Vim plugins

[Sepp Tannhuber]

Dear all,

I would like to check the available vim plugins. At least I found three:
- the original one
- Felipe's ruby plugin
- Anton's python plugin

First of all can you tell me where I find the files of the python plugin?
I tried
  $ git clone git://git.khirnov.net/git/notmuch
But I cannot find the python files in the vim directory. What am I doing wrong?

Then I found some information that the ruby plugin should be able to deal with
attachments. I could not find a way to attach files. Is there any additional
information how these scripts can be used? The screencast which was mentioned
in this mailing list is interesting. But it does not show how these actions can be
done.

I am not very familiar with coding. So any further information would be helpful.

Thanks in advance

you have to checkout the vim branch, then the files are in vim/plugin

I deleted all other branches from my repo now so nobody else gets
confused like this.

Hi Anton,

thanks for answering. Finally I found it. My next problem is that I have absolutely no idea how to use it.
I followed the instructions I have found in this mailing list and copied the syntax files into my ~/.vim/syntax
and the two plugin files into my ~/.vim/plugin folders.

Then I called
    vi -c 'NMVimpy()'
The result is
    E492: Not an editor command: NMVimpy()

I tried
    vi -c ':nm_vimpy()'
as well. And vi answers
    No mapping found

Is there a README file or any other kind of documentation for your script?

Best regards
Joseph

I invoke it as vim -c :NMVimpy

I wish. Patches welcome ;)

That's strange. I suppose there must be a function called
  NMVimpy
in one of your scripts. But
  grep -R NMVimpy *
in your notmuch directory does not find anything. I am completely at a loss.

Dear Anton,

for some reason the file did not exist here. Perhaps I deleted it accidentally. So I cloned the
repository again. And there it is.
Now I'm trying if it is useful for me. I changed some code that I can use python-ranger to
attach files:
##########
function! s:NM_compose_attach()

if filereadable('/tmp/chosendir')
silent !ranger --choosefiles=/tmp/chosenfiles --choosedir=/tmp/chosendir "$(cat /tmp/chosendir)"
else
silent !ranger --choosefiles=/tmp/chosenfiles --choosedir=/tmp/chosendir
endif
if filereadable('/tmp/chosenfiles')
let attachments = readfile('/tmp/chosenfiles')
call system('rm /tmp/chosenfiles')
for attach in attachments
python nm_vim.get_current_buffer().attach(vim.eval('attach'))
endfor
call append(10, map(attachments, '"Attach: ".escape(v:val," \t\\")'))
redraw!
endif
endfunction
##########
It's even possible to mark and attach multiple files at once.

Is it possible suppress the message returned by
    python nm_vim.get_current_buffer()?
 
And do you have an idea what's the reason for the following message?

##########
:call <SNR>33_NM_folders_show_search('')       Exception in thread Thread-1:                                
Traceback (most recent call last):

    self.run()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 504, in run
    self.__target(*self.__args, **self.__kwargs)
  File "/home/sepp/.vim/plugin/nm_vim.py", line 195, in _refresh_thread
    authors, subj, tags)).encode('utf-8')
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 1: ordinal not in range(128)

Thanks for your great work and support

Looks useful, but needs more work I think.
First, I think it should be a new function, so there are separate
'attach one file'/'attach multiple files' commands.
Second, using hardcoded filenames would break horribly with multiple
instances of the client running.

What message?

Should be fixed now.

Something like this:
  Notmuch-Attachment: filename.pdf:application/pdf

Thanks a lot! I am back from holidays right now and will test
it during the next weeks.
