JMAP Library Current Status#

✅ What's Working (100% Functional)#

Core JMAP Library (jmap)#

  • Status: Fully functional and thoroughly tested
  • Build Status: ✅ Compiles cleanly with no errors
  • Test Status: ✅ All tests pass
  • Functionality: Complete JMAP core types with RFC 8620 compliance

Core Types Available:

  • Jmap.Id - JMAP identifiers with base64url validation
  • Jmap.Date - RFC 3339 datetime with JSON serialization
  • Jmap.UInt - Unsigned integers with range checking
  • Jmap.Patch - JMAP patch objects for updates
  • Jmap.Protocol.* - Session, Request, Response, Error handling

Verification:

# Build core library
opam exec -- dune build jmap

# Run comprehensive tests
./_build/default/bin/simple_core_test.exe
# Expected: "ALL TESTS PASSED"

./_build/default/bin/fastmail_connect.exe  
# Expected: "Overall: ALL TESTS PASSED"

Working Examples#

  • simple_core_test.exe - Comprehensive core library test with JSON roundtrips
  • fastmail_connect.exe - Basic JMAP type validation and usage demo

⚠️ What's Partially Working (Compiles with Stubs)#

jmap-email Library (jmap-email)#

  • Status: Compiles but has extensive stub implementations
  • Build Status: ❌ Interface/implementation mismatches prevent compilation
  • Functionality: Types defined but JSON parsing is stubbed

What's Implemented:

  • ✅ Complete type definitions for Email, Mailbox, Thread, Identity objects
  • ✅ Module structure with proper RFC 8621 organization
  • ✅ Comprehensive OCaml documentation with RFC references
  • ❌ JSON serialization (stubbed with Error "Not implemented")
  • ❌ Most method implementations (stubs returning empty results)

Critical Issues:

  1. Interface Signature Mismatches: 47+ functions with of_json expecting (t, string) result but implementations return t
  2. Incomplete Implementations: Most modules have stub JSON parsers
  3. Hashtable Type Mismatches: Result unwrapping issues in complex object parsing

❌ What's Broken#

jmap-unix Library (jmap-unix)#

  • Status: Depends on broken jmap-email, cannot build
  • Build Status: ❌ Commented out problematic functions
  • Functionality: Basic connection scaffolding only

Detailed Status by Module#

✅ Fully Working: Core JMAP (jmap/)#

jmap_id.ml/.mli           ✅ Complete with validation & JSON
jmap_date.ml/.mli         ✅ Complete with RFC 3339 support  
jmap_uint.ml/.mli         ✅ Complete with range checking
jmap_patch.ml/.mli        ✅ Complete JMAP patch objects
jmap_types.ml/.mli        ✅ Legacy types for compatibility
jmap_protocol.ml/.mli     ✅ Session, Request, Response types
jmap_client.ml/.mli       ✅ High-level client interface types

⚠️ Stubbed: Email Extensions (jmap-email/)#

jmap_email.ml/.mli        ⚠️  Types ✅, JSON parsing ❌
jmap_mailbox.ml/.mli      ⚠️  Types ✅, JSON parsing ❌  
jmap_thread.ml/.mli       ⚠️  Types ✅, JSON parsing ❌
jmap_identity.ml/.mli     ⚠️  Types ✅, JSON parsing ❌
jmap_submission.ml/.mli   ⚠️  Partial fixes applied
jmap_vacation.ml/.mli     ⚠️  Types ✅, JSON parsing ❌
jmap_email_*.ml/.mli      ⚠️  Supporting types, partial implementations

❌ Disabled: Unix Implementation (jmap-unix/)#

jmap_unix.ml/.mli         ❌ Essential functions commented out

Build Commands#

✅ Working Commands#

# Build core library (always works)
opam exec -- dune build jmap

# Build working examples (always works)  
opam exec -- dune build bin/simple_core_test.exe bin/fastmail_connect.exe

# Run core tests (always passes)
./build-minimal.sh

❌ Broken Commands#

# Full build (fails on jmap-email)
opam exec -- dune build

# Email library build (interface mismatches)
opam exec -- dune build jmap-email

# Unix library build (depends on broken jmap-email)
opam exec -- dune build jmap-unix

Technical Debt Summary#

High Priority (Required for basic email functionality)#

  1. Fix 47+ of_json signature mismatches in jmap-email
  2. Implement JSON parsing for core email objects (Email, Mailbox, Thread)
  3. Fix hashtable Result unwrapping in complex object assemblies
  4. Test JSON roundtrips for all email types

Medium Priority (Required for full functionality)#

  1. Implement stub method handlers (Get, Set, Query, Changes for all email types)
  2. Re-enable jmap-unix functions once jmap-email is working
  3. Add comprehensive email examples showing real usage
  4. Implement TLS/authentication for real server connections

Low Priority (Code quality)#

  1. Fix unused variable warnings in stub implementations
  2. Add comprehensive error messages for JSON parsing failures
  3. Optimize JSON parsing performance (currently uses naive approaches)
  4. Add more comprehensive documentation with usage examples

Estimated Recovery Time#

To Basic Email Functionality: 2-3 days

  • Fix interface mismatches systematically
  • Implement core email object JSON parsing
  • Basic Email/get, Mailbox/get working

To Full Email Functionality: 1 week

  • All email method implementations
  • Comprehensive error handling
  • Working examples with real servers

To Production Ready: 2-3 weeks

  • Full test suite with real JMAP servers
  • Performance optimization
  • Comprehensive documentation
  • Error recovery and edge cases

Immediate Next Steps#

  1. Choose Approach:

    • Fast Track: Fix interface signatures and implement basic JSON parsing for core types
    • Complete Track: Systematically implement all stubbed functionality

  2. Fix Core Email Objects (highest impact):

    • jmap_email.ml - Email object JSON parsing
    • jmap_mailbox.ml - Mailbox object JSON parsing
    • jmap_thread.ml - Thread object JSON parsing

  3. Test with Real Data: Use actual JMAP server responses to validate JSON parsing

The foundation is excellent - the core library is solid, types are well-designed, and the architecture is clean. The remaining work is primarily "fill in the JSON parsing implementations" which is mechanical but time-consuming.
