发送电子邮件

您可以通过两种方式使用 Gmail API 发送电子邮件：

您可以使用 messages.send 方法直接发送该数据。
您可以使用 drafts.send 方法从草稿发送消息。

电子邮件会以 base64url 编码的字符串形式发送到消息资源的 raw 属性中。发送电子邮件的概要工作流程如下：

以某种方便的方式创建电子邮件内容，并将其编码为 base64url 字符串。
创建一个新的消息资源，并将其 raw 属性设置为您刚刚创建的 base64url 字符串。
调用 messages.send 或 drafts.send（如果发送草稿）即可发送消息。

此工作流的详细信息可能会因您选择的客户端库和编程语言而异。

创建消息

Gmail API 要求 MIME 电子邮件邮件符合 RFC 2822 规范，并编码为 base64url 字符串。许多编程语言都提供了一些库或实用程序，可简化 MIME 邮件的创建和编码过程。以下代码示例演示了如何使用适用于不同语言的 Google API 客户端库创建 MIME 邮件。

Java

借助 javax.mail.internet 软件包中的 MimeMessage 类，您可以大大简化电子邮件消息的创建。以下示例展示了如何创建电子邮件邮件（包括标头）：

gmail/snippets/src/main/java/CreateEmail.java

在 GitHub 上查看

import java.util.Properties;
import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.Session;
import javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;

/* Class to demonstrate the use of Gmail Create Email API  */
public class CreateEmail {

  /**
   * Create a MimeMessage using the parameters provided.
   *
   * @param toEmailAddress   email address of the receiver
   * @param fromEmailAddress email address of the sender, the mailbox account
   * @param subject          subject of the email
   * @param bodyText         body text of the email
   * @return the MimeMessage to be used to send email
   * @throws MessagingException - if a wrongly formatted address is encountered.
   */
  public static MimeMessage createEmail(String toEmailAddress,
                                        String fromEmailAddress,
                                        String subject,
                                        String bodyText)
      throws MessagingException {
    Properties props = new Properties();
    Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);

    MimeMessage email = new MimeMessage(session);

    email.setFrom(new InternetAddress(fromEmailAddress));
    email.addRecipient(javax.mail.Message.RecipientType.TO,
        new InternetAddress(toEmailAddress));
    email.setSubject(subject);
    email.setText(bodyText);
    return email;
  }
}

下一步是编码 MimeMessage、实例化 Message 对象，并将 base64url 编码的消息字符串设置为 raw 属性的值。

gmail/snippets/src/main/java/CreateMessage.java

在 GitHub 上查看

import com.google.api.services.gmail.model.Message;
import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.mail.MessagingException;
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMessage;
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64;

/* Class to demonstrate the use of Gmail Create Message API */
public class CreateMessage {

  /**
   * Create a message from an email.
   *
   * @param emailContent Email to be set to raw of message
   * @return a message containing a base64url encoded email
   * @throws IOException        - if service account credentials file not found.
   * @throws MessagingException - if a wrongly formatted address is encountered.
   */
  public static Message createMessageWithEmail(MimeMessage emailContent)
      throws MessagingException, IOException {
    ByteArrayOutputStream buffer = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    emailContent.writeTo(buffer);
    byte[] bytes = buffer.toByteArray();
    String encodedEmail = Base64.encodeBase64URLSafeString(bytes);
    Message message = new Message();
    message.setRaw(encodedEmail);
    return message;
  }
}

Python

以下代码示例演示了如何创建 MIME 消息、编码为 base64url 字符串，并将其分配给 Message 资源的 raw 字段：

import base64
from email.message import EmailMessage

  creds, _ = google.auth.default()

  try:
    # create gmail api client
    service = build("gmail", "v1", credentials=creds)

    message = EmailMessage()

    message.set_content("This is automated draft mail")

  except HttpError as error:
    print(f"An error occurred: {error}")
    draft = None

  return draft

创建包含附件的邮件

创建带附件的邮件与创建任何其他邮件类似，但将文件作为多部分 MIME 邮件上传的过程取决于编程语言。以下代码示例演示了创建包含附件的多部分 MIME 邮件的可能方式。

Java
