1.2.3 (2020-11-13)

Primarily a stabilization and bug-fix release.

Org-roam-dailies has also been revamped to include new features, see this video for a quick overview.

Added

  • #978 Revamp org-roam-dailies
  • #1183 Interactive functions for managing aliases and tags in Org-roam file, namely org-roam-alias-add, org-roam-alias-delete, org-roam-tag-add, and org-roam-tag-delete.

  • #1239 Allow org-roam-protocol to capture the webpage's selection, and add a toggle for storing the links to the pages
  • #1264 add org-roam-db-update-method to control when the cache is rebuilt.

Changed

  • #1264 renamed org-roam-update-db-idle-seconds to org-roam-db-idle-idle-seconds

Fixed

  • #1074 fix org-roam--extract-links to handle content boundaries.
  • #1193 fix org-roam-db-build-cache by not killing temporary buffer in org-roam--extract-links.
  • #1195 fix ID face showing as invalid if within Org ID files, but not Org-roam's.
  • #1199 make Org-roam link insertions respect org-roam-link-title-format everywhere.
  • #1201 fix org-roam-db-build-cache failing in scenarios involving duplicate IDs and deleted files.
  • #1226 only update relative path of file links
  • #1232 fix incorrect title extractions from narrowed buffers
  • #1233 fixes bug where descriptive file links become plain links during update for relative paths
  • #1252 respect original link type during automatic replacement

1.2.2 (2020-10-06)

In this release we support fuzzy links of the form [[roam:Title]], [[roam:*Headline]] and [[roam:Title*Headline]]. Completion for these fuzzy links is supported via completion-at-point.

Org-roam now does not resolve symlinks. This significantly speeds up cache builds, but may result in some workflows breaking. In particular, Org-roam now cannot figure out if two distinct file paths in the Org-roam directory are the same file, and both files will be processed as if they were different files. This error seems to be unavoidable now that symlinks are not resolved, but this workflow is rare and should not affect most users.

This change requires you to set org-roam-directory to the resolved path of a folder. That is:

(setq org-roam-directory (file-truename "/path/to/directory/"))

Breaking Changes

  • #1164 Org-roam now stores the database in the user's Emacs directory by default
  • #910 Deprecate company-org-roam, using completion-at-point instead. To use this with company, add the company-capf backend instead.
  • #1109 Org-roam now does not resolve symlinks.

Features

  • #1163 Support file-level IDs introduced in Org 9.4
  • #1093 Add vanilla org-roam-tag-source to extract buffer Org tags
  • #1079 Add org-roam-tag-face to customize appearance of tags in interactive commands
  • #1073 Rename file on title change, when org-roam-rename-file-on-title-change is non-nil.
  • #1071 Update link descriptions on title changes, and clean-up rename file advice
  • #1061 Speed up the extraction of file properties, headlines, and titles
  • #1046 New user option to exclude files from Org-roam
  • #1032 File changes are now propagated to the database on idle timer. This prevents large wait times during file saves.
  • #974 Protect region targeted by org-roam-insert
  • #994 Simplify org-roam-store-link
  • #1062 Variable org-roam-completions-everywhere allows for completions everywhere from word at point
  • #910, #1105 Support fuzzy links of the form [[roam:Title]], [[roam:*Headline]] and [[roam:Title*Headline]]

Bugfixes

  • #1057 Improve performance of database builds by preventing generation of LaTeX and image previews.
  • #1103 Fix long build-times for Windows on files with URL links

1.2.1 (2020-07-27)

This release consisted of a big deal of refactoring and bug fixes. Notably, we fixed several catastrophic failures on db builds with bad setups (#854), and modularized tag and title extractions.

We also added some new features that had been a long time coming:

  1. We made the backlinks more outline-friendly by also showing the outline hierarchy for a backlink (#863)
  2. We now support nested captures, which is crucial for org-roam-protocol (#966)

Breaking Changes

  • #908 Normalized titles in database. May break external packages that rely on unnormalized titles.

Features

  • #814 Implement org-roam-insert-immediate
  • #833 Add customization of file titles with org-roam-title-to-slug-function.
  • #839 Return selected file from org-roam-insert
  • #847 Add GC threshold org-roam-db-gc-threshold to temporarily change the threshold on expensive operations.
  • #847 Use sqlite3 transactions instead of storing the values to be inserted.
  • #851 Add 'first-directory' option for org-roam-tag-sources
  • #863 Display outline hierarchy in backlinks buffer
  • #898 Add org-roam-random-note to browse a random note.
  • #900 Support and index all valid org links
  • #966 Enable nested captures

Bugfixes

  • #854 Warn instead of fail when duplicate refs and IDs exist.
  • #857 Fix tag extraction for symlinked directories.
  • #894 Perform link fixes on all Org-roam files
  • #952 Cache ${foo} template variables so they do not need to be re-entered twice

1.2.0 (2020-06-12)

In this release, we improved the linking process by achieving feature parity between links to files and links to headlines. Before, we used the file:foo::*bar format to link to the headline bar in file foo, but this was prone to breakage upon renaming the file or modifying the headline. This is not the case anymore. Now, we use org-id to create IDs for those headlines, which are then stored in our database to compute the relationships and jump around. Note that this will work even if you’re not using org-id in your global configuration for Org-mode.

