Introduction
------------
Dovecot's Push Notification framework exposes RFC 5423 (Internet Message Store
Events) [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5423] events that occur in Dovecot to a
system that can be used to report these events to external services.
These events are available within the notification framework, although a driver
may not implement all:
* FlagsClear
* FlagsSet
* MailboxCreate
* MailboxDelete
* MailboxRename
* MailboxSubscribe
* MailboxUnsubscribe
* MessageAppend
* MessageExpunge
* MessageNew
* MessageRead
* MessageTrash
These events are not supported by the notification framework:
* Login (handled by <Authentication.txt>)
* Logout (handled by <Authentication.txt>)
* QuotaExceed (handled by <Quota.txt>)
* QuotaWithin (handled by <Quota.txt>)
Usage
-----
To use push notifications, both the "notify" and the "push_notification"
plugins need to be activated. For LMTP delivery, this is required:
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
protocol lmtp {
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins notify push_notification
}
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you also want push notifications to work for LDA-based delivery, you would
need additional configuration:
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
protocol lda {
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins notify push_notification
}
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drivers
-------
DLOG (Debug log)
----------------
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
plugin {
push_notification_driver = dlog
}
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
This will cause notifications to end up in your debug log.
OX (Open-Xchange) driver
------------------------
The OX backend supports sending notifications on MessageNew events (i.e. mail
deliveries, not IMAP APPENDs).
The HTTP end-point (URL + authentication information) to use is configured in
the Dovecot configuration file. The appropriate configuration options will
contain the HTTP URL denoting the end-point to connect to as well as the
authentication information for Basic Authentication as configured by properties
"com.openexchange.rest.services.basic-auth.login" and
"com.openexchange.rest.services.basic-auth.password". The URL to configure in
Dovecot configuration follows this pattern.
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
<http|https> + "://" + <login> + ":" + <password> + "@" + <host> + ":" + <port>
+ "/preliminary/http-notify/v1/notify"
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
E.g.
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
plugin {
push_notification_driver =
ox:url=http://login:pass@node1.domain.tld:8009/preliminary/http-notify/v1/notify
}
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
For HTTPS endpoints, system CAs are trusted by default, but internal CAs might
need further configuration.
Furthermore, it is also possible to specify more than one HTTP end-point to
connect to if a new message delivery occurs. Thus the configuration section
mentioned above may be extended by additional "push_notification_driver"
entries; e.g. push_notification_driver2, push_notification_driver3, etc.
Please note that the path "/preliminary/http-notify/v1/notify" denotes the
internal REST API of the Open-Xchange Middleware, which is not publicly
accessible. The administrator can decide whether to add that path to the Apache
configuration (see alsoAppSuite:Apache_Configuration and AppSuite:Grizzly)
through a Location/ProxyPass directive:
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
<Location /preliminary>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
# Only allow access from servers within the network. Do not expose this
# location outside of your network. In case you use a load balancing service
in front
# of your Apache infrastructure you should make sure that access to
/preliminary will
# be blocked from the internet / outside clients. Examples:
# Allow from 192.168.0.1
# Allow from 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2
# Allow from 192.168.0.
ProxyPass /preliminary balancer://oxcluster/preliminary
</Location>
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
In case the "user=" sent by OX in the push_notification_driver url data does
not match the IMAP login of a user, Dovecot ignores it. This can be overridden
by defining "user_from_metadata" in the push_notification_driver url, e.g.
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
push_notification_driver = ox:url=http://example.com/ user_from_metadata
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Metadata
--------
The push notifications are enabled separately for each user using METADATA.
Normally <AppSuite.txt> does this internally, but for e.g. testing purposes you
can do this yourself:
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
doveadm mailbox metadata set -u user@example.com -s ""
/private/vendor/vendor.dovecot/http-notify user=11@3
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example Payload
---------------
See
https://github.com/dovecot/core/blob/master/src/plugins/push-notification/push-notification-driver-ox.c.
