It is now possible to use package properties like :location in
dotspacemacs-themes.
Added hooks ran at the beginning and end of configuration-layer/sync:
- configuration-layer-pre-sync-hook
- configuration-layer-post-sync-hook
configuration-layer-pre-sync-hook is used to hook the new function
spacemacs//add-theme-packages-to-additional-packages. This new function updates
dotspacemacs--additional-theme-packages variables.
Update documentation to mention the new feature.
Changed the buffer transient states formatting so that it matches
most of the other transient states.
Frontend
Reduced spacing:
- Between the keys and descriptions, from 2 to 1.
- Between both columns, from 4 to 2.
Backend
The first column didn't need the last two "^" (caret) characters.
Changed the last line so that "^^^^" starts below the first column.
Update the formatting of the SPC w . window manipulation
transient state panel.
Select column
Change "[0-9] window N", to "[0..9] window 0..9",
so that it matches the SPC "0..9 -> window 0..9" and
SPC b "1..9 -> buffer to window 1..9" combined entries.
Split column
Add "i" to the end of "vert", then it'll have the same number
of characters as "horiz", and the text will be aligned.
Resize column
Shorten "horizontally" and "vertically" to "horiz" and "verti",
it reduces the panels width slightly.
Other column
Shorten the horizontal line below the title, so that it matches
the longest key description.
Move [q] quit to the bottom of the column.
All columns
Equalize the horizontal spacing between the columns,
from: 2, 2, 3, 3, to 2 between all columns.
Updated entry for "show dotfiles at ranger startup" option.
Old variable had no effect (possibly deprecated)
Updated entry for "show previews literally" option.
Old variable had no effect (possibly mistype)
Cycle collection type was recently removed from `clj-refactor` as the
feature was migrated and rewritten in `clojure-mode`. The new feature
lets the user convert a collection into a specific collection type
instead of cycling through them.
To added shortcuts correspond to the shortcuts of this feature in
`clojure-mode` and placed in the refactor submenu.
Add all theme packages defined in dotspacemacs-themes to the variable
dotspacemacs-additional-packages and delay the application of user theme at the
end of startup (only when user theme cannot be applied at the very beginning
of Emacs startup).
This has nice properties:
- we leverage the layer system to handle the theme packages installation and
cleanup.
- theme packages are automatically owned by the dotfile preventing them from
being garbage collected.
- the protected package mechanism is now obsolete since themes were the last
packages using it. This mechanism may be removed in a near future.
Thanks to TheBB for the initial idea.
Distribute spacemacs-theme with Spacemacs so we don't need to download the
package of the theme at startup. It was delaying the display of the home buffer.
Now Spacemacs fallback to spacemacs-dark theme if the user theme cannot be
applied. Spacemacs then tries to install and reapply the user theme. If
successful, at the subsequent startups the user theme is applied right away
instead of spacemacs-dark. If the installation failed then we display a warning
informing the user and suggesting some actions.
There is now no package left to be installed manually at the start of Spacemacs.
Since Emacs 25.1 I got screen flickering when packages are installed on
startup.
Shuffling the UI elements removal seems to fix it on my system using X.
It may have the opposite effect on other users setup.
Thanks to the power provided by Lisp, hack package-install to patch on the
fly org and org dependencies installations in order to install org-plus-contrib
instead.
It is now possible to add local elpa repositories to private variable
configuration-layer--elpa-archives for instance:
(defvar configuration-layer--elpa-archives
'(("spacelpa" . "~/.emacs.d/.cache/spacelpa/"))
"List of ELPA archives required by Spacemacs.")
New functions:
- configuration-layer//package-archive-absolute-pathp
- configuration-layer//package-archive-local-pathp
Fix computation of package installation lazyness when the variable
dotspacemacs-enable-lazy-installation is set to all.
Improve methods on cfgl-layer class to be able to return a list of packages with
or without their properties.
Update tests to reflect the changes.
Discard the warnings produced when packages are byte-compiled which fix the
popup of the *Compile-Log* window at the end of the installation.
If emacs has been launch with argument `--debug-init` we don't discard the
warnings.
Function configuration-layer/load-or-install-package now correctly add the
installed packages to indexed-package hash map.
Those packages are put under the special layer `system`.
This is the first stone toward Spacemacs own ELPA repository.
New function configuration-layer/create-spacelpa-repository which creates the
archive-contents file for the Spacelpa repository containing all the ELPA
packages supported by Spacemacs (and only them).
Awkward patch since the function configuration-layer/declare-layer is not
tested.
We should add tests for this function and then this patch would be more
acceptable.
