cli: change argument parsing convention for subcommands

2011-10-22T22:42:54Z

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].

notmuch-dump: deprecate use of output file argument.

2011-10-16T22:59:53Z

We print an intentionally non-specific message on stderr, since it isn't clear if there will be some global output file argument to replace. We update the test suite atomically, since it relies on having the same text in two files.

notmuch-dump: treat any remaining arguments after the filename as search terms

2011-10-16T22:59:53Z

The main motivation here is allow the fast dumping of tag data for messages having certain tags. In practice it seems too slow to pipe dump to grep. All dump-restore tests should be working now, so we update test/dump-restore accordingly

notmuch-dump: update handling of file name argument

2011-10-16T22:59:53Z

We permit -- as an "option processing terminator". Currently this does not do anything useful, but we plan to add search terms after the --.

lib: Rename iterator functions to prepare for reverse iteration.

2010-03-09T17:22:29Z

We rename 'has_more' to 'valid' so that it can function whether iterating in a forward or reverse direction. We also rename 'advance' to 'move_to_next' to setup parallel naming with the proposed functions 'move_to_first', 'move_to_last', and 'move_to_previous'.

lib/query: Drop the first and max_messages arguments from search_messages.

2009-11-24T04:25:13Z

These only existed to support the chunky-searching hack, but that was recently dropped anyway.

Rename NOTMUCH_DATABASE_MODE_WRITABLE to NOTMUCH_DATABASE_MODE_READ_WRITE

2009-11-21T21:10:18Z

And correspondingly, READONLY to READ_ONLY.

Permit opening the notmuch database in read-only mode.

2009-11-21T21:04:49Z

We only rarely need to actually open the database for writing, but we always create a Xapian::WritableDatabase. This has the effect of preventing searches and like whilst updating the index. Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson Acked-by: Carl Worth

libnotmuch: Underlying support for doing partial-results searches.

2009-11-13T00:47:27Z

The library interface now allows the caller to do incremental searches, (such as one page of results at a time). Next we'll just need to hook this up to "notmuch search" and the emacs interface.

Unbreak several notmuch commands after the addition of configuration.

2009-11-12T04:29:30Z

All of the following commands: notmuch dump notmuch reply notmuch restore notmuch search notmuch show notmuch tag were calling notmuch_database_open with an argument of NULL. This was a legitimate call until the recent addition of configuration, after which it is expected that all commands will lookup the correct path in the configuration file. So fix all these commands to do that. Also, while touching all of these commands, we fix them to use the talloc context that is passed in rather than creating a local talloc context. We also switch from using goto for return values, to doing direct returns as soon as an error is detected, (which can be leak free thanks to talloc).
