Python operates on the gmail instance

This article illustrates how python works with gmail. Share with you for your reference.

The specific implementation method is as follows:

import imaplib, re

 

class pygmail(object):

    def __init__(self):

        self.IMAP_SERVER='imap.gmail.com'

        self.IMAP_PORT=993

        self.M = None

        self.response = None

        self.mailboxes = []

 

    def login(self, username, password):

        self.M = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL(self.IMAP_SERVER, self.IMAP_PORT)

        rc, self.response = self.M.login(username, password)

        return rc

 

    def get_mailboxes(self):

        rc, self.response = self.M.list()

        for item in self.response:

            self.mailboxes.append(item.split()[-1])

        return rc

 

    def get_mail_count(self, folder='Inbox'):

        rc, self.response = self.M.select(folder)

        return self.response[0]

 

    def get_unread_count(self, folder='Inbox'):

        rc, self.response = self.M.status(folder, "(UNSEEN)")

        unreadCount = re.search("UNSEEN (d+)", self.response[0]).group(1)

        return unreadCount

 

    def get_imap_quota(self):

        quotaStr = self.M.getquotaroot("Inbox")[1][1][0]

        r = re.compile('d+').findall(quotaStr)

        if r == []:

            r.append(0)

            r.append(0)

        return float(r[1])/1024, float(r[0])/1024

 

    def get_mails_from(self, uid, folder='Inbox'):

        status, count = self.M.select(folder, readonly=1)

        status, response = self.M.search(None, 'FROM', uid)

        email_ids = [e_id for e_id in response[0].split()]

        return email_ids

 

    def get_mail_from_id(self, id):

        status, response = self.M.fetch(id, '(body[header.fields (subject)])')

        return response

 

    def rename_mailbox(self, oldmailbox, newmailbox):

        rc, self.response = self.M.rename(oldmailbox, newmailbox)

        return rc

 

    def create_mailbox(self, mailbox):

        rc, self.response = self.M.create(mailbox)

        return rc

 

    def delete_mailbox(self, mailbox):

        rc, self.response = self.M.delete(mailbox)

        return rc

 

    def logout(self):

        self.M.logout()

 

if __name__ =="__main__":

    demo=pygmail()

    demo.login("renwenchao888@gmail.com","qqq191430791")

    mailBoxex=demo.get_mailboxes()

    for i in demo.response:

        print i

    demo.logout()
