:mod:`email.headerregistry`: Custom Header Objects
--------------------------------------------------
.. module:: email.headerregistry
:synopsis: Automatic Parsing of headers based on the field name
.. moduleauthor:: R. David Murray <rdmurray@bitdance.com>
.. sectionauthor:: R. David Murray <rdmurray@bitdance.com>
**Source code:** :source:`Lib/email/headerregistry.py`
--------------
.. versionadded:: 3.6 [1]_
Headers are represented by customized subclasses of :class:`str`. The
particular class used to represent a given header is determined by the
:attr:`~email.policy.EmailPolicy.header_factory` of the :mod:`~email.policy` in
effect when the headers are created. This section documents the particular
``header_factory`` implemented by the email package for handling :RFC:`5322`
compliant email messages, which not only provides customized header objects for
various header types, but also provides an extension mechanism for applications
to add their own custom header types.
When using any of the policy objects derived from
:data:`~email.policy.EmailPolicy`, all headers are produced by
:class:`.HeaderRegistry` and have :class:`.BaseHeader` as their last base
class. Each header class has an additional base class that is determined by
the type of the header. For example, many headers have the class
:class:`.UnstructuredHeader` as their other base class. The specialized second
class for a header is determined by the name of the header, using a lookup
table stored in the :class:`.HeaderRegistry`. All of this is managed
transparently for the typical application program, but interfaces are provided
for modifying the default behavior for use by more complex applications.
The sections below first document the header base classes and their attributes,
followed by the API for modifying the behavior of :class:`.HeaderRegistry`, and
finally the support classes used to represent the data parsed from structured
headers.
.. class:: BaseHeader(name, value)
*name* and *value* are passed to ``BaseHeader`` from the
:attr:`~email.policy.EmailPolicy.header_factory` call. The string value of
any header object is the *value* fully decoded to unicode.
This base class defines the following read-only properties:
.. attribute:: name
The name of the header (the portion of the field before the ':'). This
is exactly the value passed in the
:attr:`~email.policy.EmailPolicy.header_factory` call for *name*; that
is, case is preserved.
.. attribute:: defects
A tuple of :exc:`~email.errors.HeaderDefect` instances reporting any
RFC compliance problems found during parsing. The email package tries to
be complete about detecting compliance issues. See the :mod:`~email.errors`
module for a discussion of the types of defects that may be reported.
.. attribute:: max_count
The maximum number of headers of this type that can have the same
``name``. A value of ``None`` means unlimited. The ``BaseHeader`` value
for this attribute is ``None``; it is expected that specialized header
classes will override this value as needed.
``BaseHeader`` also provides the following method, which is called by the
email library code and should not in general be called by application
programs:
.. method:: fold(*, policy)
Return a string containing :attr:`~email.policy.Policy.linesep`
characters as required to correctly fold the header according to
*policy*. A :attr:`~email.policy.Policy.cte_type` of ``8bit`` will be
treated as if it were ``7bit``, since headers may not contain arbitrary
binary data. If :attr:`~email.policy.EmailPolicy.utf8` is ``False``,
non-ASCII data will be :rfc:`2047` encoded.
``BaseHeader`` by itself cannot be used to create a header object. It
defines a protocol that each specialized header cooperates with in order to
produce the header object. Specifically, ``BaseHeader`` requires that
the specialized class provide a :func:`classmethod` named ``parse``. This
method is called as follows::
parse(string, kwds)
``kwds`` is a dictionary containing one pre-initialized key, ``defects``.
``defects`` is an empty list. The parse method should append any detected
defects to this list. On return, the ``kwds`` dictionary *must* contain
values for at least the keys ``decoded`` and ``defects``. ``decoded``
should be the string value for the header (that is, the header value fully
decoded to unicode). The parse method should assume that *string* may
contain content-transfer-encoded parts, but should correctly handle all valid
unicode characters as well so that it can parse un-encoded header values.
``BaseHeader``'s ``__new__`` then creates the header instance, and calls its
``init`` method. The specialized class only needs to provide an ``init``
method if it wishes to set additional attributes beyond those provided by
``BaseHeader`` itself. Such an ``init`` method should look like this::
def init(self, *args, **kw):
self._myattr = kw.pop('myattr')
super().init(*args, **kw)
That is, anything extra that the specialized class puts in to the ``kwds``
dictionary should be removed and handled, and the remaining contents of
``kw`` (and ``args``) passed to the ``BaseHeader`` ``init`` method.
.. class:: UnstructuredHeader
An "unstructured" header is the default type of header in :rfc:`5322`.
Any header that does not have a specified syntax is treated as
unstructured. The classic example of an unstructured header is the
:mailheader:`Subject` header.
