* Package Management
** MELPA
   Let's be real here, all the good stuff's on MELPA.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (require 'package)
     (add-to-list 'package-archives
                  '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/"))
   #+end_src

   We then need to run [[help:package-initialize][package-initialize]] to load and activate
   packages. The documentation advises doing this early in
   configuration.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (package-initialize)
   #+end_src

** =use-package=
   The rest of this config grabs packages via =use-package=, so that
   needs to be installed:

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (when (not (package-installed-p 'use-package))
       (package-refresh-contents)
       (package-install 'use-package))
   #+end_src

   The wanted behaviour for =use-package= here is to ensure all used
   packages are present.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (require 'use-package-ensure)
     (setq use-package-always-ensure t)
   #+end_src

* UI
  The start-up message gets pretty annoying, so disable that.

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (setq inhibit-startup-screen t)
  #+end_src

  I like a little more line spacing than default.

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (setq-default line-spacing 0.2)
  #+end_src

  Also, the menu-, tool- and scroll-bar are ugly, take up space and I
  don't use them.

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (menu-bar-mode -1)
    (tool-bar-mode -1)
    (scroll-bar-mode -1)
  #+end_src

  It's nice to have an inverse of =C-x o= for switching between
  windows. =other-window=, the function that =C-x o= is bound to,
  takes an argument =COUNT= that determines how many windows it skips
  forwards so we can simply pass -1 to =other-window= in a lambda and
  bind to that:

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (global-set-key (kbd "C-x O")
                    (lambda ()
                      (interactive)
                      (other-window -1)))
  #+end_src

** Colour Scheme
   Currently using =spacemacs-theme='s light variant, but I prefer a pure
   white background to the off-white it has by default.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package spacemacs-theme
       :defer t)
     (setq spacemacs-theme-custom-colors
           '((bg1 . "#ffffff")
             (comment-bg . "#ffffff")))
     (load-theme 'spacemacs-light t)
   #+end_src

* Autocompletion
  Enable =company-mode= globally, and hook it into =completion-at-point-functions=.

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (use-package company
      :config
      (add-hook 'after-init-hook 'global-company-mode)
      (add-to-list 'company-backends 'company-capf))
  #+end_src

  And enable =ido-mode= everywhere, with flexible matching.

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (use-package ido
      :config
      (setq ido-enable-flex-matching t)
      (add-hook 'after-init-hook
                (lambda ()
                  (ido-everywhere)
                  (ido-mode t))))
  #+end_src

* Org
  I use a couple non-standard bits and pieces, but not a whole
  bunch. I really like the =<s= to insert a source block thing (which
  was deprecated); =org-tempo= brings that back.

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (use-package org
      :config
      (require 'org-tempo))
  #+end_src

  A keybinding to add a new heading is super useful

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (add-hook 'org-mode-hook
              (lambda ()
                (define-key org-mode-map
                  (kbd "<C-M-return>")
                  'org-insert-heading-after-current)))
  #+end_src

  Org is nice for scratch space

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (setq initial-major-mode 'org-mode)
    (setq initial-scratch-message "")
  #+end_src

** Source Blocks
   Pressing tab inside a source block should indent appropriately for its
   language.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (setq org-src-tab-acts-natively t)
   #+end_src

   =babel= lets us evaluate Org documents containing source blocks!
   I've left the enabling of this for most languages to the section
   for that language, but I'll add Emacs Lisp and shell here.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (org-babel-do-load-languages
      'org-babel-load-languages
      '((emacs-lisp . t)
        (shell . t)))
   #+end_src

   By default trying to execute a source block prompts you, which is
   super annoying since I'm realistically not going to try to run any
   code from Org documents I haven't written, so that needs
   disabling. You can do that by setting [[help:org-confirm-babel-evaluate][org-confirm-babel-evaluate]] to
   =nil=.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate nil)
   #+end_src

   Another annoying thing that happens by default is the clobbering of
   the window layout when you open a source block. You can change that
   by setting [[help:org-src-window-setup][org-src-window-setup]].

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (setq org-src-window-setup 'split-window-below)
   #+end_src

*** Asyncronous Execution
    =ob-async= makes source blocks with the ~:async~ keyword execute
    asyncronously, super handy for long-running snippets etc.

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package ob-async)
    #+end_src

** Exporting
   I very rarely want a table of contents, as most of my org documents
   are pretty short.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (setq org-export-with-toc nil)
   #+end_src

*** HTML
	=htmlize= is needed for decent HTML exporting, but there is no need
	for all that stuff at the bottom.

	#+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package htmlize)
      (setq org-html-postamble nil)
	#+end_src

*** LaTeX
	Use =minted= (LaTeX package) to do syntax highlighting in code blocks:

	#+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (add-to-list 'org-latex-packages-alist '("" "minted"))
      (setq org-latex-listings 'minted)
	#+end_src

	=minted= actually calls =pygments= through the shell, which =pdflatex=
	doesn't like; you have to tell it not to worry, and that everything is
	going to be OK.

