This naming convention was meant to be for batch commands, but it grew
to include "commands that were helpful with managing Doom", but many of
these commands shouldn't be interactive in the first place!
...if it exists. Otherwise fall back on original functionality. This
allows certain symbols to overwrite where Emacs thinks they were
defined.
Warning: only use this for autodefs! It may have unintended side-effects
for other symbols.
+ Move doom-initialize et co into core.el
+ Lazy load core-packages
+ load! has been moved into core-lib
+ Added FILE! and DIR! macros
+ Fix package! not returning correct value when package is disabled
+ Remove :disabled support for def-package-hook! officially
Removes doom-module-table; which was inflexible (though more stable). It
prevented you from putting your doom! block in anywhere but
~/.doom.d/init.el.
It is replaced (somewhat) by (doom-modules).
The autoloads file has been split into doom-autoload-file and
doom-package-autoload-file. The former is for Doom's modules and
standard library; the latter is for compiling all package autoloads like
load-path and auto-mode-alist (among other things).
This reduced my startup speed from ~1s to ~0.5s
This offloads some of the work Doom has to do creating
`doom-packages-file` onto `make autoloads`. This closely mimics the
package-quickstart-refresh functionality in Emacs 27+, but is more
specialized.
This means package autoloads are now loaded on every startup.
Many :mode, :interpreter, and :commands declarations in def-package!
blocks are made redundant by this and will be cleaned up soon.
:defer now supports a hook, a cons cell with (SYMBOL . INTEGER) where
SYMBOL is a hook and INTEGER is a number of idle seconds before the
package is autoloaded, or just the integer (as per the default behavior
of :defer).
Also fixes an issue where switch-buffer-deffered packages (like
smartparens) wouldn't load.
+ New `input` and `buffer` support for :defer in def-package! can now
defer packages until the first command invoked after startup or first
interactive buffer switch, respectively
+ Exploit these new :defer techniques to lazy-load many core packages,
netting Doom a 20-30% decrease in startup time
+ Various userland macros (like package!, def-package-hook!, packages!,
and disable-packages!) will now throw an error if used incorrectly
(i.e. outside of their intended files; e.g. package! should be used in
packages.el files)
+ Removed support for multiple/nested doom! calls. There should only be
THE ONE in ~/.doom.d/init.el (or ~/.config/doom/init.el)
+ Fix an issue where load-path and auto-mode-list modifications would
not persist because doom-packages-file was cached too late.
+ Added package-activated-list to cached variables in
doom-packages-file, thus we no longer need custom-file.
+ Load Doom core files from doom-initialize. Now doom-initialize can be
called from state-dependent non-interactive functions, instead of
reloading core/core.el, which was clumsy
+ Removed the doom-post-init-hook hook. There was no reason for it to
exist when doom-init-hook can simply be appended to
The config/private module has been removed. ~/.doom.d (or
~/.config/doom; whichever is detected first) is now a first class
citizen of Doom and should just work(tm).
Your init.el only needs to contain:
(require 'core (concat user-emacs-directory "core/core"))
And you may place your doom! block in ~/.doom.d/init.el (or
~/.config/doom/init.el).
