output file argument to notmuch dump.

output file argument to notmuch dump.

[David Bremner]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 948 bytes --]


I'd like to add a search term argument to notmuch dump (see
id:"87wrcijn1w.fsf@zancas.localnet" and followup for context). The
"notmuch" way would be to have

    notmuch dump <search-term>

do the right thing, and that is easy enough _except_ that 

   notmuch dump foo

writes the output to file foo.

I see several options.

1) just delete the output file option from notmuch-dump, and use shell
   redirection. So far I don't see a non-contrived example when writing
   an output file directly is useful, but maybe that is just a failure
   of imagination.

2) delete the output file option and a global "--write" option that 
   calls freopen(... stdout). As a bonus(?) this would work for any 
   notmuch command.

3) leave the output option alone and implement a --query=foo option for 
   notmuch dump. This would be the most backward compatible of course,
   but also confusing for users.

Thoughts?

IMHO 1[+2] is the way.  It breaks the dump command interface, but would
make it consistent with other commands.  Implementing the second option
(for all commands) is nice but independent and optional.  Also, perhaps
--output, --output-file or smth would a better name than --write.

I'm not fussy about the name, except that --output is taken, and I
thought there might be some benefit of making options have unique prefixes.

I strongly support either of these two options (they're basically the
same as far as I'm concerned).  The consistency that this would provide
with rest of the notmuch commands alone kind of makes this a no-brainer
in my opinion.  And I certainly don't see this particular CLI breakage
as an issue either.

jamie.

Is -o/--output taken before the subcommand? i.e.
notmuch -o <dumpfile> dump <query> <terms>
Or would that be to confusing?

(-o is fairly standard for stdout redirection, so it would be nice to
use that for notmuch, as well.)

Either of these seem like the right approach to me. I might favor (1)
just a bit so I don't have to choose between different ways of doing the
same thing, but that's a small point. As Jamie said, they're pretty
much the same.

The option 2, i.e. optional --write (or -o|--output) should be available;
someone may run notmuch without using environment that provides
redirections (or it is just plain simpler to give the command line option
instead of doing redirections).

If that were the case then none of the other notmuch commands would work
in the environment either.  If that's a concern, then notmuch should
have a generic --redirect option that works for all commands, as Tom
suggested out earlier.

Another option occured to me that is consistent at least with notmuch
tag and notmuch show would be to support the following transitional
syntaxes

        notmuch dump file
        notmuch dump file [--] search terms
        notmuch dump -- search terms

the first two could then be deprecated, and eventually the syntax

    notmuch dump search terms 

could be enabled.

the question of whether to support 

    notmuch dump --file foo.txt

or something like 

   notmuch --stdout=foo.txt dump

could be dealt with later.

Good point. I Agree. So, no spesific --write|-o|--output for dump is my
current vote.

OK, here is my proposal to add search terms to notmuch dump.

Most of the work is in argument processing. It would be nice if we
could factor some of that out.

In this case there would be 2 transitional syntaxes. IMHO 

'notmuch dump <search-terms>' causes least transitional pain.

I don't understand what you mean here. Can you elaborate?

  notmuch dump <search-terms> 

is not a transitional syntax, but rather a new syntax that breaks
existing scripts. 

The advantage of using -- here is that it allows things like

    notmuch dump --format=something-better -- --output

to search for --output (of course the query is then parsed a bit
surprisingly, but this is a different issue.)

Hey, David.  I think this is a fine approach, Go with the transitional
"--" separator for one release or so, with a deprecation warning, and
then move to the standard form in the release after that.

I realize the later probably requires more work, since we would have to
replace all print calls with a new function, but I think it's the
cleaner and more elegant solution.  There's no reason to have an output
redirection option for "dump"s and not for any of the other commands.

As far as I know, freopen(3) makes this a one-liner. I think the hardest
part of this would be figuring out the name of the option ;)

Having worked in the same area ;-), I felt competent to review this.  And
I definitely do like David's approach.  The patches look good, with the
following comments:

What's missing is adding (roughly) the same text to the notmuch manpage,
``notmuch help dump'', NEWS file.  These should be added to the
respective patches, for enhance functionality and deprecation of output
filename.

