It is not just bigger and brighter; it simply makes everything else vanish. -- Neil Stephenson, /In the Beginning was the Command Line/ (1998) #+end_quote *Hello!* This is a literate configuration for [[https:github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs][Doom Emacs]]. ** Background; or, My Emacs Story Given that you are currently reading an Emacs config, I will assume that you already have a moderate understanding of what Emacs is and the ideas behind its configuration system. If you do not, then [[https://docs.doomemacs.org/v21.12/#/users/intro/why-emacs][this section]] of the official Doom Emacs documentation makes for a decent introduction. Rather than use this space to explain Emacs, I will instead use it to chronicle my history with Emacs, how I got here, and what lessons should be taken away from this experience. Don't worry, I promise it won't be long. *** In The Beginning My first brush with Emacs was in around 2019, when I installed it for use with the proof assistant language Agda. I had vaguely heard tales about its beauty and power, but I was nowhere near comfortable enough with config files and programming in general to fully appreciate its capabilities (not to mention that I was using Windows at the time). I bounced off of it pretty quickly because... well, vanilla Emacs is just kinda terrible. #+caption: Look at this and tell me that it doesn't look at least a little awful. #+name: vanilla-emacs [[file:assets/vanilla_emacs.png]] A few years later in 2022, after I had moved to the more sensible OS of Arch Linux, I discovered that my preferred text editor [[https://atom-editor.cc/][Atom]] was in the process of being discontinued and began to look for a replacement. I tried Visual Studio Code for a little while, but after some serious use I became dissatisfied with how few options there were to customize it to fit my workflow. It was at this point that I started thinking about Emacs again. By chance, I happened to stumble upon Doom Emacs, and it turned out to be exactly what I was looking for: - Extreme flexibility - Robust modular configuration system - Sensible defaults - Extensive ecosystem As I became more comfortable with configuration via scripting, I immersed myself into the many utilities that make up the Emacs ecosystem: =org-mode=, =calfw=, =calc=, =mu4e=. I started putting more and more time into tweaking these applications to fit my needs, my files kept getting longer and longer, and eventually I fully fell off the deep end and now we're here. *** Literate Programming My first Doom Emacs config was hacked together directly from the generated example config: no comments, no organization, nothing. ~after!~ and ~use-package!~ blocks were scattered about the file without rhyme or reason, making it very difficult to remember what any particular line of code was actually doing. I was able to mitigate some of this issue by categorizing my config into multiple files, but at the end of the day it was a losing battle. The config directory was at around 1200 lines of code before I decided that something needed to be done. I was considering what to do about this problem of organizational decay when I came across [[https://tecosaur.github.io/emacs-config/config.html][Tecosaur's config]] and learned about =org-mode='s literate programming support. I had been using =org-mode= for several months at this point and was very comfortable with it, so utilizing it to better organize my Emacs code seemed like a good idea. **** Org and Source Code This file is written in Org, a plain-text markup language similar to Markdown in basic structure. Like Markdown, it has support for embedding blocks of source code in between paragraphs. Unlike a standard markup language, however, Org mode has built-in capabilities for executing code and inserting the output into the document, somewhat similar to a Jupyter notebook. #+begin_src emacs-lisp :eval yes :exports both :results replace ;; This is Emacs Lisp code in a src block! (format "Result: %s" (+ 1 2)) #+end_src #+RESULTS: : Result: 3 The second block above was automatically generated by =org-mode=. (This feature does not exclusively work with Emacs Lisp, but other languages require a compiler or interpreter to be installed.) **** Tangle, Weave, Export, Publish Since Org's ability to execute and code process its output is so robust, it's only natural that one might consider using Org to annotate existing code. This could be done by maintaining both the Org document and an actual source file separately, but that would require duplicating edits in both files, which is not ideal. The solution is [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming][literate programming]], the practice of embedding an active codebase into a document. Literate programming can be done in a few different ways; some languages support directly processing literate programs, including Julia and Agda. However, the way Org implements it is closer to the traditional method, which involves two processing systems: 1. /Tangling/, converting the file into source code that can be executed. Tangling must be performed before the code is used, and in Org is typically done into a separate generated file. 2. /Weaving/, formatting the file into a human-readable document. Org conceptually divides this further into "exporting" and "publishing," where the latter is intended specifically for converting into web-ready HTML. You are currently reading the published version of this literate program[fn:1]. If you were to download this repository and use it as your config, Emacs would be running the tangled version. These versions are generated in separate processes, but both of them require running code, since as demonstrated above, the exported documentation can contain program execution results. [fn:1] Unless you're reading the raw file on Github, in which case you are probably already decently familiar with =org-mode= to be able to read its markup. **** From Code into Comprehension The simultaneous handling of documentation and code inherent to literate programming is reminiscent of documentation generation (doc comments) in traditional programming. Both systems involve superimposing code and documentation into one file, but the literate style takes the concept one step further; the document isn't embedded in the code, the code is embedded in the document. Instead of documentation having to be bent around