From a UI perspective this looks similar to what was already provided
for from, subject, and mid, but the implementation is quite
different. It uses the database's list of terms to construct a term
based query equivalent to the passed regular expression.
|
|
The bulk of the change is passing in the field options to the regexp
field processor, so that we can properly handle the
fallback (non-regexp case).
|
|
This function was deprecated in notmuch 0.21. We re-use the name for
a status returning version, and deprecate the _st name. One or two
remaining uses of the (removed) non-status returning version fixed at
the same time

No need to maintain the pure C stuff within a try block, it's arguably
confusing. This also reduces indent for a bunch of code. No functional
changes.

mid: is the url scheme suggested by URL 2392. We also plan to
introduce more flexible searches for mid: than are possible with
id: (in order not to break assumptions about the special behaviour of
id:, e.g. identifying at most one message).
|
|
the idea is that you can run
% notmuch search subject:/<your-favourite-regexp>/
% notmuch search from:/<your-favourite-regexp>/
or
% notmuch search subject:"your usual phrase search"
% notmuch search from:"usual phrase search"
This feature is only available with recent Xapian, specifically
support for field processors is needed.
It should work with bindings, since it extends the query parser.
This is easy to extend for other value slots, but currently the only
value slots are date, message_id, from, subject, and last_mod. Date is
already searchable; message_id is left for a followup commit.
This was originally written by Austin Clements, and ported to Xapian
field processors (from Austin's custom query parser) by yours truly.
|
|
This is a bit more code than hardcoding the two existing field
processors, but it should make it easy to add more.
|
|
The main expected use is to recover from a Xapian::DatabaseChanged
exception.

Merge in g_hash_table read-after-free fix
|
|
The two g_hash_table functions (insert, add) have different behaviour
with respect to existing keys. g_hash_table_insert frees the new key,
while g_hash_table_add (which is really g_hash_table_replace in
disguise) frees the existing key. With this change 'ref' is live until
the end of the function (assuming single-threaded access to
'hash'). We can't guarantee it will continue to be live in the
future (i.e. there may be a future key duplication) so we copy it with
the allocation context passed to parse_references (in practice this is
the notmuch_message_t object whose parents we are finding).
Thanks to Tomi for the simpler approach to the problem based on
reading the fine glib manual.
|
|
It turns out this is exactly what release() is for; Xapian will
deallocate the objects when it's done with them.
|
|
Replace multiple tables with some flags in a single table. This makes
the code in notmuch_database_open_verbose a bit shorter, and it should
also make it easier to add other options to fields, e.g. regexp
searching.
|
|
This will make notmuch incompatible with Xapian before 1.1.0, which is
more than 6 years old this point.
|
|
It seems that no-one tried to compile without Xapian compact support
since March of 2015, since that's when I introduced a syntax error in
that branch of the ifdef.
Given the choice of maintaining this underused branch of code, or
bumping the Xapian dependency to a version from 2011, it seems
reasonable to do the latter.
|
|
Found by gcc 6.1.1 -Wmisleading-indentation option (set by -Wall).
|
|
We want to be able to query the properties directly, like:
notmuch count property:foo=bar
which should return a count of messages where the property with key
"foo" has value equal to "bar".
|
|
This is a first step towards providing an API to attach
arbitrary (key,value) pairs to messages and retrieve all of the values
for a given key.
|
|
I believe the current one is misleading, because in my experiments
Xapian did not add : when prefix and term were both upper case. Indeed,
it's hard to see how it could, because prefixes are added at a layer
above Xapian in our code. See _notmuch_message_add_term for an example.
Also try to explain why this is a good idea. As far as I can ascertain,
this is more of an issue for a system trying to work with an unknown set
of prefixes. Since notmuch has a fixed set of prefixes, and we can
hopefully be trusted not to add XGOLD and XGOLDEN as prefixes, it is
harder for problems to arise.

