If we're building against a version of Xapian that doesn't offer
retrying the lock, we should be honest and describe the tests as
broken, rather than marking them as missing a test prerequisite.
missing test prerequisites should be for specific components of the
test harness that are missing, not for the backend library notmuch
uses.
Named queries don't work without Xapian FieldProcessor. Rather than
silently skipping them, we should explictly mark them as broken when
building against an older version of Xapian.
Previously, the test suite had simply silently skipped the absolute
date test if we're using an archaic version of Xapian. For
correctness, we should instead mark the test as broken.
This also changes from string to numeric comparison when checking
NOMTUCH_HAVE_XAPIAN_FIELD_PROCESSOR for consistency with other tests.
The old name has a bit of a feeling of hungarian notation. Also many
generators in the core are named with the suffix "s" to indicate
iterables: dict.items, dict.keys for example.
This test will pass if either the notmuch show mitigation code is
working correctly, or upstream emacs mime handling code has it's own
fix for https://bugs.gnu.org/28350.
When i'm trying to understand a message signature, i care that i know
who it came from (the "validity" of the identity associated with the
key), *not* whether i'm willing to accept the keyholder's other
identity assertions (the "trust" associated with the certificate).
We've been reporting User ID information based on the "trust"
associated with the certificate, because GMime didn't clearly expose
the validity of the User IDs.
This change relies on fixes made in GMime 3.0.3 and later which
include https://github.com/jstedfast/gmime/pull/18.
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.
If you're going to store the cleartext index of an encrypted message,
in most situations you might just as well store the session key.
Doing this storage has efficiency and recoverability advantages.
Combined with a schedule of regular OpenPGP subkey rotation and
destruction, this can also offer security benefits, like "deletable
e-mail", which is the store-and-forward analog to "forward secrecy".
But wait, i hear you saying, i have a special need to store cleartext
indexes but it's really bad for me to store session keys! Maybe
(let's imagine) i get lots of e-mails with incriminating photos
attached, and i want to be able to search for them by the text in the
e-mail, but i don't want someone with access to the index to be
actually able to see the photos themselves.
Fret not, the next patch in this series will support your wacky
uncommon use case.
There are some situations where the user wants to get rid of the
cleartext index of a message. For example, if they're indexing
encrypted messages normally, but suddenly they run across a message
that they really don't want any trace of in their index.
In that case, the natural thing to do is:
notmuch reindex --decrypt=false id:whatever@example.biz
But of course, clearing the cleartext index without clearing the
stashed session key is just silly. So we do the expected thing and
also destroy any stashed session keys while we're destroying the index
of the cleartext.
Note that stashed session keys are stored in the xapian database, but
xapian does not currently allow safe deletion (see
https://trac.xapian.org/ticket/742).
As a workaround, after removing session keys and cleartext material
from the database, the user probably should do something like "notmuch
compact" to try to purge whatever recoverable data is left in the
xapian freelist. This problem really needs to be addressed within
xapian, though, if we want it fixed right.
The new "auto" decryption policy is not only good for "notmuch show"
and "notmuch reindex". It's also useful for indexing messages --
there's no good reason to not try to go ahead and index the cleartext
of a message that we have a stashed session key for.
This change updates the defaults and tunes the test suite to make sure
that they have taken effect.
When showing a message, if the user doesn't specify --decrypt= at all,
but a stashed session key is known to notmuch, notmuch should just go
ahead and try to decrypt the message with the session key (without
bothering the user for access to their asymmetric secret key).
The user can disable this at the command line with --decrypt=false if
they really don't want to look at the e-mail that they've asked
notmuch to show them.
and of course, "notmuch show --decrypt" still works for accessing the
user's secret keys if necessary.
If the user doesn't specify --decrypt= at all, but a stashed session
key is known to notmuch, when replying to an encrypted message,
notmuch should just go ahead and decrypt.
The user can disable this at the command line with --decrypt=false,
though it's not clear why they would ever want to do that.
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.
If the version of GMime we're building against doesn't support session
key extraction or re-use, mark the tests that rely on session key
capabilities as known-broken.
This should resolve test suite failures on ubuntu trusty and debian
jessie and earlier, which have GMime 2.6.20 -- session key support was
introduced in GMime 2.6.21.
If you've got a notmuch dump that includes stashed session keys for
every decrypted message, and you've got your message archive, you
should be able to get back to the same index that you had before.
Here we add a simple test that give some flavor of how that works.
In 8e7fb88237 Jani replaced the use of $(pwd -P) to find the
TEST_DIRECTORY in order to better support out of tree
builds. Unfortunately the performance-tests need a different value for
the variable and were thus broken.
This commit splits out the setting of this variable for the two sets
of tests. Performance tests still don't work out of tree, because
the handling of the downloaded corpus needs to be updated.
backup_database() and restore_database() used to store the backups in
the test specific temporary directory, through the current working
directory being there. Commit 8e7fb88237 ("test: use source and
build paths in test-lib-common.sh") started using a test specific
backup directories under the build tree test directory. This was in
error. Switch back to the old location, but using paths to the
location instead of relying on current working directory.
Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
Enable override of the index.try_decrypt setting on a per-run basis
when invoking "notmuch reindex". This allows the possibility of (for
example) an emacs keybinding that adds the cleartext of the currently
shown decrypted message to the index, making it searchable in the
future.
It also enables one-time indexing of all messages matching some query,
like so:
notmuch reindex tag:encrypted and\
not property:index.decryption=success and\
from:alice@example.org
We also update the documentation and tab completion, and add a few
more tests.
Enable override of the index.try_decrypt setting on a per-message
basis when invoking "notmuch insert".
We also update the documentation and tab completion, and add more tests.
Enable override of the index.try_decrypt setting during "notmuch new"
on a per-invocation basis.
We update the documentation and tab completion, and also add a test.
Subsequent patches may want to send GNU-style --long-arguments to
notmuch new in the test suite, in particular when invoking
emacs_fcc_message. This changeset makes that possible.
The primary motivation here is to fix TMP_DIRECTORY cleanup prior to
running each test when the current working directory is not the test
subdirectory. Tests with failures would leave their TMP_DIRECTORY
directory behind for debugging, and repeated out-of-tree test runs
would have old temp directories. (This lead to e.g. T310-emacs.sh
hanging because emacs would prompt for overwriting files.)
We remove the likely anyway defunct --root test option while at it,
just to be on the safe side when doing 'rm -rf' on the TMP_DIRECTORY.
Turns out round trip tests didn't really round trip anything. Broken
by yours truly in 971cdc72cd ("test: make it possible to have
multiple corpora"). Ooops.
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.
This imports a message with ISO-8859-2 encoded characters, then opens

Commit a7964c86d1 ("emacs: Sanitize authors and subjects in search

This is a logical followup to "lib: index the content type of

It's useful (*) to be able to easily find messages with certain types

In [1] Mark showed that the the current code (d7a49e81) is not
consistent in it's handling of subjects of messages with duplicate
message-ids (or in notmuch-speak, of messages with multiple files).
notmuch-search uses indexing order and explicitedly preserves the
first. notmuch-show (apparently) uses alphabetical (or at least xapian
term order) of filenames. In a perfect world we would probably report
all subjects in the json output; at the very least we should be
consistent.
[1]: id:87378dny3d.fsf@qmul.ac.uk
In [1], Mark gave a test that was behaving strangly. This turns out to
be specific to reindexing. I suppose one could argue that picking the
lexicographically last file name is a defensible choice, but it's
almost as easy to take the first, which seems more intuitive. So mark
the current situation as broken.
[1]: id:1503859703-2973-1-git-send-email-markwalters1009@gmail.com
The existing test for notmuch search had the first in filename order
the same as the first indexed, which made it harder to understand what
the underlying behaviour is. Add a file with a lexicographically
smaller name, but later index time to clarify this.
The original intent of this test was to verify that notmuch show was
not crashing when the first file (where headers are being read from)
was deleted. Run the output through some sanitization so that as we
add and delete copies we don't have to update this test.
Changed "" quotes to '' as we're not supposed to dynamically
alter python program (via shell $variable expansion).
Added space to python program to match general python style.
Replaced $* with 'idiomatic' "$@" to serve as better example.
In [1], Vladimir Panteleev observed that the In-Reply-To and
References headers could be wrapped in the 'default' output format of
notmuch-reply, depending on the version of Emacs creating the
message. In my own experiments notmuch-reply sometimes wraps headers
with only one message-id if that message-id is long enough. However it
happens, this causes the previous approach using grep to fail.
Since I found the proposed unwrapping shell fragment in [1] a bit hard
to follow, I decided to write a little python script instead. Then
Tomi suggested a slight generalization of my script, and here we are.

On some system configurations, setting a breakpoint on the "add_file"
function then issuing "continue" in gdb causes the debugger to
seemingly jump over the add_file invocation. This results in a test
failure, as the "Handle files vanishing between scandir and add_file"
subtest expects add_file to be called and fail due to the vanishing
file. The compiler optimization level also plays a role - the problem
can be reproduced with CFLAGS having -O2 but not -Og.
This problem was observed manifesting as a test failure on Travis CI
configured with "dist: trusty" and "sudo: false". It was not
reproducible on a local Docker image of Travis' runtime environment,
so Travis' virtualization infrastructure likely plays a role as well.
* T050-new.sh: Breakpoint notmuch_database_add_message instead of
add_file to the same effect, and avoid bad gdb behaviour on Travis

Somehow the wrapper function doesn't work as a breakpoint; perhaps due
to inlining.
We reorder reading maildir flags to avoid overwriting 'new.tags'. The
inverted status of 'unread' means the maildir flag needs to be checked
a second time.
I backpedalled here on the idea of supporting 'new.tags' without
'unread' in the presence of maildir syncing. For files in 'new/', it
seems quite natural to tag them as 'unread'.
json.tool does not sort or otherwise normalize the order of JSON keys
in its output, which can result in test failures on some test systems.
Instead, use a one-line Python script passed to the interpreter
directly on its command line. Use sort_keys=True for json.dump to
ensure the key order is normalized. The script works with both Python
2 and 3.
* test/test-lib.sh: Update test_expect_equal_json.
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.
This patch fixes the 'Deleted first duplicate file does not stop
notmuch show from working' test.
If a message to be shown has several duplicated files, and for some
reason the first file in the list is not available anymore, notmuch
will exit with an error.
This is clearly a problem in the database, but we are not going to let
this problem be a show-stopper. Let's walk through the list, and show
the first existing file.

