Telescope Notmuch Complete

This will extract email addresses from notmuch and present them using Telescope.

Someone showed me this which seemed pretty nifty. I was looking at Telescope at the time so thought I would take a run. It is useful when writing emails in mutt with the following options :

set edit_headers=yes # https://neomutt.org/guide/reference#edit_headers
set autoedit=yes # https://neomutt.org/guide/reference#autoedit

Requirements

• Telescope
• jq

Installation

Using Packer:

    use {
        "https://codeberg.org/JoshuaCrewe/telescope-notmuch.nvim.git",
        config = function()
            require"telescope".load_extension("notmuch")
        end,
        ft = {'mail'}
    }

Note: There does seem to be a performance hit when loading this plugin (vim boots slower), setting a filetype is a good way of limiting this.

The mapping which I use (dial x for [p]eople :

-- Create mappings with noremap option set to true
function map(mode, lhs, rhs, opts)
    local options = {noremap = true, silent = true}
    if opts then options = vim.tbl_extend('force', options, opts) end
    vim.api.nvim_set_keymap(mode, lhs, rhs, options)
end

map("i", "<c-x><c-p>", "<cmd>Telescope notmuch theme=cursor<CR>")

Notmuch

Under the hood it runs the following command :

notmuch address --format=json ==deduplicate=address "*"
