Due to the change in the config system, notmuch keeps a notmuch database
open when it would not do so before. Consequently, it can miss changes
to the database which are done from a hook (while notmuch holds the
databse in read only mode). When notmuch itself writes to the database
after that it uses wrong assumptions about the last used doc id etc.
Demonstrate this by triggering an assertion. (This new test succeeds
with notmuch 0.31.4.)

Amended-by: db. Check for both messages
Prior to 0.32, notmuch had the (undocumented) behaviour that it
expanded a relative value of database.path with respect to $HOME. In
0.32 this was special cased for database.path but broken for
database.mail_root, which causes problems for at least notmuch-new
when database.path is set to a relative path.
The change in T030-config.sh reflects a user visible, but hopefully
harmless behaviour change; the expanded form of the paths will now be
printed by notmuch config.
We always do test_expect_equal_file, so do it in test_ruby() directly.
The only subtest where we don't (get non-existent file) can be easily
modified.

Not much point in polluting the main library, and also will be useful to
modify it in tandem with the tests.

test_emacs may update the external prereqs, in which case we want to
skip the test rather than fail.
Signed-off-by: Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>
When the external prereqs are updated inside the body of the command
(e.g. test_emacs) the message in test_report_skip_ is wrong: it outputs
the body of the command instead of the subtest name.
We need to pass the same argument we pass to test_skip.

My fqdn is 'natae.localdomain', however, socket.getfqdn() returns
'localhost'.
To fetch the true fqdn we need socket.getaddrinfo().

The lastest versions of GNU parallel no longer make mention of GNU

the moreutils parallel execution. In order to fix this, while

Apparently the -f option to hostname is not portable, and in fact it

lib/open.cc:_load_key_file will only open xdg-config files in
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME if it's defined, $HOME/.config will be considered if
and only if XDG_CONFIG_HOME not defined.
Let's unset said variable before running the test.
Certain tools like the address-sanitizer fail if they are not the
first LD_PRELOADed library. It does not seem to matter for our shims,
as long as they are loaded before libnotmuch.
This will allow simplifying the subcommand interface.
Change the internal API to notmuch_config_open to not tie it to the
implementation of subcommands in notmuch.c.
It also fixes a previously broken test, since notmuch_config_open does
not understand the notion of the empty string as a config file name.
There are two small code changes. The main one is to retrieve the
possibly updated config file name found during the database opening
call. The second change is to allow empty config file names, as
a (currently broken) way of specifying that configuration should only
be taken from the database.
Eventually we want to do all opening of databases in the top
level (main function). This means that detection of missing databases
needs to move out of subcommands. It also requires updating the
library to use the new NO_DATABASE status code.
Previously the fact that some configuration options were only stored
in the database (and thus editing the config file had no effect) was a
source of user confusion. This was fixed with the series ending at
d9af0af164.
On the other hand, the underlying partition of config options into
those stored by default in the database and those stored in the config
file remained. This is also confusing, since now some invocations of
"notmuch config set" modify the config file, and others silently
modify the database instead.
With this commit, it is up to the user to decide which configuration
to modify. A new "--database" option is provided for notmuch config to
enable modifying the configuration information in the database;
otherwise the default is to update an external config file.
Use the database opened at the top level rather than opening another
notmuch_database_t.
Test output changes because keys are now listed in alphabetical order,
and because a missing database is no longer an error.
This commit starts the conversion of notmuch-config.c
functionality (as opposed to just interface) to the new config
framework.
The change to T030-config is because of the move of the
canonicalization database paths from the notmuch_config_t accessor to
the internal function _choose_database_path.
The layer of shims here seems a bit wasteful compared to just calling
the corresponding string map functions directly, but it allows control
over the API (calling with notmuch_database_t *) and flexibility for
future changes.
The stat is essentially replaced by the mkdir for error detection
purposes. This changes the default location for backups to make
things tidier, even in non-split configurations. Hopefully there is
not too many user scripts relying on the previous location.
Because the default location may not exist, replace the use of stat
for error detection with a call to mkdir.
Like the hook directory, we primarily need a way to communicate this
directory between various components, but we may as well let the user
configure it.
Most of the diff is generalizing choose_hook_dir to work for both
backup and hook directories.
Choose sibling directory of xapian database, as .notmuch may not
exist.
libgen.h is already used in debugger.c, so it is not a new dependency
/ potential portability problem.
The new test is in T055-path-config because it uses the helper
function split_config, and because it seems easier to put the
database path related tests in one place.
This changes some error reporting, either intentionally by reporting
the highest level missing directory, or by side effect from looking in
XDG locations when given null database location.
This adds new state variable for the mail root, and uses it most
places db_path was used. The notable exception is dumps from
backups. The latter will be dealt with properly in a future commit.
The main functionality will be tested when notmuch-new is converted to
support split configuration. Here only the somewhat odd case of split
mail root which is actually symlinked to the database path is tested.
Introduce a new configuration value for the mail root, and use it to
locate mail messages in preference to the database.path (which
previously implied the mail messages were also in this location.
Initially only a subset of the CLI is tested in a split
configuration. Further changes will be needed for the remainder of the
CLI to work in split configurations.
In order to open the database in main() for this command, we may need
to re-open it in the (possibly less common) case where crypto options
require write access.
This fixes a bug reported in [1]. In principle it could be possible
avoid one of these reopens, but it complicates the logic in main with
respect to creating new databases.

