What happenend?

In the last few weeks, we had great progress. Here are the most important changes:

d3b38b5a introduced “pipe magic” - this prepares libimagrt to be able to pipe the imag store from one imag command (or external command) to the next one.
b374f21d changed imag-contact to list emails comma seperated.
6ec50970 added the find command to imag-contact.
5609651f added functionality so that imag-contact can output the contact data in JSON. This is helpful when invoking imag-contact from an external program (like mutt) and reading the output into that program.
dfb706b3 changed imag-edit to be able to receive store ids on stdin. This makes imag ids | fzf | imag edit -I possible.
ee72e61b rewrote the CLI of imag-tag.
c5154e83 changed libimagrt so that the rt.editor setting was considered for building the editor command.
1d3994d1 changed imag ids to not print the full filepath by default.
cc9c746c removed a great deal of outdated documentation.
58f50ac2 changed imag-habit so that already done habits can be shown.
c39a1f82 changed libimagstore::store::Store::create() so that it fails if the entry already exists. This was not done before (which was a bug) so that create was the same as retrieve.
fd91662e fixed imag-init to create the store directory as well.
96b6beff added header edit support in imag-edit and libimagentryedit.
7907ed96 changed imag-link so that it uses an ascii table for output by default.
ec2f87af fixed libimagrt to pass /dev/tty to the editor command, so that vim does not trash the terminal.
8492f149 added a feature in libimagrt to handle unknown subcommands. With this, a user is able to write an executable imag-store-dosomething which gets automatically invoked by imag-store if the dosomething subcommand does not exists.
1d5171d7 added support for viewing multiple entries with one invocation of the command in imag-view.
a14ab7b6 added support in imag-contact find for printing the store id / file path instead of showing the contact.
2f47bece added support for reading the store ids for the entries to view from stdin in imag-view.

What will happen

I had a glance at the changelog file in the repository before writing this post and I found, that the changelog is huge already. Because of that I will release imag 0.7.0 early, and without the “wiki”, “calendar” and “flashcard” module I initially planned for this release.

I think I won’t be able to get imag-calendar ready until May (my journey starts in May and I won’t be able to work on imag very much from May until early 2019, sadly). Thus, I rather release 0.7.0 early and without imag-calendar rather than not at all.

Maybe I get imag-wiki ready until May, which would be really cool and result in imag 0.8.0, but I’m not sure I will make it.

So… be prepared for the next imag release in the next few days!
