web-dev0521 cd18cfab79 feat(connector): implement Outlook data source connector (issue #15332) (#15333)
### What problem does this PR solve?

Closes #15332.

RAGFlow can index Gmail and generic IMAP mailboxes but had no native
connector for Outlook / Microsoft 365 mail. Organisations on Microsoft
365 had no way to bring mailbox content into a knowledge base through
Microsoft Graph.

This PR adds a net-new Outlook data source that:

- Authenticates against Microsoft Graph with the same MSAL
client-credentials flow already used by the SharePoint and Teams
  connectors (no new auth primitives).
- Pages over `/users/{id}/mailFolders/{folder}/messages/delta` per
mailbox and persists `@odata.deltaLink` values in
`OutlookCheckpoint.delta_links`, so incremental syncs only fetch changed
messages.
- Supports two scoping modes:
- **Tenant-wide** (default): enumerates every user in the tenant via
`/users` and syncs each mailbox. Requires `User.Read.All`.
- **Targeted**: when `user_ids` is provided (comma-separated UPNs or
object IDs), only those mailboxes are synced. `User.Read.All` is not
needed in this mode.
- Lets the caller pick the mail folder (`inbox`, `sentitems`, `archive`,
...). Defaults to `inbox`.
- Maps each message to a `Document` shaped after the Gmail connector:
one `TextSection` carrying `From/To/Cc/Subject` headers + body, with
HTML bodies stripped to text inline (no extra dependency).
- Surfaces typed errors on the validation probe:
401 → `ConnectorMissingCredentialError`, 403 →
`InsufficientPermissionsError` (with `Mail.Read` / `User.Read.All`
hint), 404 on a configured mailbox → `ConnectorValidationError`, 5xx →
`UnexpectedValidationError`.
- Skips messages flagged `@removed` by the delta semantics and messages
whose `receivedDateTime` is older than `poll_range_start`.

#### Files

| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `common/data_source/outlook_connector.py` | **New** —
`OutlookConnector` (`CheckpointedConnectorWithPermSync` +
`SlimConnectorWithPermSync`) + `OutlookCheckpoint` + tiny `_strip_html`
helper. |
| `common/data_source/config.py` | `DocumentSource.OUTLOOK = "outlook"`.
|
| `common/constants.py` | `FileSource.OUTLOOK = "outlook"`. |
| `common/data_source/__init__.py` | Export `OutlookConnector`. |
| `rag/svr/sync_data_source.py` | `Outlook(SyncBase)` with `batch_size`
normalisation, CSV/list parsing of `user_ids`; registered in
`func_factory`. |
| `web/src/pages/user-setting/data-source/constant/index.tsx` |
`DataSourceKey.OUTLOOK`, visibility map (`syncDeletedFiles: true`), info
entry, form fields (tenant_id, client_id, client_secret, folder,
user_ids, batch_size), default values. |
| `web/src/locales/en.ts`, `web/src/locales/zh.ts` |
`outlookDescription` + 5 tooltip keys (EN + ZH). |
| `test/unit_test/data_source/test_outlook_connector_unit.py` | **New**
— 19 unit tests (`p1`/`p2`/`p3`) covering auth, validation (tenant-wide
vs specific user vs error paths), checkpoint helpers, user enumeration
pagination, message filtering, HTML body stripping. |

#### Required Azure AD permissions

- `Mail.Read` (Application, admin-granted) — always.
- `User.Read.All` (Application, admin-granted) — only when `user_ids` is
left blank so the connector can enumerate mailboxes.

#### Out of scope

- **Attachment indexing.** The current connector emits message body +
headers; binary attachments are flagged via `metadata.has_attachments`
but not pulled. Adding attachment hydration is straightforward but
scoped out per the issue's "decide whether attachments are indexed in
the first version" note.
- **Delegated (per-user) OAuth.** The connector uses app-only
credentials, consistent with the SharePoint / Teams precedent in this
codebase.

(1). Deploy RAGFlow services and images

https://ragflow.io/docs/build_docker_image

(2). Configure the required environment for testing

Install Python dependencies (including test dependencies):

uv sync --python 3.13 --only-group test --no-default-groups --frozen

Activate the environment:

source .venv/bin/activate

Install SDK:

uv pip install sdk/python 

Modify the .env file: Add the following code:

COMPOSE_PROFILES=${COMPOSE_PROFILES},tei-cpu
TEI_MODEL=BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5
RAGFLOW_IMAGE=infiniflow/ragflow:v0.25.6 #Replace with the image you are using

Start the containerwait two minutes:

docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up -d


(3). Test Elasticsearch

a) Run sdk tests against Elasticsearch:

export HTTP_API_TEST_LEVEL=p2
export HOST_ADDRESS=http://127.0.0.1:9380  # Ensure that this port is the API port mapped to your localhost
pytest -s --tb=short --level=${HTTP_API_TEST_LEVEL} test/testcases/test_sdk_api 

b) Run http api tests against Elasticsearch:

pytest -s --tb=short --level=${HTTP_API_TEST_LEVEL} test/testcases/test_http_api 


(4). Test Infinity

Modify the .env file:

DOC_ENGINE=${DOC_ENGINE:-infinity}

Start the container:

docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml down -v 
docker compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml up -d

a) Run sdk tests against Infinity:

DOC_ENGINE=infinity pytest -s --tb=short --level=${HTTP_API_TEST_LEVEL} test/testcases/test_sdk_api 

b) Run http api tests against Infinity:

DOC_ENGINE=infinity pytest -s --tb=short --level=${HTTP_API_TEST_LEVEL} test/testcases/test_http_api