This patch fixes the "Insert message into folder with trailing /"
test. The problem was insufficient path canonization.
From database's point of view, "Sent" and "Sent/" are different
folders. If user runs (note the last '/'):
notmuch insert --folder=maildir/Sent/ < test.msg
notmuch will create an extra XDIRECTORY record for the folder
'Sent/'. This means that database will have _TWO_ records for _ONE_
physical folder: 'Sent' and 'Sent/'. However, the 'notmuch new'
command will update only records related to the first one (the correct
one).
Now, if user moved the email file (e.g. from 'Sent/new' to
'Sent/cur'), 'notmuch new' will add a record about the new file, but
will not delete the old record.

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".
971cdc72cd renamed corpus.mail to
corpora.mail. Although 971cdc72cd
updated some of the remaining corpus.mail references, two remained,

directory.
The corresponding xapian document just gets more terms added to it,
but this doesn't seem to break anything. Values on the other hand get
overwritten, which is a bit annoying, but arguably it is not worse to
take the values (from, subject, date) from the last file indexed
rather than the first.
There are many other problems that could be tested, but these ones we
have some hope of fixing because it doesn't require UI changes, just
indexing changes.
There are some cases like remote usage where this might cause
problems, but those users can easily customize the variable. The
inconvenience seems to be outweighed by the security benefit for most
users.
gmime 3.0 no longer offers a means to set the path for gpg.
Users can set $PATH anyway if they want to pick a
differently-installed gpg (e.g. /usr/local/bin/gpg), so this isn't
much of a reduction in functionality.
The one main difference is for people who have tried to use "gpg2" to
make use of gpg 2.1, but that isn't usefully co-installable anyway.
The reply-to munging code might behave differently whether there's an
exact match on the strings or not, or whether the string is a raw
addr-spec instead of an name-addr. These tests cover those variations
(i also had to tweak json output further below when this new test was
added).
Since the error field is unused by the emacs front end, no changes are
needed other than bumping the format version number.
As it is, this is a bit overengineered, but it will reduce duplication
when we support gmime 3.0
This is another case where the behaviour of gmime-2.6 and gmime-3.0
seems to differ. It may be that we prefer the more lax parsing of the
previous version, but that should be tested separately.
Since gnupg 2.1.20, gpg-agent no longer shut itself down when
$GNUPGHOME directory is removed.
Add exit hooks to the test modules which execute `gpgconf --kill all`
Add exit hooks to execute `gpgconf --kill all` in the modules that

New function at_exit_function registers given function to be called
at script termination.
Functions so registered are called in the reverse order of their
registration; no arguments are passed.
Function is called only once; re-adding with function name already
registered will remove previous registration.
New function rm_exit_function can be used to remove registration.
Modules (and possibly test-lib.sh functions) in future commits will
register such functions.
The dynamic generation of the linker version script for libnotmuch
exports has grown rather complicated.
Reverse the visibility control by hiding symbols by default using
-fvisibility=hidden, and explicitly exporting symbols in notmuch.h
using #pragma GCC visibility. (We could also use __attribute__
((visibility ("default"))) for each exported function, but the pragma
is more convenient.)
The above is not quite enough alone, as it would "leak" a number of
weak symbols from Xapian and C++ standard library. Combine it with a
small static version script that filters out everything except the
notmuch_* symbols that we explicitly exposed, and the C++ RTTI
typeinfo symbols for exception handling.
Finally, as the symbol hiding test can no longer look at the generated
symbol table, switch the test to parse the functions from notmuch.h.
From a UI perspective this looks similar to what was already provided
for from, subject, and mid, but the implementation is quite
different. It uses the database's list of terms to construct a term
based query equivalent to the passed regular expression.
'quite' on IRC reported that notmuch new was grinding to a halt during
initial indexing, and we eventually narrowed the problem down to some
html parts with large embedded images. These cause the number of terms
added to the Xapian database to explode (the first 400 messages
generated 4.6M unique terms), and of course the resulting terms are
not much use for searching.
The second test is sanity check for any "improved" indexing of HTML.
These 210 messages are in several long threads, which is good for
testing our threading code, and may be useful just as a larger test
corpus in the future.
The non-field processor behaviour is is convert the corresponding
queries into a search for the unprefixed terms. This yields pretty
surprising results so I decided to generate a query that would match
the terms (i.e. none with that prefix) generated for an empty header.

The argument is that if the string passed to the field processor has
no spaces, then the added quotes won't have any benefit except for
disabling wildcards. But disabling wildcards doesn't seem very useful
in the normal Xapian query parser, since they're stripped before
generating terms anyway. It does mean that the query 'from:"foo*"' will
not be precisely equivalent to 'from:foo' as it is for the non
field-processor version.
This was broken by the addition of regexp searching. The detection of
wildcards is not currently done in the recursive call to parse_query,
because of quoting issues.
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

Apparently some systems (MacOS?) have a system library called libutil
and the name conflict causes problems. Since this library is quite
notmuch specific, rename it to something less generic.
Often Linux systems are shipped with wget(1) by default (and no curl).
Many BSDs, macOS, and e.g. some Linux minimal/container images

Attempting to download with curl if wget is not available increases
the likelihood for this to succeed.
For reasons not completely understood at this time, gmime (as of
2.6.22) is returning a date before 1900 on bad date input. Since this
confuses some other software, we clamp such dates to 0,

The only place where we use the implicit prereq check is T000-basic.sh
where we check that it works. It's an added complication that we don't

The test_have_prereq function can still be used for the same effect in
subtests that use test_begin_subtest. For now, this will make it
impossible to have prereqs in one-line subtests that don't require
test_begin_subtest. This will be fixed in follow-up work.
Known broken tests are, well, known broken. Do not print the result

Headers of more than 998 characters should be folded when sending.
However, until recently, emacs did not do this.
This adds a (known broken) test for this when sending messages in

changeset.
We filter added exclude at add time, rather than modifying the query by
count search. As noted in the comments, there are several ignored
conditions here.
The main goal is to prepare the way for non-destructive (or at least
less destructive) exclude tag handling. It does this by having a
pre-parsed query available for further processing. This also allows us
to provide slightly more precise error messages.
mid: is the url scheme suggested by URL 2392. We also plan to
introduce more flexible searches for mid: than are possible with
id: (in order not to break assumptions about the special behaviour of
id:, e.g. identifying at most one message).
the idea is that you can run
% notmuch search subject:/<your-favourite-regexp>/
% notmuch search from:/<your-favourite-regexp>/
or
% notmuch search subject:"your usual phrase search"
% notmuch search from:"usual phrase search"
This feature is only available with recent Xapian, specifically
support for field processors is needed.
It should work with bindings, since it extends the query parser.
This is easy to extend for other value slots, but currently the only
value slots are date, message_id, from, subject, and last_mod. Date is
already searchable; message_id is left for a followup commit.
This was originally written by Austin Clements, and ported to Xapian
field processors (from Austin's custom query parser) by yours truly.
We already use this directory for dtach sockets, so it makes sense to

Instead of just having the first filename for the message, list all

The retries are hardcoded to a small number, and error handling aborts
than propagating errors from notmuch_database_reopen. These are both
somewhat justified by the assumption that most things that can go

discussion with Xapian upstream:

