package Unicode::IMAPUtf7; =head1 NAME Unicode::IMAPUtf7 - Perl extension to deal with IMAP UTF7 =head1 SYNOPSIS use Unicode::IMAPUtf7; my $t = Unicode::IMAPUtf7->new(); print $t->encode('Répertoire'); print $t->decode('R&AOk-pertoire'); **DEPRECATED** print Unicode::IMAPUtf7::imap_utf7_encode('Répertoire'); print Unicode::IMAPUtf7::imap_utf7_decode('R&AOk-pertoire'); **DEPRECATED** =head1 DESCRIPTION IMAP mailbox names are encoded in a modified UTF7 when names contains international characters outside of the printable ASCII range. The modified UTF-7 encoding is defined in RFC2060 (section 5.1.3). =cut use strict; use Exporter; use Unicode::String; use Carp; use vars qw($VERSION @ISA @EXPORT @EXPORT_OK %EXPORT_TAGS); BEGIN { @ISA = qw(Exporter); @EXPORT = (); @EXPORT_OK = qw(imap_utf7_decode imap_utf7_encode); %EXPORT_TAGS = ( 'all' => [qw (imap_utf7_decode imap_utf7_encode)], ); $VERSION = '2.01'; } =head1 METHODS =cut =over 4 =item new() Returns a new instance of a Unicode::IMAPUtf7 object. =back =cut sub new { my $proto = shift; my $class = ref ($proto) || $proto || __PACKAGE__; my $self = bless {}, $class; $self; } =over 4 =item encode($text) Returns the modified UTF7-text for a string in UTF8. =back =cut sub encode { my ($self, $s) = @_; return _imap_utf7_encode(Unicode::String::utf8($s)->utf7); } =over 4 =item decode($text) Returns the decoded string into UTF8 data. =back =cut sub decode { my ($self, $s) = @_; return Unicode::String::utf7(_imap_utf7_decode($s))->utf8; } sub imap_utf7_decode { my ($s) = @_; $s = _imap_utf7_decode($s); return Unicode::String::utf7($s)->latin1; } sub _imap_utf7_decode { my ($s) = @_; # Algorithm # On remplace , par / dans les BASE 64 (, entre & et -) # On remplace les &, non suivi d'un - par + # On remplace les &- par & $s =~ s/\+/PLUSPLACEHOLDER/g; $s =~ s/&([^,&\-]*),([^,\-&]*)\-/&$1\/$2\-/g; $s =~ s/&(?!\-)/\+/g; $s =~ s/&\-/&/g; $s =~ s/PLUSPLACEHOLDER/+-/g; return $s; } sub imap_utf7_encode { my ($s) = @_; $s = Unicode::String::latin1($s)->utf7; $s = _imap_utf7_encode($s); return $s; } sub _imap_utf7_encode { my ($s) = @_; $s =~ s/\+\-/PLUSPLACEHOLDER/g; $s =~ s/\+([^\/&\-]*)\/([^\/\-&]*)\-/\+$1,$2\-/g; $s =~ s/&/&\-/g; $s =~ s/\+([^+\-]+)?\-/&$1\-/g; $s =~ s/PLUSPLACEHOLDER/+/g; return $s; } 1; __END__ =head1 DEPRECATED METHODS B: returns the modified UTF7-text for a string in Latin1. B: returns the decoded string into Latin1 data. These functions may disappear in some later version. Please update with the new OO and UTF8 scheme. See Unicode::String for conversion functions between Latin1 and UTF8. =head1 RFC2060 - section 5.1.3 - Mailbox International Naming Convention By convention, international mailbox names are specified using a modified version of the UTF-7 encoding described in [UTF-7]. The purpose of these modifications is to correct the following problems with UTF-7: 1) UTF-7 uses the "+" character for shifting; this conflicts with the common use of "+" in mailbox names, in particular USENET newsgroup names. 2) UTF-7's encoding is BASE64 which uses the "/" character; this conflicts with the use of "/" as a popular hierarchy delimiter. 3) UTF-7 prohibits the unencoded usage of "\"; this conflicts with the use of "\" as a popular hierarchy delimiter. 4) UTF-7 prohibits the unencoded usage of "~"; this conflicts with the use of "~" in some servers as a home directory indicator. 5) UTF-7 permits multiple alternate forms to represent the same string; in particular, printable US-ASCII chararacters can be represented in encoded form. In modified UTF-7, printable US-ASCII characters except for "&" represent themselves; that is, characters with octet values 0x20-0x25 and 0x27-0x7e. The character "&" (0x26) is represented by the two- octet sequence "&-". All other characters (octet values 0x00-0x1f, 0x7f-0xff, and all Unicode 16-bit octets) are represented in modified BASE64, with a further modification from [UTF-7] that "," is used instead of "/". Modified BASE64 MUST NOT be used to represent any printing US-ASCII character which can represent itself. "&" is used to shift to modified BASE64 and "-" to shift back to US- ASCII. All names start in US-ASCII, and MUST end in US-ASCII (that is, a name that ends with a Unicode 16-bit octet MUST end with a "- "). For example, here is a mailbox name which mixes English, Japanese, and Chinese text: ~peter/mail/&ZeVnLIqe-/&U,BTFw- =head1 REQUESTS & BUGS Please report any requests, suggestions or bugs via the RT bug-tracking system at http://rt.cpan.org/ or email to bug-Unicode-IMAPUtf7\@rt.cpan.org. http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bugs.html?Dist=Unicode-IMAPUtf7 is the RT queue for Unicode::IMAPUtf7.