Recent changes to configuration handling meant the pre-new hook was
run while the database was open read only, limiting what could be done
in the hook. Add some known broken tests for this problem, as well as
a regression test for write access from the post-new hook.
In the future Xapian will apparently support this more conveniently
for the cases other than READ_ONLY => READ_ONLY
Conceptually this function seems to fit better in lib/open.cc;
database.cc is still large enough that moving the function makes
sense.
In [1] Gregor Zattler explained the results of his hard work
tracking down a bug in notmuch with long directories. This test
duplicates the bug.

Fix use of $TEST_DIRECTORY ($NOTMUCH_BUILDDIR/test/) with use of

and directories.
The assignment of thread-ids is (apparently) non-deterministic in a
way that mostly seems to show up on multicore machines. In my tests
the number is different from that previously assumed by this test
about 15% of the time on a 50 thread (25 core) Xeon.
Since message id's are fixed, use a message known to be in the thread
of interest to pick out the correct thread-id.
This is the last bit of "python" left in the notmuch codebase.
https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0394/#recommendation encourages
"third-party distributors" to use more-specific shebang lines. I'm
not certain that the notmuch project itself is a "third-party
contributor" but I think this is a safe way to encourage people to use
python3 when they're developing notmuch.
We already have python3 explicitly elsewhere in the codebase for
developers (in nmbug).

This enables support for hooks outside the database directory.
It relies strongly on configuration information being usable between
closing the database and destroying it.
The hook directory configuration needs to be kept in synch with the
other configuration information, so add scaffolding to support this at
database opening time.
In addition to the same type of changes as converting other
subcommands, add the possibility of creating a database at the top
level. It would probably make sense to use this for insert as well.
This will need some cleanup when the transition completes, and we stop
passing notmuch_config_t structs to the subcommands.
Unlike the general case, we open the database in the subcommand, since
we don't know whether it should be opened read/write until we parse
the command line arguments.
Add a test to make sure passing config file on the command line is not
broken by these or future config related changes.
Since we are already passing a search context around as a kind of
parameter block, add a new talloc context to that to replace relying
on 'config'.
Convert notmuch-search and notmuch-address at the same time, because
they share some code.
Add a test to make sure we don't break passing configuration as a
command line argument.
The new talloc context is needed to run the hook at the very end of
the function. That in turn is needed so that this process gives up the
write lock on the database.
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).
By using an enum we can have better error detection than copy pasting
key strings around.
The question of what layer this belongs in is a bit
tricky. Historically most of the keys are defined by the CLI. On the
other hand features like excludes are supported in the
library/bindings, and it makes sense to configure them from the
library as well.
The somewhat long prefix for notmuch_config_t is to avoid collisions
with the existing usage in notmuch-client.h.
Fill in the remainder of the documented functionality for
n_d_open_with_config with respect to config file location. Similar
searching default locations of the database file still needs to be
added.
The main goal is to allow configuration information to be temporarily
overridden by a separate config file. That will require further
changes not in this commit.
The performance impact is unclear, and will depend on the balance
between number of queries and number of distinct metadata items read
on the first call to n_d_get_config.
In ee897cab8b the upgrade tests from pre v3 databases were
removed. The reasons for that are still valid, but we should still
test the code paths that do the upgrade, and it is relatively
straightforward to do that for v3 to v3 upgrades.
`outline-minor-mode' treats comments that begin with three or more
semicolons as headings. That makes it very convenient to navigate
code and to show/hide parts of a file.
Elips libraries typically have four top-level sections, e.g.:
;;; notmuch.el --- run notmuch within emacs...
;;; Commentary:...
;;; Code:...
;;; notmuch.el ends here
In this package many libraries lack a "Commentary:" section, which is
not optimal but okay for most libraries, except major entry points.
Depending on how one chooses to look at it, the "... ends here" line
is not really a heading that begins a section, because it should never
have a "section" body (after all it marks eof).
If the file is rather short, then I left "Code:" as the only section
that contains code. Otherwise I split the file into multiple sibling
sections. The "Code:" section continues to contain `require' and
`declare-function' forms and other such "front matter".
If and only if I have split the code into multiple sections anyway,
then I also added an additional section named just "_" before the
`provide' form and shortly before the "...end here" line. This
section could also be called "Back matter", but I feel it would be
distracting to be that explicit about it. (The IMO unnecessary but
unfortunately still obligatory "... ends here" line is already
distracting enough as far as I am concerned.)
Before this commit some libraries already uses section headings, some
of them consistently. When a library already had some headings, then
this commit often sticks to that style, even at the cost inconsistent
styling across all libraries.
A very limited number of variable and function definitions have to be
moved around because they would otherwise end up in sections they do
not belong into.
Sections, including but not limited to their heading, can and should
be further improved in the future.
readelf on (at least) ppc64le sometimes generates some extension to