Push notification sent in JSON format with the following fields:
* *user*: User identifier (string)
* *event*: RFC 5423 event type (string; currently only "'MessageNew'")
* *folder*: Mailbox name (string)
* *imap-uidvalidity*: RFC 3501 UIDVALIDITY value of the mailbox (integer)
* *imap-uid*: UID of the message, if applicable (integer)
* *from*: RFC 2822 address of the message sender, if applicable (string)
* *subject*: Subject of the message, if applicable (string)
* *snippet*: Snippet of the message body, if applicable (string)
* *unseen*: RFC 3501 UNSEEN value of the mailbox (integer)
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
{
"user": "4@464646669",
"imap-uidvalidity": 123412341,

"from": "alice@barfoo.org",
"subject": "Test",
"snippet": "Hey guys\nThis is only a test...",
"unseen": 2
}
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lua
---
Since v2.3.4+ you can use Lua to write custom push notification handlers. See
<Design.Lua.txt> for general information about Lua in Dovecot. If you have
mail_lua_script (a global script for storage) it will be used if no script is
specified.
Configuration
-------------
---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_lua notify push_notification
push_notification_lua
plugin {
push_notification_driver = lua:file=/path/to/lua/script
# you can omit the script name if you want to use mail_lua_script script
instead
#mail_lua_script=/path/to/common/script.lua
}

Overview
--------
The Lua driver hooks into all events, and calls matching functions when found
in Lua script.
Currently it supports
* mailbox create, delete, rename, subscribe and unsubscribe
* message new, append, expunge, read and trash, flags set, flags clear
All events are called within a transaction. The event is called with context
and an event table, which contains the event parameters.All events contain at
least
* name - name of the event
* user - current mail user
Events are always called after the fact.
There has to be at least one event handler, or the transaction begin and end
functions are never called.This is optimization to avoid roundtrip to Lua when
it's not needed.
Transactions
------------
* dovecot_lua_notify_begin_txn(user)
Start transaction. Return value is used as transaction context and is treated
as opaque value by Lua driver. The user parameter is mail_user object.
* dovecot_lua_notify_end_txn(context, success)
End transaction, context is unreferenced.
Mailbox events
--------------
All mailbox events contain 'mailbox' parameter, which is the name of the
affected mailbox.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_mailbox_create(context, {name, mailbox})
Called when mailbox has been created.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_mailbox_delete(context, {name, mailbox})
Called when mailbox has been deleted.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_mailbox_rename(context, {name, mailbox,
mailbox_old})
Called when mailbox has been renamed, old name is retained in mailbox_old
attribute.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_mailbox_subscribe(context, {name, mailbox})
Called when mailbox has been subscribed to. The mailbox does not necessarily
exist.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_mailbox_unsubscribe(context, {name, mailbox})
Called when mailbox has been unsubscribed from. The mailbox does not
necessarily exist.
Message events
--------------
All message events contain following parameters
+--------------+----------------------+
| mailbox | Mailbox name |
+--------------+----------------------+
| uid | Message UID |
+--------------+----------------------+
| uid_validity | Mailbox UID validity |
+--------------+----------------------+
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_message_new(context, {name, mailbox, uid,
uid_validity, date, tz, from, to, subject, snippet})
Called when message is delivered.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_message_append(context, {name, mailbox, uid,
uid_validity, from, to, subject, snippet})
Called when message is APPENDed to a mailbox.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_message_read(context, {name, mailbox, uid,
uid_validity})
Called when message is marked as Seen.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_message_trash(context, {name, mailbox, uid,
uid_validity})
Called when message is marked Deleted.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_message_expunge(context, {name, mailbox, uid,
uid_validity})
Called when message is EXPUNGEd.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_flags_set(context, {name, mailbox, uid,
uid_validity, flags, keywords_set})
Called when message flags or keywords are set. flags is a bitmask. keywords_set
is a table of strings of the keywords set by the event.
* dovecot_lua_notify_event_flags_clear(context, {name, mailbox, uid,
uid_validity, flags, keywords_clear, keywords_old})
Called when message flags or keywords are removed. flags is a bitmask.
keywords_clear contains the keywords cleared, keywords_old is the table of
keywords that were set before the event.
