== DESCRIPTION

MMS2R by Mike Mondragon https://github.com/monde/mms2r https://rubygems.org/gems/mms2r http://peepcode.com/products/mms2r-pdf

MMS2R is a library that decodes the parts of a MMS message to disk while stripping out advertising injected by the mobile carriers. MMS messages are multipart email and the carriers often inject branding into these messages. Use MMS2R if you want to get at the real user generated content from a MMS without having to deal with the cruft from the carriers.

If MMS2R is not aware of a particular carrier no extra processing is done to the MMS other than decoding and consolidating its media.

MMS2R can be used to process any multipart email to conveniently access the parts the mail is comprised of.

Contact the author to add additional carriers to be processed by the library. Suggestions and patches appreciated and welcomed!

== BOOKS

MMS2R, Making email useful http://peepcode.com/products/mms2r-pdf

== SYNOPSIS

begin require 'mms2r' rescue LoadError require 'rubygems' require 'mms2r' end

required for the example

require 'fileutils'

mail = MMS2R::Media.new(Mail.read('some_saved_mail.file')) puts "mail has default carrier subject" if mail.subject.empty?

access the sender's phone number

puts "mail was from phone #{mail.number}"

most mail are either image or video, default_media will return the largest

(non-advertising) video or image found

file = mail.default_media puts "mail had a media: #{file.inspect}" unless file.nil?

finds the largest (non-advertising) text found

file = mail.default_text puts "mail had some text: #{file.inspect}" unless file.nil?

mail.media is a hash that is indexed by mime-type.

The mime-type key returns an array of filepaths

to media that were extract from the mail and

are of that type

mail.media['image/jpeg'].each {|f| puts "#{f}"} mail.media['text/plain'].each {|f| puts "#{f}"}

print the text (assumes mail had text)

text = IO.readlines(mail.media['text/plain'].first).join puts text

save the image (assumes mail had a jpeg)

FileUtils.cp mail.media['image/jpeg'].first, '/some/where/useful', :verbose => true

puts "does the mail have quicktime video? #{!mail.media['video/quicktime'].nil?}"

puts "plus run anything that Mail provides, e.g. #{mail.to.inspect}"

check if the mail is from a mobile phone

puts "mail is from a mobile phone #{mail.is_mobile?}"

determine the device type of the phone

puts "mail is from a mobile phone of type #{mail.device_type?}"

inspect default media's exif data if exifr gem is installed and default

media is a jpeg or tiff

puts "mail's default media's exif data is:" puts mail.exif.inspect

Block support, process and receive all media types of video.

mail.process do |media_type, files| # assumes a Clip model that is an AttachmentFu Clip.create(:uploaded_data => files.first, :title => "From phone") if media_type =~ /video/ end

Another AttachmentFu example, Picture model is an AttachmentFu

picture = Picture.new picture.title = mail.subject picture.uploaded_data = mail.default_media picture.save!

#remove all the media that was put to temporary disk mail.purge
