Add a custom value range processor to enable date and time searches of
the form date:since..until, where "since" and "until" are expressions
understood by the previously added date/time parser, to restrict the
results to messages within a particular time range (based on the Date:
header).
If "since" or "until" describes date/time at an accuracy of days or
less, the values are rounded according to the accuracy, towards past
for "since" and towards future for "until". For example,
date:november..yesterday would match from the beginning of November
until the end of yesterday. Expressions such as date:today..today
means since the beginning of today until the end of today.
Open-ended ranges are supported (since Xapian 1.2.1), i.e. you can
specify date:..until or date:since.. to not limit the start or end
date, respectively.
CAVEATS:
Xapian does not support spaces in range expressions. You can replace
the spaces with '_', or (in most cases) '-', or (in some cases) leave
the spaces out altogether.
Entering date:expr without ".." (for example date:yesterday) will not
work as you might expect. You can achieve the expected result by
duplicating the expr both sides of ".." (for example
date:yesterday..yesterday).
Open-ended ranges won't work with pre-1.2.1 Xapian, but they don't
produce an error either.

Fix the COERCE_STATUS macro to handle _internal_error being declared
as void function.
Note that the function _internal_error does not return. Evaluating to
NOTMUCH_STATUS_SUCCESS is done purely to appease the compiler.

The API documentation (notmuch.h) states that the parameter may be NULL,
but the implementation only checked the current element, potentially

Previously, notmuch new only synchronized maildir flags to tags for
files with a maildir "info" part. Since messages in new/ don't have
an info part, notmuch would ignore them for flag-to-tag
synchronization.
This patch makes notmuch consider messages in new/ to be legitimate
maildir messages that simply have no maildir flags set. The most
visible effect of this is that such messages now automatically get the
unread tag.
Previously, we synchronized flags to tags for any message that looked
like it had maildir flags in its file name, regardless of whether it
was in a maildir-like directory structure. This was asymmetric with
tag-to-flag synchronization, which only applied to messages in
directories named new/ and cur/ (introduced by 95dd5fe5).
This change makes our interpretation stricter and addresses this
asymmetry by only synchronizing flags to tags for messages in
directories named new/ or cur/. It also prepares us to treat messages
in new/ as maildir messages, even though they lack maildir flags.
This way notmuch_message_maildir_flags_to_tags can call it. It makes
more sense for this to be just above all of the maildir
synchronization code rather than mixed in the middle.
Previously, if passed a filename with a directory that did not exist
in the database, _notmuch_message_remove_filename would needlessly
create that directory document. Fix it so that doesn't happen.
Previously, _notmuch_database_filename_to_direntry would abort with an
internal error when called on a read-only database. Now that creating
the directory document is optional,
notmuch_database_find_message_by_filename can disable directory
document creation (as it should) and, as a result, not abort on
read-only databases.
Using the new support from _notmuch_directory_create, this makes
notmuch_database_get_directory a read-only operation that simply
returns the directory object if it exists or NULL otherwise. This
also means that notmuch_database_get_directory can work on read-only
databases.
This change breaks the directory mtime workaround in notmuch-new.c by
fixing the exact issue it was working around. This permits mtime
update races to prevent scans of changed directories, which
non-deterministically breaks a few tests. The next patch fixes this.
Now _notmuch_database_filename_to_direntry takes a flags argument and
can indicate if the necessary directory documents do not exist.
Again, callers have been updated, but retain their original behavior.
Now _notmuch_database_find_directory_id takes a flags argument, which
it passes through to _notmuch_directory_create and can indicate if the
directory does not exist. Again, callers have been updated, but
retain their original behavior.
Previously this function would create directory documents if they
didn't exist. As a result, it could only be used on writable
databases. This adds an argument to make creation optional and to
make this function work on read-only databases. We use a flag
argument to avoid a bare boolean and to permit future expansion.
Both callers have been updated, but currently retain the old behavior.
We'll take advantage of the new argument in the following patches.
Previously, notmuch_database_get_directory had no way to indicate how
it had failed. This changes its prototype to return a status code and
set an out-argument to the retrieved directory, like similar functions
in the library API. This does *not* change its currently broken
behavior of creating directory objects when they don't exist, but it
does document it and paves the way for fixing this. Also, it can now
check for a read-only database and return
NOTMUCH_STATUS_READ_ONLY_DATABASE instead of crashing.
In the interest of atomicity, this also updates calls from the CLI so
that notmuch still compiles.
We've changed the APIs of notmuch_database_open,
notmuch_database_create, and notmuch_database_close.
Amended by db: also bump string in bindings/python/notmuch/globals.py
This is the notmuch_database_create equivalent of the previous change.
In this case, there were places where errors were not being propagated
correctly in notmuch_database_create or in calls to it. These have
been fixed, using the new status value.
It has been a long-standing issue that notmuch_database_open doesn't
return any indication of why it failed. This patch changes its
prototype to return a notmuch_status_t and set an out-argument to the
database itself, like other functions that return both a status and an
object.
In the interest of atomicity, this also updates every use in the CLI
so that notmuch still compiles. Since this patch does not update the
bindings, the Python bindings test fails.
Formerly notmuch_database_close closed the xapian database and
destroyed the talloc structure associated with the notmuch database
object. Split notmuch_database_close into notmuch_database_close and
notmuch_database_destroy.
This makes it possible for long running programs to close the xapian
database and thus release the lock associated with it without
destroying the data structures obtained from it.
This also makes the api more consistent since every other data
structure has a destructor function.

