Operating System: Windows
Client (Notes, Nomad Web, Nomad Mobile, Android/iOS, browser version): Notes

Hello everyone,

I’m new to this forum so I don’t know if this is the right place to post or not, but I’m looking for feedback or suggestions for a tool I made that can be used alongside the HCL Domino Notes client. (GitHub - NexelOfficial/opennotes: A fast, multi-threaded CLI tool for evaluating @Formula on Views powered by the HCL Domino C API)

The tool in question allows users that have the Notes client installed, to query items from a View and display them in the terminal. This allows for quick querying of a View, or even evaluating @Formula over all items in a View. The tool runs in multiple threads, and is written using modern C++ in mind.

I would love to hear your feedback, or suggestions for this tool.

With kind regards,

Nathan

Could you please make a ready release version, that makes it easier for everybody to test.
Also some use cases and cmd lines running tests and perhaps an example database.

Thanks for the suggestion. I’m currently finishing up some improvements and bug fixes, and will probably upload a release to Chocolatey. It’s a popular package manager for Windows.

An example database is not really applicable as this tool will work on any database, local or remote.

I mean some examples how to use the tool.

in what format is the result returned?

If I understand the use case that you can get data from a view perhaps return as json, xml would be a good thing.

Thanks. I will provide some practical use cases in the README, and file export to common formats. I will update with a post when finished.

Another feature I’ve worked on is a development server. This will track the database and emit WebSocket events on file update. Once again, I will add some use case examples to the README when finished.
