In the new upcoming release of Code Crawler a new bunch of features where will released.
The Team Management section of the tool has started to work last night and I’m really confident to be able to include new features within next week.
In Code Crawler units of code are rappresented and individually marked as “functionalities”.
As you can see in the screenshot below, each functionality has its own folder and IO structure.
The “Emails” functionality relies on a xml data storage file which expose the place where informations like smpt server, smtp username, server port, and other personal user settings are stored.
1: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
2: <CodeCrawlerFunctionality>
3: <EmailReports>
4: <ServerSettings>
5: <smtpServer>value</smtpServer>
6: <smtpUsername>value</smtpUsername>
7: <smtpPassword>value</smtpPassword>
8: <serverport>25</serverport>
9: <securessl>0</securessl>
10: </ServerSettings>
11: <EmailOptions>
12: <HighPriorityByDefault>0</HighPriorityByDefault>
13: <userEmail>value@value.com</userEmail>
14: </EmailOptions>
15: </EmailReports>
16: </CodeCrawlerFunctionality>
CC will read this values and set the all the relevant variables just a bit before the email is sent, so you can change smtp server, and all other settings “on the fly”.
1: /// <summary>
2: /// Read the content of the /Functionalities/Emails/Settings/EmailSettings.xml file
3: /// </summary>
4: public void ReadUserProfile()
5: {
6: XmlTextReader settingsReader = new XmlTextReader(EmailSettingsFilePath);
7: while (settingsReader.Read())
8: {
9: XmlNodeType nType = settingsReader.NodeType;
10: if (nType == XmlNodeType.Element)
11: {
12: switch (settingsReader.Name.ToLower())
13: {
14: #region Read And Set Variables
15: case "smtpserver":
16: {
17: smtpserver = settingsReader.ReadElementContentAsString();
18: break;
19: }
20:
21: case "useremail":
22: {
23: useremailaddress = settingsReader.ReadElementContentAsString();
24: break;
25: }
26:
27: case "smtpusername":
28: {
29: username = settingsReader.ReadElementContentAsString();
30: break;
31: }
32:
33: case "smtppassword":
34: {
35: password = settingsReader.ReadElementContentAsString();
36: break;
37: }
38:
39: case "securessl":
40: {
41: isSecureSSL = settingsReader.ReadElementContentAsBoolean();
42: break;
43: }
44:
45: case "highprioritybydefault":
46: {
47: isMessageHighPriorityByDefault = settingsReader.ReadElementContentAsBoolean();
48: break;
49: }
50:
51: case "serverport":
52: {
53: serverport = settingsReader.ReadElementContentAsInt();
54: break;
55: }
56: #endregion
57: }
58: }
59: }
60: }
As you can see there’s still some work on the UI but the window is pretty clear.
If the specified server is working and all the information supplied are correct CC will send a pre-formatted and stiled email with the report attached. CC supports all smtp servers with or without SSL support. Each Email teamplate is based on a xslt template, company logos or rebranded teamplates can be used at any time.
The next functionality is Review Manager.
Review Manager (also knows as Calendar in the development), share the Outgoing smtp server settings with the “Emails” functionality, I need feedbacks on this please email or even comment here what settings would you like to send or plan.
Thanks!