Implicit typecast from 'void *' to 'T *' is okay in C, but not in
C++. In talloc_steal, an explicit cast is provided for type safety in
some GCC versions. Otherwise, a cast is required. Provide a template
function for this to maintain type safety, and redefine talloc_steal
to use it.
The template must be outside the extern "C" block (NOTMUCH_BEGIN_DECLS
and NOTMUCH_END_DECLS), but keep it within the GCC visibility #pragma.
No functional changes, apart from making the library build with
compilers other than recent GCC.

When the exclude tags contain a tag that does not occur anywhere in
the Xapian database the exclusion fails. We modify the way the query
is constructed to `work around' this. (In fact the new code is cleaner
anyway.)
It also seems to fix another exclusion failure bug reported by
jrollins but we have not yet worked out why it helps in that case.
Allow query debugging to be enabled at run-time by setting the
NOTMUCH_DEBUG_QUERY environment variable to a non-empty string.
Previously, enabling query debugging required recompiling, but parsed
queries are often useful for tracking down bugs in situations where
recompiling is inconvenient.
Formerly it was possible for *message_ret to be left
uninitialized. The documentation however clearly states that "[o]n any
failure or when the message is not found, this function initializes
'*message' to NULL".

Formerly the xapian database object was deleted and closed in its
destructor once the object was garbage collected. Explicitly call
close() so that the database and the associated lock is released
immediately.

Add the NOTMUCH_MESSAGE_FLAG_EXCLUDED flag to
notmuch_query_search_threads. Implemented by inspecting the tags
directly in _notmuch_thread_create/_thread_add_message rather than as
a Xapian query for speed reasons.
Note notmuch_thread_get_matched_messages now returns the number of
non-excluded matching messages. This API is not totally desirable but
fixing it means breaking binary compatibility so we delay that.
Add a flag NOTMUCH_MESSAGE_FLAG_EXCLUDED which is set by
notmuch_query_search_messages for excluded messages. Also add an
option omit_excluded_messages to the search that we do not want the
excludes at all.
This exclude flag will be added to notmuch_query_search threads in the
next patch.
This fixes a bug that didn't allow to search for non-ASCII words such
parts. The code here was copied from show_text_part_content(), because
the show command already does the needed conversion when showing the
message.
Previously opening a notmuch database in read write mode that has been
locked resulted in the notmuch_database_open function executing
notmuch_database_close as a cleanup function. notmuch_database_close
failed to check whether the xapian database has in fact been created.
Add a check whether the xapian database object has actually been
created before trying to call its flush method.

Previously, we manually "free"d various pointers in
notmuch_database_open. Use a local talloc context instead to simplify
cleanup and eliminate various NULL pointer initializations and
conditionals.
In the error-handling paths of notmuch_database_open, we call
notmuch_database_close, which "delete"s several objects referenced by
the notmuch_database_t object. However, some of these pointers may be
uninitialized, resulting in undefined behavior. Hence, allocate the
notmuch_database_t with talloc_zero to make sure these pointers are
NULL so that "delete"ing them is harmless.
This is useful for tags like "deleted" and "spam" that people
generally want to exclude from query results. These exclusions will
be overridden if a tag is explicitly mentioned in a query.

As reported in
id:"CAEbOPGyuHnz4BPtDutnTPUHcP3eYcRCRkXhYoJR43RUMw671+g@mail.gmail.com"
sometimes gmime tries to access a NULL pointer, e.g. g_mime_iconv_open()
tries to access iconv_cache that is NULL if g_mime_init() is not called.
This causes notmuch to segfault when calling gmime functions.
Calling g_mime_init() initializes iconv_cache and others variables needed
by gmime, making sure they are initialized when notmuch calls gmime
functions.
Test marked fix by db.
It appears to be an oversight that encrypted parts were indexed
previously. The terms generated from encrypted parts are meaningless
and do nothing but add bloat to the database. It is not worth
indexing the encrypted content, just as it's not worth indexing the
signatures in signed parts.
Commit 567bcbc2 introduced two new values for each message (content of the
"From" and "Subject" headers), but the comments about the database schema had
not been updated accordingly.
For some reason, on my machine, the link is picking up
/usr/lib/libutil.so instead of util/libutil.a. This causes there to be
undefined symbols in libnotmuch, making it unuseable. This patch causes
the link to fail instead.
Add function notmuch_query_count_threads() to get the number of threads
matching a search. This is done by performing a search and figuring out the
number of unique thread IDs in the matching messages, a significantly
heavier operation than notmuch_query_count_messages().

This is a rebase and cleanup of Istvan Marko's patch from
id:m3pqnj2j7a.fsf@zsu.kismala.com
Search retrieves these headers for every message in the search
results. Previously, this required opening and parsing every message
file. Storing them directly in the database significantly reduces IO
and computation, speeding up search by between 50% and 10X.
Taking full advantage of this requires a database rebuild, but it will
fall back to the old behavior for messages that do not have headers
stored in the database.
