* Introduction
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
Seems that all programming interfaces and workflows behave similarly. One other helper routine is a =general= macro for org-mode files:

** Flycheck
2022-06-16 18:17:54 +00:00
Why use [[https://www.flycheck.org/ ][flycheck ]] over the built-in =flymake= ? Speed used to be the advantage, but I’ m now pushing much of this to LSP, so speed is less of an issue. What about when I am not using LSP? Also, since I’ ve hooked grammar checkers, I need this with global keybindings.

** Documentation
2022-06-16 18:17:54 +00:00
I’ m interested in using [[https://devdocs.io/ ][devdocs ]] instead, which is similar, but keeps it all /inside/ Emacs (and works on my Linux system). Two Emacs projects compete for this position. The Emacs [[https://github.com/astoff/devdocs.el ][devdocs ]] project is active, and seems to work well. Its advantage is a special mode for moving around the documentation.
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00

The [[https://github.com/blahgeek/emacs-devdocs-browser ][devdocs-browser ]] project acts similar, but with slightly different command names. Its advantage is that it allows for downloading docs and having it available offline, in fact, you can’ t search for a function, until you download its pack. This is slightly faster because of this.

2022-05-20 03:35:30 +00:00
** Code Folding
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
While Emacs has options for viewing and moving around code, sometimes, we could /collapse/ all functions, and then start to expand them one at a time. For this, we could enable the built-in [[https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/HideShow ][hide-show feature ]]:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle no
2022-05-20 03:35:30 +00:00
(use-package hide-show
:straight (:type built-in)
:init
(setq hs-hide-comments t
hs-hide-initial-comment-block t
hs-isearch-open t)
:hook (prog-mode . hs-minor-mode))
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+end_src
Note that =hide-show= doesn’ t work with complex YAML files. The [[https://github.com/gregsexton/origami.el ][origami ]] mode works better /out-of-the-box/ , as it works with Python and Lisp, but falls back to indents as the format, which works well.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
2022-05-20 03:35:30 +00:00
(use-package origami
:init
(setq origami-fold-replacement "⤵")
:hook (prog-mode . origami-mode))
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+end_src
2022-05-20 03:35:30 +00:00
To take advantage of this, type:
- ~z m~ :: To collapse everything
- ~z r~ :: To open everything
- ~z o~ :: To open a particular section
- ~z c~ :: To collapse a /section/ (like a function)
- ~z a~ :: Toggles open to close
Note: Yes, we could use [[https://github.com/mrkkrp/vimish-fold ][vimish-fold ]] (and its cousin, [[https://github.com/alexmurray/evil-vimish-fold ][evil-vimish-fold ]]) and we’ ll see if I need those.
2023-03-18 02:16:58 +00:00
** Smart Parenthesis
We need to make sure we keep the [[https://github.com/Fuco1/smartparens ][smartparens ]] project always in /strict mode/ , because who wants to worry about paren-matching:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package smartparens
:custom
(smartparens-global-strict-mode t)
:config
(sp-with-modes sp-lisp-modes
;; disable ', as it's the quote character:
(sp-local-pair "'" nil :actions nil))
(sp-with-modes (-difference sp-lisp-modes sp-clojure-modes)
;; use the pseudo-quote inside strings where it serve as hyperlink.
(sp-local-pair "`" "'"
:when '(sp-in-string-p
sp-in-comment-p)
:skip-match (lambda (ms _mb _me)
(cond
((equal ms "'") (not (sp-point-in-string-or-comment)))
(t (not (sp-point-in-string-or-comment)))))))
:hook
(prog-mode . smartparens-strict-mode))
#+end_src
** Navigation
*** Move by Functions
The =mark-paragraph= and =downcase-word= isn’ t very useful in a programming context, and makes more sense to use them to jump around function-by-function:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(evil-define-key '(normal insert emacs) prog-mode-map
(kbd "M-h") 'beginning-of-defun
(kbd "M-l") 'beginning-of-next-defun)
#+end_src
But one of those functions doesn’ t exist:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun beginning-of-next-defun (count)
"Move to the beginning of the following function."
(interactive "P")
(end-of-defun count)
(end-of-defun)
(beginning-of-defun))
#+end_src
2023-03-20 19:07:32 +00:00
*** dumb-jump
2022-10-26 04:38:48 +00:00
Once upon a time, we use to create a =TAGS= file that contained the database for navigating code bases, but with new faster versions of grep, e.g. [[https://beyondgrep.com ][ack ]], [[https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher ][ag ]] (aka, the Silver Searcher), [[https://github.com/Genivia/ugrep ][ugrep ]] and [[https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep ][ripgrep ]], we should be able to use them. but I want to:
2022-09-01 04:47:18 +00:00
- Be in a function, and see its callers. For this, the [[help:rg-dwim ][rg-dwim ]] function is my bread-and-butter.
- Be on a function, and jump to the definition. For this, I use [[https://github.com/jacktasia/dumb-jump ][dumb-jump ]], which uses the above utilities.