$NOTMUCH_PYTHON is sourced from sh.config, configured by
./configure and stated to be used as:
"Name of python command to use in configure and the test suite."
This enables the shortened socket pathes in /run or equivalent. The
explicit call to gpgconf is needed for nonstandard GNUPGHOME settings.
(amended according to id:m2fujatr4k.fsf@guru.guru-group.fi)
Attempt to distinguish between errors indicating misconfiguration or
programmer error, which we consider "permanent", in the sense that
automatic retries are unlikely to be useful, and those indicating
transient error conditions. We consider XAPIAN_EXCEPTION transient
because it covers the important special case of locking failure.
Running `gdb command < input` is not as reliable way to give input
to the command (some installations of gdb consume it). Use "set args"
gdb command to have input redirected at gdb 'run' time.
GnuPG 2.1.16 is now injecting the full issuer fingerprint in its
signatures, which makes them about 32 octets larger when
ascii-armored.
This change in size means that the size of the MIME parts will vary
depending on the version of gpg that the user has installed. at any
rate, the signature part should be non-zero (this is true for
basically any MIME part), so we just test for that instead of an exact
size.
emacs24 and emacs23 have different secure tag defaults: in particular,
mml-secure-message-sign only signs the part on emacs23 but the whole
message on emacs24. This difference makes one of the draft tests fail
(which causes a cascade of later failures) on emacs23. It seems that
travis uses emacs23 so it is useful to fix this.
We do this by forcing the whole message to be signed in either case --
the code snippet is extracted from mml-secure-message-sign on emacs24.
Provide functionality to resume editing a message previously saved with
notmuch-draft-save, including decoding the X-Notmuch-Emacs-Secure
header.
Resume gets the raw file from notmuch and using the emacs function
mime-to-mml reconstructs the message (including attachments).
'e' is bound to resume a draft from show or tree mode.
This provides initial support for postponing in the emacs frontend;
resuming will follow in a later commit. On saving/postponing it uses
notmuch insert to put the message in the notmuch database
Current bindings are C-x C-s to save a draft, C-c C-p to postpone a
draft (save and exit compose buffer).
Previous drafts get tagged deleted on subsequent saves, or on the
message being sent.
Each draft gets its own message-id, and we use the namespace
draft-.... for draft message ids (so, at least for most people, drafts
are easily distinguisable).
Moved the 2 basename(1) executions to the test failure branch in
test_expect_equal_file ().
The output of basename(1) executions in function test_expect_equal_file ()
are only used when tests fails -- when all tests pass these 2 basename(1)
executions are no longer done at all.
Thanks to Lucas (id:147263183913.27784.12274024193186585889@mbp) for the
bug report and the test case.
I decided to use the python version because the python bindings could
use more exercise.
In case of the test script is to be relaunced under valgrind, or --tee
is requested, use the $BASH shell variable to locate the command
interpreter. The $SHELL variable is re-set by non-interactive shells
so in case the shell uses some other shell (e.g. zsh) for interactive
use these bash scripts continue to work.
This is a strange corner case where the removing of the user's address
from the To: header does the wrong thing. If we think it is
worth (eventually) fixing, this test can serve as a reminder.
We want to be able to query the properties directly, like:
notmuch count property:foo=bar
which should return a count of messages where the property with key
"foo" has value equal to "bar".
This stops the (usually incorrect) sigstatus and encstatus buttons
appearing when replying in emacs, and updates the test suite to match.
Overriding the status button functions is a little unusual but much
less intrusive than passing an argument all the way down the call
chain. It also makes it clear exactly what it does.
We also hide the application/pgp-encrypted part as it can only contain
"Version: 1". We do this in notmuch show, which means it also happens
when replying.
Pass in GMimeMessage to simplify To/Cc/Bcc headers. We'll eventually
remove the notmuch message passing altogether, but keep both for now
to not make too big changes at once.
Getting the headers from GMimeMessage using GMime functions fixes the
error on duplicate Cc headers reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
<dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in id:87d1ngv95p.fsf@alice.fifthhorseman.net.
Get rid of an intermediate function.
The small annoyance is the ownership differences in the address lists.
As Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> reports in
id:87d1ngv95p.fsf@alice.fifthhorseman.net, notmuch show combines
multiple Cc: fields into one, while notmuch reply does not. While such
messages are in violation of RFC 5322, it would be reasonable to
expect notmuch to be consistent. Add a known broken test to document
this expectation.
This also starts a new "broken" corpus for messages which are broken.
Details:
The original message is formatted using the message printing in
notmuch-show.c. For Cc:, it uses g_mime_message_get_recipients(),
which apparently combines all Cc: fields into one internally.
The addresses in the reply headers, OTOH, are based on headers queried
through libnotmuch. It boils down to g_mime_object_get_header() in
lib/message-file.c, which returns only the first occurence of header.
We largely use the corpus under test/corpus for
testing. Unfortunately, many of our tests have grown to depend on
having exactly this set of messages, making it hard to add new message
files for testing specific cases.
We do use a lot of add_message from within the tests, but it's not
possible to use that for adding broken messages, and adding several
messages at once can get unwieldy.
Move the basic corpus under tests/corpora/default, and make it
possible to add new, independent corpora along its side. This means
tons of renames with a few tweaks to add_email_corpus function in
test-lib.sh to let tests specify which corpus to use.
Originally the intent was to make the test more robust against changing
test keys. It turns out that (unscientifically) gpg --with-colons output
changes more often than our test key. Rather than making the script more
complex, just hard code the fingerprint.
This fixes Debian bug #847013; I expect similar test failures as other
distros adopt gnupg 2.1.15
With all the preparation it is now simple to add the actual insert
code. Since insert can fail for many reasons we let the user decide
interactively deal with it.
We modify test-lib.el to set file fcc, so that all the old tests and
emacs_fcc_message from test-lib.sh still work
gdb sometimes writes warnings to stdout, which we don't need/want, and
for some reason --batch-silent isn't enough to hide. So in this commit
we write them to a log file, which is probably better for debugging
anyway. To see an illustrative test failure before this change, run
% make
% touch notmuch-count.c
% cd test && ./T060-count.sh
(cherry picked from commit f45fa5bdd3)
The User-Agent: header can be fun and interesting, but it also leaks
quite a bit of information about the user and their software stack.
This represents a potential security risk (attackers can target the
particular stack) and also an anonymity risk (a user trying to
preserve their anonymity by sending mail from a non-associated account
might reveal quite a lot of information if their choice of mail user
agent is exposed).
This change also avoids hiding the User-Agent header by default, so
that people who decide they want to send it will at least see it (and
can edit it if they want to) before sending.
It makes sense to have safer defaults.
Previously notmuch-wash made the width of the text (approximately) the
window-width minus the depth in thread. This is correct for the
default indentation of 1 per message depth, but is incorrect for any
other setting of notmuch-show-indent-messages-width.
As notmuch-show-indent-messages-width is customisable, and notmuch-tree
sets it to zero to avoid indenting messages in the message pane, this
bug can show up in real use.
Two of the tests had to be updated: when
notmuch-show-indent-messages-width is 0, then the new (correct) word
wrapping happens later, when notmuch-show-indent-messages-width is 4,
then the new word wrapping happens sooner.

This has been wrong since bbbdf0478e, but the race condition was not
previously been (often?) triggered in the tests. With the DB_RETRY_LOCK
patches, it manifests itself as a deadlock.
This support will be present only if the appropriate version of xapian
is available _and_ the user did not disable the feature when
building. So there really needs to be some way for the user to check.

A few simple things that applies well to test/notmuch-test.sh
- Shell does pathname expansion also without doing `echo ...` in subshell.
- Redirections >/dev/null 2>/dev/null hide (improbable but) potential
serious errors; adding -f to rm instead.
- Inter-file capitalization consistency in comments.
- Unnecesary space removal.
The trick of having a common header file doesn't work to share between
test scripts, so make an include file in the test directory.
The use of #include <notmuch-test.h> looks slightly pretentious, but
the include file is not actually in the current (temporary) directory.
Place PYTHONPATH to the environment when python is executed in a way
that current shell environment is not affected. This also allows adding
the old value of PYTHONPATH to the end of the new value (otherwise it
would have been appended again and again when test_python is called).
At the same time, use -B option to avoid writing .pyc files to
bindings/python/* (which are not cleared out by distclean).
Drop the (unused) prefix code which preserved the original stdout of the
python program and opened sys.stdout to OUTPUT. In place of that there
is now note how (debug) information can be printed to original stdout.
Previously LD_LIBRARY_PATH was exported (and environment changed)
in the middle of test case execution, when a function setting it
was called.
Previously the old contents of LD_LIBRARY_PATH was lost (if any)
when it was re-set and exported. In some systems the old contents of
LD_LIBRARY_PATH was needed to e.g. locate suitable gmime library.
In scripts that include test-lib-common.sh but not test-lib.sh
the die() implementation needs to be a bit different due to
fd redirection differences. test-lib-common.sh implements die()
only if it was not implemented already.
Added die() function to test-lib.sh with the following first use of it:
If notmuch new fails during email corpus addition the database is
most probably inexistent or broken and the added corpus would be
unusable while running single tests, giving misleading failures
("only" full 'make test' cleans out old corpus).
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.
Most of the infrastructure here is general, only the validation/dispatch
is hardcoded to a particular prefix.
A notable change in behaviour is that notmuch-config now opens the
database e.g. on every call to list, which fails with an error message
if the database doesn't exit yet.
Since xapian provides the ability to restrict the iterator to a given
prefix, we expose this ability to the user. Otherwise we mimic the other
iterator interfances in notmuch (e.g. tags.c).
This is a thin wrapper around the Xapian metadata API. The job of this
layer is to keep the config key value pairs from colliding with other
metadata by transparently prefixing the keys, along with the usual glue
to provide a C interface.
The split of _get_config into two functions is to allow returning of the
return value with different memory ownership semantics.
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
Files in test directories had only copyright of a single individual,
of which code was adapted here as a base of the test system.
Since then many Notmuch Developers have contributed to the test
system, which is now acknowledged with a constant string in some
of the test files.
The README file in test directory instructed new files contain a
copyright notice, but that has never been done (and it is also not
needed). To simplify things a bit (and lessen confusion) this
instruction is now removed.
As a side enchangement, all of the 3 entries in the whole source
tree cd'ing to `dirname` of "$0" now uses syntax cd "$(dirname "$0")".
This makes these particular lines work when current working directory
is e.g. /c/Program Files/notmuch/test/.
(Probably it would fail elsewhere, though.)
In case of notmuch reply and notmuch show --part=N it is required that
search terms match to one message. If match count was != 1, error
message "Error: search term did not match precisely one message"
was too vague to explain what happened.
By appending (matched <num> messages) to the error message it
makes the problem more understandable (e.g when <num> is '0'
user reckons the query had a typo in it).
To fully complete the ghost-on-removal-when-shared-thread-exists
proposal, we need to clear all ghost messages when the last active
message is removed from a thread.
Amended by db: Remove the last test of T530, as it no longer makes sense
if we are garbage collecting ghost messages.
implement ghost-on-removal, the solution to T590-thread-breakage.sh
that just adds a ghost message after removing each message.
It leaks information about whether we've ever seen a given message id,
but it's a fairly simple implementation.
Note that _resolve_message_id_to_thread_id already introduces new
message_ids to the database, so i think just searching for a given
message ID may introduce the same metadata leakage.
This test (T590-thread-breakage.sh) has known-broken subtests.
If you have a two-message thread where message "B" is in-reply-to "A",
notmuch rightly sees this as a single thread.
But if you:
* remove "A" from the message store
* run "notmuch new"
* add "A" back into the message store
* re-run "notmuch new"
Then notmuch sees the messages as distinct threads.
This happens because if you insert "B" initially (before anything is
known about "A"), then a "ghost message" gets added to the database in
reference to "A" that is in the same thread, which "A" takes over when
it appears.
But if "A" is subsequently removed, no ghost message is retained, so
when "A" appears, it is treated as a new thread.
I see a few options to fix this:
ghost-on-removal
----------------
We could unilaterally add a ghost upon message removal. This has a
few disadvantages: the message index would leak information about what
messages the user has ever been exposed to, and we also create a
perpetually-growing dataset -- the ghosts can never be removed.
ghost-on-removal-when-shared-thread-exists
------------------------------------------
We could add a ghost upon message removal iff there are other
non-ghost messages with the same thread ID.
We'd also need to remove all ghost messages that share a thread when
the last non-ghost message in that thread is removed.
This still has a bit of information leakage, though: the message index
would reveal that i've seen a newer message in a thread, even if i had
deleted it from my message store
track-dependencies
------------------
rather than a simple "ghost-message" we could store all the (A,B)
message-reference pairs internally, showing which messages A reference
which other messages B.
Then removal of message X would require deleting all message-reference
pairs (X,B), and only deleting a ghost message if no (A,X) reference
pair exists.
This requires modifying the database by adding a new and fairly weird
table that would need to be indexed by both columns. I don't know
whether xapian has nice ways to do that.
scan-dependencies
-----------------
Without modifying the database, we could do something less efficient.
Upon removal of message X, we could scan the headers of all non-ghost
messages that share a thread with X. If any of those messages refers
to X, we would add a ghost message. If none of them do, then we would
just drop X entirely from the table.
---------------------
One risk of attempted fixes to this problem is that we could fail to
remove the search term indexes entirely. This test contains
additional subtests to guard against that.
This test also ensures that the right number of ghost messages exist
in each situation; this will help us ensure we don't accumulate ghosts
indefinitely or leak too much information about what messages we've
seen or not seen, while still making it easy to reassemble threads
when messages come in out-of-order.
The code to skip multiple slashes in _notmuch_database_split_path()
skips back one character too much. This is compensated by a +1 in the
length parameter to the strndup() call. Mostly this works fine, but if
the path is to a file under a top level directory with one character
long name, the directory part is mistaken to be part of the file name
(slash == path in code). The returned directory name will be the empty
string and the basename will be the full path, breaking the indexing
logic in notmuch new.
Fix the multiple slash skipping to keep the slash variable pointing at
the last slash, and adjust strndup() accordingly.

