- Reduces `package!`'s side-effects and moves them to
`doom-initialize-packages`.
- Adds :pin to `package!` for commit pinning (but it hasn't been
implemented just yet -- needs more testing)!
- Adds `doom-pinned-packages` variable
- Now overrides straight recipes using `straight-override-recipe`
instead of in-house merging.
Errors like 'Could not find package emacsmirror-mirror in recipe
repositories' occur because I assumed that straight--reset-caches would
unset `straight-recipe-repositories`. I'm not sure if that was ever the
case, but it isn't now.
- No longer translates :fetcher to :host. Update your package!
declaration people!
- Now evaluates the values for properties (except for :recipe IF it is a
list whose CAR passes keywordp -- for backwards compatibility).
- Throws error if an invalid property is used for a package!'s :recipe
Fixes an issue where package! declarations were read unconditionally at
compile time, whether or not they were on a reachable code path. e.g.
evil is always disabled by:
(when nil
(package! evil :disable t))
This eliminates the possibility of straight throwing an
emacs-version-changed error, which is difficult to catch, when uses
could invoke a straight command interactively and any time. We'll do our
own version checks (later).
Straight throws an 'emacs-version-changed' error if you load it with a
version of Emacs it wasn't compiled with. This update causes this to
emit a more helpful error.
Instead of replacing the whole recipe with the contents of :recipe, only
modify the specified properties. This allows you to specify helpful
parameters like :nonrecursive or :depth without having to include the
full recipe.
Straight expects to be used interactively, which don't do (yet). Its
transactional system depends on idle timers, which don't run in a
noninteractive session, so we have to nudge it ourselves.
This commit does two things:
- Renames def-advice! to defadvice!, in the spirit of naming convenience
macros after the function/macro they enhance or replace.
- Correct the names of advice functions to indicate visibility and
intent. A public advice function like doom-set-jump-a is meant to be
used elsewhere. A private one like +dired--cleanup-header-line-a
shouldn't -- it likely won't work anywhere but the function(s) it was
made to advise.
Calling this pivotal macro "def-package!" has frequently been a source
of confusion. It is a thin wrapper around use-package, and it should be
obvious that it is so. For this reason, and to match the naming
convention used with other convenience macros/wrappers, it is now
use-package!.
Also changes def-package-hook! -> use-package-hook!
The old macros are now marked obsolete and will be removed when straight
integration is merged.
- 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
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.
This would cause ~/.doom.d/init.el to exist before `doom quickstart` can
copy ~/.emacs.d/init.example.el into it, causing some newcomers to
experience a wrong-type-argument: hash-table-p error at startup (and no
modules being enabled).
Sets out to solve a number of issues with the package management
process. Namely:
- To-be-removed packages that are simply being removed are no longer
incorrectly labeled "quelpa->elpa", but "removed" instead.
- A backend (elpa vs quelpa) column was added to the package listing
confirmation when running `doom update`.
- Doom now correctly recognizes that packages installed with a psuedonym
are installed, and will not endlessly attempt to uninstall and
reinstall them on every `doom refresh`.
- Packages declared with :built-in will no longer lose their built-in
marking if said package is not actually present in Emacs' site load
paths. i.e. if you say it's built in, Doom won't question it.
- package!'s :ignore property is now treated as a form whose evaluated
result will be used as its value.
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.