_notmuch_database_log clears the log buffer each time. Rather than
introducing more complicated semantics about for this function, provide
a second function that does not clear the buffer. This is mainly a
convenience function for callers constructing complex or multi-line log
messages.
The changes to query.cc are to make sure that the common code path of
the new function is tested.

Xapian 1.3 has introduced the DB_RETRY_LOCK flag (Xapian bug
275). Detect it in configure and optionally use it. With this flag
commands that need the write lock will wait for their turn instead of
aborting when it's not immediately available.
Amended by db: allow disabling in configure
|
|
The field processor objects need to be deallocated explicitly just like
the range processors (or a talloc destructor defined).
|
|
This probably should have been part of 3458e3c89c, but I missed it.
|
|
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.

This relies on the optional presense of xapian field processors, and the
library config API.
|
|
This relies on the FieldProcessor API, which is only present in xapian
>= 1.3.
|
|
Make the logic it a bit easier to read. No functional changes.

The code to skip multiple slashes in _notmuch_database_split_path()
skips back one character too much. This is compensated by a +1 in the
length parameter to the strndup() call. Mostly this works fine, but if
the path is to a file under a top level directory with one character
long name, the directory part is mistaken to be part of the file name
(slash == path in code). The returned directory name will be the empty
string and the basename will be the full path, breaking the indexing
logic in notmuch new.
Fix the multiple slash skipping to keep the slash variable pointing at
the last slash, and adjust strndup() accordingly.

database: Store the parent ID for each directory document.
just a little over two months after the initial commit in the Notmuch
code history, making this the longest living bug in Notmuch to date.

We can't (but currently do) allow upgrades within transactions because
upgrades need their own transactions. We don't want to re-use the
current transaction because bailing out of an upgrade would mean loosing
all previous changes (because our "atomic" transactions don't commit
before hand). This gives us two options:
1. Fail at the beginning of upgrade (tell the user to end the
transaction, upgrade, and start over).
2. Don't allow the user to start the transaction.
I went with the latter because:
1. There is no reason to call `begin_atomic` unless you intend to to
write to the database and anyone intending to write to the database
should upgrade it first.
2. This means that nothing inside an atomic transaction can ever fail
with NOTMUCH_STATUS_UPGRADE_REQUIRED.
|
|
Here we depend on the error path cleaning up query
|
|
Although I think it's a pretty bad idea to continue using the old API,
this allows both a more gentle transition for clients of the library,
and allows us to break one monolithic change into a series
|
|
This is a prelude to deallocating it (if necessary) on the error path.
|
|
We don't modify the database struct, so no harm in committing to that.
|
|
The two remaining cases in the lib seem to require more than a simple
replacement of the old call, with the new call plus a check of the
return value.
|
|
The implementation is essentially the same as the date range search
prior to Jani's fancy date parser.
|
|
This exposes the committed database revision to library users along
with a UUID that can be used to detect when revision numbers are no
longer comparable (e.g., because the database has been replaced).
|
|
This adds a new document value that stores the revision of the last
modification to message metadata, where the revision number increases
monotonically with each database commit.
An alternative would be to store the wall-clock time of the last
modification of each message. In principle this is simpler and has
the advantage that any process can determine the current timestamp
without support from libnotmuch. However, even assuming a computer's
clock never goes backward and ignoring clock skew in networked
environments, this has a fatal flaw. Xapian uses (optimistic)
snapshot isolation, which means reads can be concurrent with writes.
Given this, consider the following time line with a write and two read
transactions:
write |-X-A--------------|
read 1 |---B---|
read 2 |---|
The write transaction modifies message X and records the wall-clock
time of the modification at A. The writer hangs around for a while
and later commits its change. Read 1 is concurrent with the write, so
it doesn't see the change to X. It does some query and records the
wall-clock time of its results at B. Transaction read 2 later starts
after the write commits and queries for changes since wall-clock time
B (say the reads are performing an incremental backup). Even though
read 1 could not see the change to X, read 2 is told (correctly) that
X has not changed since B, the time of the last read. In fact, X
changed before wall-clock time A, but the change was not visible until
*after* wall-clock time B, so read 2 misses the change to X.
This is tricky to solve in full-blown snapshot isolation, but because
Xapian serializes writes, we can use a simple, monotonically
increasing database revision number. Furthermore, maintaining this
revision number requires no more IO than a wall-clock time solution
because Xapian already maintains statistics on the upper (and lower)
bound of each value stream.

