Overview

An IMAP sequence set is a set of message sequence numbers or unique identifier numbers (“UIDs”). It contains numbers and ranges of numbers. The numbers are all non-zero unsigned 32-bit integers and one special value ("*") that represents the largest value in the mailbox.

Certain types of IMAP responses will contain a SequenceSet, for example the data for a "MODIFIED" ResponseCode. Some IMAP commands may receive a SequenceSet as an argument, for example #search, #fetch, and #store.

Creating sequence sets

.new may receive a single optional argument: a non-zero 32 bit unsigned integer, a range, a sequence-set formatted string, another SequenceSet, a Set (containing only numbers or *), or an Array containing any of these (array inputs may be nested).

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(1)
set.valid_string  #=> "1"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(1..100)
set.valid_string  #=> "1:100"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(1...100)
set.valid_string  #=> "1:99"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new([1, 2, 5..])
set.valid_string  #=> "1:2,5:*"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new("1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024")
set.valid_string  #=> "1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(1, 2, 3..7, 5, 6..10, 2048, 1024)
set.valid_string  #=> "1:10,55,1024:2048"

.new with no arguments creates an empty sequence set. Note that an empty sequence set is invalid in the IMAP grammar.

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new
set.empty?        #=> true
set.valid?        #=> false
set.valid_string  #!> raises DataFormatError
set << 1..10
set.empty?        #=> false
set.valid?        #=> true
set.valid_string  #=> "1:10"

Using .new with another SequenceSet input behaves the same as calling #dup on the other set. The input’s #string will be preserved.

input = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new("1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024")
copy  = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(input)
input.valid_string  #=> "1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024"
copy.valid_string   #=> "1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024"
copy2 = input.dup   # same as calling new with a SequenceSet input
copy ==     input   #=> true,  same set membership
copy.eql?   input   #=> true,  same string value
copy.equal? input   #=> false, different objects

copy.normalize!
copy.valid_string   #=> "1:10,1024,2048"
copy ==   input     #=> true,  same set membership
copy.eql? input     #=> false, different string value

copy << 999
copy.valid_string   #=> "1:10,999,1024,2048"
copy ==   input     #=> false, different set membership
copy.eql? input     #=> false, different string value

Use Net::IMAP::SequenceSet() to coerce a single (optional) input. A SequenceSet input is returned without duplication, even when frozen.

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet()
set.string   #=> nil
set.frozen?  #=> false

# String order is preserved
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet("1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024")
set.valid_string  #=> "1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024"
set.frozen?       #=> false

# Other inputs are normalized
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet([1, 2, [3..7, 5], 6..10, 2048, 1024])
set.valid_string  #=> "1:10,55,1024:2048"
set.frozen?       #=> false

unfrozen = set
frozen   = set.dup.freeze
unfrozen.equal? Net::IMAP::SequenceSet(unfrozen)  #=> true
frozen.equal?   Net::IMAP::SequenceSet(frozen)    #=> true

Use .[] to coerce one or more arguments into a valid frozen SequenceSet. A valid frozen SequenceSet is returned directly, without allocating a new object. .[] will not create an invalid (empty) set.

Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[]     #!> raises ArgumentError
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[nil]  #!> raises DataFormatError
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[""]   #!> raises DataFormatError

# String order is preserved
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024"]
set.valid_string  #=> "1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024"
set.frozen?       #=> true

# Other inputs are normalized
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[1, 2, [3..7, 5], 6..10, 2048, 1024]
set.valid_string  #=> "1:10,55,1024:2048"
set.frozen?       #=> true

frozen   = set
unfrozen = set.dup
frozen.equal?   Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[frozen]    #=> true
unfrozen.equal? Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[unfrozen]  #=> false

Objects which respond to #to_sequence_set (such as SearchResult and ThreadMember) can be coerced to a SequenceSet with .new, .try_convert, .[], or SequenceSet.

