* config: Add 'config list' commandPeter Wang2012-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | Add a command to list all configuration items with their associated values. One use is as follows: a MUA may prefer to store data in a central notmuch configuration file so that the data is accessible across different machines, e.g. an addressbook. The list command helps to implement features such as tab completion on the keys.
* config: Check 'config get' arity exactlyPeter Wang2012-04-28
| | | | | | Require that 'config get' is passed exactly one additional argument, instead of silently ignoring extra arguments. As a side-effect, produce more specific error messages for the 'config' command as a whole.
* config: Fix free in 'config get' implementation.Peter Wang2012-04-24
| | | | | The array returned by g_key_file_get_string_list() should be freed with g_strfreev(), not free().
* Make exclusion visible againDavid Bremner2012-03-03
| | | | | | | | This reverts dfee0f9 man: remove search.exclude_tags from notmuch-config.1 for 0.12 e83409d NEWS: revert NEWS item for exclude tags for 0.12 e77b031 config: disable addition of exclude tags for 0.12
* config: disable addition of exclude tags for 0.12Mark Walters2012-03-02
| | | | | This disables the addition of search_exclude_tags in notmuch-setup and notmuch-config.
* cli: update 'new.ignore' config file comment wrt file/directory matchingPieter Praet2012-02-27
|
* add support for user-specified files & directories to ignoreTomi Ollila2012-02-17
| | | | | | | | | A new configuration key 'new.ignore' is used to determine which files and directories user wants not to be scanned as new mails. Mark the corresponding test as no longer broken. This work merges my previous attempts and Andreas Amann's work in id:"ylp7hi23mw8.fsf@tyndall.ie"
* moved _config_(get|set)_list () functions earlier in the fileTomi Ollila2012-01-30
| | | | | | Moved static functions _config_get_list () and _config_set_list () closer to the beginning of file so that their definition is known (without adding forward declarations) in upcoming changes.
* config: only exclude messages if 'search.exclude_tags' is explicitly setPieter Praet2012-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the 'search.exclude_tags' option is automatically set to "deleted;spam;" if it's missing from the config file. This violates the Principle of Least Surprise, so *only* set 'search.exclude_tags' to "deleted;spam;" if we didn't find a configuration file at all. This patch is actually Austin Clements' work: id:"20120117203211.GQ16740@mit.edu"
* search: rename auto_exclude_tags to {search, }exclude_tagsPieter Praet2012-01-23
| | | | | | | All other config-related functions and args include the section title in their name, so for the sake of consistency, mirror that. Also, the "auto"matic part is a given, so that was dropped.
* config: Better formatting for search section commentAustin Clements2012-01-20
| | | | | Since "auto_exclude_tags" is long and its description is multi-line, start the description on the next line and indent it consistently.
* search: Support automatic tag exclusionsAustin Clements2012-01-16
| | | | | | This adds a "search" section to the config file and an "auto_tag_exclusions" setting in that section. The search and count commands pass tag tags from the configuration to the library.
* cli: factor out config handling code to get/set lists.David Bremner2011-12-12
| | | | | | Two new internal routines are created _config_get_list and _config_set_list; the notmuch_config_get_* functions that deal with lists are simply wrappers for these functions.
* cli: change argument parsing convention for subcommandsDavid Bremner2011-10-22
| | | | | | | | | previously we deleted the subcommand name from argv before passing to the subcommand. In this version, the deletion is done in the actual subcommands. Although this causes some duplication of code, it allows us to be more flexible about how we parse command line arguments in the subcommand, including possibly using off-the-shelf routines like getopt_long that expect the name of the command in argv[0].
* fix sum moar typos [user-visible documentation in code]Pieter Praet2011-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | Various typo fixes in documentation within the code that can be made available to the user, (emacs function help strings, "notmuch help" output, notmuch man page, etc.). Signed-off-by: Pieter Praet <pieter@praet.org> Edited-by: Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org> Restricted to just documentation and fixed fix of "comman" to "common" rather than "command".
* Fix check of sysconf return in get_name/username_from_passwd_fileMatthias Guedemann2011-05-26
| | | | | | | Fix to check the value returned by sysconf(_SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX) before using the value. This fixes a core dump on DragonFlyBSD where this function returns -1.
* config: Fix confusing of "tag" and "flag" oin documentation.Carl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | It has been very difficult to get all of these right. I would not be surprised if I've still missed some.
* notmuch setup: Fix to add maildir group (with comment) to existing fileCarl Worth2010-11-11
| | | | | | | The intent of "notmuch setup" is that it adds new, documented sections to configuration files that were created before such sections were defined. But to make this work, we have to explicitly set an option in the maildir group if it didn't exist previously.
