I've found several unanswered questions in the mail list archives with
similar questions about looping through attachments.
I saw several times it suggested to loop through attachments using
something like
while ( my $AttachObj = $self->TransactionObj->Attachments->Next ) {
# do something with $AttachObj
}

This code doesn't work because ->Next doesn't exist for the Attachment
object. Is there any other way to do this? Sorry if this is incredibly
simple to do. I'm not familiar with Perl and try to poke around and see
if I can figure it out.

Take a look at the code I put in my question "Faking {$Transaction->Content()}." I still do not have an answer to my own question but it might be useful to you: see what I've done to locate all attachments. The multipart/mixed part AFAIK is just the list of all the other attachments or something like that. In other words, ignore it. About env-vars.txt, is it a plain text file or, say, a Windows one (with CRLF)? If that is the case, you might be able to select it (see the if statements I did for ideas) and print it out.

Subject: Re: [rt-users] how to access content for an attachment in scrip?

Using the rt console, I can see that there are actually 3 attachments,
even though the I only sent one and the web ui only shows 1, so I'm sure
the problem is that I'm selecting the wrong attachment.

Here's what I see from the console.
./rt show 2075/attachments
19671: (Unnamed) (multipart/mixed / 0b),
19672: (Unnamed) (text/plain / 305b),
19673: env-vars.txt (application/octet-stream / 16.8k)


The attachment I would like will always be named env-vars.txt. How can I
get the contents for the attachment name env-vars.txt?

Thanks

John

Subject: [rt-users] how to access content for an attachment in scrip?

Hi. I'm trying to customize the scrip shown at the bottom of this wiki
page: http://requesttracker.wikia.com/wiki/AutoCloseOnNagiosRecoveryMessages

I know there is an extension that does merging, but I want to do some
other things with the Nagios variables I have attached as a plain text
file to the ticket that Nagios creates in RT.
The first few lines in the scrip attempt to get the content of an
attachment and put it in a variable named $content. I suspected that
this was not working, so I added a debug line to dump the contents of
$contents and it is empty.

Here is the scrip code.
my $T_Obj = $self->TicketObj;
my $AttachObj = $self->TransactionObj->Attachments->First;
my $content = $AttachObj->Content;
$RT::Logger->debug("Contents: " . $content);


The log output shows:
[Wed Jul 6 19:47:49 2011] [debug]: Contents: ((eval 3934):4)


The attachment is attached to the ticket. I can see it in the web ui and
can open and read it with no problems. Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?


Thanks


John
