[notmuch] Indexing without files and directories
Hi all, I don't want to throw a spanner in the works, but I am intending to use notmuch for indexing in a scenario where the email doesn't hit the disk - the notmuch model seems to rely pretty heavily on directories and files but I'm working with email being delivered to a script for indexing and then stored into a database. So far I've been hacking it by feeding "/dev/stdin" as a filename but that leads to interesting fun when I forget and try to access something via a notmuch_message object. With all this talk of a new object store, can I put in a plea for - at least at the API level - some way of indexing based on a user-defined location identifier? (In my case, a database row ID.) Thanks, Simon