* 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.
* 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).
* 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.
* notmuch config: Allow for new "notmuch config set" in addition to getCarl Worth2010-10-27
| | | | | | It is now possible to set configuration items from the command-line in a manner quite similar to the support for querying configuration items.
* notmuch config: Provide support for querying non-standard configuration values.Carl Worth2010-10-27
| | | | | | We might as well be general here, and allow the "notmuch config" command to query any stored value from the configuration file, (whether or not the rest of the code actually knows anything about that value).
* notmuch: Add a new "notmuch config" command for querying configuration.Carl Worth2010-10-27
| | | | | So far, we implement only "notmuch config get". It won't be too much work from here to also implement "notmuch config set".
* Avoid segmentation fault with NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/new/config/file notmuch setupCarl Worth2010-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit f41a35e2923b0b3ef2f66e91cd30e20b4c1a336a running a command such as: NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/new/config/file notmuch setup would result in a segmentation fault. The purpose of that commit was to ensure that an attempt to manipulate a non-standard database would not inadvertently manipulate the default database only due to a typo in the NOTMUCH_CONFIG environment variable. That is, a command like: NOTMUCH_CONFIG=mistyped-config-filename notmuch tag -new tag:new shouldn't modify the database at ${HOME}/mail, but should instead simply report that the mistype configuration filename does not exist. We fix both cases simultaneously by reporting the error message whenever the function calling notmuch_config_open is not explicitly prepared for a default configuration file.
* config: Rename messages.new_tags to just new.tagsCarl Worth2010-04-23
| | | | | | I think one configuration group for each top-level command makes a lot of sense. And this makes the existing naming of set_new_tags and get_new_tags also very reasonable.
* Clarify the documentation for the new_tags configuration option.Carl Worth2010-04-23
| | | | | Specifically mentioning that it's a list separated by ';' and use "will" instead of "should".
* notmuch setup: Fix new configuration-file groups to get commentsCarl Worth2010-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | Our intent has always been that when new configuration-file settings are created by notmuch, that they get created with comments telling the user how to use them. But this was only working before when the entire configuration file was created. We fix this so that when a new group is added, (such as the recently- added [messages] section) that it gets its documentation.
* Sprinkle some const-correctness around new_tags.Carl Worth2010-04-23
| | | | To eliminate a compiler warning.
* notmuch-config: make new message tags configurableBen Gamari2010-04-23
| | | | | | Add a new_tags option in the [messages] section of the configuration file to allow the user to specify which tags should be added to new messages by notmuch new.
* notmuch: Abort if specified configuration file is not found.Carl Worth2010-04-21
| | | | | | | | When there is no configuration file at all, (and none specified), notmuch works correctly by assuming correct default values. But when the user specifies a configuration file (with the NOTMUCH_CONFIG environment variable) and that file doesn't exist, then notmuch should aboirt and let the user know about the problem.
* * notmuch-config: fix small leak from 'g_key_file_to_data'Dirk-Jan C. Binnema2009-12-04

* Support multiple configuration files via $NOTMUCH_CONFIGAlec Berryman2009-11-23
| | | | | If present, $NOTMUCH_CONFIG will be used as the configuration file location.
* notmuch-config: Fix memleaks.Holger Freyther2009-11-22
| | | | | | | While talloc is great we need to free the g_error by hand. Tested-by: Stefan Schmidt <stefan@datenfreihafen.org> Signed-off-by: Holger Freyther <zecke@selfish.org>
* Deal with situation where sysconf(_SC_GETPW_R_SIZE_MAX) returns -1Alexander Botero-Lowry2009-11-17

* notmuch: Move welcome messages from "notmuch" to "notmuch setup".Carl Worth2009-11-11
| | | | | | It's quite possible for someone to read the documentation and run "notmuch setup" rather than just "notmuch". In that case, we don't want to be any less welcoming.
* notmuch setup: Add some comments when creating a .notmuch-config file.Carl Worth2009-11-11
| | | | | The "notmuch setup" command is nice and all, but we also want to allow users to conveniently edit the configuration file directly.
* notmuch: Add a configuration system.Carl Worth2009-11-11
This will allow for things like the database path to be specified without any cheesy NOTMUCH_BASE environment variable. It also will allow "notmuch reply" to recognize the user's email address when constructing a reply in order to do the right thing, (that is, to use the user's address to which mail was sent as From:, and not to reply to the user's own addresses). With this change, the "notmuch setup" command is now strictly for changing the configuration of notmuch. It no longer creates the database, but instead instructs the user to call "notmuch new" to do that.
