A small patch that adds a configurable strip_signature_regex

[steverweber@…]

Find attached... A small patch that adds a configurable strip_signature_regex

We have been using email2trac for some time and been maintaining a private copy with a small change.. I feel it would be best if it was merged into your version of the.. email2trac.py.in

The attached file is in .py format and differs a little because I just need the simple script..

Anyways it allows email2trac.ini to have a.. strip_signature_regex = ^{-----Original Message-----$|}-- $|^--$

it adds

    def setup_parameters(self):
        if self.parameters.umask:
            os.umask(self.parameters.umask)
----------
        if not self.parameters.strip_signature_regex:
            self.parameters.strip_signature_regex = '^-----Original Message-----$|^-- $|^--$'
----------

and

    def strip_signature(self, text):
        """
        Strip signature from message, inspired by Mailman software
        """
        self.logger.debug('function strip_signature')

        body = []
        for line in text.splitlines():
----------
            if re.match(self.parameters.strip_signature_regex, line):
----------
                break
            body.append(line)

please merge something along those lines into the trunk/master.. I probably should have compiled the regex instead of using it like i did wasting cpu... but you should get the idea..

Thanks

How can I use the patch?

[anonymous]

First get the maintainer of this project to merge the change. Then in your email2trac.conf add a strip_signature_regex like.

[DEFAULT]
## strip_signature_regex - requires custom email2trac
strip_signature_regex: ^-----Original Message-----$|^-- $|^--$|^--~$|^.*, Library Systems Support wrote:$
project: /trac/projects/libdev
........