Author: Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org>

database: Store the parent ID for each directory document.
just a little over two months after the initial commit in the Notmuch
code history, making this the longest living bug in Notmuch to date.
In several places in the test suite we intentionally corrupt the Xapian
database in order to test error handling. This corruption is specific to
the on-disk organization of the database, and that changed with the
glass backend. We use the previously computed default backend to make
the tests adapt to changing names.
This is mainly for the test suite. We already expect the tests to be
run in the same environment as configure was run, at least to get the
name of the python interpreter. So we are not really imposing a new
restriction.
This should potentially be updated to have an equivalent optimization
for the glass backend, but it in my unscientific tests, the glass backend
without the optimization is faster then the chert backend with.
When no decryption or signature examination is
happening (i.e. `notmuch-crypto-process-mime' is `nil') insert buttons
that indicate this, rather than remaining silent.
in d27d90875d (2016-02-20) notmuch-mua-reply-insert-header-p-function
was set to notmuch-show-reply-insert-header-p-never as its default was
changed to something else. Now that default is set back to *-never so
this change done in d27d90875d is not needed anymore.
We only need a long string, not a single long term to trigger batch
mode. The giant term triggers a bug/incompatibility in Xapian 1.3.4
that throws an exception because it is longer than the Xapian term size
limit.
Move the brief help text at the bottom of the hello screen to the
notmuch-hello-mode help, and promote '?' as the universal help key
across Notmuch. This unclutters the hello screen, and allows for a
more verbose description in the mode help. Hopefully, this change is
useful for both experienced and new users alike.
While at it, improve the links to Notmuch and hello screen
customization.
A while ago test script names were changed to format
Tddd-basename.sh. Update README to reflect that.
While at it, included some small requirements updates.
Add a customizable function specifying which parts get a header when
replying, and give some sensible possiblities. These are,
1) all parts except multipart/*. (Subparts of a multipart part do
receive a header button.)
2) only included text/* parts.
3) Exactly as in the show buffer.
4) None at all. This means the reply contains a mish-mash of all the
original message's parts.
In the test suite we set the choice to option 4 to match the
previous behaviour.
Use the message display code to generate message text to cite in
replies.
For now we set insert-headers-p function to
notmuch-show-reply-insert-header-p-never so that, as before, we don't
insert part buttons.
With that choice of insert-headers-p function there is only one
failing test: this test has a text part (an email message) listed as
application/octet-stream. Notmuch show displays this part, but the
reply code omitted it as it had type application/octet-stream. The new
code correctly includes it. Thus update the expected output to match.
notmuch-show --verify will now also process S/MIME multiparts if
encountered. Requires gmime-2.6 and gpgsm.
Based on work by Jameson Graef Rollins <jrollins@finestructure.net>.
The test is pretty much cut and paste from the PGP/MIME version, with
obvious updates taken from notmuch output. This also requires setting
up gpgsm infrastucture.
Test the ability of notmuch-mua-mail to send S/MIME signed (and
encrypted) messages; this really relies on existing functionality in
message-mode.
The generated keys and messages will later be useful for testing the
notmuch CLI.
ALTERNATE_EDITOR causes emacsclient to run an alternate editor if the
emacs server is not ready. This can collide with intended
functionality in test-lib.sh.
If the ALTERNATE_EDITOR is set but empty, emacsclient runs emacs
daemon and tries to connect to it. When this happens the emacs run by
test-lib.sh fails to start the server and the subsequent attempts to
use the server fail because the daemon started by emacsclient does not
know about notmuch-test-progn. This leads to test suite failure due to
time out on any emacs test.
When notmuch sources are at a symlinked path, some tests fail because
one part of the test uses physical path and another uses logical
path (with symlinks). For example the following test output is
produced when the test is started from /home/src/symlink-to-notmuch,
which is a symlink to /home/src/notmuch.

Of course I can't duplicate the mentioned problem, it probably depends
on specific message data.
Per RFC 2183, the values for Content-Disposition values are not
case-sensitive. While at it, use the gmime function for getting at the
disposition string instead of referencing the field directly.
This fixes "attachment" tagging and filename term generation for
attachments while indexing.
There was a problem with the directory documents being left behind when
the filesystem directory was removed. This was worked around in [1].
However, that ignored the fact that the directory documents are also
still listed by notmuch_directory_get_child_directories() leading to
confusing results when running notmuch new. The directory documents are
found and queued for removal over and over again.
Fix the problem for real by removing the directory documents. This fixes
the tests flagged as broken in [2].
The (non-deterministic) hack test from [3] also still passes with this
change.

breakage with (lack of) directory deletion.

First a simple smoke test first, next generate messages with multiple
email address variants and check the behaviour of deduplication
schemes with these.
It doesn't seem likely we can support simple date:<expr> expanding to
date:<expr>..<expr> any time soon. (This can be done with a future
version of Xapian, or with a custom query query parser.) In the mean
time, provide shorthand date:<expr>..! to mean the same. This is
useful, as the expansion takes place before interpetation, and we can
use, for example, date:yesterday..! to match from beginning of
yesterday to end of yesterday.
Idea from Mark Walters <markwalters1009@gmail.com>.
It isn't completely clear what we want to do here, but
1) We currently don't fail if we skip a whole test file (mainly because
we neglect to count those skipped tests properly). This change at least
makes the two kinds of skipping consistent.
2) Automated build environments may have good reasons for building with
a minimal set of prereqs, and we don't want to discourage running our
test suite by breaking builds.
Check argc mainly to fix unused parameter warning:
test/symbol-test.cc:7:14: warning: unused parameter ‘argc’ [-Wunused-parameter]
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
^
This makes more sense than telling the compiler it's unused on
purpose.
This brings back status information that may have been hidden by the
great library logging conversion.
Note the change of the internal API / return-value for count_files. The
other count calls to the lib will also get error handling when that API
is updated in the lib.
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 the short term we need a way to get lastmod information e.g. for
the test suite. In the long term we probably want to add lastmod
information to at least the structured output for several other
clients (e.g. show, search).
This exposes the committed database revision to library users along
with a UUID that can be used to detect when revision numbers are no
longer comparable (e.g., because the database has been replaced).
The files (test) scripts source (with builtin command `.`) provides
information which the scripts depend, and without the `source` to
succeed allowing script to continue may lead to dangerous situations
(e.g. rm -rf "${undefined_variable}"/*).
At the end of all source (.) lines construct ' || exit 1' was added;
In our case the script script will exit if it cannot find (or read) the
file to be sourced. Additionally script would also exits if the last
command of the sourced file exited nonzero.
Previously we globally modified these variables, which tended to cause
problems for people using message-mode, but not notmuch-mua-mail, to
send mail.
User visible changes:
- Calling notmuch-fcc-header-setup is no longer optional. OTOH, it
seems to do the right thing if notmuch-fcc-dirs is set to nil.
- The Fcc header is visible during message composition
- The name in the mode line is changed, and no longer matches exactly
the menu label.
- Previously notmuch-mua-send-and-exit was never called. Either we
misunderstood define-mail-user-agent, or it had a bug. So there was
no difference if the user called message-send-and-exit directly. Now
there will be.
- User bindings to C-c C-c and C-c C-s in message-mode-map are
overridden. The user can override them in notmuch-message-mode-map,
but then they're on their own for Fcc handling.
I marked the tests where I really couldn't understand the output as
broken. It could also be that I don't understand how directory removal
is supposed to work.
Try to narrow down what part of the code adds files and directories to
the queue(s) to be deleted.
Update one test. The output is slightly confusing, but I believe it is
correct, resulting from a directory being discovered but containing only ignored files.
The configure script chooses "python" if both python and python{2,3}
exist exists, so this could change the version of python used to run
the test suite.
The checking for ${NOTMUCH_PYTHON} in the test suite is arguably
over-engineering, since the configure step will fail if it can't find
it.
There are many places in the notmuch code where the path is assumed to be absolute. If someone (TM) wants a project, one could remove these assumptions. In the mean time, prevent users from shooting themselves in the foot.
Update test suite mark tests for this error as no longer broken, and
also convert some tests that used relative paths for nonexistent
directories.
The difference with FILE_ERROR is that this is for things that are
wrong with the path before looking at the disk.
Add some 3 tests; two broken as a reminder to actually use this new
code.
In the case the these tests fail, they generate a bunch of output;
this output is not very interesting because it is just the successful
output of a man page. It does however make it hard to see what tests are actually failing, even with NOTMUCH_TEST_QUIET
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.
Quoting Debian bug 787341
It failed to build on arm64: the last ten tests in T070-insert
failed.
What's happening here is that GDB is segfaulting in response to
the
"file" command. GDB on arm64 can be a bit buggy.
However, the "file" command is redundant here as GDB has already
got
the file from the --args on the command line.
Apparently some systems actually have a directory called /nonexist[ae]nt.
It's hard to fathom a good reason for that, but oh well. As long as we
don't create such a directory inside the notmuch source tree, the new
version should be more robust.
When creating $THREADS data it may end of not having 'None' at all
or the numbers in line output yields a loop.
To avoid loop the value in current array index is set to 'None'
so that if the same item is reached again the loop will end.
Also empty string as next array index will end the loop.
This is not supposed to change any functionality from an end user
point of view. Note that it will eliminate some output to stderr. The
query debugging output is left as is; it doesn't really fit with the
current primitive logging model. The remaining "bad" fprintf will need
an internal API change.
The compatibility wrapper ensures that clients calling
notmuch_database_open will receive consistent output for now.
The changes to notmuch-{new,search} and test/symbol-test are just to
make the test suite pass.
The use of IGNORE_RESULT is justified by two things. 1) I don't know
what else to do. 2) asprintf guarantees the output string is NULL if
an error occurs, so at least we are not passing garbage back.
This is to limit the copy-pasta involved in running C tests. I decided
to keep things simple and not try to provide an actual C skeleton.
The setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH is to force using the built libnotmuch
rather than any potential system one.
This is arguably testing the same thing twice, but in the brave new
future where we don't use printf anymore, each subcommand will be
responsible for handling the output on it's own.
Previously we set up a way for the top level notmuch command to choose
which gpg binary was invoked by libgmime. In this commit we add the
(mostly boilerplate) code to allow the notmuch-config command to read
and write this path, and use it in the appropriate struct.
Update tests for new default variable
If seconds are not specified in the string to be parsed, they're not
set according to the reference time (in the no rounding case) nor
rounded properly (in the rounding up cases). Fix this.
The bug caused searches such as date:10:30..10:30 to match messages
with date exactly 10:30:00 only, and not in range 10:30:00..10:30:59
(inclusive) as documented.
Note that date searches referring "noon" or "5pm" will still be
interpreted as exact to the second.
Extract and add some more tests relating to rounding seconds into a
separate subtest, and flag it as broken. If seconds are not specified,
the time is not set or rounded according to the interface defined in
parse-time-string/parse-time-string.h. Instead, seconds are always set
to 00 in reality, which is broken.
Set the reference time to 12:13:14 instead of 11:11:00 to ensure hours
and minutes are not mixed up, and seconds are really set instead of
defaulted to 00.
This adds the indexing support for the "mimetype:" term and removes
the broken test flag. The indexing is probablistic in Xapian terms,
which gives a better experience to end users. Standard content-types
of the form "foo/bar" are automatically interpreted as phrases in
Xapian due to the embedded slash.
Assume, separate messages with application/pdf and application/x-pdf
are indexed, then:
- mimetype:application/x-pdf will find only the application/x-pdf
- mimetype:application/pdf will find only the application/pdf
- mimetype:pdf will find both of the messages
Adds three failing unit tests for searching of mime-types.
An attempt was made at adding a negative test (i.e. searching for a
non-existent mime-type and ensuring it didn't return a message), but
that test would always pass making it pointless.
When something in tests fails one possibility to test is to run
the test script as `bash -x TXXX-testname.sh`. As stderr (fd 2) was
redirected to separate file during test execution also this set -x
(xtrace) output would also go there.
test-lib.sh saves the stderr to fd 7 from where it can be restored,
and bash has BASH_XTRACEFD variable, which is now given the same value
7, making bash to output all xtrade information (consistently) there.
This lib file used to save fd's 1 & 2 to 6 & 7 (respectively) in
test_begin_subtest(), but as those needs to be set *before* XTRACEFD
variable is set those are now saved at the beginning of the lib (once).
This is safe and simple thing to do.
To make xtrace output more verbose PS4 variable was set to contain the
source file, line number and if execution is in function, that function
name. Setting this variable has no effect when not xtracing.
As it is known that fd 6 is redirected stdout, printing status can now
use that fd, instead of saving stdout to fd 5 and use it.
At the moment, the test-lib fills in any missing headers. This makes
it impossible to test our handling of empty subjects. This will
allow us to use a special dummy subject -- `@FORCE_EMPTY` -- to force
the subject to remain empty.
We generally do not support mbox files, but for historical reasons
we've supported single-message mbox files, with a deprecation
message. We've tried dropping the support altogether, but backed out
of it because we'd need to stop indexing them, while keeping support
for previously indexed files. This would be more complicated than
simply supporting single-message mbox files. Therefore, drop the
deprecation message, and just silently accept single-message mboxes.
Currently, if a From-header is of the form:
"" <address@example.com>
the empty string will be treated as a valid real-name, and the entry
in the search results will be empty.
The new behavior here is that we treat an empty real-name field as if
it were null, so that the email address will be used in the search
results instead.

