- 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
IMPORTANT: This is a breaking update for Mac users, as your shell
environment will no longer be inherited correctly (with the removal of
exec-path-from-shell). The quick fix is: 'bin/doom env refresh'. Also,
the set-env! autodef now does nothing (and is deprecated), be sure to
remove calls to it in your config.
Smaller changes:
+ This update also adds --no-* switches to doom quickstart
+ Includes general improvements to the documentation of several bin/doom
commands.
+ Moves doom/reload* commands to core/autoload/config.el
+ doom/reload-project has been removed (it didn't actually do anything)
The breaking change:
This update adds an "envvar file" to Doom Emacs. This file is generated
by `doom env refresh`, populated with variables scraped from your shell
environment (from both non-interactive and interactive sessions). This
file is then (inexpensively) loaded at startup, if it exists.
+ The file is manually generated with `doom env refresh`.
+ It can be regenerated automatically whenever `doom refresh` is run by
running `doom env enable` (`doom env clear` will reverse this and
delete the env file).
+ `doom quickstart` will ask if you want to auto-generate this envvar
file. You won't need it if you're confident Emacs will always be
started from the correct environment, however.
+ Your env file can be reloaded from a running Emacs session with `M-x
doom/reload-env`. Note: this won't work if the Emacs session you're
running it in doesn't have a correct SHELL set. i.e. don't use this to
create your first env file!
The idea isn't mine -- it's borrowed from Spacemacs -- and was
introduced to me in #1053 by @yurimx. I was impressed with it. Prior to
this, I was unhappy with exec-path-from-shell (no hate to the dev, I
understand its necessity), and 'doom patch-macos' wasn't ideal for mac
users (needed to be reapplied every time you update Emacs). What's more,
many users (even Linux users) had to install exec-path-from-shell
anyway.
This solution suffers from none of their shortcomings. More reliable
than patch-macos, more performant and complete than
exec-path-from-shell, and easily handled by bin/doom.
Done to make bin/doom produce better debugger output (and more readily).
A lot of bin/doom errors aren't recurring, so it's better to produce the
full error report ASAP.
Communicating with the Emacs server isn't reliable and has a tendency to
hang, so we no longer do that. Instead, we inform the user to reload it
themselves.
+ Removes redundant/unhelpful comments
+ Renames functions, hooks and variables to be self-documenting
+ Use add-to-list to ensure idempotency (and is more performant)
Occasionally, bin/doom commands hang when generating autoloads. It
blocks endlessly after sending a message to an active Emacs server, but
never receives a proper reply.
This commit makes it less likely that this hanging will leave Doom in a
broken state (and also informs the user it is safe to abort the
process).
