Chrome layer
Description
This layer provides some integration with the Google Chrome browser.
Features:
- Edit text boxes with Emacs using edit-server
- Write markdown in Emacs and realtime show in chrome using flymd
- gmail message mode uses standard markdown keybindings
Install
Layer
To use this configuration layer, add it to your ~/.spacemacs
. You will need to
add chrome
to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
list in this
file.
Chrome extension
edit-server is a server that responds to edit requests sent Chrome via the Google Chrome extension Edit with Emacs. You have to install this extension.
More information can be found on Emacs Wiki.
The edit server is configured to start automatically when Spacemacs starts.
Configuration
Use edit-server-url-major-mode-alist
to choose a major mode initialization
function based on edit-server-url
, or fall back to
edit-server-default-major-mode
that has a current value of markdown-mode
.
(defun dotspacemacs/user-config ()
;; Open github text areas as org buffers
;; currently they are opened as markdown
(setq edit-server-url-major-mode-alist
'(("github\\.com" . org-mode))))
To change frame defaults (width, height, etc. use edit-server-new-frame-alist
)
(add-to-list 'edit-server-new-frame-alist '(width . 140))
(add-to-list 'edit-server-new-frame-alist '(height . 60))
If you want Emacs to switch focus to Chrome after done editing, you can utilize
edit-server-done-hook
.
Emacs cannot control focus of windows for external apps, so you need to use some
sort of command line window manager like wmctrl
.
The following example works on OS X:
(add-hook 'edit-server-done-hook (lambda () (shell-command "open -a \"Google Chrome\"")))
