Hello world,
I'm using notmuch and mutt-kz flawlessly for over a year,
and I'm really happy with them, so thank you guys for providing
such great tools!
So I updated the notmuchmail.org wikipage about mutt:
http://notmuchmail.org/notmuch-mutt/
I also wanted to enable completion from within vim, so I extended
the mutt_addresses.py script, so it creates and updates a cache of
addresses in a sqlite3 database. It is available on pypi, so you can use
it as a standalone CLI application:
https://github.com/guyzmo/notmuch-abook/
About that one, I made the choice to use sqlite3 as backend,
because it was an easy way to create fast queries of addresses, but I
was wondering if it would not be more intelligent to integrate the
addresses indexing in the xapian database directly?
And finally, I have tried to compile the vala-notmuch addressbook,
but the compilation is failing because of some change in the
database_open call, and I don't have much time to understand Vala's API
mappings to C. But I've been told it is lightning fast when querying
notmuch directly.
Has anyone patched that code, and still use it with latest
notmuch? I'd give it a try to replace my sqlite3 backend in the
script.
Cheers,
