I read and liked your post. I like you love python but have to deal daily with Java at work and have the same kind of thinking. With the age, I guess that what matters is the result and not with what it has been built. Of course I like expe

Also really like it. Nice simple neat and friendly. Would be nice to add standard theme such as the europass CV.

I am maintaining Gmvault ( http://www.gmvault.org ) and unfortunately I have the same issue. I get frustrated because I spend most of the time supporting users. It is good but I have plenty of ideas that I would like to implement

This is nice but miss a way to order tasks and groups (using priority for example). Would be also nice to relate groups to each others with a link (arrow something) to organise your project diagram. Finally the print doesn't work. If you ca

I think he was more talking about tools like Apache Ant.

Great. Thanks for making it available freely. It will be very useful to build desktop application with bootstrap and node-webkit or appjs for example.

I totally agree with you. What is the lesson here ? You need indexes to speed up queries in any structured data storage. Uh, great but I am worried about the glipho backend then. All this to get a bit of advertising.

Ok I will check the html5rocks web site. Thanks

Thanks I will check that possibility. It might be easier to manage than chromium or nodejs as a local desktop app.

Still it relies on wxPython or PyQT which is my problem because you are limited to the existing widgets somehow (or you need to create your own widgets and then it is slow and painful).

@mouseroot. Ok thanks for the advice. When I was talking about http server, I meant locally on the user's machine(start a nodejs for example and kill it when the user stop the application somehow). Other solution is to use chromium with a f

ok but after practically what do I do ? I run it in a chromium, I launch a HTTP server ? In the end I want to make a desktop GUI and I would like a solution which is not too clunky

Ask HN:To build a GUI should I take the HTML5/js path or stick to older techs?

I agree it sucks to have lost the traffic graph. Would love to have it back

This was because of the planned Github downtime.

couldn't have said it better. In addition to emails, chats are also backed up with v1.7-beta

Gmvault stores email content in individual files as text files (EML file) so it should be pretty easy to add some export functionalities (it might be a second tool). I will add that in the road map for v2.0.

You can already do that by 7zipping the subdir db of the Gmvault-db dir. I think that 7zip can archive a directory tree. You could also tar it and 7zip it to have one dir containing everything.

Yes exactly, I was thinking more of an export option to export in different formats.

thanks for the support. You can backup multiple accounts in one data directory (Gmvault-db) with the option --multiple-db-owner. When you restore though all the emails from this Gmvault-db will go to one Gmail account. If you want to have t

As said above OfflineIMAP will create a blend copy of your emails and you will loose quite a lot of very interesting features when copying them to a standard IMAP server. That said I understand the need and will think on an approach to allo

Currently Gmvault gives you the ability to save your emails on disk and restore them on any Gmail account with all the features. For example labels will be restored as identical. Many email backup tools are very generic and you will loose q

This is a great opportunity to suggest new features/wishes for this tool. Please let me know what you would like to have to v2.0

I am also an advocate of releasing early as that will help you getting some feedback from the users. Of course you need to reach a certain point in order to do that. Also like the poster.

Gmvault uses mainly OAuth to authenticate you so there is no need to store any passwords. The token will only allow you to access your Gmail account via IMAP. As an alternative there is a mode where you can use your Gmail passowrd and it ca