the restrictions of source code, the source code can be written and organized with all the freedoms of prose. If written well, the literate program can be structured in a manner closer to how the human mind understands code, rather than how a computer processes it. This is assisted by features such as literate macros and tangling configuration, features intended to break one's code out of the restrictions of standard programming. It's not the right tool for every codebase, but proper use of literate programming can make a program much, much easier to comprehend and maintain. This is especially true for configuration languages like Emacs Lisp, where much of the code is conceptually disconnected and can easily be split into categories. ** Current Issues *** Mail My mail client currently requires GPG access to sync emails, which doesn't properly work. Using the mail client requires running ~mbsync -a~ externally instead. * =confpkg= As part of their literate config, Tecosaur implemented =confpkg=, an embedded Emacs Lisp library that manages multiple aspects of config tangling: - Controlling what generated files each code block is tangled to - Creating package files from templates - Automatically detecting cross-section dependencies - Reporting profiling information on config load times It's an incredibly impressive utility, and I highly recommend reading [[https://tecosaur.github.io/emacs-config/config.html#rudimentary-configuration-confpkg][the section in their config]] on its design. I tried to read through it myself, but I don't understand half of it; it's a bizarre mixture of exploits to hook into =org-mode='s tangling process, self-modifying buffer shenanigans, and abuse of various features of the source block mechanism. Luckily, I don't need to be able to understand code in order to do what I do best: press =Ctrl+C= and =Ctrl+V= in that order. Programming! If you're reading the raw org file instead of the published version, the code for =confpkg= is below. It is mostly unchanged, aside from these tweaks: - Change the package template to contain my information - Reorganize to get rid of superfluous noweb references - Prevent the code from being exported - Allow package statements anywhere in subconfig files, rather than only at the beginning ** confpkg :noexport: *** Preparation #+name: confpkg-prepare #+begin_src emacs-lisp (condition-case nil (progn (message "Intitialising confpkg") (org-fold-core-ignore-fragility-checks (org-babel-map-executables nil (when (eq (org-element-type (org-element-context)) 'babel-call) (org-babel-lob-execute-maybe))))) (quit (revert-buffer t t t))) #+end_src #+header: :tangle (expand-file-name (make-temp-name "emacs-org-babel-excuses/confpkg-prepare-") temporary-file-directory) #+begin_src emacs-lisp :noweb no-export <> #+end_src *** Setup #+name: confpkg-setup #+begin_src emacs-lisp :results silent :noweb no-export (setq confpkg--num 0 confpkg--list nil) ;; Dependency handling (defun confpkg--rough-extract-definitions (file) (with-temp-buffer (insert-file-contents file) (goto-char (point-min)) (let (symbols) (while (re-search-forward (rx line-start (* (any ?\s ?\t)) "(" (or "defun" "defmacro" "defsubst" "defgeneric" "defalias" "defvar" "defcustom" "defface" "deftheme" "cl-defun" "cl-defmacro" "cl-defsubst" "cl-defmethod" "cl-defstruct" "cl-defgeneric" "cl-deftype") (+ (any ?\s ?\t)) (group (+ (any "A-Z" "a-z" "0-9" ?+ ?- ?* ?/ ?_ ?~ ?! ?@ ?$ ?% ?^ ?& ?= ?: ?< ?> ?{ ?}))) (or blank ?\n)) nil t) (push (match-string 1) symbols)) symbols))) (defun confpkg--rough-uses-p (file symbols) (with-temp-buffer (insert-file-contents file) (let ((symbols (copy-sequence symbols)) uses-p) (while symbols (goto-char (point-min)) (if (re-search-forward (rx word-start (literal (car symbols)) word-end) nil t) (setq uses-p t symbols nil) (setq symbols (cdr symbols)))) uses-p))) (defun confpkg-annotate-list-dependencies () (dolist (confpkg confpkg--list) (plist-put confpkg :defines (confpkg--rough-extract-definitions (plist-get confpkg :file)))) (dolist (confpkg confpkg--list) (let ((after (plist-get confpkg :after)) requires) (dolist (other-confpkg confpkg--list) (when (and (not (eq other-confpkg confpkg)) (confpkg--rough-uses-p (plist-get confpkg :file) (plist-get other-confpkg :defines))) (push (plist-get other-confpkg :package) requires))) (when (and after (symbolp after)) (push after requires)) (plist-put confpkg :requires requires)))) (defun confpkg-write-dependencies () (dolist (confpkg confpkg--list) (when (plist-get confpkg :requires) (with-temp-buffer (setq buffer-file-name (plist-get confpkg :file)) (insert-file-contents buffer-file-name) (re-search-forward "^;;; Code:\n") (insert "\n") (dolist (req (plist-get confpkg :requires)) (insert (format "(require '%s)\n" req))) (write-region nil nil buffer-file-name) (set-buffer-modified-p nil))))) ;; Commenting package statements (defun confpkg-comment-out-package-statements () (dolist (confpkg confpkg--list) (with-temp-buffer (setq buffer-file-name (plist-get confpkg :file)) (insert-file-contents buffer-file-name) (goto-char (point-min)) (re-search-forward "^;;; Code:\n") (let (prepared) (while (re-search-forward "(\\(package!\\|unpin!\\)" nil t) (let* ((start (copy-marker (match-beginning 0))) (end (progn (goto-char start) (forward-sexp 1) (if (looking-at "[\t ]*;.*") (line-end-position) (point)))) (contents (buffer-substring start end)) paste-start paste-end (comment-start ";") (comment-padding " ") (comment-end "")) (plist-put confpkg :package-statements (nconc (plist-get confpkg :package-statements) (list contents))) (delete-region start (1+ end)) (re-search-backward "^;;; Code:") (beginning-of-line) (unless prepared (insert ";; Package statement:\n") (setq prepared t)) (setq paste-start (point)) (insert contents) (setq paste-end (point)) (comment-region paste-start paste-end 2) (goto-char start))) (when prepared (re-search-backward "^;;; Code:") (insert ";;\n"))) (when (buffer-modified-p) (write-region nil nil buffer-file-name) (set-buffer-modified-p nil))))) (defun confpkg-create-config () (let ((revert-without-query '("config\\.el")) (keywords (org-collect-keywords '("AUTHOR" "EMAIL"))) (original-buffer (current-buffer))) (with-temp-buffer (insert (format ";;; config.el -*- lexical-binding: t; -*- ;; SPDX-FileCopyrightText: © 2023-%s %s <%s> ;; SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT ;; Generated at %s from the literate configuration.

