The notmuch 'binary'
|
||
|
|
====================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The cnotmuch module provides *notmuch*, a python reimplementation of the standard notmuch binary for two purposes: first, to allow running the standard notmuch testsuite over the cnotmuch bindings (for correctness and performance testing) and second, to give some examples as to how to use cnotmuch. 'Notmuch' provides a command line interface to your mail database.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A standard install via `easy_install cnotmuch` will not install the notmuch binary, however it is available in the `cnotmuch source code repository <http://bitbucket.org/spaetz/cnotmuch/src/>`_.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is invoked with the following pattern: `notmuch <command> [args...]`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Where <command> and [args...] are as follows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**setup** Interactively setup notmuch for first use.
|
||
|
|
This has not yet been implemented, and will probably not be
|
||
|
|
implemented unless someone puts in the effort.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**new** [--verbose]
|
||
|
|
Find and import new messages to the notmuch database.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has not been implemented yet. We cheat by calling
|
||
|
|
the regular "notmuch" binary (which must be in your path
|
||
|
|
somewhere).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**search** [options...] <search-terms> [...] Search for messages matching the given search terms.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has been implemented but for the `--format` and
|
||
|
|
`--sort` options.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**show** <search-terms> [...]
|
||
|
|
Show all messages matching the search terms.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has been partially implemented, we show a stub for each
|
||
|
|
found message, but do not output the full message body yet.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**count** <search-terms> [...]
|
||
|
|
Count messages matching the search terms.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has been fully implemented.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**reply** [options...] <search-terms> [...]
|
||
|
|
Construct a reply template for a set of messages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has not been implemented yet.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**tag** +<tag>|-<tag> [...] [--] <search-terms> [...]
|
||
|
|
Add/remove tags for all messages matching the search terms.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has been fully implemented.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**dump** [<filename>]
|
||
|
|
Create a plain-text dump of the tags for each message.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has been fully implemented.
|
||
|
|
**restore** <filename>
|
||
|
|
Restore the tags from the given dump file (see 'dump').
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has been fully implemented.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**search-tags** [<search-terms> [...] ]
|
||
|
|
List all tags found in the database or matching messages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has been fully implemented.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**help** [<command>]
|
||
|
|
This message, or more detailed help for the named command.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The 'help' page has been implemented, help for single
|
||
|
|
commands are missing though. Patches are welcome.
