@top Excorporate Manual
Excorporate provides Exchange Web Services (EWS) support for Emacs.
If the Exchange server you access is configured to provide EWS
support, then there's an 86% chance that Excorporate will enable you
to retrieve your calendar entries from the comfort of Emacs.
The 14% failure rate is because authenticating against an Exchange
server can be challenging.
Accessing an Exchange server through an HTTPS proxy is possible now that
@uref{https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10} and
@uref{https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=35969} are fixed.
Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication needs more experimentation.
Reports of success or failure of different connection types are
welcome, as are patches to enable more of these access scenarios. See
@pxref{Reporting Bugs}.

@noindent
To report a bug, send an email to @code{bug-gnu-emacs@@gnu.org} using
your favourite email program. Put ``Excorporate'' somewhere in the
subject line, for example: ``Excorporate: Failed to authenticate''.
@node Installation
@chapter Installation
Excorporate works on Emacs versions >= 24.1.
@noindent
Install @code{excorporate} from the GNU ELPA repository:
@code{M-x package-install RET excorporate}
@node Configuration
@chapter Configuration
@noindent
Ideally you won't need to configure Excorporate beyond providing your
account email address. On friendly Exchange setups, Excorporate can
discover the EWS URL automatically.
@noindent
Run:
@code{M-x excorporate}
@noindent
which will prompt you for the Exchange account configuration. Follow
the prompts and if all goes well, you'll see a message in the minibuffer
or in *Messages* saying that the connection is ready. Using the
prompts, you can first try with autodiscovery. If autodiscovery runs
out of URLs to try, re-run @code{excorporate}, saying 'n' to the
autodiscovery attempt, at which point you will be asked for the EWS URL.
@noindent
To save a working configuration, customize
@code{excorporate-configuration}:
@code{M-x customize-variable RET excorporate-configuration}
@noindent
After saving the configuration, try @code{M-x excorporate} again.
@noindent
If neither autodiscovery nor specifying the EWS URL work,
@pxref{Troubleshooting}.
To disconnect:
@code{M-x excorporate-disconnect}
@node Usage
@chapter Usage
@noindent
Excorporate can put entries it retrieves into the Emacs Diary, and use
@code{appt} to remind you a few minutes before a meeting starts. To
enable this support, do:
@code{M-x excorporate-diary-enable}
Excorporate's diary front-end will retrieve today's meetings.
Subsequently @code{appt} will pop up a reminder window several minutes
prior to each meeting.
If you leave Emacs running overnight, at 12:01 AM @code{appt} (via
Excorporate) will retrieve your meetings and display your diary so
that you see the day's events first thing in the morning.
@noindent
Open the calendar with:
@code{M-x calendar}
@noindent
move the cursor to the date you want to see meetings for, and press
`d'. Some time later, asynchronously, a window will pop up containing
events retrieved from the Exchange server in addition to
locally-entered diary events. The events are all sorted by time.
Excorporate also binds `e' in @code{*Calendar*} buffers to
@code{excorporate-calendar-show-day-function} to allow a different
view of retrieved events. By default,
@code{excorporate-calendar-show-day-function} is set to
@code{exco-org-show-day} which displays meetings in a temporary
read-only Org Mode buffer named @code{*Excorporate*}.
In the Org Mode @code{*Excorporate*} buffer, you can run @kbd{M-x
exco-org-decline-meeting-request} to decline a meeting request. To
accept, use (@code{exco-org-accept-meeting-request}) or, to tentatively
accept, invoke (@code{exco-org-tentatively-accept-meeting-request}).
Pass a prefix argument to these functions to omit a reply message.
A meeting is a calendar event to which at least one other person is
invited. To cancel a meeting (or an occurence of a recurring meeting)
that you organized, use @kbd{M-x exco-org-cancel-meeting}.