> 2b7781d test: all dump-restore tests should be working now

I would suggest to combine these two into one patch: enhance
implementation (7a203d6) and update the tests (2b7781d) is one unit.

I don't understand the purpose of the second test above.  Was this meant
to be ``notmuch dump dump-1-arg-dash.actual --'' (as suggested by the
description), or ``notmuch dump -- > dump-1-arg-dash.actual''?

Same issue here.


That mark was introduced in commit 03146f20, so isn't available in the
release branch yet.  Let's just use `point-max' instead, merge 'release'
into 'master', and change it back to `mark' there.  It's better to break
MML tags in the user's sig for a little while than leave this security
hole wide open.

Hi

This is looking good: I have two comments the second of which is significant.

The first is do you want to sort (alphabetically) the headerline tags?
As it stands they are in the order they appear in the thread which is
probably not what is wanted.

The second is that there is a notmuch-show-tag-all functions to tag all
messages in the thread. Your patch is quadratic for the update (as it
calculates the list of thread tags once for each message). The attached
patch would avoid this and doesn't look too bad. (Note I retained
no-headerline-update as an optional argument in case there are out of
tree callers, eg users' .emacs files)

[Note this is not purely of academic interest: on my test large thread
(178 messages) updating the display after tagging all messages took some
seconds without my patch and almost no time with it.]

Best wishes 

Mark

Re:

[Mark Walters]

Hi

I have been playing with this. One thing that is worrying me a little at
the moment is that the man page looks different from before (imo less
nice). More importantly, I can't tweak the rst to get the generated
pages to look like the current ones (this could just be my lack of skill
with rst)

I do like the general approach but would like to make sure we can get
manpages (amongst other things) that we like from it. See below for one
example which I thought looked less nice

Best wishes

Mark



The particular  thing is the indentation for options (eg options in the
notmuch.1 page) In the original pages it looks like

OPTIONS
       Supported global options for notmuch include

           --help

               Print a synopsis of available commands and exit.

and in the new ones

OPTIONS
       Supported global options for notmuch include

       --help

       Print a synopsis of available commands and exit.

I find this makes it more difficult to scan the man page quickly.

This rst is mainly autogenerated, and hence a bit ugly.

This particular example doesn't seem too hard to fix; try replacing the
relevant bit of notmuch.rst with


Supported global options for \ **notmuch**\  include

  \ --help
    Print a synopsis of available commands and exit.

  \ --version
    Print the installed version of notmuch, and exit.

  \ --config=FILE
    Specify the configuration file to use. This overrides any
    configuration file specified by ${NOTMUCH_CONFIG}.

or

Supported global options for \ **notmuch**\  include

--help         Print a synopsis of available commands and exit.

--version      Print the installed version of notmuch, and exit.

--config=FILE  Specify the configuration file to use. This overrides any
               configuration file specified by ${NOTMUCH_CONFIG}.

--help    Print a synopsis of available commands and exit.


The latter is an "option list" [1], so I guess is the most official way
to do it.

The former is a more generic "definition list"

Hi

I haven't tested this but it looks correct: more broadly I think this is
needed whenever notmuch-show has to get a part directly rather than just
from the sexp reply.

Hi

Just to confirm I have now tested this -- it compiles and test suite
passes. (Note I don't have suitable encrypted messages to test).

Hi

Just to confirm I have now tested this -- it compiles and test suite
passes. (Note I don't have suitable encrypted messages to test).

Anyway LGTM +1

Pushed to master. For future reference it would be nice if the actual
git send-email output made to the list, so I don't have to fix up the
commit message by hand.

I haven't had a chance to test the new version yet, but I think I know
what you mean from testing counsel-imenu. Is it worth adding a
customization variable so that the user can choose indentation if they
have a more sophisticated imenu front end?

So this version is ok with both builtin and counsel imenu front
ends. It's up to you. Do you want to leave the question of controllable
indentation for a later commit or add it now?

if you are ok to merge that right now, that would be perfect for

So I think I'd add the @ syntax in the DATE AND TIME SEARCH section,
maybe under a separate new heading, and just emphasize this here is
about the non-date prefixed thing.
