Does anyone have an example of using zend.to in a scripted manner, rather than through the web browser? I can think of a number of occasions where it would be useful to be able to generate a zend.to drop-off request (to have someone drop a file off for me) without me needing to log in to the UI and do it. I suspect it can be done quite readily with curl, but I wonder if someone has already tackled this and would be willing to share the output?

I don't remember exactly what they called it, and 30 seconds of Googling hasn't turned up a download location for their code, but it's essentially a stripped-down UI that lets you (the admin) hard-code the recipient info, so people can't screw up the file transfer. This feature was dropped from ZendTo, but we've been forward-porting it for years, as some of our departments depend on it for various reasons. Using it requires some modifications to ZendTo, to allow uploads without the CAPTCHA verification. (By which I mean: we have been too lazy to implement the CAPTCHA in our custom dropoff interface; it was implemented before ZendTo had a CAPTCHA.) It wouldn't be possible to use this directly from a script (e.g., curl -X POST ...), as it still uses JavaScript, but you could possibly use it as a starting point to add a similar API interface. If there's interest, I can post some sanitized git diffs and/or some documentation about how it works. ~Keith On 4/5/19 11:29 AM, Neil via ZendTo wrote: > I have had a quick look through recent archives, and I can?t see > anything on this, but apologies if it has been covered already. > > Does anyone have an example of using zend.to in a scripted manner, > rather than through the web browser? > > I can think of a number of occasions where it would be useful to be > able to generate a zend.to drop-off request (to have someone drop a > file off for me) without me needing to log in to the UI and do it.

How about I just tweak the template a bit so that all of that type of "list of drop-offs" page opens up a new tab instead? Is there any reason or situation where the current behaviour would be *better* than opening the drop-off in a new tab? Changing all of them is trivial.

It then shows you exactly what commands it would run to do the upgrade of the preferences.php and zendto.conf files. Cheers, Jules.

The idea of the prefix is pretty simple, basically I would give you the "[ZendTo]" string (as an initial default value) in a "Subject" box in the new drop-off form. Whatever you end up putting in there gets used instead of [ZendTo] at the start of the email subject lines. However...... If you request a drop-off, you get to supply the whole Subject line for the email to the person you want to send you their files. Ideally, that same Subject line would be used in all notifications etc about that drop-off. But they have entered the *whole* Subject line, not just the prefix to it. If I use their whole Subject line as a prefix, it's going to look weird. So what do I do for the Subject prefix, when it was created as a result of a request which had the entire Subject line supplied? I clearly can't ask the person sending the request to supply 2 Subject entries ? both the current whole Subject line *and* the prefix to use ? as that would confuse the hell out of them.

URL: From Jules at Zend.To Mon Apr 29 16:43:36 2019 From: Jules at Zend.To (Jules Field) Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2019 16:43:36 +0100 Subject: [ZendTo] New beta 5.18-1 released (new features!) Message-ID: <7d290f7f-99d5-94d7-c46a-89297cfc966d@Zend.To> Afternoon folks! I have just released a new beta 5.18-1. This is mostly a "feature" release, but does also include fixes for any bugs I have been told about. New features this time around: * Users can remove unwanted addresses from their address book. * Lists of drop-offs now indicate encrypted drop-offs and picked-up drop-offs. * Selecting a drop-off from a list opens it in a new tab. * Sending a request for a drop-off is now scriptable. * upgrade and upgrade_preferences_php handle authenticator settings (particular LDAP!) much better. See the download and installation instructions for the beta at *https://zend.to/beta.php* Please try it out and let me know as soon as possible if you find any problems. And also tell me what you think of the new features and how they could be improved! Here is the full Change Log: - Autocomplete list of address book matches when entering recipients now has an "X" button at the end of each line which deletes that entry. - Lists of drop-offs now show if the drop-off has been picked up, and if it was encrypted. - Selecting a drop-off from any list of drop-offs now shows it in a new tab. - New command /opt/zendto/bin/autorequest will generate a request for a drop-off from a script. Run it with no parameters to see the usage. If you want to use this, you will need to create a user specifically for the automation to use, and set it in the new 'automationUsers' setting in preferences.php. The autorequest gives you a return code back and a bit of JSON to say what happened. - "upgrade_preferences_php", and hence also "upgrade", have been improved to fix problems for people using LDAP but not AD, as they highlighted a lacking in the intelligence of the tool. - Lists of drop-offs show a tooltip explaining the "Picked up" column. - Log clean virus scans of new drop-offs as well as viruses and errors. - Logo image should display better now if it's a bit too tall. - Security fix highlighted by Michael Radford. All users should upgrade. - Fixed string formatting bug when a user tries to send a drop-off request with a Subject: line that is too long. Thanks for Tobias Tafart for this fix! - Installer for RHEL8 is now working, except for ClamAV which needs to come from EPEL but there isn't an EPEL archive for RHEL8/CentOS8 yet. Don't want to use the 7 archive as I'm hoping the clamd problems will get fixed.

