Here's a proposed API change to make that possible in the future. N.B. This breaks bindings and contrib/notmuch-deliver. BR, Jani.

* [PATCH 2/2] lib: introduce notmuch_database_new for initializing a database handle 2013-12-01 13:13 [PATCH 0/2] lib: introduce notmuch_database_new Jani Nikula 2013-12-01 13:13 ` [PATCH 1/2] lib: add return status to database close and destroy Jani Nikula @ 2013-12-01 13:14 ` Jani Nikula 2013-12-03 11:47 ` David Bremner 2013-12-04 23:11 ` Austin Clements 1 sibling, 2 replies; 14+ messages in thread From: Jani Nikula @ 2013-12-01 13:14 UTC (permalink / raw) To: notmuch There is a need for setting options before opening a database, such as setting a logging function to use instead of writing to stdout or stderr. It would be possible to do this by adding new parameters to notmuch_database_create and notmuch_database_open, but maintaining a backwards compatible API and ABI when new options are added becomes burdensome. Instead, split the opaque database object creation from notmuch_database_create and notmuch_database_open into a new notmuch_database_new call, to allow operations on the handle before create and open. This creates API and ABI breakage now, but allows easier future extensions. The notmuch_database_new call becomes a natural pair to the already existing notmuch_database_destroy, and it should be possible to call open/close multiple times using an initialized handle. --- lib/database.cc | 64 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------ lib/notmuch.h | 52 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- notmuch-compact.c | 11 ++++++++- notmuch-count.c | 10 ++++++-- notmuch-dump.c | 10 ++++++-- notmuch-insert.c | 10 ++++++-- notmuch-new.c | 14 +++++++----- notmuch-reply.c | 10 ++++++-- notmuch-restore.c | 10 ++++++-- notmuch-search.c | 10 ++++++-- notmuch-show.c | 10 ++++++-- notmuch-tag.c | 10 ++++++-- test/random-corpus.c | 10 ++++++-- test/symbol-test.cc | 3 ++- 14 files changed, 166 insertions(+), 68 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/database.cc b/lib/database.cc index 98e2c31..386b93a 100644 --- a/lib/database.cc +++ b/lib/database.cc @@ -539,10 +539,21 @@ parse_references (void *ctx, } notmuch_status_t -notmuch_database_create (const char *path, notmuch_database_t **database) +notmuch_database_new (notmuch_database_t **notmuch) +{ + /* Note: try to avoid error conditions!

My gut feeling says no. Same for the path argument suggested by Tomi. What would it mean to change the mode while the database is open? Or the path? I think we'd have to check for this, and fail. Mode is only meaningful for open, and path for open, create and compact. I think adding such state modifiers would make the interface feel more complex, but I'm open to arguments to the contrary.

A high-level comment about the API: Currently, an allocated notmuch_database_t has two "memory states", if you will: open and closed. (I wish it didn't have any memory states, and was on the fence about this API for a while until I realized that the ship had already sailed.) It's pretty clear how all of the notmuch APIs will behave in both states (modulo some bounded non-determinism in the closed state). I think this patch introduces a new "pre-open" state, and I don't know how most of the notmuch APIs behave in that state. My guess is poorly. If it's feasible, I'd much rather a fresh baked notmuch_database_t act like it's in the closed state, including that notmuch_database_{create,open} are well-defined as transitions from closed state to open state (even if the closed state was reached by calling notmuch_database_close). Or, if we do have a "pre-open" state, it should at least be well-specified what that means (preferably the specification is *not* "most APIs segfault"). Orthogonally -- and this may be a complete pipe dream of mine -- if we just had a way to return more detailed error information than a simple error code from notmuch_database_{create,open}, I think we wouldn't need any of this. Everything that these functions currently log (modulo one warning) is error details, so if we could return the error details *with the error* or somehow make them accessible, we wouldn't need a logger at this point (or at several other points in the library). > --- > lib/database.cc | 64 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------ > lib/notmuch.h | 52 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- > notmuch-compact.c | 11 ++++++++- > notmuch-count.c | 10 ++++++-- > notmuch-dump.c | 10 ++++++-- > notmuch-insert.c | 10 ++++++-- > notmuch-new.c | 14 +++++++----- > notmuch-reply.c | 10 ++++++-- > notmuch-restore.c | 10 ++++++-- > notmuch-search.c | 10 ++++++-- > notmuch-show.c | 10 ++++++-- > notmuch-tag.c | 10 ++++++-- > test/random-corpus.c | 10 ++++++-- > test/symbol-test.cc | 3 ++- > 14 files changed, 166 insertions(+), 68 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/lib/database.cc b/lib/database.cc > index 98e2c31..386b93a 100644 > --- a/lib/database.cc > +++ b/lib/database.cc > @@ -539,10 +539,21 @@ parse_references (void *ctx, > } > > notmuch_status_t > -notmuch_database_create (const char *path, notmuch_database_t **database) > +notmuch_database_new (notmuch_database_t **notmuch) The naming of this is unfortunate... Other APIs use x_create to allocate objects (e.g., notmuch_query_create, several internal APIs). I would lean towards calling this function notmuch_database_create, but that leaves the question of what to call the other. While we're breaking APIs, would it be completely crazy to merge open and create into one API with an extra mode to indicate creation (it can be its own mode because creation implies read/write)? (Or, in UNIX tradition, we could call this function notmuch_database_create and the other notmuch_database_creat.) notmuch_database_create is already just a shell around notmuch_database_open (we could keep it as a separate function, but just make it internal). > +{ > + /* Note: try to avoid error conditions!

Just to confirm, are you referring to the state between close and destroy/open? Btw what is the use case we have separate close and destroy for? To be able to access the data cached in memory after the db has been closed? > It's pretty clear how all of the notmuch APIs will > behave in both states (modulo some bounded non-determinism in the > closed state).

Agreed. I tried to look into this earlier, but was hitting dead ends *if* we want to keep reporting user friendly error status in open/create.

Agreed on the naming being unfortunate, though I'll dodge further bikeshedding. ;) Merging open and create sounds all right, though it's a minor detail in the bigger picture of this patch.