In :rfc:`5322`, an unstructured header is a run of arbitrary text in the
ASCII character set. :rfc:`2047`, however, has an :rfc:`5322` compatible
mechanism for encoding non-ASCII text as ASCII characters within a header
value. When a *value* containing encoded words is passed to the
constructor, the ``UnstructuredHeader`` parser converts such encoded words
into unicode, following the :rfc:`2047` rules for unstructured text. The
parser uses heuristics to attempt to decode certain non-compliant encoded
words. Defects are registered in such cases, as well as defects for issues
such as invalid characters within the encoded words or the non-encoded text.
This header type provides no additional attributes.
.. class:: DateHeader
:rfc:`5322` specifies a very specific format for dates within email headers.
The ``DateHeader`` parser recognizes that date format, as well as
recognizing a number of variant forms that are sometimes found "in the
wild".
This header type provides the following additional attributes:
.. attribute:: datetime
If the header value can be recognized as a valid date of one form or
another, this attribute will contain a :class:`~datetime.datetime`
instance representing that date. If the timezone of the input date is
specified as ``-0000`` (indicating it is in UTC but contains no
information about the source timezone), then :attr:`.datetime` will be a
naive :class:`~datetime.datetime`. If a specific timezone offset is
found (including `+0000`), then :attr:`.datetime` will contain an aware
``datetime`` that uses :class:`datetime.timezone` to record the timezone
offset.
The ``decoded`` value of the header is determined by formatting the
``datetime`` according to the :rfc:`5322` rules; that is, it is set to::
email.utils.format_datetime(self.datetime)
When creating a ``DateHeader``, *value* may be
:class:`~datetime.datetime` instance. This means, for example, that
the following code is valid and does what one would expect::
msg['Date'] = datetime(2011, 7, 15, 21)
Because this is a naive ``datetime`` it will be interpreted as a UTC
timestamp, and the resulting value will have a timezone of ``-0000``. Much
more useful is to use the :func:`~email.utils.localtime` function from the
:mod:`~email.utils` module::
msg['Date'] = utils.localtime()
This example sets the date header to the current time and date using
the current timezone offset.
.. class:: AddressHeader
Address headers are one of the most complex structured header types.
The ``AddressHeader`` class provides a generic interface to any address
header.
This header type provides the following additional attributes:
.. attribute:: groups
A tuple of :class:`.Group` objects encoding the
addresses and groups found in the header value. Addresses that are
not part of a group are represented in this list as single-address
``Groups`` whose :attr:`~.Group.display_name` is ``None``.
.. attribute:: addresses
A tuple of :class:`.Address` objects encoding all
of the individual addresses from the header value. If the header value
contains any groups, the individual addresses from the group are included
in the list at the point where the group occurs in the value (that is,
the list of addresses is "flattened" into a one dimensional list).
The ``decoded`` value of the header will have all encoded words decoded to
unicode. :class:`~encodings.idna` encoded domain names are also decoded to
unicode. The ``decoded`` value is set by :attr:`~str.join`\ ing the
:class:`str` value of the elements of the ``groups`` attribute with ``',
'``.
A list of :class:`.Address` and :class:`.Group` objects in any combination
may be used to set the value of an address header. ``Group`` objects whose
``display_name`` is ``None`` will be interpreted as single addresses, which
allows an address list to be copied with groups intact by using the list
obtained from the ``groups`` attribute of the source header.
.. class:: SingleAddressHeader
A subclass of :class:`.AddressHeader` that adds one
additional attribute:
.. attribute:: address
The single address encoded by the header value. If the header value
actually contains more than one address (which would be a violation of
the RFC under the default :mod:`~email.policy`), accessing this attribute
will result in a :exc:`ValueError`.
Many of the above classes also have a ``Unique`` variant (for example,
``UniqueUnstructuredHeader``). The only difference is that in the ``Unique``
variant, :attr:`~.BaseHeader.max_count` is set to 1.
.. class:: MIMEVersionHeader
There is really only one valid value for the :mailheader:`MIME-Version`
header, and that is ``1.0``. For future proofing, this header class
supports other valid version numbers. If a version number has a valid value
per :rfc:`2045`, then the header object will have non-``None`` values for
the following attributes:
.. attribute:: version
The version number as a string, with any whitespace and/or comments
removed.
.. attribute:: major
The major version number as an integer
.. attribute:: minor
The minor version number as an integer
.. class:: ParameterizedMIMEHeader
MIME headers all start with the prefix 'Content-'. Each specific header has
a certain value, described under the class for that header. Some can
also take a list of supplemental parameters, which have a common format.
This class serves as a base for all the MIME headers that take parameters.
.. attribute:: params
A dictionary mapping parameter names to parameter values.
.. class:: ContentTypeHeader
A :class:`ParameterizedMIMEHeader` class that handles the
:mailheader:`Content-Type` header.
.. attribute:: content_type
The content type string, in the form ``maintype/subtype``.
