Does not work with Thunderbird 102 b1 #763

hussamnasir · 2022-06-02T16:42:40Z

Assuming the UI/plugin code is unable to determine the IMAP hostname and username.

This same plugin works fine on Thunderbird 91.

Hi,
when will you release this to the world?
I'm quite interested in this, also willing to test...

thsmi · 2022-07-23T17:26:36Z

when will you release this to the world?

I highly depends on available spare time and the issues I stumble upon. My spare time is currently pretty low thus the development speed is low. But it is free and open software which means everyone can help and contribute and fix bug.

And of course until the WebExtension is fixed you can always use the standalone application. It has no Thunderbird dependency and thus does not break with major Thunderbird releases.

I'm quite interested in this, also willing to test...

Any help is appreciated, you can find the most recent artifact in the pull request at #768

How to can download artifacts for CI builds is described here:
https://github.com/thsmi/sieve/wiki/FAQ---General-Questions#nightly-build-artifacts

stefangweichinger · 2022-07-26T07:57:56Z

Installed the most recent artifact successfully, now the plugin finds the server and shows the sieve-scripts, although editing does not work for me: I get a white window only. I use TB-102.0.3 on Fedora 36, if that is helpful. No complaint, just feedback. Thanks for your work.

abreitf · 2022-08-31T11:49:48Z

Since the artifact is not downloadable anymore, a working WebExtension for Thunderbird 102.2.0 can be built from tree https://github.com/thsmi/sieve and @thsmi's commit e827edc .
I run the following generic steps on Linux:

<get latest npm from https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v18.8.0/>
tar xf node-v18.8.0-linux-x64.tar.xz
export PATH=$(pwd)/node-v18.8.0-linux-x64/bin:$PATH
npm config set cache $(pwd)/node/cache --global

git clone https://github.com/thsmi/sieve
cd sieve

npm install
npm install gulp -g

gulp --tasks
gulp wx:package
gulp wx:package-xpi

ls -l build
... sieve-0.6.1.xpi

Installed as an Add-on in Thunderbird 102.2.0, it successfully connects to the IMAP server now, also edit and save a sieve script looks working.

<use above commit to patch src/wx/api/sieve/SieveAccountsApi.js>

Some off-topic GitHub tips and tricks:

$ cd sieve/
$ curl -Lo foo.patch https://github.com/thsmi/sieve/commit/e827edcd8b0a1fdaf1f4134b0490f1c4629c79f1.patch
$ patch -p1 < foo.patch

But of course, since many seem to do this "just to get the add-on working again", it should be emphasized that building sources from unmerged PR's always assumes one knows what they are doing.

FTR I tried this and it did not work (tb 102.3.0), but using the code from the PR #768 did the trick, so:

here is the xpi I made back then

sieve-0.6.1.xpi.gz

kwisatz · 2022-11-07T12:13:32Z

This still does not work for me on 102.4.0 on Debian 11.
All I get is the dialog with Cancel and Add buttons, but none of them does anything and I actually have to close Thunderbird to get rid of the dialog.

Following @ikarisan's post, I tried on another machine with the same version of Thunderbird and Debian and here I have the exact same phenomenon.

However, on a Debian 10 with Thunderbird 102.3.0, the same .xpi works. I'd really love to supply more information on why it doesn't work for me on Debian 11 with Thunderbird 102.4.0, but the devlog doesn't have anything remotely interesting.

ikarisan · 2022-11-12T18:15:43Z

here is the xpi I made back then

Works for me with TB 102.4.2 (64-Bit, Win10)

omocinteractive · 2022-11-14T11:04:45Z

@douardda Perfect! Worked for me (W11 TB 102.4.2)

kwisatz · 2022-11-14T11:26:54Z

I think the source of my problem might have to do more with my window manager and with how Thunderbird draws modals then with this extension. By pressing a on the keyboard rather than clicking the Add button, I can confirm the installation.
So then just disregard my message, it seems unrelated.

@douardda thanks a lot! Simply executing this on my Mac (12.6.1 (21G217)) created a working xpi for my Thunderbird (102.5.0 (64-bit)).

Here it is for others just in case (the one provided by douardda didn't work for me which is why I build it myself). Unzip and install as usual sieve-0.6.1.xpi.zip.

michaelopdenacker · 2022-11-29T15:59:55Z

Oops, building the plugin manually with the above instructions doesn't work:

Anything wrong with the current version of gulp?

Don't stress the dev. They mentioned somewhere they are really short on time atm. Also, mind they are doing this in their free time. Pay respect to the project by not stressing the dev.

Just in case it helps somebody, I upload my version based on the above build instructions on Debian Sid running with Thunderbird 102.6.0 here:

sieve-0.6.1-build_by_VS.xpi.zip

leegarrett · 2022-12-22T17:49:04Z

As it currently stands with Thunderbird 102.5.0, the dialog as shown above wrongly detects the server to connect to. However, it's also impossible to change it over the "edit settings" dialog. So right now the plugin is not usable at all.

