Extend the saved search plist to include a :display-function property that can customise the display of the saved search. It can change the count string displayed and the name string. Thus the user can customise so that a particular search:
does not show a count (and is thus hello is faster), shows a thread count, show a combined message/thread count, changes colour of the search button based on new messages arriving etc. The display function should use (&rest args) to take a keyword list of arguments. The advantage of this is that it is easy to add extra arguments in a backwards compatible way (existing user scripts will still work). If a user uses this it will not take advantage of the batch counting currently done so will make things slower over remote links (except in cases where no query is done!). It also deletes the :count-query option from the customise for saved searches as this method is much more general. The code still supports the :count-query option though (just the defcustom does not). --- emacs/notmuch-hello.el | 47 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------- 1 file changed, 31 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) diff --git a/emacs/notmuch-hello.el b/emacs/notmuch-hello.el index 0a7004c..7075860 100644 --- a/emacs/notmuch-hello.el +++ b/emacs/notmuch-hello.el @@ -85,12 +85,13 @@ (define-widget 'notmuch-saved-search-plist 'list (group :format "%v" :inline t (const :format " Query: " :query) (string :format "%v"))) (checklist :inline t :format "%v" - (group :format "%v" :inline t (const :format "Count-Query: " :count-query) (string :format "%v")) (group :format "%v" :inline t (const :format "" :sort-order) (choice :tag " Sort Order" (const :tag "Default" nil) (const :tag "Oldest-first" oldest-first) - (const :tag "Newest-first" newest-first)))))) + (const :tag "Newest-first" newest-first))) + (group :format "%v" :inline t (const :format "Display-function: " :display-function) (function :format "%v"))))) + (defcustom notmuch-saved-searches '((:name "inbox" :query "tag:inbox") (:name "unread" :query "tag:unread")) @@ -101,12 +102,19 @@ (defcustom notmuch-saved-searches '((:name "inbox" :query "tag:inbox") :name Name of the search (required). :query Search to run (required). - :count-query Optional extra query to generate the count - shown.
