Commit eabddf8f eabddf8f5f18afddc13281a5fbaa562f75e76b5f by Sergey Poznyakoff

mail: new options to read attachments from file descriptors

* mail/mail.c (default_encoding,default_content_type)
(content_name,content_filename): New statics.
(cli_attach): Use the value of --content-name option as the
content-type name parameter.
The "-" argument instructs the program to read attachment from
stdin (eqv --attach-fd=0)
(cli_attach_fd): New function.
(mail_options): New options: --content-name, --content-filename,
--attach-fd
* mail/mail.h (send_attach_file_default): Remove.
(send_attach_file): New proto.
* mail/send.c (atchinfo): New fields: id, name, source.
(atchinfo_free): Update.
(default_encoding,default_content_type): Remove globals.
(send_attach_file): Rewrite.
(send_attach_file_default): Remove.
(escape_list_attachments): Print attachment identifier instead
of the file name, which can be NULL.
(saveatt): Use mu_attachment_create and mu_attachment_copy_from_stream.

* NEWS: Update.
* doc/texinfo/programs.texi: Document the new options.

12 ** Modifying attachment name and filename
13
14 Two new options are provided for modifying attachment name (a.k.a
15 description), and file name:
16
17 --content-name=STRING
18 Sets the attachment name (description). Technically speaking, it
19 is the "name" parameter in the Content-Type MIME header.
20
21 --content-filename=NAME
22 Sets the file name (the "filename" parameter in the
23 Content-Description MIME header of the outgoing message.
24
25 Both options affect only the next `--attach' or `--attach-fd' option.
26
27 * Constructing attachments from command line
28
29 The new option `--attach-fd=N' instructs mail to read attachment from
30 file descriptor N. By default, the attachments created using this
31 option are unnamed, i.e. neither name parameter of the Content-Type
32 header, nor the filename parameter of the Content-Disposition header
33 are set. Use the --content-name and --content-filename options to
34 change these.
35
36 The option `--attach-fd=0' causes attachment to be read from the
37 standard input. The option `--attach=-' has the same effect. For
38 obvious reasons, the interactive mode is suppressed in this case.
39
40 The `--attach-fd' option is useful when calling `mail' from another
41 program.
42
43 Example:
44
45 Suppose that the 'mail' binary is opened at file descriptor 5 and
46 the mail.c file is opened at descriptor 6, the following command
47 line sends them as attachments:
48
49 mail --encoding=base64 \
50 --content-type=application/octet-stream \
51 --content-name="the mail(1) binary" --content-filename="mail" \
52 --attach-fd=5 \
53 --encoding=binary\
54 --content-type=text/plain --content-name="mail.c source file"\
55 --content-filename=mail.c --attach-fd=6 \

3438 @subsection Sending Attachments
3439
3440 The simplest way to attach a file from command line is by using the
3441 @option{--attach} (@option{-A}) option. Its argument specifies the
3442 file to attach. For example, the following will attach the content
3443 of the file @file{archive.tar}:
3444
3445 @example
3446 $ mail --attach=archive.tar
3447 @end example
3448
3449 By default, the content type will be set to
3450 @samp{application/octet-stream}, and the attachment will be encoded
3451 using the @samp{base64} encoding. To change the content type, use the
3452 @option{--content-type} option. For example, to send an HTML
3453 attachment:
3454
3455 @example
3456 $ mail --content-type=text/html --attach=in.html
3457 @end example
3458
3459 The @option{--content-type} option affects all @option{--attach}
3460 options that follow it. To change the content type, simply add
3461 another @option{--content-type} option. For example, to send both
3462 the HTML file and the archive:
3463
3464 @example
3465 $ mail --content-type=text/html --attach=in.html \
3466 --content-type=application/x-tar --attach=archive.tar
3467 @end example
3468
3469 Similarly, the encoding to use is set up by the @option{--encoding}
3470 option. As well as @option{--content-type}, this option affects all
3471 attachments supplied after it in the command line, until changed by
3472 the eventual next appearance of the same option. Extending the above
3473 example:
3474
3475 @example
3476 $ mail --content-type=text/html --encoding=quoted-printable \
3477 --attach=in.html \
3478 --content-type=application/x-tar --encoding=base64 \
3479 --attach=archive.tar
3480 @end example
3481
3482 Each attachment can also be assigned a @dfn{description} and a
3483 @dfn{file name}. Normally, these are the same as the file name
3484 supplied with the @option{--attach} option. However, you can change
3485 either or both of them using the @option{--content-name} and
3486 @option{--content-filename}, correspondingly. Both of these options
3487 affect only the next @option{--attach} (or @option{--attach-fd}, see
3488 below) option.
3489
3490 All the examples above will enter the usual interactive shell,
3491 allowing you to compose the body of the message. If that's not
3492 needed, the non-interactive use can be forced by redirecting
3493 @file{/dev/null} to the standard input, e.g.:
3494
3495 @example
3496 $ mail --attach=archive.tar < /dev/null
3497 @end example
3498
3499 This will normally produce a message saying:
3500
3501 @example
3502 mail: Null message body; hope that's ok
3503 @end example
3504
3505 To suppress this message, unset the @samp{nullbodymsg} variable,
3506 as shown in the example below:
3507
3508 @example
3509 $ mail -E 'set nonullbodymsg' --attach=archive.tar < /dev/null
3510 @end example
3511
3512 The option @option{--attach=-} forces @command{mail} to read the file
3513 to be attached from the standard input stream. This option implies
3514 disables the interactive mode and sets @samp{nonullbodymsg}
3515 implicitly, so that the above example can be rewritten as:
3516
3517 @example
3518 $ mail --attach=- < archive.tar
3519 @end example
3520
3521 Special option is provided to facilitate the use of @command{mail}
3522 in scripts. The @option{--attach-fd=@var{N}} instructs the program to
3523 read the data to be attached from the file descriptor @var{N}. The
3524 above example is equivalent to:
3525
3526 @example
3527 $ mail --attach-fd=0 < archive.tar
3528 @end example
3529
3530 Attachments created using this option have neither filename not
3531 description set, so normally the use of @option{--content-name} and/or
3532 @option{--content-filename} is advised.
3533
3534 @example
3535 $ mail --subject 'mail(1)' \
3536 --content-name="The mail(1) binary" --content-filename="mail" \
3537 --attach-fd 5 \
3538 --encoding=binary --content-type=text/plain \
3539 --content-name="mail.c source file" --content-filename=mail.c \
3540 --attach-fd 6 gray@@example.org 5</usr/bin/mail \