We test for whether a quoted empty email address
"" <address@example.com>
will show up as the address, instead of the empty string. This is
marked as known-broken, since the current behavior is to use the empty
string.
This is a new test file, since handling of unusual email addresses
doesn't seem to fit well in any of our existing tests.

This filters out duplicate addresses from address command output.
It also also adds tests for the address command.
The code here is an extended version of a patch from Jani Nikula.
python3 doesn't allow dictionaries to be initialized with non-string
keywords. This presents problems on systems in which "python" means
"python3". We instead initalize the dictionary using the dict
comprehension and then update it with the values from the tree. This
will work with both python2 and python3.
Apparently the test binaries are built with minimal LDFLAGS, only
adding dependency specific LDFLAGS as needed. However because some of
the test binaries incorporate notmuch object files, it is necessary to
use the same link flags as notmuch. For example user provided
CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS/LDFLAGS with -fsanitize=undefined fails to build the
test binaries if the flags differ.
In emacs 24.4 the messages buffer starts being read-only, which kills
these tests. This seems to be the point of the variable
inihibit-read-only, which has existed at least since emacs 21.
After yet another variation in objdump output caused this test to fail

worth the maintenence headache.
This version uses nm -P. nm -P should be portable, and fixed format.

Previously, if the user ran any subcommand that required a
configuration (e.g., notmuch new) but didn't have a configuration,
notmuch would give the rather un-friendly and un-actionable message
Error reading configuration file .notmuch-config: No such file or directory
Since this condition is expected for new users, this patch adds
specific handling for the file-not-found case to give a message that
is friendly and actionable.
The version number has always been pretty meaningless to the user and
it's about to become even more meaningless with the introduction of
"features". Hopefully, the database will remain on version 3 for some
time to come; however, the introduction of new features over time in
version 3 will necessitate upgrades within version 3. It would be
confusing if we always tell the user they've been "upgraded to version
3". If the user wants to know what's new, they should read the news.
According to RFC2822 References and In-Reply-To headers are supposed
to contain one or more Message-IDs, however older RFC822 allowed
almost any content. When both References and In-Reply-To headers ends
with something else that a Message-ID (see e.g. [1]), the thread
structure presented by notmuch is incorrect. The reason is that
notmuch treats this case as if the email contained no "replyto"
information (see _notmuch_database_link_message_to_parents).
This patch changes the parse_references() function to return the last
valid Message-ID encountered rather than NULL resulting from the last
hunk of text not being the Message-ID.

Previously the build system was generating automatic header
dependencies for test sources, but only smtp-dummy was in SRCS, so
only its dependencies were being included. Add all of the test
sources to SRCS so that the root Makefile.local includes their
dependencies.
This should help new users off to a better start with the addition of
more sensible saved searches and default shortcut keys. Most existing
users have probably customized this variable and won't be affected.
Dump currently only takes the read lock. Xapian can cope with some
changes while maintaining a read snapshot but with more changes it
fails. Currently notmuch just gives a xapian error.
To avoid this we take the write lock when dumping. This prevents other
notmuch processes from modifying the xapian database preventing this
error.
Discussion with Olly on irc indicates that this is currently the best
solution: in xapian trunk there may be better possibilities using
snapshots but they need to make it to a release and propogate out to
users before we can switch approach.
Finally, this breaks one use case: pipelines of the form
notmuch dump | ... | notmuch restore
According to Olly this is already very fragile: it will only work on
small databases. One of the tests relies on this behaviour so fix that
to store the dump rather than use a pipe.
These tests deliver all possible (single-root) four-message threads in
all possible orders and check that notmuch successfully links them
into threads. These tests supersede and replace the previous and much
less thorough "T260-thread-order" tests.
There are two variants of the test: one delivers messages that
reference only their immediate parent and the other delivers messages
that reference all of their parents. The latter test is currently
known-broken.
The unread/read changes will use the post-command-hook. test_emacs
does not call the post-command-hook. This adds a notmuch-test-progn
which takes a list of commands as argument and executes them in turn
but runs the post-command-hook after each one.
The caller can batch operations (ie to stop post-command-hook from
being interleaved) by wrapping the batch of operations inside a progn.
We also explicitly run the post-command-hook before getting the output
from a test; this makes sense as this will be a place the user would
be seeing the information.
This adds a 100 termpos gap between all phrases indexed by
_notmuch_message_gen_terms. This fixes a bug where terms from the end
of one header and the beginning of another header could match together
in a single phrase and a separate bug where term positions of
un-prefixed terms overlapped.
This fix only affects newly indexed messages. Messages that are
already indexed won't benefit from this fix without re-indexing, but
the fix won't make things any worse for existing messages.
This adds two known-broken tests and one working test related to the
term positions assigned to terms from different headers or MIME parts.
The first test fails because we don't create a termpos gap between
different headers. The second test fails because we don't adjust
termpos at all when indexing multiple parts.
Previously, we indexed the name and address parts of from/to headers
with two calls to _notmuch_message_gen_terms. In general, this
indicates that these parts are separate phrases. However, because of
an implementation quirk, the two calls to _notmuch_message_gen_terms
generated adjacent term positions for the prefixed terms, which
happens to be the right thing to do in this case, but the wrong thing
to do for all other calls. Furthermore, _notmuch_message_gen_terms
produced potentially overlapping term positions for the un-prefixed
copies of the terms, which is simply wrong.
This change indexes both the name and address in a single call to
_notmuch_message_gen_terms, indicating that they should be part of a
single phrase. This masks the problem with the un-prefixed terms
(fixing the two known-broken tests) and puts us in a position to fix
the unintentionally phrases generated by other calls to
_notmuch_message_gen_terms.
Two of these are currently known-broken. We index the name and
address parts in two separate calls to _notmuch_message_gen_terms.
Currently this has the effect of placing the term positions of the
prefixed terms from the second call right after those of the first
call, but screws up the term positions of the non-prefixed terms.
Two of the search tests for "from" and "to" queries were clearly
trying to search for prefixed phrases, but forgot to shell quote the
phrases. Fix this by quoting them correctly.
This is effectively a revert of

lib: drop support for single-message mbox files
The intention was to drop support for indexing new single-message mbox
files (and whether that was a good idea in the first place is
arguable). However this inadvertently broke support for reading
headers from previously indexed single-message mbox files, which is
far worse.
Distinguishing between the two cases would require more code than
simply bringing back support for single-message mbox files.
At least in emacs24, this removes the "site-lisp" directories from the
load path in addition to enforcing --no-site-lisp --no-init-file.
This works around a slightly mysterious bug on Debian that causes
test-lib.el not to load when there is cl-lib.el(c) in some site-lisp
directory. It should be harmless in general since we really don't
want to load any files from addon packages to emacs.
It turns out to be inconvenient to delete the downloaded datafiles with
distclean, so I propose a new target which does that instead.
The closest conventional target is 'maintainer-clean'; the difference
here is that having the original source tarball is not enough to
reconstruct these files.
The linking to talloc is hard-coded in the testing Makefile. This patch
causes the linking to talloc to be done according to how TALLOC_LDFLAGS
was configured.

