Add a README.org to the Helm layer to fix `helm-spacemacs-help-layers`
(`SPC h l`). There is little actual documentation -- it just links to
the official docs as well as the Helm wiki and the Helm guide.
Issue #8679
rg tries to be smart about printing line numbers in its output (if running
inside a TTY or not). On Windows, sometimes (always?) it chooses not to print
line number. However, we always want line numbers, so we need to pass -n flag.
Also fix a minor grammar mistake.
Getting FAQ candidates requires org to be loaded which in turn requires to
load magit (via orgit) etc...
This commit moves the FAQ helm source to a new feature helm-spacemacs-faq and
removes the FAQ source from SPC h SPC so the FAQs are only available as a helm
source via SPC h f.
But we have still the FAQ org file entry in SPC h SPC so it is easy to open
the file from the main help key binding.
I find myself wanting to open the package.el and f3 is just too far away
in my keyboard. And I thought maybe this would be something people might
want. Also maybe we could have special binding for actions? like `C-1`
`C-2`, etc
- Apply `/` and `//` rules (double / is for private functions)
- Add missing `spacemacs/` prefixes
- Move functions used outside of spacemacs-base layer to
core/core-funcs.el
- Remove unused functions
Commit originally intented to only rename linum-update-window-scale-fix
to spacemacs/linum-update-window-scale-fix :-)
Fixes some edge cases like SPC f e R performed after SPC h SPC which
could wrongly install or uninstall packages.
Side effects is contained using the variable
configuration-layer--package-properties-read-onlyp, if non nil then
properties value of a package cannot be overwritten.
TL;DR Should get 20~25% speed improvement on startup, should get a big
improvement when using ivy or helm SPC h SPC. Users with layers.el files
in their layers must use `configuration-layer/declare-used-layer`
instead of `configuration-layer/declare-layer`
The implementation of the layer system made heavy use of `object-assoc`
and `object-assoc-list` functions which are not efficient. This PR
mainly replaces those object lists with hash maps in order to index the
objects by their name and achieve an O(1) access time.
The old object lists `configuration-layer--layers` and
`configuration-layer--packages` have been each by two variables each:
- `configuration-layer--indexed-layers` which is a hash-map of all the
layer objects and `configuration-layer--used-layers` which is a list of
all _used_ layers symbols,
- symmetrically `configuration-layer--indexed-packages` which is a
hash-map of all the package objects and
`configuration-layer--used-packages` which is a list of all _used_
packages symbols.
The hash map `configuration-layer--layer-paths` is gone, now we create
directly layer objects when discovering the layers and set the :dir
property. Note that previously the layer paths were the parent directory
of the layer, now :dir is the layer path.
The function `configuration-layer//make-layer` is now similar to its
counterpart `configuration-layer//make-package` in the sense that it
takes an optional `obj` to be able to override its properties.
The functions `configuration-layer/declare-layer` and
`configuration-layer/declare-layers` now takes an optional parameter
`usedp` in order to declare used or not used layers. For convenience
new functions have been added: `configuration-layer/declare-used-layer`
and `configuration-layer/declare-used-layers`, users _must_ update all
occurrences of `configuration-layer/declare-layer` by
`configuration-layer/declare-used-layers` in their `layers.el` files.
`helm-spacemacs-help` and `ivy-spacemacs-help` are updated to match the
changes in `core-configuration-layer.el`.
Rename some variables to make them more explicit:
`configuration-layer-no-layer` -> `configuration-layer-exclude-all-layers`
`configuration-layer-distribution` -> `configuration-layer-force-distribution`
With this new variable, user can load spacemacs anywhere, e.g.
"~/.emacs.d/spacemacs/". Only user's cache directory is still hard-coded
as "~/.emacs.d/.cache/". If user want to use spacemacs this way, drop
one line as the below in "~/.emacs.d/init.el":
(setq spacemacs-start-directory "~/.emacs.d/spacemacs/")
(load-file (concat spacemacs-start-directory "init.el"))
As it was the case during the good old days when spacemacs was still a
baby, SPC h SPC now list correctly all the pre/init/post functions and
the associsted layer. It also now list properly the current owner of
a package so it is easy to find the owner of a package by narrowing
with `packagename owner`.
This new old functionality is possible by leveraging the last
improvements to the layer system (see previous commits).
TODO: update the sources for Ivy
Correctly augment the docstring based on the presence of b,f and /
bindings using dynamic hint.
b,f and / are not available if none of helm or ivy layers are used.
