Subject: Add support for `thread` field in `notmuch show`
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2020 19:18:56 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+Tk8fwaFZrX6DkkjLsoS7DQsJQM=sb9gOXxhOGTcW50G4CuyQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
According to the `devel/schemata` the message object doesn't contain
the thread identifier to which it was assigned in the database.
Sometimes, for example in an UI that displays a search result at
message level, it would be useful to know the thread each message
belongs to, so the user can easily switch to the entire thread.
I know that one can use `thread:{id:MESSAGE_ID}` to achieve the same
result, however:
* it is somewhat cumbersome for the integrator;
* having the thread identifier explicitly, could be used as a key in a
cache, or other internal lookups;
In fact the only way one can extract the thread identifier via the
`notmuch` CLI is to use `notmuch search --output=threads --
id:MESSAGE_ID`
Ciprian.
