I execute `notmuch new` after an `offlineimap` sync using `systemd`,
and the way I handle non-standard paths is by specifying the
NOTMUCH_CONFIG as an environmental variable like this:

    $ cat ~/.config/systemd/user/offlineimap-oneshot.service.d/override.conf
    [Service]
    Environment="NOTMUCH_CONFIG=/home/chris/.config/notmuch/config"
    ExecStartPost=/usr/bin/notmuch new

In this case I'm using `systemd` override functionality - you might be
able to use it for compacting your `notmuch` database using `systemd`
as well.

Regards,
Chris
