* ipc: disable IPC completely when disable-ipc=trueJason Cox2024-04-131-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Truly disable IPC when disable-ipc is set to true in aerc.conf. Don't run commands over IPC and don't start an IPC server. Being able to disable IPC in the config is useful because it allows making aerc open mailto links in a new instance without modifying the aerc.desktop file. There are of course potential security benefits as well. Changelog-changed: The `disable-ipc` option in `aerc.conf` completely disables IPC.

* ipc: retry failed command directly, not over IPCJason Cox2024-04-131-41/+5
| | | | | | | | | If IPC fails the first time we try it, we know that no other aerc instance is running. When we retry, run the command directly instead of going through the current instance's own IPC server. Signed-off-by: Jason Cox <me@jasoncarloscox.com> Acked-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc>
* ipc: improve error handlingJason Cox2024-04-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Detect error responses in addition to errors connecting, sending the request, and receiving the response. If an error occurs when retrying the IPC call, keep the new aerc instance running and simply show the error. We already know (due to the initial failed IPC call) that no other aerc instance is running. Keeping the new instance open also improves the visibility of the error in some cases, such as when clicking on a malformed mailto link causes a new aerc instance to open.

* ipc: accept verbatim commandsJason Cox2024-02-191-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When aerc receives a command over IPC, it quotes the arguments before passing them on to the internal command parser. In many cases, the parser interprets the quotes, and the command runs with the arguments exactly as they were specified in the shell. In some cases, though, the quotes are not interpreted and the additional quotes can cause the command to fail. Simply eliminating the addition of quotes is not possible because some commands need them. Allow a command and its arguments to be specified as a single argument in the shell. In that case, pass that argument verbatim to the internal command parser so that it is interpreted exactly as if it had been typed directly in aerc's command line.

* ipc: wait for app to be ready before accepting commandsRobin Jarry2024-01-311-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass a cancellable context to the IPC server and defer accepting connections until the first worker message has been received by the main thread. This is not a real fix for the :split command not working at startup. :split requires a mail store to be present on the currently selected account tab+folder. I could have waited for a types.DirectoryContents message but it seems silly and bug prone since such a message may never arrive and we don't want to pool IPC messages forever. Also, a types.DirectoryContents message may arrive for one account but :split is only effective *per account* and the default selected account tab is the first one. In any case, this band aid prevents aerc from crashing or breaking down the terminal when running IPC commands in the aerc-startup hook.

* commands: pass raw command line down to template evaluationRobin Jarry2023-10-281-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some commands need to invoke others and/or run shell commands. For this, we need the raw command line as entered by the user. Pass it down the call chain just before it is split to invoke the command Execute method. Remove unit tests for the template expand() test which does have any added value now that it is performed on a single string without any quote juggling. Update all code to handle a single string instead of a list of arguments. Introduce a new dependency on git.sr.ht/~rjarry/go-opt to deal with shell splitting. This is in preparation for using opt.ArgsToStruct to parse arguments for all aerc commands. There should be no functional change after this patch.

* ipc: allow triggering internal commands via IPCMoritz Poldrack2023-03-071-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In overhauling the IPC, it has become necessary to switch to a more extendable message format, to ensure more complex commands can be sent. Messages have the following basic structure and must not contain linebreaks, as these are used to delimit separate messages from one another. {"arguments": ["mailto:moritz@poldrack.dev"]} The responses have the following structure: {"error": "epic fail"} If the IPC request was successful, "error" will be empty. {"error": ""} Signed-off-by: Moritz Poldrack <git@moritz.sh> Signed-off-by: Robin Jarry <robin@jarry.cc>