An appointment is a calendar item that has no invitees. To delete an
appointment that you created, type @kbd{M-x
exco-org-delete-appointment}. With a prefix argument, @kbd{M-x
exco-org-delete-appointment} can be used to force-delete calendar items,
whether they be meetings or appointments. One example where this is
necessary is when ``cancelling'' a meeting with a single invitee, you,
the organizer. The server will reject an attempt to cancel such a
meeting because it refuses to send the organizer a cancellation message.
If you prefer, you can install the @code{calfw} package, and set
@code{excorporate-calendar-show-day-function} to
@code{exco-calfw-show-day}.
@node Troubleshooting
@chapter Troubleshooting
@noindent
First, you'll want to double-check that the Exchange server you're
trying to access provides EWS support. If it doesn't, Excorporate
can't do anything for you. Before asking your Exchange administrator,
check intranet wikis and so forth; other users of non-standard clients
may have already found the EWS URL. This is called the ``EWS
endpoint''. It can be as simple as, e.g.:
@code{https://mail.gnu.org/EWS/Exchange.asmx}
@noindent
First you need to make sure you can access the endpoint.
@noindent
For Exchange Web Services (EWS) which Excorporate uses, you'll have to
determine the EWS endpoint for your Exchange account, call it
@code{ews-url}. It is usually something like:
https://<mail host name>/EWS/Exchange.asmx
@noindent
Excorporate calculates the WSDL URL, call it @code{wsdl-url}, by
replacing the endpoint's last path element with ``Services.wsdl'':
https://<mail host name>/EWS/Services.wsdl
@noindent
Before even attempting Excorporate, you have to make these succeed:
@example
(with-current-buffer
(url-retrieve-synchronously ews-url)
(buffer-string))
@end example
@noindent
When this works, you'll see web page text in *Messages*, containing a
message about having created a service.
@example
(with-current-buffer
(url-retrieve-synchronously wsdl-url)
(buffer-string))
@end example
@noindent
When this works, it will show a bunch of WSDL (XML) in *Messages*.
@noindent
Debug the above URL retrievals with @code{M-:} in an @code{emacs -Q}
run:
@example
(progn
(setq url-debug 1)
(url-retrieve-synchronously URL-STRING)
(dolist (p (seq-filter
(lambda (b) (string-match " *http*" (buffer-name b)))
(buffer-list)))
(message "HTTP result buffer: \"%s\"\n%s"
(buffer-name p)
(with-current-buffer p (buffer-string))))
"check *Messages*")
@end example
@noindent
Beware that HTTP responses can be out-of-order, and that if you set
@code{url-debug} to a number or @code{t}, Emacs may hang for a while if
it attempts to print a very large data structure.
@noindent
Once you're sure the above steps are working, try @code{M-x
excorporate}.
@noindent
The buffer @code{*fsm-debug*} shows @code{excorporate} state
transitions and should provide details of where things went wrong.
@noindent
Also check @code{*Messages*} for anything obvious.
@noindent
If you suspect something wrong with accessing the EWS URL, try setting
@code{url-debug} to t and retry @code{M-x excorporate}, then check the
@code{*URL-DEBUG*} buffer for output.
@noindent
If you suspect NTLM authentication is failing, as a long shot, you
might try setting @code{ntlm-compatibility-level} to 0 and retrying
@code{M-x excorporate}.
@noindent
Excorporate's dependencies implement the tricky elements of
asynchronous Exchange access: a state machine (@code{fsm}), TLS
negotiation (@code{gnutls}), NTLM authentication (@code{ntlm} and
@code{url-http-ntlm}) and SOAP communication (@code{soap-client}).
@cindex hung connection
@cindex stuck connection
@noindent
On some servers, an active, otherwise-working connection may get stuck.
