DIMAP

An HTTP REST interface for attachments in your Gmail account.

Usage

npm install dimap -g
dimap -u bencoe@gmail.com -p password

You can also run dimap with XOAUTH credentials (which can be generated using my fork of node-oauth, or a similar library).

dimap -x qwerty=

Once You've Got DIMAP up and running:

Find a message in your All Mail folder with Attachments.
Inside a web-browser navigate to 127.0.0.1:8000/MSGID/FILENAME.
- Here's a URL that works for my account: http://127.0.0.1:8000/13ecdddc67300f2a/bencoe.jpg

The onConnection hook fires when a connection is made to the IMAP proxy, prior to negotiating a connection to Gmail through IMAP.

We've used this hook at Attachments.me to build an authentication system on top of DIMAP.

Add hooks for $statsd event logging.
Make it so dimap can support multiple mailboxes based on tag, e.g., "ALL MAIL", "TRASH".

Have fun, and be careful!
