It makes the function a little more intuitive to use and does not
diverge much from the original function signature.
Also an example is added to the docstring.
The C functions notmuch_database_get_config,
notmuch_database_get_config_list and notmuch_database_set_config are
part of the official C bindings. So there should also be some python
bindings for them.
Also they are the only way to access the named queries introduced in
b9bf3f44.
The interface of the python functions is designed to be close to the C
functions.
currently, notmuch's get_message_parts() opens the file in text mode and passes
the file object to email.message_from_file(fp). In case the email contains
UTF-8 characters, reading might fail inside email.parser with the following exception:
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/notmuch/message.py", line 591, in get_message_parts
email_msg = email.message_from_binary_file(fp)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/email/__init__.py", line 62, in message_from_binary_file
return BytesParser(*args, **kws).parse(fp)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/email/parser.py", line 110, in parse
return self.parser.parse(fp, headersonly)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/email/parser.py", line 54, in parse
data = fp.read(8192)
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/codecs.py", line 321, in decode
(result, consumed) = self._buffer_decode(data, self.errors, final)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xe4 in position 1865: invalid continuation byte
To fix this, read file in binary mode and pass to
email.message_from_binary_file(fp).
Unfortunately, Python 2 doesn't support
email.message_from_binary_file(fp), so keep using
email.message_from_file(fp) there.

The deprecated Database.add_message now calls the new index_file with
correct number of arguments (without an extra `self`), and returns the
tuple from index_file - as it used to do before.
This change also adds a DeprecationWarning to the function.
We need a way to pass parameters to the indexing functionality on the
first index, not just on reindexing. The obvious place is in
notmuch_database_add_message. But since modifying the argument list
would break both API and ABI, we needed a new name.
I considered notmuch_database_add_message_with_params(), but the
functionality we're talking about doesn't always add a message. It
tries to index a specific file, possibly adding a message, but
possibly doing other things, like adding terms to an existing message,
or failing to deal with message objects entirely (e.g. because the
file didn't contain a message).
So i chose the function name notmuch_database_index_file.
I confess i'm a little concerned about confusing future notmuch
developers with the new name, since we already have a private
_notmuch_message_index_file function, and the two do rather different
things. But i think the added clarity for people linking against the
future libnotmuch and the capacity for using index parameters makes
this a worthwhile tradeoff. (that said, if anyone has another name
that they strongly prefer, i'd be happy to go with it)
This changeset also adjusts the tests so that we test whether the new,
preferred function returns bad values (since the deprecated function
just calls the new one).
We can keep the deprecated n_d_add_message function around as long as
we like, but at the next place where we're forced to break API or ABI
we can probably choose to drop the name relatively safely.
NOTE: there is probably more cleanup to do in the ruby and go bindings
to complete the deprecation directly. I don't know those languages
well enough to attempt a fix; i don't know how to test them; and i
don't know the culture around those languages about API additions or
deprecations.
A leading / in paths in a .gitignore file matches the beginning of the
path, meaning that for patterns without slashes, git will match files
only in the current directory as opposed to in any subdirectory.
Prefix relevant paths with / in .gitignore files, to prevent
accidentally ignoring files in subdirectories and possibly slightly
improve the performance of "git status".
This function was deprecated in notmuch 0.21. We re-use the name for
a status returning version, and deprecate the _st name. One or two
remaining uses of the (removed) non-status returning version fixed at
the same time
This function was deprecated in notmuch 0.21. We finally remove the
deprecated API, and rename the status returning version to the simpler
name. The status returning is kept as a deprecated alias.
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.
Currently, http://packages.python.org/notmuch/ goes through a series
of redirections and ends up pointing to readthedocs. Since we're
using readthedocs directly anyway, just point to it directly.
readthedocs are also now sensibly using a separate domain
(readthedocs.io) for their hosted documentation as distinct from their
own domain (readthedocs.org), so use the correct tld.
The notmuch python bindings document that database.remove_message
should raise an exception when the message removal fails, but they
don't actually do it.
Drop unused imports, and avoid warning about unused imports when we
import something on behalf of another module.

Failing to update this string in globals.py causes failures when the
SONAME changes. In order to hopefully reduce the number of such
errors, automate the process of setting the SONAME in the python
bindings.
This should have happened in commit 6754ad9f9, but oops.
This was not caught by our test suite because it uses an installed
notmuch library of it cannot find the just built one.
Also bump the python bindings version, the NEWS version and the Debian
version.
Since the changelog is (slightly dubiously) metadata, we have to
change it to upload a release candidate.
html_static_path is a kind of source directory and it was set to
destination directory (../html) which caused infinite recursion with
Sphinx 1.2 and above.
Roll (one last?) release candidate because of Austin's
LIBNOTMUCH_VERSION changes.
Atomically bump the manually (NEWS, debian/changelog) and
automatically (everywhere else) updated places version is mentioned.
