notmuch/command-line-arguments.c, branch 0.23.4 thread-based email index, search, and tagging https://git.notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch/atom?h=0.23.4 2014-11-05T22:17:00Z cli: add support for hierarchical command line option arrays 2014-11-05T22:17:00Z Jani Nikula jani@nikula.org 2014-11-05T00:25:54Z urn:sha1:4387112de00d27e6957ca2b6a268242f0bb5c756 NOTMUCH_OPT_INHERIT expects a notmuch_opt_desc_t * pointer in output_var. The "Unrecognized option" message was moved out of parse_option() to not be emitted twice or when parsing a non-inherited option. cli: Add support for parsing keyword-flag arguments 2014-11-01T07:02:21Z Jani Nikula jani@nikula.org 2014-10-31T21:53:56Z urn:sha1:ecc4a9a6441a3b7011d9afb2ca67e9d4ea1fca48 This allows having multiple --foo=bar --foo=baz options on the command line, with the corresponding values OR'd together. [Test added by Michal Sojka] cli: command line option parser cleanup 2014-02-26T00:53:41Z Jani Nikula jani@nikula.org 2014-02-24T21:36:58Z urn:sha1:6960b92bb6ccbacd9904e2d12775a7c68b2d8801 Reduce the indentation for clarity. No functional changes. cli: make the command line parser's errors more informative. 2012-09-02T02:03:36Z Mark Walters markwalters1009@gmail.com 2012-06-05T14:36:36Z urn:sha1:ab1487363edec7e0d89157b69634703beab622dc Previously, the cli parser was a little erratic in what errors it reported and would fail silently in many cases (for example, when no argument was passed to an integer option). This was particularly annoying as the user could not (easily) tell whether the command failed or just there were no search results. This patch tries to make the handling consistent and return a helpful error message in all cases. cli: command line parsing: allow default for keyword options 2012-06-30T01:31:40Z Mark Walters markwalters1009@gmail.com 2012-06-16T10:21:42Z urn:sha1:779ce3e9300c8f656e798ee77459b4425dbf35a6 This changes the parsing for "keyword" options so that if the option is specified with no argument the argument is parsed as if it were passed an empty string. This make it easier to add options to existing boolean arguments (the existing --option can default to TRUE). cli: Parsing. Allow true/false parameter for boolean options. 2012-03-18T12:14:22Z Mark Walters markwalters1009@gmail.com 2012-03-10T11:05:32Z urn:sha1:b3e4417897f5b27883513c4714f7e84e377b5f5b Allow NOTMUCH_OPT_BOOLEAN to take a true or false parameter. In particular it allows the user to turn off a boolean option with --option=false. command-line-arguments.[ch]: make arrays of keyword descriptors const 2011-12-13T04:00:44Z David Bremner bremner@debian.org 2011-12-13T03:54:24Z urn:sha1:f717d2ece1836c863f9cc02abd1ff2539307cd1d It seems like it should never be necessary to modify these arrays after initialization. command-line-arguments.[ch]: new argument parsing framework for notmuch. 2011-12-09T00:24:24Z David Bremner bremner@debian.org 2011-12-01T00:27:26Z urn:sha1:2cf7b27a0c4b4e746e2e40752c55ddb4d54798b2 As we noticed when Jani kindly converted things to getopt_long, much of the work in argument parsing in notmuch is due to the the key-value style arguments like --format=(raw|json|text). The framework here provides positional arguments, simple switches, and --key=value style arguments that can take a value being an integer, a string, or one of a set of keywords.
