beagle & soc07 26 Jul 2007 11:00 pm
Thunderbird backend is out!
So, here it is! I just committed the code and you can grab it with:
svn co http://svn.gnome.org/svn/beagle/branches/beagle-tbird-soc07
With this beagle should be able to index your data and put it in its right place. There are some issues still though:
- Removing data in Thunderbird does not remove data from beagle (yet)
- There are some encoding issues that I’m working on (you will most likely notice this)
- beagle-search is not updated with the latest URI handlers, so you won’t be able to open your data (just search it)
Also, you need the mozilla-thunderbird-dev package to build beagle with the Thunderbird backend (the extension needs this). So make sure you install it before compiling. Check out this page for more information about compiling beagle (in case you never have done this before).
I just want to point out that you should not expect too much from this yet as I need a couple of days to clear things up. But I encourage you to try it out and come with input of course 
Note: I’m not uploading any more .xpi files as you will find your very own .xpi file in the thunderbird-extension directory once you’ve built beagle.

Hi, I can’t build the extension as I don’t have the relevant files. Could you email me the .xpi ? Also, please ignore my previous email, I was looking at the older version and I should have been using this one.
Thanks,
Dinesh

Hello,
The current thunderbird do not allow to open properly the imap urls you were generating in your plugin.
I have posted a fix on
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=385017
It’s integrated in 3.x branch, but not in current 2.x
Just to keep you inform, keep up the good work.

I’ll throw some stuff up tomorrow since I’ve done a lot of changes. Best would be if you could install the missing dependencies though. What distribution are you building on? My current platform is Ubuntu and the needed packages are mozilla-thunderbird-dev and mozilla-firefox-dev. The later one is needed for xpidl. Might be named somewhat different in other distributions but you should probably look for something like that.
Coren:
Yeah, I’m aware of the URI problems as I’ve been talking with David about it. Is it even possible to generate “valid” URIs using the XPCOM that opens “something” in Thunderbird today? I currently use getUriForMsg found in nsIMsgFolder but this seems to be rather useless (passing generated URIs to Thunderbird yields no results whatsoever). Maybe you know anything about this? Frankly, would be quite boring if we couldn’t open anything in Thunderbird until 3.x of Thunderbird.
