* Enable maildir synchronization by default.Carl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | This is a useful feature that most people should want, so enable it by default, (still allowing customization to disable it of course).
* notmuch config: Add more documentation for maildir.synchronize_flagsCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | Including details on which actual flags are synchronized with which tags.
* notmuch setup: Don't prompt about maildir synchronizationCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | This synchronization is one of those features that should just happen automatically. We allow for customization in case someone *really* wants to turn it off, but we don't need to prompt for this interactively. People with special needs can find the configuration file on their own.
* notmuch_message_tags_to_maildir_flags: Don't exit on failure to rename.Carl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | It is totally legitimate for a non-maildir directory to be named "new" (and not have a directory next to it named "cur"). To support this case at least, be silent about any rename failure.
* test: Drop test for propagating flag changes from one file to anotherCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | There's nothing in the current API documentation that would suggest the behavior being tested here. Attempt to implement this could have some nasty side effects, (such as notmuch_message_maildir_flags_to_tags implicitly calling notmuch_message_tags_to_maildir_flags and maybe even opening up some bad looping possibilities). Much better to stick with what we have documented, which we believe will actually be useful, (and easy enough to comprehend).
* notmuch_message_tags_to_maildir_flags: Fix to rename multiple filesCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | This function was documented as modifying every filename associated with the message. Fix it to actually do that.
* notmuch_filenames_create: Take a reference to underlying filename listCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | The notmuch_filenames_t object might easily outlive the original object owning the filename list. So take a talloc reference to keep things safe.
* maildir_flags_to_tags: Avoid interpreting "no info" as "no flags set".Carl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a filename has no maildir info at all, (that is, it does not contain the sequence ":2,"), we consider this distinct from a filename with an empty maildir info, (the ":2," separator is present, but no flags characters follow). Specifically, we regard a missing info field as providing no information, so tags will remain unchanged. On the other hand, an info field that is present but has no flags set will cause various tags to be cleared, (or in the case of "unread", added). This fixes the "remove info" case of the maildir-sync tests in the test suite.
* notmuch new: Defer maildir_flags synchronization until after removalsCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a file in the mailstore is renamed, this appears to "notmuch new" as both an added file and a removed file (for the same message). We want the synchronization of the maildir_flags to reflect the final state, (after the rename is complete). Therefore, it's incorrect to perform the synchronization immediately after adding a new file. Instead we queue up these synchronizations (by message ID[*]) and perform them after the removals are complete. With this change, the "dump/restore" case of the maildir-sync tests, as well as the recent "remove 'S'" case both now pass where they were failing before. Interestingly, the "remove info" test was passing before, but now fails. This is actually due to a separate bug, (and the bug just fixed was masking it, by preventing the test from performing as desired). [*] It's important to queue by message ID---queueing actual message objects does not work since the message objects will retain stale data such as the old filenames.
* lib: Document that absence of maildir flags can also remove/add tagsCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously the documentation of notmuch_message_maildir_flags_to_tags suggested that the presence of a flag would cause tags to be added, (or in the case of "unread", removed). But the case of absent maildir flags was not explicitly described. What we actually want, is that for supported flags, the absence of the flag in all messages causes the corresponding tag to be removed, (or in the case of "unread", added). So document that explicitly. This is the case recently added to the test suite as a failing test, (so we'll need to do bug fixing before the documentation is honest here).
* test: Add a new test that removal of a maildir flag also changes tagsCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | This test exposes an existing bug, so is currently failing.
* Fix notmuch_message_tags_to_maildir_flags to effect rename immediatelyCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have tests to ensure that when the notmuch library renames a file that that rename takes place immediately in the database, (without requiring something like "notmuch new" to notice the change). This was working when the code was first added, but recently broke in the reworking of the maildir-synchronization interface since the tags_to_maildir_flags function can no longer assume that it is being called as part of _notmuch_message_sync. Fortunately, the fix is as simple as adding an explicit call to _notmuch_message_sync.
* Fix notmuch_message_maildir_flags_to_tags to iterate over filenamesCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | As documented, this function now iterates over all filenames for the message, computing a logical OR of the flags set on the filenames, then uses the final result to set tags on the message. This change fixes 3 of the 10 maildir-sync tests that have been failing since being added.