- The old test was quite impossible to debug; the new one shows the difference
between the two directories, if any.
- "repository" doesn't make sense for out of tree builds. Or tarball
builds, for that matter.
All we do here is calculate the backup filename, and call the existing
dump routine.
Also take the opportunity to add a message about being safe to
interrupt.
The main goal is to support gzipped output for future internal
calls (e.g. from notmuch-new) to notmuch_database_dump.
The additional dependency is not very heavy since xapian already pulls
in zlib.
We want the dump to be "atomic", in the sense that after running the
dump file is either present and complete, or not present. This avoids
certain classes of mishaps involving overwriting a good backup with a
bad or partial one.
We've supported mbox files containing a single message for historical
reasons, but the support has been deprecated, with a warning message
while indexing, since Notmuch 0.15. Finally drop the support, and
consider all mbox files non-email.
Previously, the term escaper used a blacklist of characters that
needed escaping. This blacklist turned out to be somewhat incomplete;
for example, it did not contain non-whitespace ASCII control
characters or Unicode "fancy quotes", both of which do require the
term to be escaped.
Switch to a whitelist of characters that are definitely safe to leave
unquoted. This fixes the broken test introduced by the previous
patch.
The current term escaper gets most of these right, but fails to escape
things containing Unicode "fancy quotes" or things containing
non-whitespace control characters.
I still have one machine with old enough Xapian to not have compaction
support. Make the tests check for unsupported compact operation when
compact is not available.
This allows (and requires) the original-tags to be passed along with
the current-tags to be passed to notmuch-tag-format-tags. This allows
the tag formatting to show added and deleted tags.By default a removed
tag is displayed with strike-through in red (if strike-through is not
available, eg on a terminal, inverse video is used instead) and an
added tag is displayed underlined in green.
If the caller does not wish to use the new feature it can pass
current-tags for both arguments and, at this point, we do exactly that
in the three callers of this function.
Note, we cannot tidily allow original-tags to be optional because we would
need to distinguish nil meaning "we are not specifying original-tags"
from nil meaning there were no original-tags (an empty list).
We use this in subsequent patches to make it clear when a message was
unread when you first loaded a show buffer (previously the unread tag
could be removed before a user realised that it had been unread).
The code adds into the existing tag formatting code. The user can
specify exactly how a tag should be displayed normally, when deleted,
or when added.
Since the formatting code matches regexps a user can match all deleted
tags with a ".*" in notmuch-tag-deleted-formats. For example setting
notmuch-tag-deleted-formats to '((".*" nil)) tells notmuch not to show
deleted tags at all.
All the variables are customizable; however, more complicated cases
like changing the face depending on the type of display will require
custom lisp.
Currently this overrides notmuch-tag-deleted-formats for the tests
setting it to '((".*" nil)) so that they get removed from the display
and, thus, all tests still pass.
It turns out there was a reason the old man pages were stored in a man
compatible hierarchy, namely so that we could run man on them before
installing.
Hardcode doc build location into test suite. This isn't ideal, but
let's unbreak the test suite for now.
The checksum file is used by the test infrastructure to verify the downloaded
test database is the one we had in mind. Note that this test is
rather strict, and the the checksum file needs to be recommitted when
the database is regenerated.
add a pattern .gitignore to ignore the actual databases
Test the upgrade from probabilistic to boolean folder: terms, and
addition of path: terms.
The test depends on the pre-built test corpus and database tarball and
checksum file being in place. If it's not, the test is skipped. The
mechanism to fetch the test database will be added later.
At the time of writing, a working test database and checksum file is
available at
http://notmuchmail.org/releases/test-databases/
It has been noted that some non-GNU environments make lack
sha256sum. We leave this portability issue for a followup patch.
In xapian terms, convert folder: prefix from probabilistic to boolean
prefix, matching the paths, relative from the maildir root, of the
message files, ignoring the maildir new and cur leaf directories.
folder:foo matches all message files in foo, foo/new, and foo/cur.
folder:foo/new does *not* match message files in foo/new.
folder:"" matches all message files in the top level maildir and its
new and cur subdirectories.
This change constitutes a database change: bump the database version
and add database upgrade support for folder: terms. The upgrade also
adds path: terms.
Finally, fix the folder search test for literal folder: search, as
some of the folder: matching capabilities are lost in the
probabilistic to boolean prefix change.
We will need this for improved folder search tests, but having some
folders should exercise our code paths better anyway.
Modify the relevant test accordingly to make it pass.
This reorganization triggers a bug in the test suite, namely that it
expects the output of --output=files to be in a certain order. So we
add the fix for that into the same commit.
This mainly involves sorting, although the case --duplicate=$n
requires more subtlety.
Sanitize tabs and newlines to spaces rather than question marks in
--output=summary --format=text output.
This will also hide any difference in unfolding a header that has been
folded with a tab. Our own header parser replaces tabs with spaces,
while gmime would retain the tab.
The printf builtin "%(fmt)T" specifier (which allows time values
to use strftime-like formatting) is introduced in bash 4.2.
Trying to execute this in pre-4.2 bash will fail -- and if this
happens execute the fallback piece of perl code to do the same thing.
The test names assigned to NOTMUCH_SKIP_TESTS variable can now be given
with or without the Tddd- prefix for tester convenience:
The test name without Tddd -prefix stays constant even when test filenames
are renumbered.
The test name with Tddd -prefix is printed out when tests run.
According the semantics of make, the expansion of $(dir) in recipes
uses dynamic scope, i.e. the value at the time the recipe is run. This
means if test/Makefile.local is not the last sub-makefile included,
all heck breaks loose.
Previously, we stripped the "Tnnn-" part from the test name when
printing its description at the beginning of each test. However, this
makes it difficult to find the source script for a test (e.g., when a
test fails). Put this prefix back.
Searching by Message-Id no longer works via the old mail-archive.com
API, though I have contacted them in hopes that they restore it to
prevent dead links. Anyway, the new API is cleaner.

Script `notmuch-test` expects the results file have T\d\d\d- part
intact so the results files (and some test output files) are now
name as such.
Without this change `notmuch-test` will exit in case the test
script it was executing exited with nonzero value.
The T\d\d\d- part is dropped in new variable $this_test_bare which is
used in progress informational messages and when loading .el files in
emacs tests (whenever $this_test_bare.el exists).
If there is a syntax error in the emacs test library, it causes other
tests to hang or crash without a useful error message.
This test could be eliminated if the error reporting for emacs tests
was somehow improved.
All test scripts to be executed are now named as T\d\d\d-name.sh,
numers in increments of 10.
This eases adding new tests and developers to see which are test scripts
that are executed by test suite and in which order.
When naming test scripts in format 'T\d\d\d-name.sh' the list of
tests to run are created dynamically. This makes test
'Ensure that all available tests will be run by notmuch-test'
in test/basic obsolete.
Previously the tags on each line in tree view were separarted by ", "
not just " ". This is different from show and search views.
This patch removes this comma. This is a large patch as essentially
every line of each of the expected outputs in the tree tests needs
updating.
Apart from aesthetic reasons this simplifies the switch to
notmuch-tag-format-tags in the next patch.
In some environments (at least Hurd), process-attributes is
unimplimented and always returns nil. This ends up causing test
failures (see e.g. id:87a9ffofsc.fsf@zancas.localnet).
Historically and according to POSIX 1003.1-2001, a signal of 0 can be
used to check the validity of a pid. This seems less heinous than
parsing the output of ps(1).
This fixes a non-deterministic failure in "Ignore files and
directories specified in new.ignore (multiple occurrences)". The test
assumed that all directories would be scanned, even though nothing
updated the mtime of ${MAIL_DIR}. It *usually* worked nevertheless
because the tests run quickly enough that the directory mtime is
usually the same as the current time, so notmuch new does not update
the mtime in the database (because more changes could occur in the
same second). However, when it occasionally did update the mtime in
the database, the notmuch new call in this test would (correctly) skip
"pass 2" of scanning ${MAIL_DIR}, causing it to skip the following
expected lines:
(D) add_files_recursive, pass 2: explicitly ignoring ${MAIL_DIR}/.git
(D) add_files_recursive, pass 2: explicitly ignoring ${MAIL_DIR}/.ignored_hidden_file
(D) add_files_recursive, pass 2: explicitly ignoring ${MAIL_DIR}/ignored_file
This patch fixes this problem by touching ${MAIL_DIR} to ensure it
gets scanned and by rearranging the test to ensure the directories are
touched immediately before the main notmuch new call in the test.
There is an obscure bug in notmuch-hello that very occasionally causes
emacs_deliver_message to fail. Since it it doesn't serve any actual
purpose in the function we delete it, and leave tracking down the the
bug for another day.
Most of the tests previously using emacs_deliver_message do not use
the actual transmitted message, so we replace it with a simpler (and
presumably more reliable function) that only saves (and indexes) an
fcc copy of the message.
When NOTMUCH_TEST_QUIET environment variable is set to non-null value
messages when new test script starts and when test PASSes are disabled.
This eases picking the cases when tests FAIL (as those are still printed).
In preparation for quiet mode print empty line before writing the
test description. This is done now in function designed for it --
it will also be called when test fails.
test-lib.sh sometimes did equivalent of `basename "$0" .sh`, sometimes
skipping the basename part and sometimes .sh part. This worked as
we never had path components in $0 (more than ./) nor .sh ending.
Now the equivalent of `basename "$0" .sh` is done once and used
everywhere. In the future we may have .sh suffix in test names
-- removing those is a good idea.
The choice of decreasing timestamps is a hack which reduces the number
of existing tests which fail. This can be changed to increasing
if/when somebody wants update another 47 tests.
add a new function notmuch_date_sanitize for rfc822-ish things. Add
date sanitization to notmuch_show_sanitize_all and use it more places.
This is all in aid of a transition to unique timestamps on messages.
Eventually we want test messages to have distinct dates to avoid
reproducability problems. This sanitization will prevent some test
failures when that change is made.
Replace the use of a local function in maildir-sync with
notmuch_json_show_sanitize
This was causing test failures because version strings varied in
length between GNU/Linux and GNU/KFreeBSD. One can also imagine
different versions of gnupg causing the same failure.
When executed command line is written to *Notmuch errors* buffer,
shell-quote-argument will backslash-escape any char that is not in
"POSIX filename characters" (i.e. matching "[^-0-9a-zA-Z_./\n]").
Currently in two emacs tests shell has expanded $PWD as part of
emacs variable, which will later be fed to #'shell-quote-argument
and finally written to ERROR file. If $PWD contained non-POSIX
filename characters, data in ERROR file will not match $PWD when
later comparing in shell. Therefore, in these two particular cases
the escaped $PWD is replaced with YYY in ERROR file and expected
content is adjusted accordingly.
This fixes races in thread-local and global tagging in notmuch-search
(e.g., "+", "-", "a", "*", etc.). Previously, these would modify tags
of new messages that arrived after the search. Now they only operate
on the messages that were in the threads when the search was
performed. This prevents surprises like archiving messages that
arrived in a thread after the search results were shown.
This eliminates `notmuch-search-find-thread-id-region(-search)'
because these functions strongly encouraged racy usage.
This fixes the two broken tests added by the previous patch.
These tests check that both thread-local and global search tagging
operations are race-free. They are currently known-broken because
they aren't race-free.
These queries will match exactly the set of messages currently in the
thread, even if more messages later arrive. Two queries are provided:
one for matched messages and one for unmatched messages.
This can be used to fix race conditions with tagging threads from
search results. While tagging based on a thread: query can affect
messages that arrived after the search, tagging based on stable
queries affects only the messages the user was shown in the search UI.
Since we want clients to be able to depend on the presence of these
queries, this ushers in schema version 2.
(Unfortunately, it's difficult to first demonstrate this problem with
a known-broken test because modern Linux kernels have argument length
limits in the megabytes, which makes Emacs really slow!)
It was looking in completely the wrong place for the backup and the
(test) xapian database. Unfortunately test_begin_subtest hides the
relevant errors.
Currently notmuch-show looks at the prefix-arg directly via
current-prefix-arg. This changes it to use the interactive
specification.
One test (for elide-toggle functionality) set the prefix arg
directly. Update this test to set the new argument directly.
One test (reply to encrypted message in the crypto test) recently
started failing on some systems. The failure I saw were two extra
lines of the form
<87d2nbc5xg.fsf@host.i-did-not-set--mail-host-address--so-tickle-me>
The test pipes the output through
grep -v -e '^In-Reply-To:' -e '^References:'
which would normally these two ids but it does not, in this case,
because they are so long they get put on a separate line in the output.
To fix this we set mail-host-address for emacs deliver. example.com
seems a sensible address to use. This is short enough that we don't
get the line breaks above and the tests then all pass.