I.e., if I was requesting a dropoff I?d put in ?My appropriate subject?. The person that is actually doing the dropoff would see that, and probably won?t think twice about it. Then, when the outgoing upload notification is actually complete, Zendto can prepend the system supplied prefix [Zendto] or [Whatever] and send that. I don?t think folks are in the habit of hand coding prefixes, so it?s unlikely one would end up with dual prefixes. Maybe there?s coding issues with that that make it difficult? Anyway, my tuppence worth? ...Kevin -- Kevin Miller Network/email Administrator, CBJ MIS Dept. 155 South Seward Street Juneau, Alaska 99801 Phone: (907) 586-0242, Fax: (907) 586-4588 Registered Linux User No: 307357 From: ZendTo On Behalf Of Jules Field via ZendTo Sent: Monday, April 29, 2019 6:19 AM To: ZendTo Users Cc: Jules Field Subject: Re: [ZendTo] [Feature Request custom string in subject per DropOff] Folks, I'm having a think about this one. The idea of the prefix is pretty simple, basically I would give you the "[ZendTo]" string (as an initial default value) in a "Subject" box in the new drop-off form. Whatever you end up putting in there gets used instead of [ZendTo] at the start of the email subject lines. However...... If you request a drop-off, you get to supply the whole Subject line for the email to the person you want to send you their files. Ideally, that same Subject line would be used in all notifications etc about that drop-off. But they have entered the *whole* Subject line, not just the prefix to it. If I use their whole Subject line as a prefix, it's going to look weird. So what do I do for the Subject prefix, when it was created as a result of a request which had the entire Subject line supplied? I clearly can't ask the person sending the request to supply 2 Subject entries ? both the current whole Subject line *and* the prefix to use ? as that would confuse the hell out of them. Any ideas please? Cheers, Jules.

They asked if it would be possible to add a custom field when sending a DropOff that results in a custom text in all ZendTo email concerning this specific DropOff. Example current: [ZENDTO] One of the recipients has picked up your drop-off! Example requested: [ZENDTO] CUSTOM_STRING One of the recipients has picked up your drop-off! I asked a little bit about the purpose of their request and they told me that project teams sort their email by subject and consequently keep the project name (CUSTOM_STRING) in every subject of their emails concerning that specific project. So later they could sort by project name (CUSTOM_STRING) within Outlook to be able to verify when they sent a specific DropOff. Question: Is it possible to implement such a feature? I know that I could handcraft it but I don't want to make big changes to the source and always have to keep track of them when upgrading. I am currently not on the latest version of ZendTo, so if such a feature is maybe already present in the latest version, feel free to tell me. Thanks in advance.

Perhaps present it to the user not as part of the subject. Perhaps label it as ?Message ID?. I would assume displaying would be a setting pref file. So this way, If (isset($messageID)) then $subject = [Zendto] . $messageID . $subject; else $subject = [Zendto] . $subject; I know that?s not even close to proper code, but I hope you get the gist. For me, the [ZendTo] can stay or be replaced. I?m guessing anyone else who would use the feature has another ticketing or request system they are using that generates the custom string they need to use. For me, even the term request ID would work. My thought behind it is to making merging these mails into another system easier to automate. It would also make it easier to display in email in a conversation view. Anyone using the feature would have a internal custom name for the custom string. Then again, long day and I?ll stop rambling.

All the other Subject lines generated are hard-coded (apart from translations). If you are thinking of either changing the [ZendTo] prefix to some other string, or adding something between the [ZendTo] prefix and the rest of the string, where and when is that going to be set? The "new dropoff" form needs to gain an extra "Message ID" (or whatever) box so people can put in their magic string. Are you saying the "send a request" form needs to gain it too? (And presumably if the answer to that is "yes", the "new dropoff" form would pre-fill the "Message ID" value from what was given in the request. And if that is the case, should the customer doing the dropoff be able to change the "Message ID" value at that point? I would suggest not.) I think we're all thinking about variations on either ticketing systems or people with multiple projects, where they need some magic value in the Subject line of *every* email message sent by ZendTo so that they can all be tracked and filed automatically. Cheers, Jules.

The visibility of this whole "Message ID" feature would be on/off controlled by preferences.php. I would suggest off by default? Thoughts? The actual name of the "Message ID" field would be customisable: as you say, different organisations will have different names for it, but basically it's some form of ticket number or project codename. If it's set, I insert it between the [ZendTo] tag and the normal email subject line. In the case of making a request for a drop-off, the (internal) user is asked for the Subject line of the email to send. Should I also ask for the "Message ID" string as part of the request form?

My guess would be that users are more used to ignoring leading prefixes on Subject lines, as that is where most ticketing systems put them. But I might be wrong! I'm just not sure it warrants yet another bit of extra complexity and extra configuration to make its position selectable. Would a prefix do? Just after the [ZendTo] prefix? Cheers, Jules.

