load!'s first argument is no longer a symbol (that will cause
void-variable errors now) to save on unnecessary interning and simplify
compile-time logic. It accepts any valid form that evaluates to a string
now.
If you use load!, you need to change its argument to a string!
e.g. (load! +my-module) => (load! "+my-module")
The autoloads file has been split into doom-autoload-file and
doom-package-autoload-file. The former is for Doom's modules and
standard library; the latter is for compiling all package autoloads like
load-path and auto-mode-alist (among other things).
This reduced my startup speed from ~1s to ~0.5s
This commit adds bin/doom, which acts as the middle man that make once
was (and will stay for a while, though the documentation will shift away
from using it). It does everything the previous make interface did, but
is faster and more flexible. bin/doom should eventually replace the
makefile.
bin/doom also makes it easier to run Doom outside of ~/.emacs.d and
~/.doom.d with, for example:
bin/doom run -p ~/.other.doom.d/ -e ~/.other.emacs.d
bin/doom.cmd is included for Windows users, but I don't recommend using
it yet. It hasn't been tested nor have I ever written a batch script
before.
Also update init.example.el with new defaults.
The would prioritize load-file-name over byte-compile-current-file
during byte-compiling, which would result featurep! being unable to
resolve the current module and load! from figuring out where "here" was
to build its relative paths from.
+ Consolidate the CATEGORY -> MODULE terminology
+ Rename functions to make their function easier to understand
+ Rename doom-module-expand-file => doom-module-path
+ Rename doom-module-find-path => doom-module-locate-path
These two files shouldn't be byte-compiled. Until now it was expected
that you'd include a no-byte-compile: t header in these files. This is
more convenient.
Make autoloads will expand the include paths of Doom autoload cookies.
This fixes an issue where paths were expanded to include a file
extension, bypassing the benefits of byte-compilation.
This convenience macro lets you specify multiple packages with one
block, e.g.
(packages! rtags ivy-rtags glsl-mode)
Each entry can be a full recipe.
(packages! (rtags :disable t) (glsl-mode :recipe (...)))
This allows users to disable one master package, thus disabling all its
children. e.g. Disable irony, then irony-eldoc, flycheck-irony,
company-irony and company-irony-c-headers will be disabled too.
This offloads some of the work Doom has to do creating
`doom-packages-file` onto `make autoloads`. This closely mimics the
package-quickstart-refresh functionality in Emacs 27+, but is more
specialized.
This means package autoloads are now loaded on every startup.
Many :mode, :interpreter, and :commands declarations in def-package!
blocks are made redundant by this and will be cleaned up soon.
:defer now supports a hook, a cons cell with (SYMBOL . INTEGER) where
SYMBOL is a hook and INTEGER is a number of idle seconds before the
package is autoloaded, or just the integer (as per the default behavior
of :defer).
Also fixes an issue where switch-buffer-deffered packages (like
smartparens) wouldn't load.