On a Nix-based system, there are a few different ways to handle this: 1. Put that tool in the actual environment, e.g. in a profile. This makes sense for simple things (=ripgrep=, =sqlite=, etc) but for more opinionated things like an instance of Python it becomes less desirable. 2. Build the tool and put a symlink to the output somewhere, e.g. in the HOME directory. This avoids polluting the environment, but you still have to deal with an unwieldy symlink that breaks Emacs if you accidentally delete it. This was my approach before coming up with the third option: 3. Build the tool and point Emacs directly to the store path. This is the simplest solution, but requires the most complex Emacs configuration. This section is an implementation of that third solution. We first need a function to build a flake reference: #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun nix-build-out-path (out &optional impure) "Build the given flake output OUT and return the output path. Return nil if the build fails. If IMPURE is t, then allow impure builds." (require 'nix) (require 's) (with-temp-message (format "Building \"%s\" ..." out) (with-temp-buffer (let* ((args `("build" "--no-link" "--print-out-paths" ,@(if impure "--impure") ,out)) (status (apply #'call-process nix-executable nil (list (current-buffer) nil) nil args))) (when (eql status 0) (s-trim (buffer-string))))))) #+end_src This works well enough if we just want to build something, but there's a problem: we haven't indicated to Nix that we want this output to stick around, so it will be deleted the next time we garbage collect. To fix this, we can write a wrapper function that also makes the output path a garbage collection root. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun nix-build-out-path-gcroot (name out &optional impure) "Build the given flake output OUT, register its output path as a garbage collection root under NAME, and return the output path. Return nil if the build fails. The GC root is placed under \"/nix/var/nix/gcroots/emacs/NAME\". If a call to this function reuses the same NAME argument, then the symlink is overwritten. If IMPURE is t, then allow impure builds."