I noticed that in the preferences.php file, the REGEX for username and email address do not match. I've looked at the code, and I was trying to find (unsucessfully) if there is some type of filtering or conversion being done, and the actual lookup against AD uses a modifed usernameRegexp instead of the raw username as the user typed in the login screen. The usernameRegexp does not seem to allow the apostrophe. I'm still looking, but if anybody has a suggestion or an explanation why the username cannot use an apostrophe, I'd appreciate it. Or do I simply change the username regex to allow for the apostrophe? Regards, Guy // Regular expression defining a valid username for the Login page. // Usually no need to change this. 'usernameRegexp' => '/^([a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\_\.\-\@\\\]*)$/i', // regular expression defining a valid email address for anyone. // Usually no need to change this. // Must look like /^(user)\@(domain)$/ 'validEmailRegexp' => '/^([a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\.\_\-\+\&\']*)\@([a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\_\-\.]+)$/i', ________________________________ Please consider the environment before printing or forwarding this email.

I.e. I was thinking that [Zendto] would be a variable set in preferneces.php which could be customized. Something like: ?Zendto_prefix? => ?[Zendto]?, which folks could simply change to what they wanted or leave it as the default. I didn?t really explain it very clearly. We?re probably the outlier, but the powers that be upstream of me decided we?d call our system ?fileshare? rather than Zendto. So in my case I?d change the prefix itself if such was available. I can see the use case for what Travis, et. al. are proposing as well? ...Kevin -- Kevin Miller Network/email Administrator, CBJ MIS Dept. 155 South Seward Street Juneau, Alaska 99801 Phone: (907) 586-0242, Fax: (907) 586-4588 Registered Linux User No: 307357 From: ZendTo On Behalf Of Jules Field via ZendTo Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2019 12:35 AM To: ZendTo Users Cc: Jules Field ; Kevin Miller Subject: Re: [ZendTo] [Feature Request custom string in subject per DropOff] Kevin, But in the case of a request, as much as possible is pre-filled for the customer dropping off files. All the other Subject lines generated are hard-coded (apart from translations). If you are thinking of either changing the [ZendTo] prefix to some other string, or adding something between the [ZendTo] prefix and the rest of the string, where and when is that going to be set? The "new dropoff" form needs to gain an extra "Message ID" (or whatever) box so people can put in their magic string. Are you saying the "send a request" form needs to gain it too? (And presumably if the answer to that is "yes", the "new dropoff" form would pre-fill the "Message ID" value from what was given in the request. And if that is the case, should the customer doing the dropoff be able to change the "Message ID" value at that point? I would suggest not.) I think we're all thinking about variations on either ticketing systems or people with multiple projects, where they need some magic value in the Subject line of *every* email message sent by ZendTo so that they can all be tracked and filed automatically. Cheers, Jules.

I.e., if I was requesting a dropoff I?d put in ?My appropriate subject?. The person that is actually doing the dropoff would see that, and probably won?t think twice about it. Then, when the outgoing upload notification is actually complete, Zendto can prepend the system supplied prefix [Zendto] or [Whatever] and send that. I don?t think folks are in the habit of hand coding prefixes, so it?s unlikely one would end up with dual prefixes. Maybe there?s coding issues with that that make it difficult? Anyway, my tuppence worth? ...Kevin -- Kevin Miller Network/email Administrator, CBJ MIS Dept. 155 South Seward Street Juneau, Alaska 99801 Phone: (907) 586-0242, Fax: (907) 586-4588 Registered Linux User No: 307357 From: ZendTo On Behalf Of Jules Field via ZendTo Sent: Monday, April 29, 2019 6:19 AM To: ZendTo Users Cc: Jules Field Subject: Re: [ZendTo] [Feature Request custom string in subject per DropOff] Folks, I'm having a think about this one. The idea of the prefix is pretty simple, basically I would give you the "[ZendTo]" string (as an initial default value) in a "Subject" box in the new drop-off form. Whatever you end up putting in there gets used instead of [ZendTo] at the start of the email subject lines. However...... If you request a drop-off, you get to supply the whole Subject line for the email to the person you want to send you their files. Ideally, that same Subject line would be used in all notifications etc about that drop-off. But they have entered the *whole* Subject line, not just the prefix to it. If I use their whole Subject line as a prefix, it's going to look weird. So what do I do for the Subject prefix, when it was created as a result of a request which had the entire Subject line supplied? I clearly can't ask the person sending the request to supply 2 Subject entries ? both the current whole Subject line *and* the prefix to use ? as that would confuse the hell out of them. Any ideas please? Cheers, Jules.

They asked if it would be possible to add a custom field when sending a DropOff that results in a custom text in all ZendTo email concerning this specific DropOff. Example current: [ZENDTO] One of the recipients has picked up your drop-off! Example requested: [ZENDTO] CUSTOM_STRING One of the recipients has picked up your drop-off! I asked a little bit about the purpose of their request and they told me that project teams sort their email by subject and consequently keep the project name (CUSTOM_STRING) in every subject of their emails concerning that specific project. So later they could sort by project name (CUSTOM_STRING) within Outlook to be able to verify when they sent a specific DropOff. Question: Is it possible to implement such a feature? I know that I could handcraft it but I don't want to make big changes to the source and always have to keep track of them when upgrading. I am currently not on the latest version of ZendTo, so if such a feature is maybe already present in the latest version, feel free to tell me. Thanks in advance.
