The doom-modules table should reflect the user's intentions, not the
actual state of its modules (e.g. by omitting modules that couldn't be
found at activation time).
BREAKING CHANGE: This commit makes three breaking changes:
- Doom now fully and dynamically generates (and byte-compiles) your
profile and its init files, which includes your autoloads, loading
your init files and modules, and then some. This replaces
doom-initialize-modules, doom-initialize-core-modules, and
doom-module-loader, which have been removed. This has also improved
startup time by a bit, but if you use these functions in your CLIs,
for instance, this will be a breaking change.
- `doom sync` is now required for Doom to see your profiles (and must be
run whenever you change them, or when you up/downgrade Emacs across
major versions).
- $DOOMDIR/init.el is now read much earlier than it used to be. Before
any of doom-{ui,keybinds,editor,projects}, before any autoloads are
loaded, and before your load-path has been populated with your
packages. It now runs in the context of early-init.el, giving users
freer range over what they can affect, but a more minimalistic
environment to do it in.
If you must have some logic run when all that is set up, add it to one
of the module hooks added in e08f68b or 283308a.
This also poses a significant change to Doom's load order (see the
commentary change in lib/doom.el), along with the following (non
breaking) changes:
1. Adds a new `doom profiles sync` command. This will forcibly resync
your profiles, while `doom sync` will only do so if your profiles
have changed.
2. Doom now fully and dynamically generates (and byte-compiles) your
user-init-file, which includes loading all your init files, modules,
and custom-file. This replaces the job of doom-initialize-modules,
doom-initialize-core-modules, and doom-module-loader, which have been
removed. This has also improved startup time by a bit.
3. Defines new doom-state-dir variable, though not used yet (saving that
and the other breaking changes for the 3.0 release).
4. Redesigns profile directory variables (doom-profile-*-dir) to prepare
for future XDG-compliance.
5. Removed unused/unimportant profile variables in doom.el.
6. Added lisp/doom-profiles.el. It's hardly feature complete, but it's
enough to power the system as it is now.
7. Updates the "load order" commentary in doom.el to reflect these
changes.
BREAKING CHANGE: For consistency and correctness, I've renamed the
module init/config hooks, and added new ones:
- Adds doom-before-modules-config-hook
- Adds doom-after-modules-config-hook (replaced doom-before-init-modules-hook)
- Adds doom-before-modules-init-hook
- Adds doom-after-modules-init-hook (replaced doom-init-modules-hook)
- Removed doom-after-init-modules-hook (replaced w/ after-init-hook)
The old naming (and timing) was counterintuitive. Now, it's named after
the loaded file group (init.el vs config.el), and I added before/after
variants. Altogether, this should make them less ambiguous.
I've also moved some functions in various modules to more correct hooks.
Load order before this change:
- $EMACSDIR/early-init.el
- $EMACSDIR/lisp/doom.el
- $EMACSDIR/lisp/doom-start.el
- $DOOMDIR/init.el
- {$DOOMDIR,~/.emacs.d}/modules/*/*/init.el
- `doom-before-init-modules-hook'
- {$DOOMDIR,~/.emacs.d}/modules/*/*/config.el
- `doom-init-modules-hook'
- $DOOMDIR/config.el
- `doom-after-init-modules-hook'
- `after-init-hook'
- `emacs-startup-hook'
- `window-setup-hook'
Load order after this change:
- $EMACSDIR/early-init.el
- $EMACSDIR/lisp/doom.el
- $EMACSDIR/lisp/doom-start.el
- $DOOMDIR/init.el
- `doom-before-modules-init-hook'
- {$DOOMDIR,~/.emacs.d}/modules/*/*/init.el
- `doom-after-modules-init-hook'
- `doom-before-modules-config-hook'
- {$DOOMDIR,~/.emacs.d}/modules/*/*/config.el
- `doom-after-modules-config-hook'
- $DOOMDIR/config.el
- `after-init-hook'
- `emacs-startup-hook'
- `window-setup-hook'
...that are always enabled. This way, the module API treats them as any
other module.
This also changes doom-module-load-path. If supplied directories,
doom-user-dir will not be the CAR of its return value. If no dirs are
supplied, then doom-core-dir and doom-user-dir are included (and will
always be the first two items in the returned list).
For small amounts of data, symbol plists are the most efficient (space
and time wise) as data access gets in Emacs. Hash tables, though O(1),
impose a minimum threshold of overhead before it becomes the efficient
option, but this benefit won't be obvious for datasets of at least 60 or
less.
Since modulep! is used *a lot*, and used to determine a module's
state (and state of its flags), there is a benefit to caching it.
Still, this is only a read-only cache, and does not replace the
`doom-modules` hash-table, which will always be the preferred interface
for the rest of the module API.
Used to return the hash-table `doom-modules` (if not all-p), but I've
changed it to return a list of cons cells (:CATEGORY . MODULE),
representing all enabled modules, in the order they were enabled.
The purpose of this change is to prepare for a change in the structure
of doom-modules, and how Doom stores its module metadata.
- Rename doom-module-path -> doom-module-expand-path, to better reflect
its purpose.
- Optimize doom-module-locate-path to try caches and
locate-file-internal, before looping through doom-modules-dirs.
- Rely on file-name-concat to join paths, rather than string
concatenation. file-name-concat is more robust for the purpose and
has lower overhead than expand-file-name.
This was removed upstream, and while we haven't bumped use-package for
this to affect us, I may as well remove it early.
Doom will be dropping use-package from core in 3.0, in any case.
Fix: #6699
Ref: 8a3d29e433
- Deprecates the doom-private-dir variable in favor of doom-user-dir.
- Renames the pseudo category for the user's module: :private -> :user.
- Renames the doom-private-error error type to doom-user-error.
Emacs uses the term "user" to refer to the "things" in user space (e.g.
user-init-file, user-emacs-directory, user-mail-address, xdg-user-dirs,
package-user-dir, etc), and I'd like to be consistent with that. It also
has the nice side-effect of being slightly shorter. I also hope
'doom-user-error' will be less obtuse to beginners than
'doom-private-error'.
featurep! will be renamed modulep! in the future, so it's been
deprecated. They have identical interfaces, and can be replaced without
issue.
featurep! was never quite the right name for this macro. It implied that
it had some connection to featurep, which it doesn't (only that it was
similar in purpose; still, Doom modules are not features). To undo such
implications and be consistent with its namespace (and since we're
heading into a storm of breaking changes with the v3 release anyway),
now was the best opportunity to begin the transition.
BREAKING CHANGE: This restructures the project in preparation for Doom
to be split into two repos. Users that have reconfigured Doom's CLI
stand a good chance of seeing breakage, especially if they've referred
to any core-* feature, e.g.
(after! core-cli-ci ...)
To fix it, simply s/core-/doom-/, i.e.
(after! doom-cli-ci ...)
What this commit specifically changes is:
- Renames all core features from core-* to doom-*
- Moves core/core-* -> lisp/doom-*
- Moves core/autoloads/* -> lisp/lib/*
- Moves core/templates -> templates/
