The change was introduced by #13059. mocker.el is a large piece of legacy code
that depends on deprecated functionality in EIEIO and cannot be trivially
converted to use `cl-lib` by search and replace.
Fix several problems with environment variable caching.
First, if a shell printed extra output besides the command output,
spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env included the extra output in .spacemacs.env.
For example, a login shell could print a motd, which would be erroneously
included in .spacemacs.env. To avoid this, spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env
now redirects the command output to a temporary file and then reads the
file.
Second, spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env sorted lines using the entire
"name=value" string for each line whereas the correct behavior is to sort
only on the "name" part. To fix this, spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env now
uses sort-regexp-fields with an appropriate regexp to match the "name" part
and ignore the "value" part.
Third, although load-env-vars-set-env added all PATH settings in
.spacemacs.env to exec-path, it set PATH to the first PATH setting in
.spacemacs.env. Now load-env-vars-set-env sets PATH from exec-path so that
it will reflect that combined value.
Fourth, load-env-vars-set-env set exec-path and PATH without consideration
to the operating system's directory separator. Now load-env-vars-set-env
converts backslashes to forward slashes when adding path entries to
exec-path and converts forward slashes to backslashes when setting PATH on
platforms that use backslashes.
Fifth, load-env-vars-set-env now normalizes exec-path by deleting trailing
slashes from path entries, converting drive letters in path entries to
lower-case, and deleting duplicate path entries.
Sixth, Spacemacs no longer uses exec-path-from-shell, but a changelog entry
said that it did. This commit corrects the changelog entry, deletes
another outdated entry, and merges two entries that covered the same
functionality.
Finally, this commit corrects several typos and tries to improve wording in
several docstrings, messages, and comments.
* CHANGELOG.develop: Delete mention of exec-path-from-shell, which
Spacemacs no longer uses by default. Delete mention of
dotspacemacs-import-env-vars-from-shell and
dotspacemacs-import-env-vars-shell-file-name, which no longer exist.
Merge entries about synchronizing environment variables.
* core/core-env.el (spacemacs-ignored-environment-variables): Fix typos and
mention that the strings are regexps that are matched against the names of
environment variables.
(spacemacs//init-spacemacs-env): Use a temporary file rather than standard
output in order to avoid getting motd and other noise. Sort lines using
only environment variables' names, not their values. Better describe the
behavior with respect to spacemacs-ignored-environment-variables, duplicate
settings, and PATH. Try to make wording clearer.
(spacemacs/edit-env): Fix typos in the docstring.
* core/libs/load-env-vars.el (load-env-vars-set-env): Fix typos in the
docstring. Delete trailing slashes from path entries in exec-path, convert
drive letters to lower-case, delete duplicate path entries, and convert
backslashes to forward slashes when setting exec-path. Set PATH from
exec-path, converting forward slashes to backslashes on platforms that use
backslashes.
* add new dotfile function `dotspacemacs/user-env`
* add ignored env. vars with variable spacemacs-ignored-environment-variables
* ignore env vars: SSH_AUTH_SOCK and DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
* update documentation in DOCUMENTATION.org
* update .spacemacs.template with new function
* rename environment file from spacemacs.env to .spacemacs.env
* move location of .spacemacs.env file to home or dotdirectory
* add a header to the generated .spacemacs.env file to explain what it is
* make SPC f e e fallbacks to the function dotspacemacs/user-env if the user
manages the env var by themselves
* make SPC f e E call the new function dotspacemacs/user-env
* sort environment variables in .spacemacs.env file
See updated DOCUMENTATION.org and FAQ.org for more info.
* add core-env.el
* add library load-env-vars.el
* add bootstrap package dotenv-mode.el
* remove spacemacs-environment from bootstrap layer
* remove dotspacemacs variable dotspacemacs-import-env-vars-from-shell
* remove dotspacemacs variable dotspacemacs-improt-env-vars-shell-file-name
* add new key binding SPC f e e to open spacemacs.env file
* add new key binding SPC f e E to reload environment variable from env file
* add new key binding SPC f e C-e to re-initialize the env file from shell.
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.