* lib: Add new, public notmuch_message_get_filenamesCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This augments the existing notmuch_message_get_filename by allowing the caller access to all filenames in the case of multiple files for a single message. To support this, we split the iterator (notmuch_filenames_t) away from the list storage (notmuch_filename_list_t) where previously these were a single object (notmuch_filenames_t). Then, whenever the user asks for a file or filename, the message object lazily creates a complete notmuch_filename_list_t and then: For notmuch_message_get_filename, returns the first filename in the list. For notmuch_message_get_filenames, creates and returns a new iterator for the filename list.
* lib: Add new implementation of notmuch_filenames_tCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | The new implementation is simply a talloc-based list of strings. The former support (a list of database terms with a common prefix) is implemented by simply pre-iterating over the terms and populating the list. This should provide no performance disadvantage as callers of thigns like notmuch_directory_get_child_files are very likely to always iterate over all filenames anyway. This new implementation of notmuch_filenames_t is in preparation for adding API to query all of the filenames for a single message.
* lib: Remove the notion of TAGS_INVALIDCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | This rather ugly hack was recently obviated by the removal of the notmuch_database_set_maildir_sync function. Now, clients must make explicit calls to do any syncrhonization between maildir flags and tags. So the library no longer needs to worry about doing inconsistent synchronization while a message is only partially added.
* lib: Rework interface for maildir_flags synchronizationCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of having an API for setting a library-wide flag for synchronization (notmuch_database_set_maildir_sync) we instead implement maildir synchronization with two new library functions: notmuch_message_maildir_flags_to_tags and notmuch_message_tags_to_maildir_flags These functions are nicely documented here, (though the implementation does not quite match the documentation yet---as plainly evidenced by the current results of the test suite).
* Avoid abbreviation, preferring notmuch_config_get_maildir_synchronize_flagsCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Since the name of the configuration parameter here is: maildir.synchronize_flags the convention is that the functions to get and set this parameter should match it in name. Hence: notmuch_config_get_maildir_synchronize_flags etc. (as opposed to notmuch_config_get_maildir_sync).
* test: Rework recently-added additional maildir-sync testsCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These needed to be changed to be brought up to the current state of the maildir-sync tests. This includes style changes, but also the elimination of any assumption about pre-existing message filenames, (such as msg-003) which actually don't exist anymore. Also, the known broken tests are changed to emit FAIL rather than BROKEN simply to make them easier to fix, (so that they print the current problems rather than hiding them). Finally, an additional test is added to ensure that when a duplicate file is added without flags, it doesn't invalidate flags from other duplicates, (instead the flags are effectively merged).
* test: More maildir synchronization testsMichal Sojka2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | Add maildir synchronization tests for multiple messages with the same message-id. As this is not yet implemented in notmuch, some of these teste are marked as BROKEN. I use $(< ) operator to avoid fiddling with stripped trailing newlines from test results which happens when output+=$(command) is used.
* lib: Remove the synchronization of 'T' flag with "deleted" tag.Carl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tags in a notmuch database affect all messages with the identical message-ID. But maildir tags affect individual files. And since multiple files can contain the identical message-ID, there is not a one-to-one correspondence between messages affected by tags and flags. This is particularly dangerous with the 'T' (== "trashed") maildir flag and the corresponding "deleted" tag in the notmuch database. Since these flags/tags are often used to trigger irreversible deletion operations, the lack of one-to-one correspondence can be potentially dangerous. For example, consider the following sequence: 1. A third-party application is used to identify duplicate messages in the mail store, and mark all-but-one of each duplicate with the 'T' flag for subsequent deletion. 2. A "notmuch new" operation reads that 'T' flag, adding the "deleted" flag to the corresponding messages within the notmuch database. 3. A subsequent notmuch operation, (such as a "notmuch dump; notmuch restore" cycle) synchronized the "deleted" tag back to the mail store, applying the 'T' flag to all(!) filenames with duplicate message IDs. 4. A third-party application reads the 'T' flags and irreversibly deletes all mail messages which had any duplicates(!). In order to avoid this scenario, we simply refuse to synchronize the 'T' flag with the "deleted" tag. Instead, applications can set 'T' and act on it to delete files, or can set "deleted" and act on it to delete files. But in either case the semantics are clear and there is never dangerous propagation through the one-to-many mapping of notmuch message objects to files.
* test: Rework testing of maildir-synchronization feature.Carl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change reworks these tests in several ways: 1. Bring tests into "new" test style preferring test_expect_equal over test_expect_success in almost all cases. 2. Don't emit test results for intermediate items not actually being tested, (things like "no new messages", "search for message", etc.). Those things are already covered by existing tests such as "basic" or "search" and only serve to obscure what's actually being tested. 3. Change sense of the test showing failure to rename a file from "new" to "cur" when "cur" doesn't exist. In this case, notmuch should detect that this is not a maildir and should not attempt to do any renaming of the file. 4. Extend dump/restore test to also exercise addition of tag, not just removal. Both items #3 and #4 above show shortcomings in the current implementation. These are currently resulting in test results of FAIL and indicate bugs that need to be fixed.

