Enabling a company backend for a specific mode was a tedious tasks with code
scattered at different locations, one for local variable definitions, one for
company hook function definitions and another where the backends were pushed to
the local variables (which was problematic, since we ended up pushing the same
backends over and over again with `SPC f e R`, pushes have been replaced by
add-to-list calls in the new macro).
All these steps are now put together at one place with the new macro
spacemacs|add-company-backends, check its docstring for more info on its
arguments.
This macro also allows to define arbitrary buffer local variables to tune
company for specific modes (similar to layer variables via a keyword :variables)
The code related to company backends management has been moved to the
auto-completion layer in the funcs.el file. A nice side effect of this move is
that it enforces correct encapsulation of company backends related code. We can
now easily detect if there is some configuration leakage when the
auto-completion layer is not used. But we loose macro expansion at file loading
time (not sue it is a big concern though).
The function spacemacs|enable-auto-complete was never used so it has been
deleted which led to the deletion of the now empty file core-auto-completion.el.
The example in LAYERS.org regarding auto-completion is now out of date and has
been deleted. An example to setup auto-completion is provided in the README.org
file of the auto-completion layer.
Move add-company-hook calls to correct init functions (only css backend is from
company package, the others are from company-web).
Correctly add company backends for jade and slim. Jade has been renamed to
Pug , there is no guarantee at all that jade references still work. To check.
Jade has been deprecated and there is little need to support jade to
support jade anymore. If people need jade-mode, they can install the
package themselves and configure it. Pug is the renamed Jade project.
`spacemacs` now handles `rainbow-delimiters-mode` by adding it to the
`prog-mode-hook`, if wanted by the user. Some layers are adding it on
their own mode-hook, having for effect that `rainbow-delimiters-mode` is
called twice, which disable it.
This commit remove these layer-specific definitions of
`rainbow-delimiters` as it is now handled by the `spacemacs`
distribution. It also takes care of running `prog-mode-hook` in modes
that are not derived from it.
Fixes#3902
- Conceptually it just doesn't feel right: JSX is no HTML, this would be the wrong layer.
- There's a react layer that provides dedicated JSX support.
- And there are other modes for JSX (js2-jsx-mode for instance) that user might want to use,
without affecting Web Mode for template files.
Helm seems to treat "!" specially in pattern matching, so having a ! in
the pattern string when traversing directories is problematic. This
change fixes#2737, because as far as I can tell "+" has no special
meaning in a helm pattern.
Of course, we can choose a different character, but I'm fond of "+" as
representing "more layers here".
