Subject: Using notmuch from Ruby, Python, et al.
Date: Wed, 25 Nov 2009 08:16:54 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1259164514-sup-196@lisa> (raw)

I'm hoping this thread will provide a guide for my efforts.

I'm writing a web frontend for notmuch in Ruby. But, the output from the
notmuch command-line is ambiguous. Therefore, I've started two branches
experimenting with different ways of providing hooks.

Which of these approaches are likely to be pulled upstream?

== Shared Library

I have modified the build to output a shared library. It's a small change
relying on libtool.

However, the archives indicate Carl dislikes libtool?

== JSON output

I added a --output=(text|json) option to "search" and "show." Then, emit json
results appropriately.

To accomplish this, I used the cJSON library sans parsing logic.

However, I saw discussion about providing a --format option?
