All org-roam related information will now be stored in the database. Henceforth, the cache needs to be built synchronously once (via `M-x org-roam-build-cache`), which is then incrementally updated.

## Synopsis
|
|
|
|
Org-roam is a rudimentary [Roam][roamresearch] replica built around
|
|
the all-powerful [Org-mode][org].
|
|
|
|
Like Roam, Org-roam offers a powerful and effortless non-hierarchical
|
|
note-taking approach. With Org-roam, notes flow naturally, making
|
|
note-taking fun and easy. Org-roam *enables* a note-taking workflow that
|
|
is not fluid with vanilla Org-mode (more in [this blog
|
|
post](https://blog.jethro.dev/posts/how_to_take_smart_notes_org/)).
|
|
|
|
|
|
The goal of the project is to implement core features of Roam around
|
|
Org-mode, and eventually introduce features enabled by the Emacs
|
|
ecosystem.
|
|
|
|
Visit [the documentation
|
|
page](https://org-roam.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) for a tutorial and
|
|
more links.
|
|
|
|
As of February 2020, it is in a very early stage of development.
|
|
|
|
## A Preview
|
|
|
|
Here's a screenshot of `org-roam`. The `org-roam` buffer shows
|
|
backlinks for the active org buffer in the left window, as well as the
|
|
surrounding content in the backlink file. The database is built once,
|
|
and updated incrementally. The graph is generated from the link
|
|
structure, and can be used to navigate to the respective files.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
The recommended method is using use-package and straight, or a similar package manager.
|
|
|
|
```emacs-lisp
|
|
(use-package org-roam
|
|
:hook
|
|
(after-init . org-roam-mode)
|
|
:straight (:host github :repo "jethrokuan/org-roam" :branch "develop")
|
|
:custom
|
|
(org-roam-directory "/path/to/org-files/")
|
|
:bind (:map org-roam-mode-map
|
|
(("C-c n l" . org-roam)
|
|
("C-c n f" . org-roam-find-file)
|
|
("C-c n g" . org-roam-show-graph))
|
|
:map org-mode-map
|
|
(("C-c n i" . org-roam-insert))))
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For more detailed installation instructions (including instructions for
|
|
Spacemacs users), please see [the installation
|
|
