This conversion is trivial because the only configuration information
accessed by dump is that stored in the database (in order to dump
it). We do need to be careful to keep the write lock on the database
to ensure dump consistency.
The main effort is changing from the old argv style config list
iterators to the new more opaque ones provided by the library (and
backed by the database+file config cache).
This will allow transitioning individual subcommands to the new
configuration framework. Eventually when they are all converted we can
remove the notmuch_config_t * argument.
For now, live with the parameter shadowing in some some subcommands;
it will go away when they are converted.
The renaming and extra values will make sense when we start to convert
subcommands to the new configuration framework. It will also avoid
collisions with a new enum for configuration keys to be introduced in
a future commit.
This way if variables defined using unused() macro are actually
used then code will not compile...
- removed unused usage around one argc and one argv since those
were used
- changed one unused (char *argv[]) to unused (char **argv) to
work with modified unused() macro definition
Several of these #defines were not actually used in the notmuch
codebase any longer. And as of GMime 3.0, g_mime_init takes no
arguments, so we can also drop the bogus RFC2047 argument that we were
passing and then #defining away.

This means dropping GMimeCryptoContext and notmuch_config arguments.
All the argument changes are to internal functions, so this is not an
API or ABI break.
We also get to drop the #define for g_mime_3_unused.

Note that we do keep ignoring the gpg_path configuration option,
though, to avoid breakage of existing installations. It is ignored
like any other unknown configuration option, but we at least document
that it is ignored so that people who find it in their legacy configs
can know that it's safe to drop.