search = imap.uid_search(["SUBJECT", "hello", "NOT", "SEEN"])
seqset = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet(search) - already_fetched
fetch  = imap.uid_fetch(seqset, "FAST")

Ordered and Normalized sets

Sometimes the order of the set’s members is significant, such as with the ESORT, CONTEXT=SORT, and UIDPLUS extensions. So, when a sequence set is created from a single string (such as by the parser), that #string representation is preserved. Assigning a string with #string= or #replace will also preserve that string. Use #each_entry, #entries, or #each_ordered_number to enumerate the entries in their #string order. Hash equality (using #eql?) is based on the string representation.

Internally, SequenceSet uses a normalized uint32 set representation which sorts and de-duplicates all numbers and coalesces adjacent or overlapping entries. Many methods use this sorted set representation for O(lg n) searches. Use #each_element, #elements, #each_range, #ranges, #each_number, or #numbers to enumerate the set in sorted order. Basic object equality (using #==) is based on set membership, without regard to #entry order or #string normalization.

Most modification methods reset #string to its #normalized form, so that #entries and #elements are identical. Use #append to preserve #entries order while modifying a set.

Using *

IMAP sequence sets may contain a special value "*", which represents the largest number in use. From seq-number in RFC9051 §9:

In the case of message sequence numbers, it is the number of messages in a non-empty mailbox. In the case of unique identifiers, it is the unique identifier of the last message in the mailbox or, if the mailbox is empty, the mailbox’s current UIDNEXT value.

When creating a SequenceSet, * may be input as -1, "*", :*, an endless range, or a range ending in -1. When converting to #elements, #ranges, or #numbers, it will output as either :* or an endless range. For example:

Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["1,3,*"].to_a      #=> [1, 3, :*]
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["1,234:*"].to_a    #=> [1, 234..]
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[1234..-1].to_a     #=> [1234..]
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[1234..].to_a       #=> [1234..]

Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[1234..].to_s       #=> "1234:*"
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[1234..-1].to_s     #=> "1234:*"

Use #limit to convert "*" to a maximum value. When a range includes "*", the maximum value will always be matched:

Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["9999:*"].limit(max: 25)
#=> Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["25"]

Surprising * behavior

When a set includes *, some methods may have surprising behavior.

For example, #complement treats * as its own number. This way, the #intersection of a set and its #complement will always be empty. And * is sorted as greater than any other number in the set. This is not how an IMAP server interprets the set: it will convert * to the number of messages in the mailbox, the UID of the last message in the mailbox, or UIDNEXT, as appropriate. Several methods have an argument for how * should be interpreted.

But, for example, this means that there may be overlap between a set and its complement after #limit is applied to each:

~Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["*"]  == Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[1..(2**32-1)]
~Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[1..5] == Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["6:*"]

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[1..5]
(set & ~set).empty? => true

(set.limit(max: 4) & (~set).limit(max: 4)).to_a => [4]

When counting the number of numbers in a set, * will be counted except when UINT32_MAX is also in the set:

UINT32_MAX = 2**32 - 1
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["*"].count                   => 1
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[1..UINT32_MAX - 1, :*].count => UINT32_MAX

Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["1:*"].count                 => UINT32_MAX
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[UINT32_MAX, :*].count        => 1
Net::IMAP::SequenceSet[UINT32_MAX..].count          => 1

.new(input = nil) ⇒ SequenceSet

Create a new SequenceSet object from input, which may be another SequenceSet, an ::Net::IMAP formatted sequence-set string, a non-zero 32 bit unsigned integer, a range, :*, a Set of numbers or *, an object that responds to #to_sequence_set (such as SearchResult) or an Array of these (array inputs may be nested).