This is a major step forward. Supporting the in-file structure of Org-mode files means that we can interface with many of its core-features like TODOs, properties, priorities, etc. UX will have to be figured out, but this release ushers in a new age in terms of functionalities.

We also add org-roam-unlinked-references, which naively finds text that could be references to the current Org-roam file.

Breaking Changes

  • #701 Use emacsql-sqlite3 instead of emacsql-sqlite for better Windows compatibility. This requires the presence of the standard sqlite3 binary on your machine.
  • #750 Deprecate org-roam-buffer-no-delete-other-windows in favour of org-roam-buffer-window-parameters.

Features

  • #787 Add org-roam-unlinked-references
  • #783 Add support for headlines
  • #757 Roam global properties are now case-insensitive
  • #680 , #703, #708 Add org-roam-doctor checkers for ROAM_* properties
  • #664 Add support for shelling out to rg and find in org-roam--list-files
  • #679, #683 Building of the graph now happens in a separate process

Bugfixes

  • #714 No longer print citelinks in backlinks buffer if there is no ROAM_KEY property or org-ref is not installed
  • #759, #760 Tags are only added to the tags table if there are actually tags present
  • #700, #733 Allow symlinks within the org-roam directory

1.1.1 (2020-05-18)

In this release, we added two new features:

  1. org-roam-doctor: a linting system that helps you discover possible problems with your Org-roam files. This is in the spirit of keeping notes in top quality.
  2. A tagging system: one can now use sub-directories, and the #+roam_tags key add additional meta data to notes. For more information, see here.

As usual, this release comes with a multitude of bug-fixes and refactorings.

Breaking Changes

  • #523 remove org-roam-completion-fuzzy-match in favor of using completion mechanism's configuration options directly
  • #547 Deprecate org-roam-db--maybe-update, in favour of org-roam-db--update-maybe
  • #604 Deprecate org-roam-title-include-subdirs, org-roam-title-subdir-format org-roam-title-subdir-separator, for a more general tagging system built on subdirectories

Bugfixes

  • #509 fix backup files being tracked in database
  • #509 fix external org files being tracked in database
  • #537 quote graphviz node and edge configuration options to allow multi-word configurations
  • #545 fix org-roam--extract-links to ensure that multiple citations (cite:key1,key2) are split correctly
  • #547 Fix unlinked citations
  • #660 fix rename-file advice not working for renaming to directories
  • #660 fix links breaking within file on file movement

Features

  • #538 Optionally use text in first headline as title
  • #553 Add prefix argument to org-roam-db-build-cache for forcing rebuilds
  • #560 Apply 'error face to distinguish broken links
  • #570 Add org-roam-doctor to diagnose org-roam files
  • #625 Add org-roam-title-sources to control how titles are retrieved within notes
  • #604 Add a tagging system. org-roam-tag-sources controls how tags are retrieved from notes

Internal Changes

  • #547 Added type column to the refs table
  • #606 Added org-roam-dev.el for developer coding standards
  • #622 Online documentation now points to the Org-based documentation

1.1.0 (2020-04-21)

To the average user, this release is mainly a bugfix release with additional options to customize. However, the changes made to the source is significant. Most notably, in this release:

  1. The codebase has been modularized into separate files, to ease future maintenance and adding of new features (mainly by @progfolio). Because of these changes, we had to rename many functions and variables: the old names are kept for backwards compatibility, but you are encouraged to use the new function names. You'll receive a warning when you're calling the function with its obsolete name.
  2. @kljohann did some fantastic work on graph generation: allowing building images for connected components within the graph up to a specified distance
  3. We also started supporting org-ref natively: cite links now show up in both the graph and the org-roam buffer.

In the coming months, you can expect work on bigger projects (e.g. revamping the org-roam buffer).

Breaking Changes

  • #385 Deprecate org-roam-graph-node-shape in favour of org-roam-graph-node-extra-config.
  • #473 Deprecate org-roam-date-filename-format and org-roam-date-title-format, in favour of org-roam-dailies-capture-templates.
