InMemoryStore

Configures the in-memory cache and lookup store.

This object can be configured from the WebUI under Settings › Storage › In-Memory Store

The InMemoryStore singleton is available via the urn:stalwart:jmap capability.

This is a standard Foo/get method as defined in RFC 8620, Section 5.1.

For singletons, the ids argument should be the literal singleton (or null to return the single instance).

This method requires the sysInMemoryStoreGet permission.

Terminal window
curl -X POST https://mail.example.com/jmap/ \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"methodCalls": [
[
"x:InMemoryStore/get",
{
"ids": [
"singleton"
]
},
"c1"
]
],
"using": [
"urn:ietf:params:jmap:core",
"urn:stalwart:jmap"
]
}'

This is a standard Foo/set method as defined in RFC 8620, Section 5.3.

For singletons, only the update argument with id singleton is accepted; create and destroy arguments are rejected.

This method requires the sysInMemoryStoreUpdate permission.

Terminal window
curl -X POST https://mail.example.com/jmap/ \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"methodCalls": [
[
"x:InMemoryStore/set",
{
"update": {
"singleton": {
"description": "updated value"
}
}
},
"c1"
]
],
"using": [
"urn:ietf:params:jmap:core",
"urn:stalwart:jmap"
]
}'

stalwart-cli wraps the same JMAP calls. See the CLI reference for installation, authentication, and general usage.

Terminal window
stalwart-cli get InMemoryStore
Terminal window
stalwart-cli update InMemoryStore --field description='updated value'