I have two different /jumping/ systems, the [[info:emacs#Xref ][Xref interface ]] and Evil’ s. While comparable goals, they are behave different. Let’ s compare evil keybindings:
| ~M-.~ | ~g .~ | [[help:xref-find-definitions][xref-find-definitions]] (also ~g d~ for [[help:evil-goto-definition][evil-goto-definition]])† |
| | ~g >~ | =xref-find-definitions-other-window= |
| ~M-,~ | ~g ,~ | [[help:xref-go-back][xref-go-back]] (see [[help:xref-pop-marker-stack][xref-pop-marker-stack]]) |
| ~C-M-,~ | ~g <~ | [[help:xref-go-forward][xref-go-forward]] (kinda like =xref-find-definitions=) |
| ~M-?~ | ~g /~ | [[help:xref-find-references][xref-find-references]] to go from definition to code calls‡ |
| | ~g ?~ | [[help:xref-find-references-and-replace][xref-find-references-and-replace]] could be more accurate than [[*iEdit][iEdit]]. |
| ~C-M-.~ | ~g h~ | [[help:xref-find-apropos][xref-find-apropos]] … doesn’ t work well without LSP |
| ~C-TAB~ | | perform completion around point (also ~M-TAB~), see [[file:ha-config.org::*Auto Completion][Auto Completion]]. |
† Prefix to prompt for the term \
‡ If it finds more than one definition, Emacs displays the [[info:emacs#Xref Commands ][*xref* buffer ]], allowing you to select the definition.

** Language Server Protocol (LSP) Integration
2022-10-26 04:38:48 +00:00
The [[https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/ ][LSP ]] is a way to connect /editors/ (like Emacs) to /languages/ (like Lisp)… wait, no. While originally designed for VS Code and probably Python, we can abstract away [[https://github.com/davidhalter/jedi ][Jedi ]] and the [[http://tkf.github.io/emacs-jedi/latest/ ][Emacs integration to Jedi ]] (and duplicate everything for Ruby, and Clojure, and…).
2021-11-18 16:17:20 +00:00
2022-08-10 04:29:41 +00:00
Emacs has two LSP projects, and while I have used [[LSP Mode ]], but since I don’ t have heavy IDE requirements, I am finding that [[eglot ]] to be simpler.

The [[https://github.com/tigersoldier/company-lsp ][company-lsp ]] offers a [[http://company-mode.github.io/ ][company ]] completion backend for [[https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-mode ][lsp-mode ]]:

To options that might be interesting:
- =company-lsp-async= : When set to non-nil, fetch completion candidates asynchronously.
- =company-lsp-enable-snippet= : Set it to non-nil if you want to enable snippet expansion on completion. Set it to nil to disable this feature.

*** iMenu
The [[https://github.com/emacs-lsp/lsp-ui/blob/master/lsp-ui-imenu.el ][lsp-imenu ]] project offers a =lsp-ui-imenu= function for jumping to functions:

*** Display Configuration
Using the [[https://github.com/seagle0128/doom-modeline ][Doom Modeline ]] to add notifications:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp

** Function Call Notifications
As I've mentioned [[http://www.howardism.org/Technical/Emacs/beep-for-emacs.html ][on my website ]], I've created a [[file:~/website/Technical/Emacs/beep-for-emacs.org ][beep function ]] that notifies when long running processes complete.

While that code /advices/ the publishing and compile commands, I may want to add more.
** iEdit
2021-12-30 02:51:25 +00:00
While there are language-specific ways to rename variables and functions, [[https://github.com/victorhge/iedit ][iedit ]] is often sufficient.

