Templates

You can descript the form of your news title or news body.

A very simple example

Title:

Automatic news

=> the title is always "Automatic news"

A simple example

Title:

{Subject}

=> Your title is replaced with the subject.

Combination of very simple and simple example

Title:

Automatic news: {Subject}

=> Your title is a combination of the static text: "Automatic news: " and the dynamic subject part.

A simple example with a special tag

Body:

{body}

=> Your body is replaced with the mail text body. You have three body options:

• "bodyHtml" returns the HTML text of the email (if available)
• "bodyPlain" returns the plain text of the email (if available)
• "body" returns the HTML text of the email, if available; otherwise, the plain text.

A stronger example with replacement

You can manipulate the content of the replacement.

Title:

{Subject pattern="^\[spam] (.*)$" replacement="$1"}

=> Example set the title with the mail subject without the start word "[spam]".

HINT: The replacement rule will ignore if the pattern does not matched. In this example: When your mail subject has not a spam marker, the news title has the original subject.

Filter rules

The filter rules are defined in a JSON format. When the regex rule (set) matches, the task creates a news from the mail and mark this mails as "readed".

{
    "Subject": "[regex]",
    "body": "[regex]"
}

[regex] is a placeholder for a regular expression.

The keys are mail header keys or one of these special keys:

• "bodyHtml" returns the HTML text of the email (if available)
• "bodyPlain" returns the plain text of the email (if available)
• "body" returns the HTML text of the email, if available; otherwise, the plain text.

Category rules

The category rules are defined in a JSON format. When a regex rule (set) matches, the news is added with the specified category.

{
   "[categoryUid]": {
       "Subject": "[regex]",
       "body": "[regex]"
   }
}

[categoryUid] is a placeholder for an integer and the category identifier. [regex] is a placeholder for a regular expression.

The keys are mail header keys or one of these special keys:

• "bodyHtml" returns the HTML text of the email (if available)
• "bodyPlain" returns the plain text of the email (if available)
• "body" returns the HTML text of the email, if available; otherwise, the plain text.
