The rewrite for Doom's CLI is taking a while, so I've backported a few
important changes in order to ease the transition and fix a couple bugs
sooner.
Fixes#2802, #2737, #2386
The big highlights are:
- Fix#2802: We now update recipe repos *before* updating/installing any
new packages. No more "Could not find package X in recipe repositories".
- Fix#2737: An edge case where straight couldn't reach a pinned
commit (particularly with agda).
- Doom is now smarter about what option it recommends when straight
prompts you to make a choice.
- Introduces a new init path for Doom. The old way:
- Launch in "minimal" CLI mode in non-interactive sessions
- Launch a "full" interactive mode otherwise.
The new way
- Launch in "minimal" CLI mode *only* for bin/doom
- Launch is a simple mode for non-interactive sessions that still need
access to your interactive config (like async org export/babel).
- Launch a "full" interactive mode otherwise.
This should fix compatibility issues with plugins that use the
async.el library or spawn child Emacs processes to fake
parallelization (like org's async export and babel functionality).
- Your private init.el is now loaded more reliably when running any
bin/doom command. This gives you an opportunity to configure its
settings.
- Added doom-first-{input,buffer,file}-hook hooks, which we use to queue
deferred activation of a number of packages. Users can remove these
modes from these hooks; altogether preventing them from loading,
rather than waiting for them to load to then disable them,
e.g. (after! smartparens (smartparens-global-mode -1)) -> (remove-hook
'doom-first-buffer #'smartparens-global-mode)
Hooks added to doom-first-*-hook variables will be removed once they
run.
This should also indirectly fix#2386, by preventing interactive modes
from running in non-interactive session.
- Added `doom/bump-*` commands to make bumping modules and packages
easier, and `doom/bumpify-*` commands for converting package!
statements into user/repo@sha1hash format for bump commits.
- straight.el is now commit-pinned, like all other packages. We also
more reliably install straight.el by cloning it ourselves, rather than
relying on its bootstrap.el.
This should prevent infinite "straight has diverged from master"
prompts whenever we change branches (though, you might have to put up
with it one more after this update -- see #2937 for workaround).
All the other minor changes:
- Moved core/autoload/cli.el to core/autoload/process.el
- The package manager will log attempts to check out pinned commits
- If package state is incomplete while rebuilding packages, emit a
simpler error message instead of an obscure one!
- Added -u switch to 'doom sync' to make it run 'doom update' afterwards
- Added -p switch to 'doom sync' to make it run 'doom purge' afterwards
- Replace doom-modules function with doom-modules-list
- The `with-plist!` macro was removed, since `cl-destructuring-bind`
already serves that purpose well enough.
- core/autoload/packages.el was moved into core-packages.el
- bin/doom will no longer die if DOOMDIR or DOOMLOCALDIR don't have a
trailing slash
- Introduces doom-debug-variables; a list of variables to toggle on
doom/toggle-debug-mode.
- The sandbox has been updated to reflect the above changes, also:
1. Child instances will no longer inherit the process environment of
the host instance,
2. It will no longer produce an auto-save-list directory in ~/.emacs.d
Highlights:
- 'doom purge' now purges builds, elpa packages, and repos by default.
Regrafting repos is now opt-in with the -g/--regraft switches.
Negation flags have been added for elpa/repos: -e/--no-elpa and
-r/--no-repos.
- Removed 'doom rebuild' (it is now just 'doom build' or 'doom b').
- Removed 'doom build's -f flag, this is now the default. Added the -r
flag instead, which only builds packages that need rebuilding.
- 'doom update' now updates packages synchronously, but produces more
informative output about the updating process.
- Straight can now prompt in batch mode, which resolves a lot of issues
with 'doom update' (and 'doom upgrade') freezing indefinitely or
throwing repo branch errors.
- 'bin/doom's switches are now positional. Switches aimed at `bin/doom`
must precede any subcommands. e.g.
Do: 'doom -yd upgrade'
Don't do: 'doom upgrade -yd'
- Moved 'doom doctor' from bin/doom-doctor to core/cli/doctor, and
integrated core/doctor.el into it, as to avoid naming conflicts
between it and Emacs doctor.
- The defcli! macro now has a special syntax for declaring flags, their
arguments and descriptions.
Addresses #1981, #1925, #1816, #1721, #1322
- 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
The private module won't be byte-compiled implicitly anymore, as it can
cause unexpected problems with stale code and config portability.
doom compile -> only compiles ~/.emacs.d
doom compile :core -> ~/.emacs.d/core
doom compile :plugins -> ~/.emacs.d/.local/packages/elpa
doom compile :private -> ~/.doom.d
It's possible for the debugger to be invoked from inside code wrapped in
a (quiet! ...) call. The debugger pauses Emacs in a broken state where
the functions locally rebound by quiet! (e.g. message, load-file,
write-region, etc) are never returned to their original definitions.
This attempts to reduce that probabilityby changing how quiet! silences
code. Rather than silencing them completely, they will be logged
to *Messages* but not displayed in the echo area.
Also, quiet! is now used less, where it isn't strictly needed (or where
inhibit-message is sufficient).
