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`
- Prefer add-to-list function to alter golden-ratio variables so the lists
are less likely to grows as users reload their spacemacs config.
- Move some config to layers when appropriate
- Sort alphabetically the values
- Remove some duplicates in exclude-modes
As reported in #5694 dash layer cannot be configured according to the
documentation. This commit fixes that, and allows you to actually define docset
path with `helm-dash-docset-newpath`. It also defines more sensible default for
docset `~/.docsets`, which is the default path for helm-dash.
Fixes#5694
The binding of `SPC m n` calls `deft-new-file`, which only uses the
filter text `(when deft-use-filter-string-for-filename)`, which is set
to nil originally. So we need to make it true.
After 63dc8f7ea0 `SPC '` started to ask
for "Run program" instead of opening the shell with the defined shell.
This commit remove the `call-interactively` that are causing this
problem. `SPC u SPC '` is still working as far as I tested.
This makes sure that all the setup happens at the same time. Previously
some setup happened at loading time of esh-mode while some happened in
eshell-mode-hook. Everything output between this (the first prompt)
looks different.