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(1)
set.valid_string  #=> "1"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(1..100)
set.valid_string  #=> "1:100"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(1...100)
set.valid_string  #=> "1:99"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new([1, 2, 5..])
set.valid_string  #=> "1:2,5:*"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new("1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024")
set.valid_string  #=> "1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024"
set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(1, 2, 3..7, 5, 6..10, 2048, 1024)
set.valid_string  #=> "1:10,55,1024:2048"

With no arguments (or nil) creates an empty sequence set. Note that an empty sequence set is invalid in the IMAP grammar.

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new
set.empty?        #=> true
set.valid?        #=> false
set.valid_string  #!> raises DataFormatError
set << 1..10
set.empty?        #=> false
set.valid?        #=> true
set.valid_string  #=> "1:10"

When input is a SequenceSet, .new behaves the same as calling #dup on that other set. The input’s #string will be preserved.

input = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new("1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024")
copy  = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet.new(input)
input.valid_string  #=> "1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024"
copy.valid_string   #=> "1,2,3:7,5,6:10,2048,1024"
copy2 = input.dup   # same as calling new with a SequenceSet input
copy ==     input   #=> true,  same set membership
copy.eql?   input   #=> true,  same string value
copy.equal? input   #=> false, different objects

copy.normalize!
copy.valid_string   #=> "1:10,1024,2048"
copy ==   input     #=> true,  same set membership
copy.eql? input     #=> false, different string value

copy << 999
copy.valid_string   #=> "1:10,999,1024,2048"
copy ==   input     #=> false, different set membership
copy.eql? input     #=> false, different string value

Alternative set creation methods

  • .[] returns a frozen validated (non-empty) SequenceSet, without allocating a new object when the input is already a valid frozen SequenceSet.

  • Net::IMAP::SequenceSet() coerces an input to SequenceSet, without allocating a new object when the input is already a SequenceSet.

  • .try_convert calls #to_sequence_set on inputs that support it and returns nil for inputs that don’t.

  • .empty and .full both return frozen singleton sets which can be combined with set operations (#|, #&, #^, #-, etc) to make new sets.

Class Method Details

.[](*inputs) ⇒ valid frozen sequence set

Returns a frozen SequenceSet, constructed from inputs.

When only a single valid frozen SequenceSet is given, that same set is returned.

An empty SequenceSet is invalid and will raise a DataFormatError.

Use .new to create a mutable or empty SequenceSet.

end

.empty

Returns a frozen empty set singleton. Note that valid IMAP sequence sets cannot be empty, so this set is invalid.

.try_convert(obj) ⇒ sequence set?

If obj is a SequenceSet, returns obj. If obj responds_to #to_sequence_set, calls obj.to_sequence_set and returns the result. Otherwise returns nil.

If obj.to_sequence_set doesn’t return a SequenceSet, an exception is raised.

#[](index) ⇒ Integer, ... #slice(index) ⇒ Integer, ... #[](start, length) ⇒ sequence set? #slice(start, length) ⇒ sequence set? #[](range) ⇒ sequence set? #slice(range) ⇒ sequence set?
Also known as: #slice

Returns a number or a subset from the sorted set, without modifying the set.

When an Integer argument index is given, the number at offset index in the sorted set is returned:

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["10:15,20:23,26"]
set[0]   #=> 10
set[5]   #=> 15
set[10]  #=> 26

If index is negative, it counts relative to the end of the sorted set:

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["10:15,20:23,26"]
set[-1]  #=> 26
set[-3]  #=> 22
set[-6]  #=> 15

If index is out of range, nil is returned.

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["10:15,20:23,26"]
set[11]  #=> nil
set[-12] #=> nil

The result is based on the sorted and de-duplicated set, not on the ordered #entries in #string.

set = Net::IMAP::SequenceSet["12,20:23,11:16,21"]
set[0]   #=> 11

#+(other) ⇒ sequence set #|(other) ⇒ sequence set #union(other) ⇒ sequence set
Also known as: #+, #union

Returns a new sequence set that has every number in the other object added.

other may be any object that would be accepted by .new.
