* ipc: allow triggering internal commands via IPCMoritz Poldrack2023-03-071-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to make automation easier, it's useful to be able to send commands to aerc via IPC. This can be done by calling the aerc binary followed by a colon and the command to run. For example: aerc :read && aerc :remark && aerc :archive month Security to ensure no malicious commands are run is deferred to the user. By default the socket is only writable by the user. This is considered sufficient as the potential harm an attacker gaining write-access to a user's session can cause is significantly greater than "can delete some emails". To ensure users with an according threat model, it is possible to disable command IPC. mailto-handling is unaffected even though it works over IPC as it is absolutely non-destructive.

* compose: allow writing multipart/alternative messagesRobin Jarry2022-12-071-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new :multipart command that can be executed on the composer review screen. This command takes a MIME type as argument which needs to match a setting in the new [multipart-converters] section of aerc.conf. A part can be removed by using the -d flag. The [multipart-converters] section has MIME types associated with commands. These commands are executed with sh -c every time the main email body is updated to generate each part content. The commands are expected to output valid UTF-8 text. If a command fails, an explicit error will be printed next to the part MIME type to allow users to debug their issue but the email may still be sent anyway with an empty alternative part. This is mostly intended for people who *really* need to send html messages for their boss or for corporate reasons. For now, it is a manual and explicit action to convert a message in such a way. Here is an example configuration: [multipart-converters] text/html = pandoc -f markdown -t html And the associated binding to append an HTML alternative to a message: [compose::review] H = :multipart text/html<enter> hh = :multipart -d text/html<enter> Link: https://lists.sr.ht/~rjarry/aerc-discuss/%3CCO5KH4W57XNB.2PZLR1CNFK22H%40mashenka%3E Co-authored-by: Eric McConville <emcconville@emcconville.com> Signed-off-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc> Tested-by: Bence Ferdinandy <bence@ferdinandy.com> Acked-by: Moritz Poldrack <moritz@poldrack.dev>

* attach: open file picker menu with -m flagKoni Marti2022-11-211-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Open a user-defined file picker with the -m flag for the attach command to select attachments. Specify your file picker of choice with the 'file-picker-cmd' in the [composer] section of aerc.conf, e.g. "file-picker-cmd=fzf -m". A '%s' placeholder can be used in the 'file-picker-cmd' which is then substituted for the argument <arg> provided to :attach -m <arg>. For example, when you set 'file-picker-cmd=find %s -type f | fzf -m', you can easily change the directory to start the search with ':attach -m <path-to-search>'. Tested with fzf, fzy and peco.

* notmuch: add maildir supportJulian Pidancet2022-10-271-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By associating the notmuch database with a maildir store, we can add the Copy/Move/Delete operations on messages to the notmuch backend. This change assumes that the notmuch database location is also the root of the maildir store. In a previous change, we added the ability to dynamically add and remove message files to the notmuch DB. This change uses this facility to synchronize the database with the filesystem operations on maildir files. While it's still possible to use the query-map file to create virtual folders from notmuch search queries, the sidebar is now loaded with the folders found in the maildir store. With notmuch, two identical but distinct message files can be indexed in the database with the same key. This change takes extra care of only deleting or removing message files from the maildir corresponding to the folder that is currently selected (if any).

* lint: check for bad white space habitsRobin Jarry2022-10-191-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A little coding hygiene cannot hurt. Add a simple awk script to check all source files for bad white space habits: - trailing white space - trailing new lines at the end of files - missing new line at the end of files - spaces followed by tabs The script outputs color when the terminal supports it. It exits with a non-zero code when there was at least one white space issue found. Call the script in the lint step. Example output of the awk script: config/default_styleset:1:# <-- trailing whitespace config/default_styleset:3:# <-- trailing whitespace doc/aerc.1.scd:78: Executes an arbitrary command in the background. Aerc will set the <-- trailing whitespace doc/aerc.1.scd:234: <-- trailing whitespace doc/aerc.1.scd:237: <-- trailing whitespace worker/types/thread_test.go:74: // return ErrSkipThread<-- space(s) followed by tab(s) worker/lib/testdata/message/invalid/hexa: trailing new line(s) Fix issues reported by the script. NB: The ENDFILE match is a GNU extension. It will be ignored on BSD-awk and trailing new lines will not be detected. The lint make target is only invoked on alpine linux which has GNU awk anyway. NB: Empty cells in scdoc tables require trailing white space... Avoid this by setting content in these cells. I don't really see a use for empty cells.

The program is determined in that order of priority: 1) If :open has arguments, they will be used as command to open the attachment. If the arguments contain the {} placeholder, the temporary file will be substituted, otherwise the file path is added at the end of the arguments. 2) If a command is specified in the [openers] section of aerc.conf for the part MIME type, then it is used with the same rules of {} substitution. 3) Finally, fallback to xdg-open/open with the file path as argument.
