Using Zend to parse raw SMTP email data

March 11, 2009 by dmertl 3 Comments

I needed to create a script today that takes raw SMTP input from stdin. The project is running on Zend and they have a library for email. However, their documentation is geared toward getting that email from a mailserver. As far as I could find there wasn’t an example of how to create an email object out of the raw SMTP data.

Create a Zend_Mail_Message from the raw string.

$email = new Zend_Mail_Message(array('raw' => $email_str));

To grab the subject:

$email->subject;

All I wanted was the body from the text/plain piece of the email. If you’ve got a multi-part message it’s a little tricky. Here’s what I compiled from Zend’s documentation:

if($email->isMultipart()) {
  foreach (new RecursiveIteratorIterator($email) as $part) {
    try {
      if (strtok($part->contentType, ';') == 'text/plain') {
        $body = trim($part);
        break;
      }
    } catch (Zend_Mail_Exception $e) { // ignore }
  }
  if(!$body) {
    //Error
  }
} else {
  $body = trim($email->getContent());
}

Zend and Doctrine on Mac OS X Leopard

September 11, 2008 by admin 9 Comments

I recently spent several hours beating my head against the wall trying to figure out why Doctrine and Zend weren’t playing nice together. I was using the version of Apache and PHP that comes with Mac OS X Leopard. When trying to load up the site in my Zend framework I got the error:

Warning: Zend_Loader::include_once(Doctrine/Adapter/Mysql.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

Which made me think I was missing the mysql adapter for Doctrine. Looking in the Doctrine/Adapter folder, at least with the latest version, you’ll notice there is only a Mysqli.php no Mysql.php. This led me to think that I was missing some essential library for Doctrine. However, this was not the case. The issue is that the build of PHP that comes with Mac OS X Leopard does not include pdo_mysql. The extension is listed in the php.ini file and you can uncomment it, but it won’t load. Rather than try and compile PHP with pdo_mysql support I decided to move to MAMP. Which turned out to be a wonderful choice. It’s got pdo_mysql support in its PHP build. It’s also a great way to do local development since you can easily turn it on, or restart. I would highly recommend it for development on your local machine.
