.. OfflineImap API documentation
.. currentmodule:: offlineimap
Welcome to :mod:`offlineimaps`'s documentation
==============================================
Within :mod:`offlineimap`, the classes :class:`OfflineImap` provides the high-level functionality. The rest of the classes should usually not needed to be touched by the user. Email repositories are represented by a :class:`offlineimap.repository.Base.BaseRepository` or derivatives (see :mod:`offlineimap.repository` for details). A folder within a repository is represented by a :class:`offlineimap.folder.Base.BaseFolder` or any derivative from :mod:`offlineimap.folder`.
This page contains the main API overview of OfflineImap |release|.
OfflineImap can be imported as::
from offlineimap import OfflineImap
The file ``SubmittingPatches.rst`` in the source distribution documents a
number of resources and conventions you may find useful. It will eventually
be merged into the main documentation.
.. TODO: merge SubmittingPatches.rst to the main documentation

:exc:`OfflineImapError` -- A Notmuch execution error
--------------------------------------------------------
.. autoexception:: offlineimap.error.OfflineImapError
:members:
This execption inherits directly from :exc:`Exception` and is raised
on errors during the offlineimap execution. It has an attribute
`severity` that denotes the severity level of the error.
