README
Custom datasource for CakePHP (2.x) to interact with your mail server with IMAP functionality.
Put the ImapSource.php datasource in your app/Model/Datasource
directory and just setup like the following.
<?php //app/Model/CustomEmail.php class CustomEmail extends AppModel { // Important: public $useDbConfig = 'myCustomEmail'; public $useTable = false; // Whatever: public $displayField = 'subject'; public $limit = 10; // Semi-important: // You want to use the datasource schema, and still be able to set // $useTable to false. So we override Cake's schema with that exception: function schema($field = false) { if (!is_array($this->_schema) || $field === true) { $db =& ConnectionManager::getDataSource($this->useDbConfig); $db->cacheSources = ($this->cacheSources && $db->cacheSources); $this->_schema = $db->describe($this, $field); } if (is_string($field)) { if (isset($this->_schema[$field])) { return $this->_schema[$field]; } else { return null; } } return $this->_schema; } }
Now you need to define credentials in your app/Config/Database.php
with the following code.
<?php //app/Config/Database.php public $myCustomEmail = array( 'datasource' => 'ImapSource', 'server' => 'YourIMAPServerHost', 'username' => 'IMAPServerUsername', 'password' => 'yourIMAPPassword', 'port' => 'IMAPServerPort', 'ssl' => true, 'encoding' => 'UTF-8', 'error_handler' => 'php', 'auto_mark_as' => array( 'Seen', // 'Answered', // 'Flagged', // 'Deleted', // 'Draft', ), );
Now from your controller just access your email like below:
<?php // app/Controller/MailsController.php //your controller codes ... public function index() { $this->loadModel('CustomEmail'); $emails = $this->CustomEmail->find('first'); var_dump($emails); die(); }
Now you will get the email. See the debug output. If you have any question please feel free to mail me at shaharia.azam@gmail.com