If we want something that looks visually appealing, we're going to need a serious overhaul. *** Splash Banner The Doom dashboard allows the use of an image for its banner, which supports any image type Emacs can display, including SVG. I have procured an SVG image to use for my dashboard, the classic Emacs E: #+attr_html: :width 150px [[file:assets/splash.svg]] The obvious choice for the fill color of the image would have been purple, the standard highlight color of my theme, but I wanted the banner to pop out a bit more. The image can be set like thus: #+begin_src emacs-lisp (setq fancy-splash-image (expand-file-name "assets/splash.svg" doom-private-dir)) #+end_src *** Title Since our banner no longer includes a title, we should add one after the splash image.

We only do this on graphical displays, as non-graphical ones fall back on the default ASCII banner, which includes a title. *** Other Tweaks We'll put our title widget into the ~+doom-dashboard-functions~ hook, and while we're at it we'll also get rid of the footer widget, which I don't see much use for. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (setq +doom-dashboard-functions '(doom-dashboard-widget-banner doom-dashboard-widget-title doom-dashboard-widget-shortmenu doom-dashboard-widget-loaded)) #+end_src We should also declutter some other aspects of the dashboard.

The ~org-cycle~ command will still be triggered on =TAB= when in normal mode, as it is bound in ~evil-org-mode-map~, but when in insert mode (as one generally is during snippet expansion) the binding will fall through both maps and be handled by YASnippet. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (map! :after org :map org-mode-map "TAB" nil "" nil) #+end_src This also means we don't need ~org-cycle~ to emulate indentation, which is nice. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (after! org (setf (nth 4 org-emphasis-regexp-components) 20)) #+end_src *** Project Links It's sometimes nice to be able to click a link in an Org file that takes me to one of my projects. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun org-projectile-follow (path _) "Open a projectile link to PATH."

This ... sort of makes sense? I guess? It doesn't really, because filename conventions don't make for good category names. This is especially bad for Org-roam, where filenames are automatically generated and can be very large and hard to read. To fix this issue, it is thankfully rather simple to patch Org-mode's category system[fn:2]. The following code sets things up so that the file's =#+title= metadata is used as the default category, falling back on the default behavior if a title is not given. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defadvice! ~/org-default-category (old-fn) "Modify how Org resolves the default category through the `org-category' variable." :around '(org-refresh-category-properties org-element--get-category) (let ((org-category (or org-category (org-get-title)))) (funcall old-fn))) #+end_src [fn:2] Where by "simple" I mean that it took me multiple hours of combing through Org's source code in order to find the multiple places(???) where this behavior was implemented and to figure out how to modify it.

This worked, but as my notes grew more and more I've begun to increasingly rely on [[https://www.orgroam.com/][Org-roam]] to more systematically manage my organization. *** Concept Org-roam is inspired by Roam Research, and like that tool it is based on the Zettelkasten (slip-box) note-taking method. In the Zettelkasten method, notes and concepts are separated into small chunks (called "nodes" in Org-roam terminology). These notes can live freely in any file on your system, and are linked to each other through ID links, leading to a freer note system that isn't tied to any particular organizational structure or hierarchy. *** Task Management In my use of Org-roam for task management, I divide nodes into a few different categories: 1. *Areas*, which represent continual areas of your life to organize and plan; 2. *Goals*, short- or long-term, things that can be completed; 3. *Tasks*, which are one-time and contribute to goals or areas. Areas are stored as subnodes of the =Areas= file node, and likewise for goals. They also have the =:area:= and =:goal:= tags respectively. A task is a node that is a TODO entry that links to an area or a goal. We can thus check for if a node is a task by checking if the node links to a =:area:= or =:goal:= tagged node. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun ~/org-roam-get-linked-nodes (node tag) "Return the nodes that NODE links to that are tagged with TAG."

The default method for configuring capture is the variable ~org-capture-templates~, which specifies templates to generate new entries with. *** YASnippet Integration These templates are all well and good, but there's a crucial issue with them: we already have a perfectly good template system! [[*Snippets][Snippets]] are highly versatile and useful, and it would be nice if we could leverage their features in Org capture templates. The goal is to hook into Org's capturing system to get it to feed its template into YASnippet, instead of printing it directly. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defadvice! org-capture-yasnippet (old-fn &optional arg) "Modify Org's capture system to expand a YASnippet template." :around #'org-capture-place-template (let* ((template (org-capture-get :template)) (org-capture-plist (plist-put org-capture-plist :template ""))) (cl-letf (((symbol-function 'org-kill-is-subtree-p) #'always)) (funcall old-fn arg) (yas-expand-snippet (concat (pcase (org-capture-get :type) ('entry "`(make-string (org-outline-level) ?*)`")) template))))) #+end_src This advice overrides ~org-capture-place-template~, the function that: 1. Moves to the location of capture inside the file 2. Modifies the template to fit its context 3. Places the template in the file The advice temporarily sets Org's capture template to an empty string, lets Org do its thing, and then expands the template itself. This does mean that Org no longer performs point 2, but YASnippet is powerful enough that we can simply do that ourselves by modifying the template. *** Roam Capture Since Org-roam is currently my primary method of using Org, I only use its templating system. We'll start with defining some useful node accessor functions. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun org-roam-node-file-maybe (node &optional dir) "Get file name from NODE, or return a default filename in directory DIR."

However, when I'm explicitly telling Roam to make a new node, it would be a shame if there was only one option.
