Docker Integration
by Alex Brandt 13 Jul '14

13 Jul '14

Hey Guys, I've been looking into making docker integration easier in Roundcube and was wondering if work along these lines would be welcome in a pull request. The changes I would want as part of the docker integration are 1) a Dockerfile that can build and run roundcube and 2) environment variable reading for configuration values. I've started some work in this direction but wanted to see if it's something that's interesting to the project as well. Let me know if I should send a pull request or open a bug. Thanks, -- Alex Brandt Cloud Evangelist for Rackspace http://blog.alunduil.com

ipv6
by Cor Bosman 22 Jun '14

22 Jun '14

Hey guys, our imap service has both a v4 and a v6 address. We're having some issues on v6, and id like rc to connect to v4 only. But... rc uses the imap server name in the database :( I dont want to remove the v6 address from the imap dns record, but it seems impossible for me to tell rc to connect v4 only without it starting a new database key because the imap server would change... Any way to do this? Cor

jQuery UI 1.10.4 now in git master
by Thomas Bruederli 17 Jun '14

17 Jun '14

Dear developers I just updated the jQuery UI version shipped with Roundcube core to version 1.10.4. The change from 1.9.5 unfortunatlely implies some API changes which are all documented here: http://jqueryui.com/upgrade-guide/1.10/ Please review your plugins and patches for compatibility issues with the changed API! For now the $.uiBackCompat mode is still enabled but we like to keep up with the stable releases from jQuery UI where more API changes are to be expected. So be prepared for that :-) Kind regards, Thomas

capabilities
by Cor Bosman 09 Jun '14

09 Jun '14

Hey devs, i need to know if an imap server supports threading. I can ask this through the capability functions, but that is a really expensive call because it asks the imap server. Obviously RC could know the capabilities right at login because the response of the login is a capability string. Is this string saved anywhere so I can use it without making an expensive imap call? From any task. Regards, Cor

user configurable shortcuts, alpha version
by Cor Bosman 09 Jun '14

09 Jun '14

Hey devs, i have a preliminary version of the keyboards shortcuts plugin with user settings. It was a complete rewrite. I struggled a lot with what to support as far as keys go. Javascript has multiple key events you can hook into, each with their pros and cons. The easiest would have been to use 'keypress', but then you miss out on a lot of keys (basically only a-z0-9 and a few extras). I used 'keydown', but because the browser landscape with regards to keyboard events is a huge mess, im limiting the allowed keys to a relatively small subset. If you think 'how hard can it be', i invite you to read http://unixpapa.com/js/key.html and weep. And that page is even outdated, as I found opera responses that did not match any of that and conflicted with apple meta keys. So, at least for now, you can use a-z, 0-9, F1-F12, Page Up, Page Down, End, Home, Insert Delete and Num0-9, and all of those combined with Shift/Ctrl/Alt. Yes, this means you cant use / , . ? [ ] ; : ' " etc. The browsers simply return too many permutation differences to support all that. I may be able to support some of those at a later stage. I also replaced the keyboard icon, I redid the help popup, and i have preliminary support for other plugins. But that probably needs a bit more testing. I dont have all available roundcube commands supported yet, thats simply a matter of going through them. And it's pretty easy to create your own commands, so if anyone would like something specific done that can be create in javascript and could be useful to others, by all means tell me. If you have some time, you can get the current alpha at https://github.com/corbosman/keyboard_shortcuts/tree/usersetting Let me know if you find any bugs, or have suggestions, Cor

Roundcube and accessibility
by Thomas Bruederli 06 Jun '14

06 Jun '14

Hello devs I recently started to seriously work on accessibility improvements of the Roundcube UI which has been a long standing issue. As a start, I read through the W3C WCAG 2.0 and WAI-ARIA recommendations. From there, I picked the points that seemed relevant and important for Roundcube. I'm trying to collect all references in our wiki, from which I then want to define some guidelines and best practices for Roundcube developers. See the work-in-progress wiki page here: http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Dev_AccessibilityGuidelines I found it particularly hard to apply the recommendations from WCAG to Roundcube because it's more an application than a website providing contents. But I assume that's where ARIA is meant to jump in. And here's my first question: are there tools available that actually implement these standards and actually make sense of all these aria-* attributes? In a first attempt I started to make keyboard navigation work in the main email view. While not completely finished yet, you should at least be able to tab through all the button elements, operate the message list and the popup menus. Once the message list gains focus (that's not very visible yet but you can see a gray vertical bar on the left of the first row), the arrow keys move the cursor while <space> selects the row and <enter> opens the message. A descriptive block explaining the list navigation shall be added to the page. If that'll be sufficient for screen readers, I'm not very sure about but maybe you guys can give me some guidance here. Or should we finally add checkboxes to be on the safe side? The plan is to finish the mail view first with all the necessary changes and then apply them to other parts of the application once the recommendations are complete. The current state of development takes place in a separate branch of our github repository (dev-accessibility) and a copy is available for testing at: http://demo.roundcube.net/accessibility/ (user credentials are listed on demo.roundcube.net). A major hurdle for me is also the lack of the right tools to verify whether the improvements I added really make sense and will work with the assistive tools out there. I'm currently using the Accessibility Evaluation Toolbar for Firefox but feedback seems rather limited. I'd much appreciate feedback and review from the experts out there on both, the wiki page and the ongoing development as well as general suggestions or lessons one already learned regarding this topic. This is all pretty new to me but hopefully you can share your expertise and experience with us. So feel free to respond here or to extend the wiki page with recommendations and best practices. Many thanks! Thomas

memcached
by Cor Bosman 05 Jun '14

05 Jun '14

Hey devs, why was memcached chosen as a session alternative instead of for instance redis? Memcache is a pretty bad spot for sessions, and if you dont believe me, read what the author of memcache has to say: http://dormando.livejournal.com/495593.html Redis is a much better alternative for sessions, as it's got persistent storage, meaning you can restart a server (lets say after an upgrade), and wont drop your 20.000 connected users. Redis is also actively working on clustering, with alpha code available. Cor
