NoMethodError: undefined method `message' about ruby-gmail HOT 9 OPEN

I am having the same problem under ruby 1.9.3

from ruby-gmail.

Can you post a code example? And can you upgrade and try the newest gem version?

from ruby-gmail.

I am also having this issue on Ruby 1.9.3 using 0.3.0.

folder = "/home/refriedchicken/downloads"
Gmail.new('username','password') do |g|
g.inbox.emails(:unread, :from => "[email protected]").each do |e|
if !e.message.attachments.empty?
e.message.save_attachments_to(folder)
e.mark(:read)
e.archive!
end
end
end

NoMethodError: undefined method message' for #<Mail::Message:0x0000000273f800> from /home/refriedchicken/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p374/gems/mail-2.5.3/lib/mail/message.rb:1289:inmethod_missing'

Hi,

I solved with code below. The ruby version is ruby 1.9.2p290 (2011-07-09 revision 32553) [x86_64-darwin11.2.0]

File.open(File.join("imgs", file.filename), "w+b", 0644 ) { |f| f.write file.body.decoded }

Thank's

I am too face the same problem. I have using ruby 2.0.0-p247 and ruby-gmail-0.3.0.
Any work around?

I got the same problem, it appears the save_attachments_to method doesnt exist or has been deprecated by the mail gem. I was able to handle my attachments like so

message.attachments.each do |attachment|
File.open("/home/rcho/Downloads/#{attachment.filename}", "w+b", 0644) { |f| f.write attachment.body.decoded }
end

Seems that in version 0.3.0 author made method 'message' private. At master I see that this method is public, so I assume that it was done mistakenly. For fast fixing this we can use send:
g.inbox.emails(:unread, :from => "[email protected]").each do |e|
e.send(:message).save_attachments_to(folder)
end

from ruby-gmail.

@rcho's method doesn't work for me, which makes sense since it's still relying on the message method. I had no better results using emails.send(:message).save_attachments_to(folder). I get undefined method `save_attachments_to' for #Mail::Message:0x00000101469608

from ruby-gmail.

@Dreyfuzz @dolgishev I've merged a PR that updated the README. Can you try to save the attachments manually?

The #save_attachments_to method was very out of date and the new example should work.
