Public Class Methods

build(args) click to toggle source

Description ↑

Creates a new URI::MailTo object from components, with syntax checking.

Components can be provided as an Array or Hash. If an Array is used, the components must be supplied as [to, headers].

If a Hash is used, the keys are the component names preceded by colons.

The headers can be supplied as a pre-encoded string, such as “subject=subscribe&cc=address”, or as an Array of Arrays like

['subject', 'subscribe'], ['cc', 'address']

Examples:

require 'uri'

m1 = URI::MailTo.build(['joe@example.com', 'subject=Ruby'])
puts m1.to_s  ->  mailto:joe@example.com?subject=Ruby

m2 = URI::MailTo.build(['john@example.com', [['Subject', 'Ruby'], ['Cc', 'jack@example.com']]])
puts m2.to_s  ->  mailto:john@example.com?Subject=Ruby&Cc=jack@example.com

m3 = URI::MailTo.build({:to => 'listman@example.com', :headers => [['subject', 'subscribe']]})
puts m3.to_s  ->  mailto:listman@example.com?subject=subscribe
 
               # File uri/mailto.rb, line 91

  tmp = Util::make_components_hash(self, args)

  if tmp[:to]
    tmp[:opaque] = tmp[:to]
  else
    tmp[:opaque] = ''
  end

  if tmp[:headers]
    tmp[:opaque] << '?'

    if tmp[:headers].kind_of?(Array)
      tmp[:opaque] << tmp[:headers].collect { |x|
        if x.kind_of?(Array)
          x[0] + '=' + x[1..-1].join
        else
          x.to_s
        end
      }.join('&')

    elsif tmp[:headers].kind_of?(Hash)
      tmp[:opaque] << tmp[:headers].collect { |h,v|
        h + '=' + v
      }.join('&')

    else
      tmp[:opaque] << tmp[:headers].to_s
    end
  end

  return super(tmp)

Description ↑

Creates a new URI::MailTo object from generic URL components with no syntax checking.

This method is usually called from URI.parse, which checks the validity of each component.

def initialize(*arg)
  super(*arg)

  @to = nil
  @headers = []

  if MAILTO_REGEXP =~ @opaque
    if arg[-1]
      self.to = $1
      self.headers = $2
    else
      set_to($1)
      set_headers($2)
    end

  else
    raise InvalidComponentError,
      "unrecognised opaque part for mailtoURL: #{@opaque}"
  end

to_mailtext() click to toggle source

Returns the RFC822 e-mail text equivalent of the URL, as a String.

Example:

require 'uri'

uri = URI.parse("mailto:ruby-list@ruby-lang.org?Subject=subscribe&cc=myaddr")
uri.to_mailtext
# => "To: ruby-list@ruby-lang.org\nSubject: subscribe\nCc: myaddr\n\n\n"

 
               # File uri/mailto.rb, line 255
    def to_mailtext
      to = parser.unescape(@to)
      head = ''
      body = ''
      @headers.each do |x|
        case x[0]
        when 'body'
          body = parser.unescape(x[1])
        when 'to'
          to << ', ' + parser.unescape(x[1])
        else
          head << parser.unescape(x[0]).capitalize + ': ' +
            parser.unescape(x[1])  + "\n"
        end
      end

      return "To: #{to}