Here's the configuration choice for people who want a cleartext index,
but don't want stashed session keys.
Interestingly, this "nostash" decryption policy is actually the same
policy that should be used by "notmuch show" and "notmuch reply",
since they never modify the index or database when they are invoked
with --decrypt.
We take advantage of this parallel to tune the behavior of those
programs so that we're not requesting session keys from GnuPG during
"show" and "reply" that we would then otherwise just throw away.
This new automatic decryption policy should make it possible to
decrypt messages that we have stashed session keys for, without
incurring a call to the user's asymmetric keys.
Future patches in this series will introduce new policies; this merely
readies the way for them.
We also convert --try-decrypt to a keyword argument instead of a boolean.
the command-line interface for indexing (reindex, new, insert) used
--try-decrypt; and the configuration records used index.try_decrypt.
But by comparison with "show" and "reply", there doesn't seem to be
any reason for the "try" prefix.
This changeset adjusts the command-line interface and the
configuration interface.
For the moment, i've left indexopts_{set,get}_try_decrypt alone. The
subsequent changeset will address those.
"notmuch help" doesn't mention "notmuch-emacs-mua" even though we
support it through the try_external_command() mechanism.
In addition, "notmuch help emacs-mua" doesn't work, even though we
ship the appropriate manpage.
This changeset fixes both of these problems.
We have an indexopts structure for manipulating indexing in different
ways, but we also have three command-line invocations that can trigger
indexing: new, insert, and reindex.
This changeset prepares a common parser that these subcommands can
share.
Note: if the deprecated crypto.gpg_path configuration option is set to
anything other than "gpg", we ignore it (and print a warning on
stderr, if built against gmime < 3.0).
At the moment, it's just --try-decrypt, but others will likely follow.
C99 stdbool turned 18 this year. There really is no reason to use our
own, except in the library interface for backward
compatibility. Convert the cli and test binaries to stdbool.
Several changes at once, just to not have to change the same lines
several times over:
- Use designated initializers to initialize opt desc arrays.
- Only initialize the needed fields.
- Remove arg_id (short options) as unused.
- Replace opt_type and output_var with several type safe output
variables, where the output variable being non-NULL determines the
type. Introduce checks to ensure only one is set. The downside is
some waste of const space per argument; this could be saved by
retaining opt_type and using a union, but that's still pretty
verbose.
- Fix some variables due to the type safety. Mostly a good thing, but
leads to some enums being changed to ints. This is pedantically
correct, but somewhat annoying. We could also cast, but that defeats
the purpose a bit.
- Terminate the opt desc arrays using {}.
The output variable type safety and the ability to add new fields for
just some output types or arguments are the big wins. For example, if
we wanted to add a variable to set when the argument is present, we
could do so for just the arguments that need it.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I think this looks nice when
defining the arguments, and reduces some of the verbosity we have
there.
If the given subcommand is not known to notmuch, try to execute
external notmuch-<subcommand> instead. This allows users to have their
own notmuch related tools be run via the notmuch command, not unlike
git does. Also notmuch-emacs-mua will be executable via 'notmuch
emacs-mua'.
By design, this does not allow notmuch's own subcommands to be
overriden using external commands.
Many of the external links found in the notmuch source can be resolved
using https instead of http. This changeset addresses as many as i
could find, without touching the e-mail corpus or expected outputs
found in tests.
The function notmuch_exit_if_unmatched_db_uuid is split from
notmuch_process_shared_options because it needs an open notmuch
database.
There are two exceptional cases in uuid handling.
1) notmuch config and notmuch setup don't currently open the database,
so it doesn't make sense to check the UUID.
2) notmuch compact opens the database inside the library, so we either
need to open the database just to check uuid, or change the API.
In particular this fixes a recently encountered bug where the
"--config" argument to "notmuch setup" is silently ignored, which the
unpleasant consequence of overwriting the users config file.
Unfortunately it seems trickier to support --config globally
The non-trivial changes are in notmuch.c; most of the other changes
consists of blindly inserting two lines into every subcommand.
We call it with NULL at one point anyway, so it needs to work with
NULL. Since the only place we use talloc is right before exec, there
is no harm in always using NULL.
Recognize 'notmuch command --help' at the top level as a special case,
and show help for the command. Note that for simplicity, --help is
only recognized as the first option for the subcommand.
If the top level --help is combined with other options, help
fails. For example:
$ notmuch --version --help
Sorry, --help is not a known command. There's not much I can do to help.
Fix this by adjusting argc and argv appropriately. The help command
ignores argv[0] anyway, so we don't have to set it to "help".
This moves address-related functionality from search command to the
new address command. The implementation shares almost all code and
some command line options.
Options --offset and --limit were intentionally not included in the
address command, because they refer to messages numbers, which users
do not see in the output. This could confuse users because, for
example, they could see more addresses in the output that what was
specified with --limit. This functionality can be correctly
reimplemented for address subcommand later.
Also useless values of --exclude flag were not included in the address
command.
This was inspired by a patch from Jani Nikula.
Apart from the status codes for format mismatches, the non-zero exit
status codes have been arbitrary. Make the cli consistently return
either EXIT_SUCCESS or EXIT_FAILURE.
Previously, the CLI would print a deprecation warning if a client
requested any format version other than the current one. However, if
we add fields that are backwards-compatible, but want clients to be
able to depend on, we need to bump the version, but that doesn't make
the older version deprecated.
Hence, separate out the "minimum active" version and only print a
warning for requests below this version number.

The notmuch insert command reads a message from standard input,
writes it to a Maildir folder, and then incorporates the message into
the notmuch database. Essentially it moves the functionality of
notmuch-deliver into notmuch.
Though it could be used as an alternative to notmuch new, the reason
I want this is to allow my notmuch frontend to add postponed or sent
messages to the mail store and notmuch database, without resorting to
another tool (e.g. notmuch-deliver) nor directly modifying the maildir.
While looked good on paper, its attempted use caused confusion, complexity,
and potential for information leak when passed through wrapper scripts.
For slimmer code and to lessen demand for maintenance/support the set of
commits which added top level --stderr= option is now reverted.
With this option all writes to stderr are redirected to the specified
FILE (or to stdout on case FILE is '-'). This is immediately useful
in emacs interface as some of its exec intefaces do not provide
separation of stdout and stderr.
This allows specifying config file as a top level argument to notmuch,
and generally makes it possible to override config file options in
main(), without having to touch the subcommands.
If the config file does not exist, one will be created for the notmuch
main command and setup and help subcommands. Help is special in this
regard; the config is created just to avoid errors about missing
config, but it will not be saved.
This also makes notmuch config the talloc context for subcommands.
We now have a notmuch_config_is_new() function to query whether a
config was created or not. Change the notmuch_config_open() is_new
parameter into boolean create_new to determine whether the function
should create a new config if one doesn't exist. This reduces the
complexity of the API.
