emacs: Use the minibuffer for CLI error reporting

2013-01-07T02:47:35Z

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).

emacs: Special handling for version mismatch errors

2012-12-16T21:22:14Z

Since Emacs has more semantic information, we suppress the generic format version error from the CLI and give a more informative error.

emacs: Use unified error handling in search

2012-12-16T21:17:41Z

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.

emacs: Improve error handling for notmuch-call-notmuch-json

2012-12-16T21:04:08Z

This checks for non-zero exit status from JSON CLI calls and pops up an error buffer with stderr and stdout. A consequence of this is that show and reply now handle errors, rather than ignoring them.

emacs: Factor out synchronous notmuch JSON invocations

2012-12-16T21:00:22Z

Previously this code was duplicated between show and reply. This factors out synchronously invoking notmuch and parsing the output as JSON.

emacs: Centralize notmuch command error handling

2012-12-16T20:58:14Z

This provides library functions for unified handling of errors from the notmuch CLI. Follow-up patches will convert some scattered error handling to use this and add error handling where we currently ignore errors.

emacs: Fix bug in resynchronizing after a JSON parse error

2012-12-15T17:47:49Z

Previously, if the input stream consisted only of an error message, notmuch-json-begin-compound would signal a (wrong-type-argument number-or-marker-p nil) error when reaching the end of the error message. This happened because notmuch-json-scan-to-value would think that it reached a value and put the parser into the 'value state. Even after notmuch-json-begin-compound signaled the syntax error, the parser would remain in this state and when the resynchronization logic reached the end of the buffer, the parser would fail because the 'value state indicates that characters are available. This fixes this problem by restoring the parser's previous state if it encounters a syntax error.

emacs: stash bugfix

2012-12-06T21:12:47Z

Currently an attempt to stash a non-existent field (eg cc when not present) throws an error. Catch this case and give the user a warning message.

emacs: drop support for deprecated notmuch-folders

2012-12-04T13:08:02Z

Remove notmuch-folders which has been deprecated since commit a4669217600e4536dc0c49f0255af5e2d9bc183f Author: Carl Worth Date: Mon Apr 26 22:42:07 2010 -0700 emacs: Rip out all of the notmuch-folder code. This lets us simplify the notmuch-saved-searches code slightly.

emacs: Move the incremental JSON parser to notmuch-lib.el

2012-10-28T12:42:18Z

This just moves the newly split out incremental json parser (together with its state variables) to lib. There should be no functional change.