@thsmi AFAICS this only needs a release. Are there any blockers we can help you with?

emmertf · 2022-12-29T10:06:41Z

I made a Dockerfile for convenient building without having to install a specific node version on your system:

FROM node:19-bullseye-slim as build
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/node-app && chown -R node:node /usr/src/node-app
WORKDIR /usr/src/node-app
COPY --chown=node:node . .
USER node
RUN npm install
RUN npm install gulp
RUN ./node_modules/gulp-cli/bin/gulp.js --tasks
RUN ./node_modules/gulp-cli/bin/gulp.js wx:package
RUN ./node_modules/gulp-cli/bin/gulp.js wx:package-xpi

FROM scratch as export
COPY --from=build /usr/src/node-app/build/ .

The only prerequisite is Docker (I used Docker version 20.10.12).

To build, checkout 763-does-not-work-with-thunderbird-102-b1, put the above in a file called Dockerfile and run DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build . --target=export --output out. The result will be in a new folder called out.

Or as a script:

git clone https://github.com/thsmi/sieve thunderbird-extension-sieve.0.6.1
cd thunderbird-extension-sieve.0.6.1
git checkout 763-does-not-work-with-thunderbird-102-b1

cat > Dockerfile <<eof
FROM node:19-bullseye-slim as build
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/node-app && chown -R node:node /usr/src/node-app
WORKDIR /usr/src/node-app
COPY --chown=node:node . .
USER node
RUN npm install
RUN npm install gulp
RUN ./node_modules/gulp-cli/bin/gulp.js --tasks
RUN ./node_modules/gulp-cli/bin/gulp.js wx:package
RUN ./node_modules/gulp-cli/bin/gulp.js wx:package-xpi

FROM scratch as export

guillaume-uH57J9 · 2022-12-30T16:34:48Z

Hi @thsmi, if resource is an issue, consider doing a kickstarter to release the new version of the extension with Thunderbird 102 support.
If you need an example you could look at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jik/rewritten-add-ons-for-mozilla-thunderbirds-next-release/description by @jikamens

I would chip in, hopefully others who commented would be willing to contribute as well.

jikamens · 2022-12-30T16:41:11Z

@thsmi one of the things that resulted from my Kickstarter was the creation of a non-profit organization tasked with supporting Thunderbird add-on development. We still have some money in the bank that we may be able to use to subsidize the development work necessary to port add-ons to the current TB version. If that might help you get this done, or if you are comfortable with another developer getting paid to do the work (our org would not be comfortable paying someone other than the add-on's maintainer to work on the add-on without the maintainer's approval) and there's someone else here would be interested, feel free to reach out (jik@extended-thunder.org) and we'll see if we can work something out.

lmamane · 2022-12-30T17:57:52Z

If money is the issue, I/my employer would gladly participate in a moderate one-time bounty or small regular (monthly/yearly) contribution to a money pool to support development of sieve for Thunderbird.

sieve-0.6.1.xpi.gz

This one worked for me. Ubuntu 18.04 with Thunderbird 102.4.2 (64-bit)

thsmi · 2023-02-04T13:52:29Z

The state of this branch is far away from being ready to be released. There is ton of work to do. The text editor is mostly in an okayish and usable state. The graphical editor is definitely not, the parser and drag and drop are broken and do wired things. Work on this is done in this branch https://github.com/thsmi/sieve/tree/rework-parser. So there is still a long road ahead to an official release.

This project is a one man show, and my time is currently very limited. Thus the priorities are keeping the App alive, then keeping the WebExtension alive and if time is left adding new features.

So there is no ETA when this issue is resolved. If you need a working sieve editor right now then use the standalone app. It is available for all the platforms you get Thunderbird. It is self contained which makes it way less likely to break and it has proven to be way more stable than any Thunderbird plugin ever can and will be...

But this project free and open to everyone. Means everyone can jump in and provide patches and help fixing issues. If someone provides a working and tested patch I am more happy to integrate it...

I wanted to report that the file linked above no longer installs correctly on MacOS for me; using the latest Thunderbird I have tried to install the binary on three separate machines and each time get the error that the Plugin cannot be installed because the file cannot be modified.

NOTE FOR TB 115:

I am mid in testing TB 115. With 115 the Sieve Plugin can not connect to the server. So I need to go back to 112 later. I am no dev to get this changed. Help would be greatly appreciated.

PanderMusubi · 2023-12-04T14:53:51Z

Until this addon has a fix to work in latest Thunderbird, it is possible to edit the sieve file on your server. For testing, this is very useful https://linux.die.net/man/1/sieve-test

Example command is:

sieve-test -e ~/sieve/Accountnamexxx.sieve ~/Maildir/cur/xxxxxxxxxx.Mxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxS=xxxx,W=xxxx:x,S

Whyglobaleyes · 2023-12-04T19:19:41Z

Hi @PanderMusubi,

Thanks for that. It's a good link that will hopefully help others.

I found sieve-connect last weekend, it looks very similar.

For anyone else looking for a solution: the command line tools are ridiculously easy and effective.