The symptom is the attempted operation will not complete (but Emacs will
not be blocked, because Excorporate is asynchronous). For example
pressing 'e' in the @code{Calendar} produce a new @code{*Excorporate*}
buffer that stays empty for longer than one minute. I haven't been able
to determine the root cause of this behaviour. But you can work around
the issue like this:
@code{M-x list-processes}
Find a line that shows the server connection. There may be multiple
such lines. They will look something like this:
@code{mail.gnu.org -- open -- -- Main (network connection to mail.gnu.org:443}
Put the cursor on that line, and type 'd' to delete the process. The
attempted operation will now complete, usually without needing to retry
it.
@node API Usage
@chapter API Usage
@noindent
As of version 1.0.0, the Excorporate API is declared stable. The
function @code{exco-api-version} will return 0, meaning API version 0.
In the unlikely event that compatibility needs to be broken, the API
version will be incremented.
@noindent
Here are some examples of using the API (application programming
interface) provided by Excorporate.
@noindent
Not all of Excorporate's functionality is exposed as interactive
functions. Here is an example of creating a meeting to which
hacker2@@gnu.org is invited, using a non-interactive function provided by
Excorporate:
@example
@group
(exco-calendar-item-meeting-create
(exco-select-connection-identifier)
"Test meeting 1"
"Hi,\n\nThis is a test meeting 1.\n\nRegards.\n"
(encode-time 0 15 14 23 09 2020)
(encode-time 0 0 15 23 09 2020)
"Online only"
'("hacker2@@gnu.org")
nil
(lambda (identifier response)
(message "%S: %S" identifier response)))
@result{}
;; Printed in *Messages*:
("hacker1@@gnu.org" . "https://mail.gnu.org/EWS/Exchange.asmx"):
(((ResponseMessages
(CreateItemResponseMessage
(ResponseClass . "Success")
(ResponseCode . "NoError")
(Items
(CalendarItem
(ItemId
(Id . "A[...]A==")
(ChangeKey . "D[...]M"))))))))
@end group
@end example
@noindent
The callback is run asychronously after the server responds, so as not
to block Emacs, and the result is what is printed in the
@code{*Messages*} buffer. This example assumes the user has already run
@kbd{M-x excorporate} to create a connection.
@code{exco-select-connection-identifier} will automatically use the sole
connection if only one exists. Excorporate fully supports connecting to
multiple different servers though (see @code{exco-connection-iterate})
so reusable code that calls Excorporate APIs should not assume just one
connection. You can find examples of iterating through multiple
connections in @code{excorporate-diary.el} and
@code{excorporate-org.el}.
@noindent
There is lots of server-side functionality that Excorporate does not
provide high-level non-interactive functions for. Using that
functionality is still possible with the low-level @code{exco-operate}
and @code{exco-operate-synchronously} functions.
@noindent
For example, evaluating this form produces lots of details about the
meeting represented by the ItemId form, including tidbits like the list
of invitees and how they've responded (accepted, declined, tentatively
accepted, unknown). You can find ItemId forms to experiment with in the
PROPERTIES drawer of calendar entries in the interactive Org buffer.

@noindent
Note that this function queries the server synchronously. In other
words, it waits for, and evaluates to, the server's reply. This is nice
when experimenting with the API, but published code should mostly use
the asynchronous calls to avoid blocking Emacs during server operations.
@noindent
Here is a more complicated example that asynchronously queries the
server for availability overlap for hacker1@@gnu.org and
hacker2@@gnu.org, in the America/Toronto time zone. Call
@code{exco-time-zone} to calculate, from Emacs's internal time zone (see
@code{current-time-zone}), the equivalent server time zone string.

This example shows how to create a recurrence in the ``Eastern Standard
Time'' time zone. The @code{exco-operation-arity-nils} call returns a
list of nils with a length matching the number of arguments that the
@code{CreateItem} operation takes. Arguments other than the first
(``request'') argument may be needed in the future to use more
complicated server functionality, but for now they can all be left
@code{nil}.

interface, make a new one. Excorporate functions are written to work
with older Emacs versions, back to Emacs 24.1.
