Download and Source

Installation

While this is a wiki macro, it is in the new macro format, which is actually a single-file plugin. As of 0.11, old style macros (those installed in the wiki-macros folder and only consisting of an execute function) are no longer supported. This means that this macro needs to be installed in the global plugin directory, or in the trac environment's plugins directory.

  • Copy emailprocessor.py into the environment's plugins directory
  • Add the following to the environment's trac.ini
    [components]
    emailprocessor.emailmacro = enabled
    
  • Restart your server

Example

Invocation:

 {{{
 #!email
 <email stuff here>
 }}}

To wrap to a specified length, the line immediately following the invocation should contain cols: followed by the number of columns at wich we wrap. For example:

 {{{
 #!email
 cols: 40
 <email stuff here>
 }}}

It is important that the cols: starts at the beginning of the line and that only a number follows it.
