README
EmailReplyParser
EmailReplyParser is a PHP library for parsing plain text email content, based on GitHub's email_reply_parser library written in Ruby.
Installation
The recommended way to install EmailReplyParser is through Composer:
composer require willdurand/email-reply-parser
Usage
Instantiate an EmailParser object and parse your email:
<?php
use EmailReplyParser\Parser\EmailParser;
$email = (new EmailParser())->parse($emailContent);
You get an Email object that contains a set of Fragment objects. The Email
class exposes two methods:
getFragments(): returns all fragments;getVisibleText(): returns a string which represents the content considered as "visible".
The Fragment represents a part of the full email content, and has the
following API:
<?php
$fragment = current($email->getFragments());
$fragment->getContent();
$fragment->isSignature();
$fragment->isQuoted();
$fragment->isHidden();
$fragment->isEmpty();
Alternatively, you can rely on the EmailReplyParser to either parse an email
or get its visible content in a single line of code:
$email = \EmailReplyParser\EmailReplyParser::read($emailContent);
$visibleText = \EmailReplyParser\EmailReplyParser::parseReply($emailContent);
Known Issues
Quoted Headers
Quoted headers aren't picked up if there's an extra line break:
On <date>, <author> wrote:
> blah
Also, they're not picked up if the email client breaks it up into multiple lines. GMail breaks up any lines over 80 characters for you.
On <date>, <author>
wrote:
> blah
The above On ....wrote: can be cleaned up with the following regex:
$fragment_without_date_author = preg_replace(
'/\nOn(.*?)wrote:(.*?)$/si',
'',
$fragment->getContent()
);
Note though that we're search for "on" and "wrote". Therefore, it won't work with other languages.
Possible solution: Remove "[email protected]" lines...
Weird Signatures
Lines starting with - or _ sometimes mark the beginning of
signatures:
Hello
--
Rick
Not everyone follows this convention:
Hello
Mr Rick Olson
Galactic President Superstar Mc Awesomeville
GitHub
**********************DISCLAIMER***********************************
* Note: blah blah blah *
**********************DISCLAIMER***********************************
Strange Quoting
Apparently, prefixing lines with > isn't universal either:
Hello
--
Rick