Some common broken RFC 2047 encodings that we currently let gmime
parse strictly. We could tell gmime to be forgiving in what it accepts
as RFC 2047 encoding, making these tests pass.
When 'xpg_echo' bash shell option is unset (usually the default)
echo builtin does not expand backslash-escape sequences by default
(i.e. '\n' is echoed as '\n' instead of newline). Not all bash
installations have this feature we depend on activated by default.
Note that the feature is bash (and GNU /bin/echo) specific. It is used
as it is convenient. If portability is needed (elsewhere) use printf(1)
(also often available as a shell builtin).
If any of the tests in our test system is not passing the execution
of the test suite completes with nonzero exit value.
It is better to rely on the exit value of the test system instead
of some arbitrary strings in test output (or use both).
notmuch_message_tags_to_maildir_flags() unconditionally moves messages from
maildir directory "new/" to maildir directory "cur/", which makes messages lose
their "new" status in the MUA. However some users want to keep this "new"
status after, for instance, an auto-tagging of new messages.
However, as Austin mentioned and according to the maildir specification,
messages living in "new/" are not allowed to have flags, even if mutt allows it
to happen. For this reason, this patch prevents moving messages from "new/" to
"cur/", only if no flags have to be changed. It's hopefully enough to satisfy
mutt (and maybe other MUAs showing the "new" status) users checking the "new"
status.

update insert tests for new maildir synchronization rules
As of id:1355952747-27350-4-git-send-email-sojkam1@fel.cvut.cz
we are more conservative about moving messages from ./new to ./cur.

As mentioned by Jani Nikula in id:87vcccp4y3.fsf@nikula.org, some cases
of maildir synchronization are not covered by our tests. Let's add the
missing tests.
Some MUA's like mutt show the difference between "new" emails living in maildir
directory new/, and "old" emails living in maildir directory cur/. However
notmuch tag unconditionally moves selected messages from new/ to cur/, even if
no maildir synchronized tag is changed.
While maildir specification forbids messages with tags living in new/, there is
no need to move messages to cur/ when no maildir synchronized tag is changed.
Thus notmuch can remain transparent with respect to other MUA's.

RFC 2047 states that the encoding and charset in an encoded word are
case-insensitive, so force them to lower case in the reply test. This
fixes an issue caused by GMime versions (somewhere between 2.6.10 and
2.6.16), which changed the capitalization of the encoding.
Previously, reply's default text format used an odd mix of RFC 2045
MIME encoding for the reply template's body and some made-up RFC
2822-like UTF-8 format for the headers. The intent was to present the
headers to the user in a nice, un-encoded format, but this assumed
that whatever ultimately sent the email would RFC 2047-encode the
headers, while at the same time the body was already RFC 2045 encoded,
so it assumed that whatever sent the email would *not* re-encode the
body.
This can be fixed by either producing a fully decoded UTF-8 reply
template, or a fully encoded MIME-compliant RFC 2822 message. This
patch does the latter because it is
a) Well-defined by RFC 2822 and MIME (while any UTF-8 format would be
ad hoc).
b) Ready to be piped to sendmail. The point of the text format is to
be minimal, so a user should be able to pop up the template in
whatever editor they want, edit it, and push it to sendmail.
c) Consistent with frontend capabilities. If a frontend has the
smarts to RFC 2047 encode the headers before sending the mail, it
probably has the smarts to RFC 2047 decode them before presenting
the template to a user for editing.
Also, as far as I know, nothing automated consumes the reply text
format, so changing this should not cause serious problems. (And if
anything does still consume this format, it probably gets these
encoding issues wrong anyway.)
Previously, the References header code seemed to assume
notmuch_message_get_header would return NULL if the header was not
present, but it actually returns "". As a result of this, it was
inserting an unnecessary space when concatenating an empty or missing
original references header with the new reference.
This shows up in only two tests because the text reply format later
passes the whole reply template through g_mime_filter_headers, which
has the side effect of stripping out this extra space.
This switches `notmuch-mua-reply' and `notmuch-query-get-threads' to
the S-exp format. These were the last two uses of the JSON format in
the Emacs frontend.
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.
The find option syntax `-perm +111` is deprecated gnu find feature.
The replacement `( -perm -100 -o -perm -10 -o -perm 1 )` should also
work outside of the GNU domain.
In addition to being the Right Thing to do, this noticeably improves
the time taken to display the first page of search results, since it's
roughly an order of magnitude faster than the JSON parser.
Interestingly, it does *not* significantly improve the time to
completely fill a large search buffer because for large search
buffers, the cost of creating author invisibility overlays and
inserting text (which slows down with more overlays) dominates.
However, the time required to display the first page of results is
generally more important to the user experience.
Previously, search started the async notmuch process directly. Now,
it uses `notmuch-start-notmuch'. This simplifies the process sentinel
a bit and means that we no longer have to worry about errors
interleaved with the JSON output.
We also update the tests of Emacs error handling, since the error
output is now separated from the search results buffer.
We now check error handling more carefully in the last test in
test/emacs and we're about to add more error handling tests. (This
was also a strange place for this test, since it had nothing to do
with large search buffers.)
This unifies the part button actions and the underlying part action
functions into single interactive command that simply applies to the
part containing point using the just-added part p-list text property
instead of button properties. Since all part actions can be performed
by applying the appropriate mm function to an mm-handle, this patch
abstracts out the creation of mm handles, making the implementations
of the part commands trivial. This also eliminates our special
handling for part save in favor of using the appropriate mm function.
This necessarily modifies the way we handle the default part button
action, but in a way that does not change the meaning of the
notmuch-show-part-button-default-action defcustom.
Since these commands are no longer specific to buttons, this patch
eliminates the extra metadata stored with each button. This also
eliminates one rather special-purpose macro for a collection of
general purpose part handling utilities.
--stderr=FILE tests were added to test/help-test as it is the one
doing most global option testing. Also, it was simplest to test
this new option using `notmuch help` command.
Presently, the code which finds the parent of a message as it is being
added to the database assumes that the first Message-ID-like substring
of the In-Reply-To header is the parent Message ID. Some mail clients,
however, put stuff other than the Message-ID of the parent in the
In-Reply-To header, such as the email address of the sender of the
parent. This can fool notmuch.
The updated algorithm prefers the last Message ID in the References
header. The References header lists messages oldest-first, so the last
Message ID is the parent (RFC2822, p. 24). The References header is
also less likely to be in a non-standard
syntax (http://cr.yp.to/immhf/thread.html,
http://www.jwz.org/doc/threading.html). In case the References header
is not to be found, fall back to the old behavior.
V2 of this patch, incorporating feedback from Jani and (indirectly)
Austin.
The use of realpath(3) in
commit 58ed67992d
Author: Jani Nikula <jani@nikula.org>
Date: Sun Apr 7 20:15:03 2013 +0300
cli: config: do not overwrite symlinks when saving config file
broke config file save when the file does not exist, which results in
'notmuch setup' always failing to create a new config file.
Fix by checking ENOENT from realpath(3).
Use realpath to canonicalize the config path before writing.
Previously 'notmuch setup' and 'notmuch config set' overwrote the
config file even if it was a symbolic link.
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.
When execution of tests is interrupted by signal coming outside of the
test system itself, output just one line "interrupted by signal <num>"
message to standard output. This distinguishes the case from internal
exit and reduces noise.
Set the variable '$test_subtest_name' in all functions which starts
a new test and use that variable in all functions that output
test results.
Additionally output the latest '$test_subtest_name' in case of
abnormal exit, to avoid confusion.
Instead of checking immediately for the watched process, delay a
minute, or in the case that process-attributes returns nil, for two
minutes. This is intended to cope with the case that
process-attributes is unimplimented, and returns always returns nil.
In this case, the watchdog check is the same as the two minute limit
imposed by timeout.
The TERM environment variable is set to 'dumb' when running tests, but
the original value of it is stored for echoing colors and running emacs
(somewhat interactively) in detached session. Emacs requires some
terminal control sequences to be available for interactive operation.
In case original TERM is (also) 'dumb' (or unset/empty) emacs cannot
run interactively. To fix this problem dtach (and emacs as it's child
process) is run with TERM=vt100 in case original TERM was unset, empty
or 'dumb'. This way there is a chance to run emacs tests with different
user terminals and potentially find problems there.
This test also serves as documentation of the quoting
requirements. The comment lines are so that it exactly matches the man
page. Nothing more embarrassing than having an example in the man page
fail.
The (now fixed) bug that this test revealed is that unquoted
message-ids with whitespace or other control characters in them are
split into several tokens by the Xapian query parser.
This is based on the similar test for notmuch restore, but the parser
in batch tagging mode is less tolerant of a few cases, in particular
those tested by illegal_tag.
We recently switched to popping up a buffer to report CLI errors, but
this was too intrusive, especially for transient errors and especially
since we made fewer things ignore errors. This patch changes this to
display a basic error message in the minibuffer (using Emacs' usual
error handling path) and, if there are additional details, to log
these to a separate error buffer and reference the error buffer from
the minibuffer message. This is more in line with how Emacs typically
handles errors, but makes the details available to the user without
flooding them with the details.
Given this split, we pare down the basic message and make it more
user-friendly, and also make the verbose message even more detailed
(and more debugging-oriented).
This switches the new batch-tag format away from using a home-grown
hex-encoding scheme for message IDs in the dump to simply using Xapian
queries with Xapian quoting syntax.
This has a variety of advantages beyond presenting a cleaner and more
consistent interface. Foremost is that it will dramatically simplify
the quoting for batch tagging, which shares the same input format.
While the hex-encoding is no better or worse for the simple ID queries
used by dump/restore, it becomes onerous for general-purpose queries
used in batch tagging. It also better handles strange cases like
"id:foo and bar", since this is no longer syntactically valid.
When we switch to using regular Xapian queries in the dump format, \n
will cause problems, so we disallow it. Specially, while Xapian can
quote and parse queries containing \n without difficultly, quoted
queries containing \n still span multiple lines, which breaks the
line-orientedness of the dump format. Strictly speaking, we could
still round-trip these, but it would significantly complicate restore
as well as scripts that deal with tag dumps. This complexity would
come at absolutely no benefit: because of the RFC 2822 unfolding
rules, no amount of standards negligence can produce a message with a
message ID containing a line break (not even Outlook can do it!).
Hence, we simply disallow it.
This patch corrects several undesirable behaviours:
1) Empty files were not detected, leading to buffer read overrun.
2) An initial blank line cause restore to silently abort
3) Initial comment line caused format detection to fail
notmuch_json_show_sanitize replaced "filename" field values even in part
structures, where the value is predictable. Make it only normalize the
filename value if it is an absolute path (begins with slash), which is
true of the Maildir filenames that were intended to be normalized away.
This slightly changes the output of an existing test since we now
report non-zero exits with a pop-up buffer instead of at the end of
the search results.
* test/emacs:
- Rename subtests "{Add,Remove} tag from notmuch-show view" to
"notmuch-show: {add,remove} single tag {to,from} single message"
to be consistent with the following tests.
- New subtest "notmuch-show: add multiple tags to single message":
`notmuch-show-add-tag' ("+") can add multiple tags to a message.
- New subtest "notmuch-show: remove multiple tags from single message":
`notmuch-show-remove-tag' ("-") can remove multiple tags from a message.
We want to test both that error/warning messages are generated when
they should be, and not generated when they should not be. This varies
between restore and batch tagging.
These one need the completed functionality in notmuch-restore. Fairly
exotic tags are tested, but no weird message id's.
We test each possible input to autodetection, both explicit (with
--format=auto) and implicit (without --format).
The quoting for ${SEARCH} is broken when it's supposed to be '*', and
it seems tricky to get it right. Just drop the variable and use '*'
directly. Before this, none of the messages ever matched, and the test
was comparing zeros.
test_expect_equal_json uses json.tool from the system Python. While
Python 2 wasn't picky about the encoding of stdin, Python 3 decodes
stdin strictly according to the environment. Since we set LC_ALL=C
for the tests, Python 3's json.tool was assuming stdin would be in
ASCII and aborting when it couldn't decode the UTF-8 characters from
some of the JSON tests. This patch sets the PYTHONIOENCODING
environment variable to utf-8 when invoking json.tool to override
Python's default encoding choice.
Without this change, GCC complains as follows:
gcc test/random-corpus.o test/database-test.o notmuch-config.o command-line-arguments.o lib/libnotmuch.a util/libutil.a parse-time-string/libparse-time-string.a -o test/random-corpus -lgmime-2.6 -lgio-2.0 -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -ltalloc -lxapian