** Commenting
I like =comment-dwim= (~M-;~ ), and I like =comment-box= , but I have an odd personal style that I like to codify:
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
2022-10-26 04:38:48 +00:00

(setq start (line-beginning-position))
(setq end (line-end-position)))
(save-excursion
(narrow-to-region start end)

2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+end_src
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
And a keybinding:
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
2021-11-24 00:34:48 +00:00

2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
** Evaluation
2022-05-11 17:53:20 +00:00
While I like [[help:eval-print-last-sexp ][eval-print-last-sexp ]], I would like a bit of formatting in order to /keep the results/ in the file.
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
2022-05-11 17:53:20 +00:00
(defun ha-eval-print-last-sexp (&optional internal-arg)
"Evaluate the expression located before the point.
2022-10-26 04:38:48 +00:00

** Ligatures
2022-04-19 04:55:55 +00:00
The idea of using math symbols for a programming languages keywords is /cute/ , but can be confusing, so I use it sparingly:
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
2022-05-11 19:39:14 +00:00
(defun ha-prettify-prog ()
2022-05-11 17:53:20 +00:00
"Extends the `prettify-symbols-alist' for programming."
2022-05-11 19:39:14 +00:00
(mapc (lambda (pair) (push pair prettify-symbols-alist))
2022-05-11 17:53:20 +00:00
'(("lambda" . "𝝀")
(">=" . "≥")
("<=" . "≤")
("!=" . "≠")))
(prettify-symbols-mode))

