::ReadTimeout

• IOError

true if the SMTP session has been started.

Opens a TCP connection and starts the SMTP session.

Parameters

helo is the HELO domain that you’ll dispatch mails from; see the discussion in the overview notes.

If both of user and secret are given, SMTP authentication will be attempted using the AUTH command. authtype specifies the type of authentication to attempt; it must be one of :login, :plain, and :cram_md5. See the notes on SMTP Authentication in the overview.

Block Usage

When this methods is called with a block, the newly-started SMTP object is yielded to the block, and automatically closed after the block call finishes. Otherwise, it is the caller’s responsibility to close the session when finished.

Example

This is very similar to the class method SMTP.start.

require 'net/smtp'
smtp = Net::SMTP.new('smtp.mail.server', 25)
smtp.start(helo_domain, account, password, authtype) do |smtp|
  smtp.send_message msgstr, 'from@example.com', ['dest@example.com']
end

The primary use of this method (as opposed to SMTP.start) is probably to set debugging (set_debug_output) or ESMTP (esmtp=), which must be done before the session is started.

Errors

If session has already been started, an IOError will be raised.

This method may raise:

• Net::SMTPAuthenticationError

• Net::SMTPServerBusy

• Net::SMTPSyntaxError

• Net::SMTPFatalError

• Net::SMTPUnknownError

• Net::OpenTimeout

• Net::ReadTimeout

• IOError

Args

v

String

Description

Public setter for the typecode v (with validation).

See also URI::FTP.check_typecode.

Usage

require 'uri'

uri = URI.parse("ftp://john@ftp.example.com/my_file.img")
#=> #<URI::FTP ftp://john@ftp.example.com/my_file.img>
uri.typecode = "i"
uri
#=> #<URI::FTP ftp://john@ftp.example.com/my_file.img;type=i>

Searches list id for opt and the optional patterns for completion pat. If icase is true, the search is case insensitive. The result is returned or yielded if a block is given. If it isn’t found, nil is returned.

This is used as a predicate, and ought to be called first.
