mbsync: per account multiple channels (#1360)
* mbsync: option for configuring a channel A channel is a relationship between 2 directories/boxes/mailboxes between the local machine (slave) and the remote mail server (master). Each channel must be given at least: * an account-unique name * a pattern for which mailboxes to sync from master * a pattern for what directory where that mail ends up on the slave Additional options can be added later. * mbsync: option for configuring a group A group is a grouping of channels together, so that many channels with very different names can be handled as a single entity. Groups are unique in mbsync because they will shadow channels that have the same name on the command-line. * mbsync: create groups configuration attribute This is the end of the configuration that the end-user will use. They will specify an attribute set that contains the name for the group, so they can say `accounts.email.accounts.<aname>.groups.<gname>` to access the configuration for the group with the name `<gname>`. * mbsync: write function to generate group-channel blocks This function takes in a set of groups, and their consituent channels and writes the appropriate .mbsyncrc block. The block is as shown below: Group groupName1 Channel channelName1 Channel channelName2 Group groupName2 Channel channelName3 Each group must have a unique name, no matter which account it is declared under. The same holds true for channels. However, if there is a group that shares the same name as the channel, the channel will effectively be "shadowed" by the group, and mbsync will default to working with the group in that case. * mbsync: write function to generate channel configuration blocks This function takes in a set of groups, which includes their consituent channels and writes the appropriate .mbsyncrc block for the channel. The block that is generated is shown below: Channel groupName1-channelName1 Master :<accountName>-remote:<master-pattern> Slave :<accountName>-local:<slave-pattern> Channel groupName2-channelName2 Master :<accountName>-remote:<master-pattern> Slave :<accountName>-local:<slave-pattern> Each group must have a unique name, no matter which account it is declared under. The same holds true for channels. Using channels with the patterns set up this way allows one to specify which maildir directories are to be synchronized FROM the master TO the slave. In addition, it allows for these maildirs to be remapped, between the master server and the local slave. This is critical, because Gmail has a strange way of storing its mail that makes using mbsync, mu, and mu4e more difficult. There are additional channel parameters that are already present in this codebase from the previous use of group-channel configuration, which will be reused. * mbsync: set the submodule's names field according to parameter This is the same method as is used in creating an email account, named `<name>` under `accounts.email.accounts.<name>`. This allows the user to specify groups and channels, in a list-like format, but still gets the "namespacing" to more easily handle the options available in each of these locations. * mbsync: provide examples of master/slave patterns for channels * mbsync: create nested-let function to generate channel pattern This pattern is required to either NOT be present, which means the master pattern is used to match, or it has a list of patterns to use beneath the master maildir to match against. This function checks to ensure that if patterns is not empty, ONLY then is the `Pattern` keyword printed. Otherwise, there are many, many problems. If there IS a list of patterns, then we use proper escaping methods to ensure that the exact string is constructed. * mbsync: per-account groups can have additional patterns Gave the `accounts.email.accounts.<name>.mbsync.groups.<gname>.channel.<cname>` set a `patterns` option, which will allow for greater customization and filtering of the master maildir to sync to the slave maildir. * mbsync: add extraConfig option for easier-to-format options These are options that can be handled by the `genSection` function in the `genAccountFunction`, so they are left to the user to decide. Most of these are made on a global basis anyways. * mbsync: remove unneeded extraConfig.channel This was originally placed here, seemingly, just to get this module working. However, this field is actually more confusing now that a separate per-channel configuration option for extra configurations has been made available. * mbsync: correct and improve comment in masterPattern description * mbsync: switch channel/group generation to new functions Changing this out is what moves us from the old system to the new one. Instead of having a single channel manage a whole mailbox, we can now specify an attribute set of groups that should correspond to an email account. Each of these groups contains an attribute set of channels that make it up, and are grouped together for synchronization. In addition, each of these channels can have additional IMAP4 parameters attached to them to further refine synchronization. Lastly, each of the channels is grouped together under the Group section, ensuring that the channels' mailboxes synchronize as they have been specified. * mbsync: only generate group/channel configuration if channels present Typically, when a group is specified, channels will be specified as well. However, if due to error or mistake, the user forgets to specify ANY channels for a group, we should not generate that group's information. This means that no channels are specified (which maps the remote master to local slave). In addition, the `Group <gName>` block (which brings the separate channels together) is also not generated. Another thing to consider is that a user might specify a group and a channel, but perform no additional configuration of the channel. In a configuration, this would be realized by `accounts.email.accounts.<aName>.mbsync.groups.<gName>.channels.<cName>;` This creates the channel with the name `<cName>` and the `masterPattern`, `slavePattern`, and `patterns` fields use their defaults. By definitions set within mbsync, these defaults actually specify that the remote master's `INBOX` mail directory is synchronized to the local slave's `INBOX` directory. So, if there is a channel that has no fields specified, then we DO want to generate its configuration. But if there is a group that has no channels, then we do NOT generate it. * mbsync: acc comment explaining why groups attr set is never empty * Revert "mbsync: remove unneeded extraConfig.channel" This reverts commit |

tests: clean up tests
- Move all module tests to their own directories. - Avoid duplication of `// import`. |