2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+end_src
2022-10-26 04:38:48 +00:00
Hopefully I can follow [[https://www.masteringemacs.org/article/unicode-ligatures-color-emoji ][Mickey Petersen's essay ]] on getting full ligatures working, but right now, they don’ t work on the Mac, and that is my current workhorse.
2022-11-04 05:17:12 +00:00
** Compiling
The [[help:compile ][compile ]] function lets me enter a command to run, or I can search the history for a previous run. What it doesn’ t give me, is a project-specific list of commands. Perhaps, for each project, I define in =.dir-locals.el= a variable, =compile-command-list= , like:
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle no
2022-11-04 05:17:12 +00:00
((nil . ((compile-command . "make -k ")
(compile-command-list . ("ansible-playbook playbooks/confluence_test.yml"
"ansible-playbook playbooks/refresh_inventory.yml")))))
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+end_src
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
2022-11-04 05:17:12 +00:00
To make the =compile-command-list= variable less risky, we need to declare it:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defvar compile-command-list nil "A list of potential commands to give to `ha-project-compile'.")
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
2022-11-04 05:17:12 +00:00
(defun ha-make-compile-command-list-safe ()
"Add the current value of `compile-command-list' safe."
(interactive)
(add-to-list 'safe-local-variable-values `(compile-command-list . ,compile-command-list)))
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+end_src
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
2022-11-04 05:17:12 +00:00
What compile commands should I have on offer? Along with the values in =compile-command-list= (if set), I could look at files in the project’ s root and get targets from a =Makefile= , etc. We’ ll use helper functions I define later:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun ha--compile-command-list ()
"Return list of potential commands for a project."
(let ((default-directory (projectile-project-root)))
;; Make a list of ALL the things.
;; Note that `concat' returns an empty string if you give it null,
;; so we use `-concat' the dash library:
(-concat
compile-history
(ha--makefile-completions)
(ha--toxfile-completions)
(when (and (boundp 'compile-command-list) (listp compile-command-list))
compile-command-list))))
#+end_src
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
2022-11-25 07:13:09 +00:00
My replacement to [[help:compile ][compile ]] uses my new =completing-read= function:
2022-11-04 05:17:12 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun ha-project-compile (command)
"Run `compile' from a list of directory-specific commands."
(interactive (list (completing-read "Compile command: "
(ha--compile-command-list)
nil nil "" 'compile-history)))
(let ((default-directory (projectile-project-root)))
2022-11-25 07:13:09 +00:00
(cond
((string-match rx-compile-to-vterm command) (ha-compile-vterm command))
((string-match rx-compile-to-eshell command) (ha-compile-eshell command))
(t (compile command)))))
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+end_src
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
2022-11-25 07:13:09 +00:00
If I end a command with a =|v= , it sends the compile command to a vterm session for the project, allowing me to continue the commands:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defvar rx-compile-to-vterm (rx "|" (0+ space) "v" (0+ space) line-end))
(defun ha-compile-vterm (full-command &optional project-dir)
(unless project-dir
(setq project-dir (projectile-project-name)))
;; (add-to-list 'compile-history full-command)
(let ((command (replace-regexp-in-string rx-compile-to-vterm "" full-command)))
(ha-shell-send command project-dir)))
#+end_src
2023-01-05 05:29:39 +00:00
And what about sending the command to Eshell as well?
2022-11-25 07:13:09 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defvar rx-compile-to-eshell (rx "|" (0+ space) "s" (0+ space) line-end))
2023-01-10 03:54:14 +00:00
(defun ha-compile-eshell (full-command &optional project-dir)
"Send a command to the currently running Eshell terminal.
If a terminal isn't running, it will be started, allowing follow-up
commands."
(unless project-dir
(setq project-dir (projectile-project-name)))
2023-01-05 05:29:39 +00:00
(let ((command (replace-regexp-in-string rx-compile-to-eshell "" full-command)))
2023-01-10 03:54:14 +00:00
(ha-eshell-send command project-dir)))
2022-11-25 07:13:09 +00:00
#+end_src
2022-11-04 05:17:12 +00:00
And let’ s add it to the Project leader:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(ha-leader "p C" 'ha-project-compile)
#+end_src
Note that =p c= (to call [[help:recompile ][recompile ]]) should still work.
Other people’ s projects:
- [[https://github.com/Olivia5k/makefile-executor.el][makefile-executor.el]] :: works only with Makefiles
- [[https://github.com/tarsius/imake][imake]] :: works only with Makefiles that are formatted with a =help:= target
- [[https://github.com/emacs-taskrunner/emacs-taskrunner ][Taskrunner project ]] :: requires ivy or helm, but perhaps I could use the underlying infrastructure to good ol’ [[help:completing-read ][completing-read ]]
Note: Someday I may want to convert my =Makefile= projects to [[https://taskfile.dev/ ][Taskfile ]].
*** Makefile Completion
This magic script is what Bash uses for completion when you type =make= and hit the TAB:
#+name : make-targets
#+begin_src shell :tangle no
make -qRrp : 2> /dev/null | awk -F':' '/ ^[a-zA-Z0-9][^$#\\/\\t=]*:([^=]|$)/ {split($1,A,/ / );for(i in A)print A[i]}'
#+end_src
Which makes it easy to get a list of completions for my compile function:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :noweb yes
(defun ha--makefile-completions ()
"Returns a list of targets from the Makefile in the current directory."
(when (file-exists-p "Makefile")
(--map (format "make -k %s" it)
(shell-command-to-list "<<make-targets >>"))))
#+end_src
*** Python Tox Completion
Let’ s just grab the environments to run:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun ha--toxfile-completions ()
"Returns a list of targets from the tox.ini in the current directory."
(when (file-exists-p "tox.ini")
(--map (format "tox -e %s" it)
(shell-command-to-list "tox -a"))))
#+end_src
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
* Languages
2022-10-26 04:38:48 +00:00
Simple to configure languages go here. More advanced languages go into their own files… eventually.
2022-12-03 01:10:11 +00:00
** Configuration Files
So many configuration files to track:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package conf-mode
:mode (("\\.conf\\'" . conf-space-mode)
("\\.repo\\'" . conf-unix-mode)
("\\.setup.*\\'" . conf-space-mode)))
#+end_src
** JSON
While interested in the [[https://github.com/emacs-tree-sitter/tree-sitter-langs ][tree-sitter ]] extensions for JSON, e.g. =json-ts-mode= , that comes with Emacs 29, I’ ll deal with what is bundled now.
2022-09-01 04:47:46 +00:00
** Markdown
All the READMEs and other documentation use [[https://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/ ][markdown-mode ]].
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package markdown-mode
2022-12-03 19:14:42 +00:00

", p" '("preview" . markdown-export-and-preview)))
2022-09-01 04:47:46 +00:00

Note that the markdown-specific commands use the ~C-c C-c~ and ~C-c C-s~ prefixes.
2022-04-12 04:04:41 +00:00
** Ansible
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
Doing a lot of [[https://github.com/yoshiki/yaml-mode ][YAML work ]], but this project needs a new maintainer.
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00

2021-12-16 19:35:10 +00:00
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
Ansible uses Jinja, so we install the [[https://github.com/paradoxxxzero/jinja2-mode ][jinja2-mode ]]:
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp

Do I consider all YAML files an Ansible file needing [[https://github.com/k1LoW/emacs-ansible ][ansible-mode ]]?
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00