.. attribute:: maintype
.. attribute:: subtype
.. class:: ContentDispositionHeader
A :class:`ParameterizedMIMEHeader` class that handles the
:mailheader:`Content-Disposition` header.
.. attribute:: content-disposition
``inline`` and ``attachment`` are the only valid values in common use.
.. class:: ContentTransferEncoding
Handles the :mailheader:`Content-Transfer-Encoding` header.
.. attribute:: cte
Valid values are ``7bit``, ``8bit``, ``base64``, and
``quoted-printable``. See :rfc:`2045` for more information.
.. class:: HeaderRegistry(base_class=BaseHeader, \
default_class=UnstructuredHeader, \
use_default_map=True)
This is the factory used by :class:`~email.policy.EmailPolicy` by default.
``HeaderRegistry`` builds the class used to create a header instance
dynamically, using *base_class* and a specialized class retrieved from a
registry that it holds. When a given header name does not appear in the
registry, the class specified by *default_class* is used as the specialized
class. When *use_default_map* is ``True`` (the default), the standard
mapping of header names to classes is copied in to the registry during
initialization. *base_class* is always the last class in the generated
class's ``__bases__`` list.
The default mappings are:
:subject: UniqueUnstructuredHeader
:date: UniqueDateHeader
:resent-date: DateHeader
:orig-date: UniqueDateHeader
:sender: UniqueSingleAddressHeader
:resent-sender: SingleAddressHeader
:to: UniqueAddressHeader
:resent-to: AddressHeader
:cc: UniqueAddressHeader
:resent-cc: AddressHeader
:from: UniqueAddressHeader
:resent-from: AddressHeader
:reply-to: UniqueAddressHeader
``HeaderRegistry`` has the following methods:
.. method:: map_to_type(self, name, cls)
*name* is the name of the header to be mapped. It will be converted to
lower case in the registry. *cls* is the specialized class to be used,
along with *base_class*, to create the class used to instantiate headers
that match *name*.
.. method:: __getitem__(name)
Construct and return a class to handle creating a *name* header.
.. method:: __call__(name, value)
Retrieves the specialized header associated with *name* from the
registry (using *default_class* if *name* does not appear in the
registry) and composes it with *base_class* to produce a class,
calls the constructed class's constructor, passing it the same
argument list, and finally returns the class instance created thereby.
The following classes are the classes used to represent data parsed from
structured headers and can, in general, be used by an application program to
construct structured values to assign to specific headers.
.. class:: Address(display_name='', username='', domain='', addr_spec=None)
The class used to represent an email address. The general form of an
address is::
[display_name] <username@domain>
or::
username@domain
where each part must conform to specific syntax rules spelled out in
:rfc:`5322`.
As a convenience *addr_spec* can be specified instead of *username* and
*domain*, in which case *username* and *domain* will be parsed from the
*addr_spec*. An *addr_spec* must be a properly RFC quoted string; if it is
not ``Address`` will raise an error. Unicode characters are allowed and
will be property encoded when serialized. However, per the RFCs, unicode is
*not* allowed in the username portion of the address.
.. attribute:: display_name
The display name portion of the address, if any, with all quoting
removed. If the address does not have a display name, this attribute
will be an empty string.
.. attribute:: username
The ``username`` portion of the address, with all quoting removed.
.. attribute:: domain
The ``domain`` portion of the address.
.. attribute:: addr_spec
The ``username@domain`` portion of the address, correctly quoted
for use as a bare address (the second form shown above). This
attribute is not mutable.
.. method:: __str__()
The ``str`` value of the object is the address quoted according to
:rfc:`5322` rules, but with no Content Transfer Encoding of any non-ASCII
characters.
To support SMTP (:rfc:`5321`), ``Address`` handles one special case: if
``username`` and ``domain`` are both the empty string (or ``None``), then
the string value of the ``Address`` is ``<>``.
.. class:: Group(display_name=None, addresses=None)
The class used to represent an address group. The general form of an
address group is::
display_name: [address-list];
As a convenience for processing lists of addresses that consist of a mixture
of groups and single addresses, a ``Group`` may also be used to represent
single addresses that are not part of a group by setting *display_name* to
``None`` and providing a list of the single address as *addresses*.
.. attribute:: display_name
The ``display_name`` of the group. If it is ``None`` and there is
exactly one ``Address`` in ``addresses``, then the ``Group`` represents a
single address that is not in a group.
.. attribute:: addresses
A possibly empty tuple of :class:`.Address` objects representing the
addresses in the group.
.. method:: __str__()
The ``str`` value of a ``Group`` is formatted according to :rfc:`5322`,
but with no Content Transfer Encoding of any non-ASCII characters. If
``display_name`` is none and there is a single ``Address`` in the
``addresses`` list, the ``str`` value will be the same as the ``str`` of
that single ``Address``.
