MU ADD(1)		    General Commands Manual		     MU	ADD(1)

NAME
       mu-add -	add one	or more	messages to the	database

SYNOPSIS
       mu [COMMON-OPTIONS] add [OPTIONS] FILE...

DESCRIPTION
       mu  add	is  the	command	to add specific	message	files to the database.
       Each file must be specified with	an absolute path.

ADD OPTIONS
   --muhome
       Use a non-default directory to store and	read the database,  write  the
       logs,  etc.   By	 default, mu uses the XDG Base Directory Specification
       (e.g. on	GNU/Linux this defaults	to ~/.cache/mu and ~/.config/mu). Ear-
       lier  versions  of  mu  defaulted  to   ~/.mu,	which	now   requires
       --muhome=~/.mu.

       The  environment	 variable  MUHOME  can	be  used  as an	alternative to
       --muhome. The latter has	precedence.

COMMON OPTIONS
   -d, --debug
       Makes mu	generate extra debug information,  useful  for	debugging  the
       program	itself.	 Debug	information goes to the	standard logging loca-
       tion; see mu(1).

   -q, --quiet
       Causes mu not to	output informational messages and progress information
       to standard output, but only to the log file. Error messages will still
       be sent to standard error. Note that  mu	 index	is  much  faster  with
       --quiet,	 so  it	 is recommended	you use	this option when using mu from
       scripts etc.

   --log-stderr
       Causes mu to not	output log messages to standard	error, in addition  to
       sending them to the standard logging location.

   --nocolor
       Do  not	use ANSI colors. The environment variable NO_COLOR can be used
       as an alternative to --nocolor.

   -V, --version
       Prints mu version and copyright information.

   -h, --help
       Lists the various command line options.

EXIT CODE
       This command returns 0 upon successful completion, or a	non-zero  exit
       code otherwise.

       0.  success

       2.  no matches found. Try a different query

       11. database  schema  mismatch.	You  need to re-initialize mu, see mu-
	   init(1)

       19. failed to acquire lock. Some	other program has exclusive access  to
	   the mu database

       99. caught an exception