2022-04-12 17:42:01 +00:00
The [[help:ansible-vault-password-file ][ansible-vault-password-file ]] variable needs to change /per project/ , so let’ s use the =.dir-locals.el= file, for instance:
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle no
2022-04-12 17:42:01 +00:00

Can we integrate Ansible with LSP using [[https://github.com/ansible/ansible-language-server ][ansible-language-server ]] project (see [[https://emacs-lsp.github.io/lsp-mode/page/lsp-ansible/ ][this documentation ]])?
First, use =npm= to install the program:

Edit =Dockerfiles= with the [[https://github.com/spotify/dockerfile-mode ][dockerfile-mode ]] project:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(use-package dockerfile-mode :defer
:mode (rx string-start "Dockerfile")
:config
(ha-leader :keymaps 'dockerfile-mode-map
"a d b" '("build" . dockerfile-build-buffer)
"a d B" '("insert build tag" . ha-dockerfile-build-insert-header))
(defun ha-dockerfile-build-insert-header (image-name)
"Prepends the default Dockerfile image name at the top of a file."
(interactive "sDefault image name: ")
(save-excursion
(goto-char (point-min))
(insert (format "## -*- dockerfile-image-name: \"%s\" -* -" image-name))
(newline)))
:hook
(dockerfile-mode . display-line-numbers-mode))
#+END_SRC
/Control/ Docker from Emacs using the [[https://github.com/Silex/docker.el ][docker.el ]] project:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(use-package docker
:commands docker
:config
(ha-leader "a d d" 'docker))
#+END_SRC
Unclear whether I want to Tramp into a running container:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :tangle no
(use-package docker-tramp
:defer t
:after docker)
#+END_SRC

** Shell Scripts
2022-09-28 20:19:09 +00:00
While I don't like writing them, I can't get away from them. Check out the goodies in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTC6SP7R1hA&t=5s ][this video ]].

While filename extensions work fine most of the time, I don't like to pre-pend =.sh= to the shell scripts I write, and instead, would like to associate =shell-mode= with all files in a =bin= directory:
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
(use-package sh-mode
2021-11-14 06:18:19 +00:00
:straight (:type built-in)
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
:mode (rx (or (seq ".sh" eol)
"/bin/ "))
2022-09-28 20:19:09 +00:00
:init
(setq sh-basic-offset 2
sh-indentation 2)
2021-11-12 21:05:31 +00:00
:config
(ha-auto-insert-file (rx (or (seq ".sh" eol)
2022-09-28 20:19:09 +00:00
"/bin/ "))
"sh-mode.sh")
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
:hook
(after-save . executable-make-buffer-file-executable-if-script-p))
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+end_src
2022-09-28 20:19:09 +00:00
*Note:* we make the script /executable/ by default. See [[https://emacsredux.com/blog/2021/09/29/make-script-files-executable-automatically/ ][this essay ]] for details, but it turns on the executable bit if the script has a shebang at the top of the file.
The [[https://www.shellcheck.net/ ][shellcheck ]] project integrates with [[Flycheck ]]. First, install the executable into the system, for instance, on a Mac:
#+begin_src sh
brew install shellcheck
#+end_src
And we can enable it:
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
2022-09-28 20:19:09 +00:00
(flycheck-may-enable-checker 'sh-shellcheck)
#+end_src
Place the following /on a line/ before a shell script warning to ignore it:
#+begin_src sh
# shellcheck disable=SC2116,SC2086
#+end_src
See [[https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck/wiki/Ignore ][this page ]] for details.
Integration with the [[https://github.com/bash-lsp/bash-language-server ][Bash LSP implementation ]]. First, install that too:
#+begin_src sh
brew install bash-language-server
#+end_src
** Fish Shell
2022-10-10 21:41:52 +00:00
I think the [[https://fishshell.com/ ][fish shell ]] is an interesting experiment (and I appreciate the basics that come with [[https://github.com/emacsmirror/fish-mode ][fish-mode ]]).
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
2021-11-12 21:05:31 +00:00
(use-package fish-mode
:mode (rx ".fish" eol)
:config
2021-11-14 06:14:55 +00:00
(ha-auto-insert-file (rx ".fish") "fish-mode.sh")
2021-11-12 21:05:31 +00:00
:hook
(fish-mode . (lambda () (add-hook 'before-save-hook 'fish_indent-before-save))))
2022-06-18 00:25:47 +00:00
#+end_src
2021-11-09 00:02:13 +00:00