There are many places in the notmuch code where the path is assumed to be absolute. If someone (TM) wants a project, one could remove these assumptions. In the mean time, prevent users from shooting themselves in the foot.
Update test suite mark tests for this error as no longer broken, and
also convert some tests that used relative paths for nonexistent
directories.
|
|
The difference with FILE_ERROR is that this is for things that are
wrong with the path before looking at the disk.
Add some 3 tests; two broken as a reminder to actually use this new
code.
|
|
The word "setup" is a noun, not a verb. Change occurrences of "setup"
where used as a verb to "set up".
|
|
You may wonder why _notmuch_message_file_open_ctx has two parameters.
This is because we need sometime to use a ctx which is a
notmuch_message_t. While we could get the database from this, there is
no easy way in C to tell type we are getting.
|
|
This is not supposed to change any functionality from an end user
point of view. Note that it will eliminate some output to stderr. The
query debugging output is left as is; it doesn't really fit with the
current primitive logging model. The remaining "bad" fprintf will need
an internal API change.
|
|
In principle in the future this could do something fancier than
asprintf.
|
|
The compatibility wrapper ensures that clients calling
notmuch_database_open will receive consistent output for now.
The changes to notmuch-{new,search} and test/symbol-test are just to
make the test suite pass.
The use of IGNORE_RESULT is justified by two things. 1) I don't know
what else to do. 2) asprintf guarantees the output string is NULL if
an error occurs, so at least we are not passing garbage back.
|
|
This adds the indexing support for the "mimetype:" term and removes
the broken test flag. The indexing is probablistic in Xapian terms,
which gives a better experience to end users. Standard content-types
of the form "foo/bar" are automatically interpreted as phrases in
Xapian due to the embedded slash.
Assume, separate messages with application/pdf and application/x-pdf
are indexed, then:
- mimetype:application/x-pdf will find only the application/x-pdf
- mimetype:application/pdf will find only the application/pdf
- mimetype:pdf will find both of the messages
|
|
This feature will exist in all newly created databases, but there is
no upgrade provided for it. If this flag exists, it indicates that
the database was created after the indexed MIME-types feature was
added.
|
|
Previously, it was necessary to link new messages to children to work
around some (though not all) problems with the old metadata-based
approach to stored thread IDs. With ghost messages, this is no longer
necessary, so don't bother with child linking when ghost messages are
in use.
|
|
Somehow this is the first upgrade pass that actually does *any* error
checking, so this also adds the bit of necessary infrastructure to
handle that.
|
|
This updates the thread linking code to use ghost messages instead of
user metadata to link messages into threads.
In contrast with the old approach, this is actually correct.
Previously, thread merging updated only the thread IDs of message
documents, not thread IDs stored in user metadata. As originally
diagnosed by Mark Walters [1] and as demonstrated by the broken
T260-thread-order test, this can cause notmuch to fail to link
messages even though they're in the same thread. In principle the old
approach could have been fixed by updating the user metadata thread
IDs as well, but these are not indexed and hence this would have
required a full scan of all stored thread IDs. Ghost messages solve
this problem naturally by reusing the exact same thread ID and message
ID representation and indexing as regular messages.
Furthermore, thanks to this greater symmetry, ghost messages are also
algorithmically simpler. We continue to support the old user metadata
format, so this patch can't delete any code, but when we do remove
support for the old format, several functions can simply be deleted.
