The Ruby bindings were missing a way to get all the tags of the
database. Now you should be able to access this with the public
instance method `all_tags` of your database object.
Example of use:
notmuchdb = Notmuch::Database.new path, { :create => false,
:mode => Notmuch::MODE_READ_ONLY }
my_tags = notmuchdb.all_tags
my_tags.each { |tag|
print tag
}
my_tags.destroy!
Amended by db: improve error reporting, add test
This is supposed to help build on systems like MacOS with different
conventions for naming shared libraries. We have already computed the
relevant names, so doing it again in ruby seems like a bad idea.
Because ruby generates a Makefile, we have to use recursive make.
Because mkmf.rb hardcodes the name Makefile, put our Makefile{.local}
in the parent directory.
Currently it simply finds any library available, and if notmuch is
installed in the system, it would give priority to that library.
Let's implement our own helper functions to link directly to the local
library, and give priority to the local header file.
Also, add an option to properly check if there are missing symbols.

It has never existed in Ruby (maybe JRuby). Fortunately the symbols are
loaded lazily, so nobody would notice unless they try
'query::count_messages'.

Some C compilers are stricter when it comes to (tentative) definition
of a variable -- in those compilers introducing variable without 'extern'
keyword always allocates new 'storage' to the variable and linking all
these modules fails due to duplicate symbols.
This is reimplementation of Charlie Allom's patch:
id:"1336481467-66356-1-git-send-email-charlie@mediasp.com",
written originally by Ali Polatel. This version has
more accurate commit message.
Two new wrappers:
Notmuch::Database.find_message(id) => Notmuch::Message or nil
Notmuch::Database.find_message_by_filename(path) => Notmuch::Message or nil
According to the common Ruby function naming convention, potentially
dangerous functions or functions which operate on the object itself are
suffixed with an exclamation mark. Both of these are true for object
destroying functions.
The following modules are affected:
- Notmuch::Directory
- Notmuch::FileNames
- Notmuch::Query
- Notmuch::Threads
- Notmuch::Thread
- Notmuch::Messages
- Notmuch::Message
- Notmuch::Tags
Let the user destroy objects that she wants explicitly.
It's not possible to specify the order objects are garbage collected.
