:ui doom-modeline

This module customizes the Emacs mode-line.

The DOOM modeline was designed for minimalism, and offers:

• A match count panel (for evil-search, iedit and evil-substitute)
• An indicator for recording a macro
• Local python/ruby version in the major-mode
• A customizable mode-line height (see +doom-modeline-height)
• An error/warning count segment for flycheck

Install

This module requires the fonts included with all-the-icons to be installed.

Run M-x all-the-icons-install-fonts to do so.

Extracting my modeline

Some might want my modeline without the DOOM config altogether. I've tried to make this easier for you, but there are a few things you'll need to do:

• Ensure projectile and all-the-icons are installed.
• Ensure projectile-mode is enabled.
• Ensure the fonts included with all-the-icons are installed (M-x all-the-icons-install-fonts).
• Replace def-package! calls with use-package.
• Replace doom-project-root calls with projectile-project-root.
• Change the one def-memoized! function to defun.
• The +doom-modeline--make-xpm function is memoized with the def-memoized! macro. Change def-memoized! to defun.
• Copy the add-hook! macro definition from core/core-lib.el.

• Copy the following macros and functions from core/core-ui.el:

  • def-modeline-segment!
  • def-modeline!
  • doom--prepare-modeline-segments
  • doom-modeline
  • doom-set-modeline

That should be everything. As I have never used this out of my config I can't guarantee immediate success, but I'd be happy to help you out. File an issue.

Troubleshooting

Where are my minor-modes?

I didn't need it, so I removed it. I wrote doom/what-minor-mode in the rare case I needed to investigate the currently active minor modes however.
