NOTMUCH-HOOKS(5)
NAME
notmuch-hooks - hooks for notmuch
SYNOPSIS
$DATABASEDIR/.notmuch/hooks/*
DESCRIPTION
Hooks are scripts (or arbitrary executables or symlinks to such) that
notmuch invokes before and after certain actions. These scripts reside
in the .notmuch/hooks directory within the database directory and must
have executable permissions.
The currently available hooks are described below.
pre-new
This hook is invoked by the new command before scanning or
importing new messages into the database. If this hook exits
with a non-zero status, notmuch will abort further processing
of the new command.
Typically this hook is used for fetching or delivering new mail
to be imported into the database.
post-new
This hook is invoked by the new command after new messages have
been imported into the database and initial tags have been
applied. The hook will not be run if there have been any errors
during the scan or import.
Typically this hook is used to perform additional query-based
tagging on the imported messages.
