NOTMUCH-HOOKS(5)

NAME

       notmuch-hooks - hooks for notmuch

SYNOPSIS

           $DATABASEDIR/.notmuch/hooks/*

DESCRIPTION

       Hooks  are  scripts (or arbitrary executables or symlinks to such) that
       notmuch invokes before and after certain actions. These scripts  reside
       in  the .notmuch/hooks directory within the database directory and must
       have executable permissions.

       The currently available hooks are described below.

           pre-new

                  This hook is invoked by the new command before  scanning  or
                  importing new messages into the database. If this hook exits
                  with a non-zero status, notmuch will abort further  process-
                  ing of the new command.

                  Typically  this  hook is used for fetching or delivering new
                  mail to be imported into the database.

           post-new

                  This hook is invoked by the new command after  new  messages
                  have  been  imported into the database and initial tags have
                  been applied. The hook will not be run if  there  have  been
                  any errors during the scan or import.

                  Typically   this   hook   is   used  to  perform  additional
                  query-based tagging on the imported messages.
