This issue was converted from https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/DRTRIGON-101. Summary: Enable mail receiving for subster as data source Issue type: New Feature - A new feature of the product, which has yet to be developed. Priority: Major Status: Resolved Assignee: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch> Date: Fri, 16 Sep 2011 10:09:51 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some external data sources and services support E-Mail data exchange. E.g [1] forbids explicitly to parse data, but offers to send them by mail freely (I think [2] has something similar). [1] http://www.xe.com/ict/?basecur=EUR&historical=false&month=9&day=16&year=2011&sort_by=code&image.x=43&image.y=11 [2] http://www.bundesbank.de/zahlungsverkehr/zahlungsverkehr_bankleitzahlen_download.php According to [3] a mail forward for "drtrigon+subster@toolserver.org" was created, now all mail to this address get stored into $HOME/data/subster/mail_inbox and can be parsed by the subster bot (e.g. on daily basis) in order to get the data. [3] https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Mail This mechanism can be used e.g. for [4], [5] (gives just a notice that new data are available) and may be (hopefully) others too. [4] http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:Wechselkursdaten [5] http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:Infobox_Kreditinstitut/DatenDE As mentioned on [3] one could also consider to use something similar (e.g. mail forward to "drtrigon+bot_control@toolserver.org") to remote control the bots via mail... ![][1])) [1]: https://jira.toolserver.org/images/icons/emoticons/wink.gif
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch> Date: Sat, 19 Nov 2011 12:10:56 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Enabled additional feature for XLSX2CSV (openpyxl) conversion in r209.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch> Date: Sat, 19 Nov 2011 12:28:57 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Enable additional feature for PDF2TXT with [1] (PDFMiner), [2] (gfx) or others. Could be problematic thus should be done if needed only! [1] http://www.unixuser.org/~euske/python/pdfminer/index.html [2] http://www.swftools.org/gfx_tutorial.html
------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch> Date: Sat, 03 Dec 2011 11:26:34 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First implementations of feature included in r209 to r218. Used for [1] ([4]) and others (like ITTF) but not yet for [2] ([5]) since there another approach with 'simple' syntax is tested. Additional tool DrTrigonBot subster mail queue created.
