Roundcube Framework
===================

INTRODUCTION
------------
The Roundcube Framework is the basic library used for the Roundcube Webmail
application. It is an extract of classes providing the core functionality for
an email system. They can be used individually or as package for the following
tasks:

- IMAP mailbox access with optional caching
- MIME message handling
- Email message creation and sending through SMTP
- General caching utilities using the local database
- Database abstraction using PDO
- VCard parsing and writing

REQUIREMENTS
------------
PHP Version 7.3 or greater including:
   - PCRE, DOM, JSON, Session, Sockets, OpenSSL, Mbstring, Filter, Ctype, Intl (required)
   - PHP PDO with driver for either MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle or SQLite (required)
   - Iconv, Zip, Fileinfo, Exif (recommended)
   - LDAP for LDAP addressbook support (optional)

INSTALLATION
------------
Copy all files of this directory to your project or install it in the default
include_path directory of your webserver. Some classes of the framework require
external libraries. See composer.json-dist for the list of required packages.

USAGE
-----
The Roundcube Framework provides a bootstrapping file which registers an
autoloader and sets up the environment necessary for the Roundcube classes.
In order to make use of the framework, simply include the bootstrap.php file
from this directory in your application and start using the classes by simply
instantiating them.

If you wanna use more complex functionality like IMAP access with database
caching or plugins, the rcube singleton helps you loading the necessary files:

```php
<?php

define('RCUBE_CONFIG_DIR',  '<path-to-config-directory>');
define('RCUBE_PLUGINS_DIR', '<path-to-roundcube-plugins-directory');

require_once '<path-to-roundcube-framework/bootstrap.php';

$rcube = rcube::get_instance(rcube::INIT_WITH_DB | rcube::INIT_WITH_PLUGINS);
$imap = $rcube->get_storage();

// do cool stuff here...

?>
```