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [test/random-corpus] Error 1
We demonstrate the current notmuch restore parser being confused by
message-id's and tags containing non alpha numeric characters
(particularly space and parentheses are problematic because they are
not escaped by notmuch dump).
We save the files as hex escaped on disk so that terminal emulators
will not get confused if the test fails (as we mostly expect it to do).
Initial use case is testing dump and restore, so we only have
message-ids and tags.
The message ID's are nothing like RFC compliant, but it doesn't seem
any harder to roundtrip random UTF-8 strings than RFC-compliant ones.
Tags are UTF-8, even though notmuch is in principle more generous than
that.
updated for id:m2wr04ocro.fsf@guru.guru-group.fi
- talk about Unicode value rather some specific encoding
- call talloc_realloc less times
Initially, provide a way to create "stub" messages in the notmuch
database without corresponding files. This is essentially cut and
paste from lib/database.cc. This is a seperate file since we don't
want to export these symbols from libnotmuch or bloat the library with
non-exported code.
Previously, the test framework generated a variable name for each
external prereq as a poor man's associative array. Unfortunately,
prereqs names may not be legal variable names, leading to
unintelligible bash errors like
test_missing_external_prereq_emacsclient.emacs24_=t: command not found
Using proper associative arrays to track prereqs, in addition to being
much cleaner than generating variable names and using grep to
carefully construct unique string lists, removes restrictions on
prereq names.
Previously, if a test script aborted (e.g., because it passed too few
arguments to a test function), the test driver loop would simply
continue on to the next test script and the final results would
declare that everything passed (except that the test count would look
suspiciously low, but maybe you just misremembered how many tests
there were).
Now, if a test script exits with a non-zero status and did not produce
a final results file, we propagate that failure out of the driver loop
immediately.
To keep this simple, this patch removes the PID from the test-results
file name. This PID was inherited from the git test system and seems
unnecessary, since the file name already includes the name of the test
script and the test-results directory is created anew for each run.
And require that if TEST_EMACS is specified, so is TEST_EMACSCLIENT.
Previously, the test framework always used "emacsclient", even if the
Emacs in use was overridden by TEST_EMACS. This causes problems if
both Emacs 23 and Emacs 24 are installed, the Emacs 23 emacsclient is
the system default, but TEST_EMACS is set to emacs24. Specifically,
with an Emacs 24 server and an Emacs 23 client, emacs tests that run
very quickly may produce no output from emacsclient, causing the test
to fail.
The Emacs server uses a very simple line-oriented protocol in which
the client sends a request to evaluate an expression and the server
sends a request to print the result of evaluation. Prior to Emacs bzr
commit 107565 on March 11th, 2012 (released in Emacs 24.1), if
multiple commands were sent to the emacsclient between when it sent
the evaluation command and when it entered its receive loop, it would
only process the first response command, ignoring the rest of the
received buffer. This wasn't a problem with the Emacs 23 server
because it sent only the command to print the evaluation result.
However, the Emacs 24 server first sends an unprompted command
specifying the PID of the Emacs server, then processes the evaluation
request, then sends the command to print the result. If the
evaluation is fast enough, it can send both of these commands before
emacsclient enters the receive loop. Hence, if an Emacs 24 server is
used with an Emacs 23 emacsclient, it may miss the response printing
command, ultimately causing intermittent notmuch test failures.
Previously, many tests in emacs-subject-to-filename didn't quote the
$output argument to test_expect_equal. As a result, if $output was
empty, test_expect_equal would be passed only one argument and would
abort the entire test script. By quoting the argument, we ensure
test_expect_equal will always receive two arguments.
We now test for user ignore patterns before attempting to determine if
a directory entry is itself a directory. As a result, we no longer
abort for broken symlinks if the user has explicitly ignored them.
This fixes the test added in the previous patch. It also slightly
changes the debug output checked by another test of ignores.
The macro with-current-notmuch-show-message executes command
`notmuch show --format=raw id:...` which just outputs the contents
of the mail file verbatim (into temporary buffer). In case e.g. utf-8
locale is used the temporary buffer has buffer-file-coding-system as
utf-8. In this case Emacs converts the data to multibyte format, guessing
that input is in utf-8.
However, the "raw" (MIME) message may contain octet data in any other
8bit format, and as no (MIME-)content spesific handling to the message
is done at this point, conversion to other formats may lose information.
By setting coding-system-for-read 'no-conversion drops the conversion part
and makes this handle input as notmuch-get-bodypart-internal() does.
This marks the broken test in previous change fixed.
Previously, we would treat multi-message mboxes as one giant email,
which, besides the obvious incorrect indexing, often led to
out-of-memory errors for archival mboxes. Now we explicitly reject
multi-message mboxes. For historical reasons, we retain support for
single-message mboxes, but official deprecate this behavior.
This test is currently broken. Note that its brokenness cascades and
causes the next test to fail as well (because notmuch incorrectly
indexes the mbox file).
There are currently 45 TESTS scripts. 36 of those load
test-lib.sh using '. ./test-lib.sh' and 9 '. test-lib.sh'.
In latter case test-lib.sh is first searched from directories
in PATH (posix) and then from current directory (bash feature).
Changed the 9 files to execute '. ./test-lib.sh'. The test-lib.sh
should never be loaded from directory in PATH.
Previously, this would simply indicate that the grep failed without
any indication of the Emacs output it failed on. Now we take
advantage of the test framework's handling of stdout to display the
incorrect Emacs output if the test fails.
It seems we have never tested the case that restore --accumulate
actually adds tags. I noticed this when I started optimizing and no
tests failed.
The bracketing with "restore --input=dump.expected" are to make sure
we start in a known state, and we leave the database in a known state
for the next test.
The test designed to exercise Emacs' rendering of HTML emails
containing images inadvertently assumed w3m was available under Emacs
23. The real point of this test was to check that Emacs 24's shr
renderer didn't crash when given img tags, so use shr if it's
available, html2text otherwise (which is built in), and do only a
simple sanity check of the result.
This regexp agrees with Xapian query syntax much more closely, though
we specifically disallow various cases that would be confusing in the
context of an email body (e.g., punctuation at the end of an id: link
is not considered part of the id: link because it's probably part of
the surrounding text).
In particular, this handles id: links that are not surrounded by
quotes much better, which stash is much more likely to generate now
that we don't quote id's that don't need to be quoted. It also
handles quoted id: links better.
We update the buttonization test to reflect the new pattern.
This matches the current behavior of the buttonizer, so it passes, but
many of these cases are not what you'd want (and some of them aren't
even valid Xapian queries). The next patch will fix the handling of
these cases and update the test.
Over time, maintaining this very long regex has become irritating,
especially when resolving conflicts.
This patch replaces the call to sed with multiple extra arguments to
find. Since each test binary is now on it's own line, this should
make resolving conflicts easier.
Test the date/time parser module directly, independent of notmuch,
using the parse-time test tool.
