Hello,
We want to trigger a script after certain actions by the user (event). This script inserts the action into message queue (e.g. Rabbit MQ) accompanied with some data. Then one or more workers picks up the action from the message queue and do something with it. The question is: how can I trigger the script from dovecot?
An action/event should at least emitted when moving an e-mail message. The amount of data in the event is unknown. My current goal I would like to at least know the sender and receiver address and the type of action (e.g. move). But I can imagine, when having an event driven application, that others might even want the complete e-mail message to be in data.
Is such an event driven system possible? When looking at current features of Dovecot: it would the same as the mail_log feature, but instead of writing to a file, one should able to write to a script or socket. Ideally the format of the event would JSON, XML or another data format.
Regards, Frederik
Current version: Dovecot 2.2.16.
Michael,
Thanks a lot! After looking at the source, I guess the ox driver will do. Maybe, when other people find this thread, you could tell what dlog is. Because I do not know it, and googling came up with little results.
Regards,
Frederik

"dlog" is nothing more than a push-notification backend that will log various information and hook triggers (at a DEBUG level) to the Dovecot log. It's meant for debugging and development purposes.
"dlog" stands for either "Dovecot LOGging" or "Debug LOGging", whichever you prefer.

Ah fantastic. Now I guess I can use notify plugin without push_notification metadata plugins, right? Im not sure I understand the question correctly. I understood from the thread that you would be writing a driver for the push-notification plugin, so you need to load that plugin. In case you mean the imap_metadata = yes setting, you do not need that, if your driver does not use metadata.

Teemu,
If just need the http request, I will need something like the following configuration, right? So no meta data plugin, but with notify and push_notification?
protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = $mail_plugins notify push_notification }
plugin { push_notification_driver = ox:url=http://myurl/ <http://login:pass@node1.domain.tld:8009/preliminary/http-notify/v1/notify> }

Hi, I'm interested to testing push_notification with ox driver (I need only a GET when a new message arrived) but I don't understand how to insert METADATA information via IMAP for an user.
Can somebody provide an example? Thanks

As to how to register for the notifications, the best documentation is probably the source. You can see it in either http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.2/file/9654ab4c337c/src/plugins/push-notific... or maybe more easily in the OX source code file backend/com.openexchange.push.dovecot/src/com/openexchange/push/dovecot/commands/RegistrationCommand.java You can get the backend source by git clone https://code.open-xchange.com/git/wd/backend
An example would be something like: SETMETADATA "" (/private/vendor/vendor.dovecot/http-notify "user=myusername")
