There is a command and config option. The criteria are a list of the
sort criterion and each can be individually reversed.
This only includes support for sorting in the maildir backend currently.
The other backends are not supported in this patch.
This adds the Mouseable interface. When this is implemented for a
component that item can accept and process mouseevents.
At the top level when a mouse event is received it is passed to the
grid's handler and then it trickles down until it reaches a component
that can actually handle it, such as the tablist, dirlist or msglist.
A mouse event is passed so that components can handle other things such
as scrolling with the mousewheel. The components themselves then perform
the necessary actions.
Clicking emails in the messagelist opens them in a new tab.
Textinputs can be clicked to position the cursor inside them.
Mouseevents are not forwarded to the terminal at the moment.
Elements which do not handle mouse events are not required to implement
the Mouseable interface.
Fixes ~sircmpwn/aerc2#205. Many functions do a nil check on the store,
so this changes Store() so it returns nil when msglist is nil.
It also places the Scroll() behind the nil check in the next-message command.
https://todo.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/aerc2/205
Make the msglist aware of whether we are still initializing or not.
We never stopped spinning the msglist if we didn't get any Directories back
from types.ListDirectories.
With this change, we can set the init state from the account and display
the spinner only if we don't know whether we have directories or not and else
the "no messages" string from the config.
Add a "new-message-bell" option to the UI section of aerc.conf. A new
hook into the message store allows the msglist widget to detect new
messages being added to the displayed list. When new messages are
delivered, and the new-message-bell option is enabled (as it is by
default), the terminal will beep.
This map represents a mapping from directory names to their associated
messagestores anyway so they should be under dirstore. This simply moves
them there and adds some methods required to interact with them.
This patch sets up the trigger config section of aerc.conf.
Each trigger has its own function which is called from the place where
it is triggered. Currently only the new-email trigger is implemented.
The triggers make use of format strings. For instance, in the new-email
trigger this allows the user to select the trigger command and also the
information extracted from the command and placed into their command.
To actually execute the trigger commands the keypresses are simulated.
Further triggers can be implemented in the future.
Formatting of the command is moved to a new package.
Before, the information needed to display different parts of the UI was
tightly coupled to the specific messages being sent back and forth to
the backend worker. Separating out a models package allows us to be more
specific about exactly what a backend is able to and required to
provide for the UI.
Adds an archive command that moves the current message into the folder
specified in the account config entry.
Supports three layouts at this point:
- flat: puts all messages next to each other
- year: creates a folder per year
- month: same as above, plus folders per month
This also adds a "-p" argument to "cp" and "mv" that works like
"--parents" on mkdir(1). We use this to auto-create the directories
for the archive layout.
Consists of 3 functions
* Store: Access to MessageStore type
* SelectedAccount: Access to Account widget that the target widget
belongs to
* SelectedMessage: Current message (selected in msglist or the one we
are viewing)

This commit introduces a new Aerc.Tick function that should be called to
refresh the internal state. This in turn makes each AccountView process worker
events.
The UI goroutine repeatedly refreshes the internal state before drawing a new
frame. The reason for this is that many worker messages may need to be
processed for a single frame, and drawing the UI is far slower than refreshing
the internal state. This has been confirmed in my testing (calling Aerc.Tick
only once per frame results in a slower display).
Many synchronization code has been removed. We can now write widgets without
having to care so much about races. The remaining sync users are:
- widgets/spinner: the spinner value is updated from inside an internal
goroutine
- lib/ui/invalidatable: Invalidate may be called from any goroutine
- lib/ui/grid: same
- lib/ui/ui: an internal goroutine needs read access to UI.exit
- worker/types/worker: Worker.callbacks is used for both worker and UI
callbacks
The exact goroutine requirements for Drawable have been documented.
Many Drawable implementations have their own Invalidate and OnInvalidate
functions, with an unexported onInvalidate field. However OnInvalidate and
Invalidate are usually not called in the same goroutine. This results in a race
on this field, e.g.:

To fix this, introduce a new type, Invalidatable, which protects the field.
Unfortunately the Drawable must be passed to the callback function in
Invalidate, so we still need to re-implement this in each Invalidatable user.
