This update may potentially break your usage of add-hook! if you pass
the :local or :append properties to it. This is how they used to work:
(add-hook! :append 'some-mode-hook #'do-something)
Thsoe properties must now follow the hooks, e.g.
(add-hook! 'some-mode-hook :append #'do-something)
Other changes:
- Various add-hook calls have been renamed to add-hook! because I
incorrectly assumed `defun` always returned its definition's symbol,
when in fact, its return value is "undefined" (so sayeth the
documentation). This should fix#1597.
- This update adds the ability to add multiple functions to hooks
without a list:
(add-hook! 'some-mode-hook
#'do-something
#'do-something-else)
- The indentation logic has been changed so that consecutive function
symbols at indented at the same level as the first argument, but forms
are indent like a defun.
(add-hook! 'some-mode-hook
#'do-something
#'do-something-else)
(add-hook! 'some-mode-hook
(message "Hello"))
This commit does two things:
- Renames def-advice! to defadvice!, in the spirit of naming convenience
macros after the function/macro they enhance or replace.
- Correct the names of advice functions to indicate visibility and
intent. A public advice function like doom-set-jump-a is meant to be
used elsewhere. A private one like +dired--cleanup-header-line-a
shouldn't -- it likely won't work anywhere but the function(s) it was
made to advise.
Calling this pivotal macro "def-package!" has frequently been a source
of confusion. It is a thin wrapper around use-package, and it should be
obvious that it is so. For this reason, and to match the naming
convention used with other convenience macros/wrappers, it is now
use-package!.
Also changes def-package-hook! -> use-package-hook!
The old macros are now marked obsolete and will be removed when straight
integration is merged.
- Adds the auto-minor-mode package to replace our in-house
implementation.
- Merges associate! into the def-project-mode! macro because associate!
on its own is less useful than auto-minor-mode-alist,
auto-minor-mode-magic-alist or hooks.
- Changes the semantics of :modes and :add-hooks properties of
def-project-mode!. Its arguments are evaluated as is; lists will need
to be quoted.
squash! core-lib: remove associate! macro
This is second of three big naming convention changes. In this commit,
we change the naming conventions for hook functions and variable
functions:
1. Replace the bar | to indicate a hook function with a -h suffix, e.g.
doom|init-ui -> doom-init-ui-h
doom|run-local-var-hooks -> doom-run-local-var-hooks-h
2. And add a -fn suffix for functions meant to be set on variables,
e.g.
(setq magit-display-buffer-function #'+magit-display-buffer-fn)
See ccf327f8 for the reasoning behind these changes.
This is first of three big naming convention updates that have been a
long time coming. With 2.1 on the horizon, all the breaking updates will
batched together in preparation for the long haul.
In this commit, we do away with the asterix to communicate that a
function is an advice function, and we replace it with the '-a' suffix.
e.g.
doom*shut-up -> doom-shut-up-a
doom*recenter -> doom-recenter-a
+evil*static-reindent -> +evil--static-reindent-a
The rationale behind this change is:
1. Elisp's own formatting/indenting tools would occasionally struggle
with | and * (particularly pp and cl-prettyprint). They have no
problem with / and :, fortunately.
2. External syntax highlighters (like pygmentize, discord markdown or
github markdown) struggle with it, sometimes refusing to highlight
code beyond these symbols.
3. * and | are less expressive than - and -- in communicating the
intended visibility, versatility and stability of a function.
4. It complicated the regexps we must use to search for them.
5. They were arbitrary and over-complicated to begin with, decided
on haphazardly way back when Doom was simply "my private config".
Anyhow, like how predicate functions have the -p suffix, we'll adopt the
-a suffix for advice functions, -h for hook functions and -fn for
variable functions.
Other noteable changes:
- Replaces advice-{add,remove}! macro with new def-advice!
macro. The old pair weren't as useful. The new def-advice! saves on a
lot of space.
- Removed "stage" assertions to make sure you were using the right
macros in the right place. Turned out to not be necessary, we'll
employ better checks later.
A slight performance improvement in files with a lot of comments and
strings, by skipping ahead a line if in a comment and to the next double
quote if in a string. Otherwise, this function would visit every symbol
in between, and syntax-ppss calls are relatively expensive here.
However, with `emacs-lisp-checkdoc` disabled and `emacs-lisp`
significantly gimped.
byte-compile-warnings may need to be adjusted to allow for *some*
warnings.
Also, reformat emacs-lisp-mode hooks
:feature was a "catch-all" category. Many of its modules fit better in
other categories, so they've been moved:
- feature/debugger -> tools/debugger
- feature/evil -> editor/evil
- feature/eval -> tools/eval
- feature/lookup -> tools/lookup
- feature/snippets -> editor/snippets
- feature/file-templates -> editor/file-templates
- feature/workspaces -> ui/workspaces
More potential changes in the future:
- A new :term category for terminal emulation modules (eshell, term and
vterm).
- A new :os category for modules dedicated to os-specific functionality.
The :tools macos module would fit here, but so would modules for nixos
and arch.
- A new :services category for web-service integration, like wakatime,
twitter, elfeed, gist and pastebin services.
This will later be used for doom/describe-packages to list all locations
where a package is being configured (along with def-package! and after!
blocks).
Patch the apropos button types so they call helpful instead of the
built-in describe functions. Also add some bindings to apropos-mode-map
so it behaves like other help modes.
Add `doom/describe-symbol` function, which shows documentation for
callable and variable symbols. If a symbol is both a variable and a
callable, it dispatches to apropos. This gives a better workflow than
`helpful-symbol`, which annoyingly prompts the user.
Remap `describe-symbol` to `doom/describe-symbol`, and update
`+emacs-lisp-lookup-documentation` to call it also.
