2012-05-05lib/cli: Make notmuch_database_open return a status codeAustin Clements
It has been a long-standing issue that notmuch_database_open doesn't return any indication of why it failed. This patch changes its prototype to return a notmuch_status_t and set an out-argument to the database itself, like other functions that return both a status and an object. In the interest of atomicity, this also updates every use in the CLI so that notmuch still compiles. Since this patch does not update the bindings, the Python bindings test fails.

Adapt the notmuch binaries source to the notmuch_database_close split. Signed-off-by: Justus Winter <4winter@informatik.uni-hamburg.de>
2011-12-08notmuch-dump: convert to command-line-argumentsDavid Bremner
The output file is handled via positional arguments. There are currently no "normal" options.

2011-11-28dump: Don't sort the output by message id.Thomas Schwinge
Asking xapian to sort the messages for us causes suboptimal IO patterns. This would be useful, if we only wanted the first few results, but since we want everything anyway, this is pessimization. On 2011-10-29, a measurement on a 372981 messages instance showed that wall time can be reduced from 28 minutes (sorted by Message-ID) to 15 minutes (unsorted).

2011-10-22cli: change argument parsing convention for subcommandsDavid Bremner
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].
2011-10-16notmuch-dump: deprecate use of output file argument.David Bremner
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.
2011-10-16notmuch-dump: treat any remaining arguments after the filename as search termsDavid Bremner
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
2011-10-16notmuch-dump: update handling of file name argumentDavid Bremner
We permit -- as an "option processing terminator". Currently this does not do anything useful, but we plan to add search terms after the --.
2010-03-09lib: Rename iterator functions to prepare for reverse iteration.Carl Worth
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'.
2009-11-23lib/query: Drop the first and max_messages arguments from search_messages.Carl Worth
These only existed to support the chunky-searching hack, but that was recently dropped anyway.
2009-11-21Rename NOTMUCH_DATABASE_MODE_WRITABLE to NOTMUCH_DATABASE_MODE_READ_WRITECarl Worth
And correspondingly, READONLY to READ_ONLY.
2009-11-21Permit opening the notmuch database in read-only mode.Chris Wilson
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 <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Acked-by: Carl Worth <cworth@cworth.org>
2009-11-12libnotmuch: Underlying support for doing partial-results searches.Carl Worth
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.
2009-11-11Unbreak several notmuch commands after the addition of configuration.Carl Worth
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).
2009-11-10notmuch: Break notmuch.c up into several smaller files.Carl Worth
Now that the client sources are alone here in their own directory, (with all the library sources down inside the lib directory), we can break the client up into multiple files without mixing the files up. The hope is that these smaller files will be easier to manage and maintain.
