Recipes
=======

## dovecot::default

Installs and configures Dovecot.

## dovecot::user

Creates the dovecot system user. Used by the default recipe.

## dovecot::conf_files

Generates all the configuration files. Used by the default recipe.

## dovecot::packages

Installs the required packages. Used by the default recipe.

## dovecot::service

Configures the Dovecot service. Used by the default recipe.

Usage Examples
==============

## Including in a Cookbook Recipe

You can simply include it in a recipe:

```ruby
# from a recipe
include_recipe 'dovecot'
```

Don't forget to include the `dovecot` cookbook as a dependency in the metadata.

```ruby
# metadata.rb
[...]

depends 'dovecot'
```

## Including in the Run List

Another alternative is to include the default recipe in your Run List.

```json
{
  "name": "mail.onddo.com",
  [...]
  "run_list": [
    [...]
    "recipe[dovecot]"
  ]
}
```

## Authentication Database Examples

Authentication database attributes, inside passdb or usedb hash values, can contain both arrays or hashes.

Supported auths are the following: `checkpassword`, `deny`, `ldap`, `master`, `passwdfile`, `sql`, `system` and `vpopmail`.

```ruby
node.default['dovecot']['auth']['checkpassword'] = {
  'passdb' => { # hash
    'driver' => 'checkpassword',
    'args' => '/usr/bin/checkpassword',
  },
  'userdb' => {
    'driver' => 'prefetch',
  },
}
```

```ruby
node.default['dovecot']['auth']['system']['passdb'] = [ # array
  {
    # without driver
    'args' => 'dovecot',
  },
  {
    'driver' => 'passwd',
    'args' => '',
  },
  {
    'driver' => 'shadow',
    'args' => '',
  },
  {
    'driver' => 'bsdauth',
    'args' => '',
  },
]
```

## Dictionary Quota SQL Example

```ruby
node.default['dovecot']['conf']['dict_sql']['maps'] = [
  {
    'pattern' => 'priv/quota/storage',
    'table' => 'quota',
    'username_field' => 'username',
    'value_field' => 'bytes',
  },
  {
    'pattern' => 'priv/quota/messages',
    'table' => 'quota',
    'username_field' => 'username',
    'value_field' => 'messages',
  },
  {
    'pattern' => 'shared/expire/$user/$mailbox',
    'table' => 'expires',
    'value_field' => 'expire_stamp',
    'fields' => {
      'username' => '$user',
      'mailbox' => '$mailbox',
    },
  },
]
```

## Namespaces Example

The `['namespaces']` attribute is an array, which could conaint both array or hash values.

```ruby
node.default['dovecot']['namespaces'] = [
  {
    'separator' => '/',
    'prefix' => '"#mbox/"',
    'location' => 'mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u',
    'inbox' => true,
    'hidden' => true,
    'list' => false,
  }, {
    'separator' => '/',
    'prefix' => '',
    'location' => 'maildir:~/Maildir',
  }, { # this requires Dovecot >= 2.1
    'name' => 'inbox',
    'separator' => '/',
    'prefix' => '',
    'inbox' => true,
    'mailboxes' => {
      'Drafts' => {
        'special_use' => '\Drafts',
      },
      'Junk' => {
        'special_use' => '\Junk',
      },
      'Trash' => {
        'special_use' => '\Trash',
      },
      'Sent' => {
        'special_use' => '\Sent',
      },
      'Sent Messages' => {
        'special_use' => '\Sent',
      },
      'virtual/All' => {
        'special_use' => '\All',
      },
      'virtual/Flagged' => {
        'special_use' => '\All',
      },
    },
  },
]
```

## Plugins Examples

Plugin attribute values should be of type hash.

Supported plugins are the following: `mail_log`, `acl` and `quota`.

### Mail Log Plugin Example

```ruby
node.default['dovecot']['plugins']['mail_log'] = {
  'mail_log_events' => 'delete undelete expunge copy mailbox_delete mailbox_rename',
  'mail_log_fields' => 'uid box msgid size'
}
```

### Sieve Plugin Example

```ruby
node.default['dovecot']['plugins']['sieve'] = {
  'sieve' => '~/.dovecot.sieve',
  'sieve_dir' => '~/sieve',
}
```

## Protocols Example

Protocol attribute values should be of type hash.

Supported protocols are the following: `lda`, `imap`, `lmtp`, `sieve` and `pop3`.

```ruby
node.default['dovecot']['protocols']['lda'] = {
  'mail_plugins' => [ '$mail_plugins' ],
}
```

## Service Examples

The `['services']` attribute is a hash. Each service attribute should be a hash. But the `['listeners']` subkey could contain both a hash and an array.

Inside this `listeners` key, you should name each listener with the format *PROTOCOL:NAME*. Allowed protocols are `fifo`, `unix` and `inet`.

Supported services are the following: `director`, `imap-login`, `pop3-login`, `lmtp`, `imap`, `pop3`, `auth`, `auth-worker`, `dict`, `tcpwrap`, `managesieve-login` and `managesieve`.

### Director Service Example

```ruby
node.default['dovecot']['services']['director']['listeners'] = [
  { 'unix:login/director' => {
      'mode' => '0666',
  } },
  { 'fifo:login/proxy-notify' => {
      'mode' => '0666',
  } },
  { 'unix:director-userdb' => {
      'mode' => '0666',
   } },
  { 'inet' => {
      'port' => '5432',
  } },
]
```

### Imap-login Service Example

```ruby
node.default['dovecot']['services']['imap-login'] = {
  'listeners' => [
    { 'inet:imap' => {
     'port' => 143,
    } },
    { 'inet:imaps' => {
      'port' => 993,
      'ssl' => true,
    } },
  ],
  'service_count' => 1,
  'process_min_avail' => 0,
  'vsz_limit' => '64M',
}
```
