* Configuring Elfeed
|
|
Let's get our feeds from a collection of org mode files. By default, Doom configures =rmh-elfeed-org-files= to [[file:~/Dropbox/org/elfeed.org][elfeed.org]] in =org-directory=, so that will be fine.
|
|
|
|
By setting this variable, we configure elfeed to use elfeed:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(setq rmh-elfeed-org-files (list (f-join hamacs-source-dir "ha-feed-reader.org")))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
While I would like to share the /status/ of my reads, so ...
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(use-package elfeed
|
|
:config
|
|
(setq elfeed-db-directory "~/dropbox/.elfeed/")
|
|
(evil-define-key 'normal elfeed-show-mode-map (kbd "q") 'delete-window)
|
|
(evil-define-key 'normal elfeed-search-mode-map (kbd "r") 'ha-elfeed-tag-unread)
|
|
(evil-define-key 'normal elfeed-search-mode-map (kbd "R") 'elfeed-search-update--force)
|
|
|
|
;; And let's make the Space pull of my general leader:
|
|
(general-unbind elfeed-show-mode-map "SPC")
|
|
(general-unbind elfeed-search-mode-map "SPC")
|
|
|
|
(use-package elfeed-org
|
|
:config
|
|
(elfeed-org)))
|
|
|
|
(defun ha-elfeed-tag-unread ()
|
|
(interactive)
|
|
(elfeed-search-untag-all 'unread)
|
|
(elfeed-search-update))
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
|
|
According to Ben Maughan and [[http://pragmaticemacs.com/emacs/to-eww-or-not-to-eww/][this Pragmatic Emacs essay]], we could easily browse an article in the GUI browser instead of EWW with capital B:
|
|
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(defun elfeed-show-visit-gui ()
|
|
"Wrapper for elfeed-show-visit to use gui browser instead of eww"
|
|
(interactive)
|
|
(let ((browse-url-generic-program "/usr/bin/open"))
|
|
(elfeed-show-visit t)))
|
|
|
|
(define-key elfeed-show-mode-map (kbd "B") 'elfeed-show-visit-gui)
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
|
Finally, we can add it to the =apps= menu:
|
|
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
|
|
(ha-leader "a e" 'elfeed)
|
|
#+END_SRC
|
