- Eager-load all core autoloaded libraries if autoloads file isn't
present.
- Renames functions to be more descriptive of their true purpose:
- doom-initialize-autoloads -> doom-load-autoloads-file
- doom-load-env-vars -> doom-load-envvars-file
- Use doom-module-p instead of featurep! for backend use (the latter is
mainly syntax sugar for module use, and evaluates at compile/expansion
time, which may cause hash-table-p errors early in the startup
process).
- Reorder plist library to prevent load order race condition with the
functions using the macros that haven't been defined yet.
There are a few kinks to iron out, but for the most part it's done. Doom
Emacs, powered by straight. Goodbye gnutls and elpa/quelpa issues.
This update doesn't come with rollback or lockfile support yet, but I
will eventually include one with Doom, and packages will be (by default,
anyway) updated in sync with Doom.
Relevant threads: #1577#1566#1473
- Adds the auto-minor-mode package to replace our in-house
implementation.
- Merges associate! into the def-project-mode! macro because associate!
on its own is less useful than auto-minor-mode-alist,
auto-minor-mode-magic-alist or hooks.
- Changes the semantics of :modes and :add-hooks properties of
def-project-mode!. Its arguments are evaluated as is; lists will need
to be quoted.
squash! core-lib: remove associate! macro
- Remove core-os and move many of its settings out to other core
libraries, where they belong
- Significantly improve commenting & compartmentalization of many
settings
- Correct some mis-named public hooks (that were named as if they were
private)
- Move the vast majority of optimizations to "Optimizations" section in
core.el
- Don't activate xclip-mode or osx-clipboard-mode if we're accessing
Emacs through an SSH connection (does more bad than good there)
- Add fast-but-imprecise-scrolling = t
- Set bidi-display-reordering = 'left-to-right, at the recommendation of
an Emacs dev. Apparently setting it to nil is undefined, as Emacs is
designed to always assume it's set; setting it explicitly to
left-to-right will still do what was originally intended by turning it
off: to reduce line/text scans for bidirectional text, which gives us
a moderate boost in general runtime snappiness
- Set inhibit-compacting-fon-caches = t on windows (where it struggles
especially with icon fonts)
- Disables "literal" mode for very large files (because I will be
backporting so-long.el from Emacs 27 in the next commit)
The two doom-gc-* variables in init.el couples the rest of the config to
these two files. The bulk of GC/file-handler optimization was moved into
core.el and simplified (all that idle-timer voodoo was overkill).
Also adds (setq frame-inhibit-implied-reize t) to early-init, which
speeds up startup a fair bit in some edge cases with larger fonts.
squash! Simplify and decouple init files
This is second of three big naming convention changes. In this commit,
we change the naming conventions for hook functions and variable
functions:
1. Replace the bar | to indicate a hook function with a -h suffix, e.g.
doom|init-ui -> doom-init-ui-h
doom|run-local-var-hooks -> doom-run-local-var-hooks-h
2. And add a -fn suffix for functions meant to be set on variables,
e.g.
(setq magit-display-buffer-function #'+magit-display-buffer-fn)
See ccf327f8 for the reasoning behind these changes.
This is first of three big naming convention updates that have been a
long time coming. With 2.1 on the horizon, all the breaking updates will
batched together in preparation for the long haul.
In this commit, we do away with the asterix to communicate that a
function is an advice function, and we replace it with the '-a' suffix.
e.g.
doom*shut-up -> doom-shut-up-a
doom*recenter -> doom-recenter-a
+evil*static-reindent -> +evil--static-reindent-a
The rationale behind this change is:
1. Elisp's own formatting/indenting tools would occasionally struggle
with | and * (particularly pp and cl-prettyprint). They have no
problem with / and :, fortunately.
2. External syntax highlighters (like pygmentize, discord markdown or
github markdown) struggle with it, sometimes refusing to highlight
code beyond these symbols.
3. * and | are less expressive than - and -- in communicating the
intended visibility, versatility and stability of a function.
4. It complicated the regexps we must use to search for them.
5. They were arbitrary and over-complicated to begin with, decided
on haphazardly way back when Doom was simply "my private config".
Anyhow, like how predicate functions have the -p suffix, we'll adopt the
-a suffix for advice functions, -h for hook functions and -fn for
variable functions.
Other noteable changes:
- Replaces advice-{add,remove}! macro with new def-advice!
macro. The old pair weren't as useful. The new def-advice! saves on a
lot of space.
- Removed "stage" assertions to make sure you were using the right
macros in the right place. Turned out to not be necessary, we'll
employ better checks later.
- Move subr-x/cl-lib loading to core-lib
- Revise docstrings for and rename various CLI functions to be more
descriptive and up-to-date
- After regenerating autoloads file, bin/doom will try to reload
autoloads files remotely, through the server/daemon, if possible. This
is highly experimental and could break
I've replaced load-env-var with our own custom parser. load-env-var
expects a well-formatted env file, which neither env nor set produces,
which is what doom env uses to dump the shell environment.
This should fix issues that arise when envvars (like PATH) contain
arbitrary whitespace.
- Limits process-environment during scraping
- Add `doom-env-executable` and `doom-env-switches` variables
- Announce what commands were run to produce your env var within env var
file header
IMPORTANT: This is a breaking update for Mac users, as your shell
environment will no longer be inherited correctly (with the removal of
exec-path-from-shell). The quick fix is: 'bin/doom env refresh'. Also,
the set-env! autodef now does nothing (and is deprecated), be sure to
remove calls to it in your config.
Smaller changes:
+ This update also adds --no-* switches to doom quickstart
+ Includes general improvements to the documentation of several bin/doom
commands.
+ Moves doom/reload* commands to core/autoload/config.el
+ doom/reload-project has been removed (it didn't actually do anything)
The breaking change:
This update adds an "envvar file" to Doom Emacs. This file is generated
by `doom env refresh`, populated with variables scraped from your shell
environment (from both non-interactive and interactive sessions). This
file is then (inexpensively) loaded at startup, if it exists.
+ The file is manually generated with `doom env refresh`.
+ It can be regenerated automatically whenever `doom refresh` is run by
running `doom env enable` (`doom env clear` will reverse this and
delete the env file).
+ `doom quickstart` will ask if you want to auto-generate this envvar
file. You won't need it if you're confident Emacs will always be
started from the correct environment, however.
+ Your env file can be reloaded from a running Emacs session with `M-x
doom/reload-env`. Note: this won't work if the Emacs session you're
running it in doesn't have a correct SHELL set. i.e. don't use this to
create your first env file!
The idea isn't mine -- it's borrowed from Spacemacs -- and was
introduced to me in #1053 by @yurimx. I was impressed with it. Prior to
this, I was unhappy with exec-path-from-shell (no hate to the dev, I
understand its necessity), and 'doom patch-macos' wasn't ideal for mac
users (needed to be reapplied every time you update Emacs). What's more,
many users (even Linux users) had to install exec-path-from-shell
anyway.
This solution suffers from none of their shortcomings. More reliable
than patch-macos, more performant and complete than
exec-path-from-shell, and easily handled by bin/doom.
Also adds doom-after-init-modules-hook for consistency, which is an
alias to after-init-hook until I decide if it's necessary for it to be
independent.
- doom-post-init-hook was renamed doom-init-modules-hook
- doom-init-hook was renamed doom-before-init-modules-hook
- doom-init-modules-hook now runs before the user's config.el is run
- Moved doom-init-ui-hook to run later (on window-setup-hook rather than
emacs-startup-hook).
Yield a modest improvement in startup times.
