python: add bindings to access config

2017-12-19T10:36:30Z

The C functions notmuch_database_get_config, notmuch_database_get_config_list and notmuch_database_set_config are part of the official C bindings. So there should also be some python bindings for them. Also they are the only way to access the named queries introduced in b9bf3f44. The interface of the python functions is designed to be close to the C functions.

database: add n_d_index_file (deprecates n_d_add_message)

2017-08-23T10:38:37Z

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.

Fix orthography

Use https instead of http where possible

2016-06-05T11:32:17Z

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.

Unset html_static_path in Python bindings docs