* Make maildir synchronization configurableMichal Sojka2010-11-10
| | | | | | | This adds group [maildir] and key 'synchronize_flags' to the configuration file. Its value enables (true) or diables (false) the synchronization between notmuch tags and maildir flags. By default, the synchronization is disabled.
* Maildir synchronizationMichal Sojka2010-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows bi-directional synchronization between maildir flags and certain tags. The flag-to-tag mapping is defined by flag2tag array. The synchronization works this way: 1) Whenever notmuch new is executed, the following happens: o New messages are tagged with configured new_tags. o For new or renamed messages with maildir info present in the file name, the tags defined in flag2tag are either added or removed depending on the flags from the file name. 2) Whenever notmuch tag (or notmuch restore) is executed, a new set of flags based on the tags is constructed for every message and a new file name is prepared based on the old file name but with the new flags. If the flags differs and the old message was in 'new' directory then this is replaced with 'cur' in the new file name. If the new and old file names differ, the file is renamed and notmuch database is updated accordingly. The rename happens before the database is updated. In case of crash between rename and database update, the next run of notmuch new brings the database in sync with the mail store again.

* test: Don't strip portions of test name after '-' for temporary files.Carl Worth2010-11-10
| | | | | | | We have test names like maildir-sync now, so it's cleaner if the temporary files created are named things like maildir-sync-10.out rather than maildir-10.out. Presumably the extra stripping here came from naming conventions in git's test suite.

* | Don't use kill-this-buffer to kill notmuch emacs buffersJameson Rollins2010-11-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kill-this-buffer appears to be a function intended specifically for use in the menu bar, and causes problem killing notmuch buffers when multiple frames have been used. This patch replaces kill-this-buffer with notmuch-kill-this-buffer, which in turn just simply calls (kill-buffer (current-buffer)).

* | Rename "notmuch cat" to "notmuch show --format=raw"Carl Worth2010-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is part of an effort to avoid proliferation of excessive top-level notmuch commands. Also, "raw" better captures the functionality here, (as opposed to "cat" which is a fairly oblique reference to a bad Unix abbreviation whose metaphor doesn't work here since "notmuch cat" operates only on a single message and hence cannot "con'cat'enate" anything).

* | emacs: Access raw messages via cat subcommandMichal Sojka2010-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies the following commands to access the messages via cat subcommand: - view/save attachments ('v', 'w'), - view a raw message ('V') and - pipe a message to a command ('|'). With this patch, it is straightforward to use notmuch emacs interface with a remote database accessed over SSH. To do this, it is sufficient to redefine notmuch-command variable to contain the name of a script containing: ssh user@host notmuch "$@" If the ssh client has enabled connection sharing (ControlMaster option in OpenSSH), the emacs interface is almost as responsive as when notmuch is invoked locally.
* | Add 'cat' subcommandMichal Sojka2010-11-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This command outputs a raw message matched by search term to the standard output. It allows MUAs to access the messages for piping, attachment manipulation, etc. by running notmuch cat rather then directly access the file. This will simplify the MUAs when they need to operate on a remote database. Edited-by: Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org>: Remove trailing whitespace, add missing "test_done" to new test script to avoid "Unexpected exit" error.