	#+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (setq org-latex-pdf-process
            '("xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"
              "xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"
              "xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"))
	#+end_src

** Roam
   A Zettelkasten in org mode? Yes please. It does need =sqlite3=
   installed outside of Emacs land.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package org-roam)
   #+end_src

   As stated in [[info:org-roam#Getting Started][the manual]], org-roam needs to know where notes are
   stored. I'm going to go with =~/org/zet=, as its nice having all
   org documents under =~/org=, but also we need to distinguish
   zettels from other org stuff.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (make-directory "~/org/zet" t)
     (setq org-roam-directory "~/org/zet")
   #+end_src

   And, also as recommended, we'll start [[help:org-roam-mode][org-roam-mode]] after init:

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (add-hook 'after-init-hook 'org-roam-mode)
   #+end_src

   Hook it into Ido.

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (setq org-roam-completion-system 'ido)
    #+end_src

** Default Applications
   It's all fun and games until =C-c C-e h o= opens the source code.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (setq org-file-apps
           '(("html" . "firefox %s")
             (auto-mode . emacs)))
   #+end_src

** Workflow States
   I like to have =DOING= and =DEFERRED= as workflow states as well as
   the standard =TODO= and =DONE=, which can be added by setting
   [[help:org-todo-keywords][org-todo-keywords]]:

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (setq org-todo-keywords
           '((sequence "TODO" "DOING" "|" "DONE" "DEFERRED")))
   #+end_src

   The ="|"= separates /needs further action/ states (before it) from
   /no further action needed/ states (after it).

* Version Control
** Git
   =magit= is truly a wonderful creation! Only deviations from defaults
   here are a keybinding for =magit-status= and a maximum length for the
   summary line of commit messages (after which the excess is
   highlighted).

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package magit
       :bind
       ("C-x g" . magit-status)
       :config
       (setq git-commit-summary-max-length 72))
   #+end_src

* Language Integrations
** Generic
   Generally, 8-character-wide tabs are not my thing.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (setq-default tab-width 4)
     (setq-default basic-offset 4)
   #+end_src

   And generally indenting with spaces is more common, so make that the default:

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil)
   #+end_src

*** Language Server Protocol
    LSP seems to be the way forward in terms of IDE-like features in
    Emacs; grab =lsp-mode= and enable =lsp-deferred=:

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package lsp-mode
        :init (setq lsp-keymap-prefix "C-c l")
        :commands (lsp lsp-deferred))
    #+end_src

    =lsp-deferred= means that the LSP server will only be started once
    a buffer is actually opened, which makes more sense to me.

    Also going to give =lsp-ui= a shot, which displays a bunch of
    information from the language server in the buffer. It looks like
    it could be a bit much but we'll see.

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package lsp-ui :commands lsp-ui-mode)
    #+end_src

    Finally, to enable Ido integration:

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (require 'lsp-ido)
    #+end_src

** C
   For C there is =clangd= implementing LSP. Assuming that's installed
   and on the =PATH=, we can just hook =lsp-mode= into the default
   mode and there will be much rejoicing.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (add-hook 'c-mode-hook #'lsp-deferred)
   #+end_src

** Haskell
   My workflow with Haskell is very REPL-based, so I always want
   =interactive-haskell-mode= on.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package haskell-mode)
     (require 'haskell-interactive-mode)
     (add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook 'interactive-haskell-mode)
   #+end_src

   And, of course, that REPL needs to be taking advantage of parallelism!

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (require 'haskell-process)
     (set-variable 'haskell-process-args-ghci
                   '("-threaded" "+RTS" "-N8" "-RTS"))
   #+end_src

** Idris
   The only thing to change from the defaults here is to add a more
   convenient way to case-split.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package idris-mode)
     (add-hook 'idris-mode-hook
               (lambda ()
                 (define-key idris-mode-map (kbd "C-c SPC")
                   'idris-case-split)))
   #+end_src

** Rust
   I never really use Rust without Cargo, so always turn on the minor
   mode for Cargo in Rust buffers.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package rust-mode)
     (use-package cargo)
     (add-hook 'rust-mode-hook 'cargo-minor-mode)
   #+end_src

** Lisps
*** Common Lisp
    Use SLIME and Quicklisp for Common Lisp (SBCL).

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package slime)
      (setq inferior-lisp-program "sbcl")
      (global-set-key (kbd "C-c s") 'slime-selector)
      (load (expand-file-name "~/quicklisp/slime-helper.el"))
    #+end_src

    This assumes that SBCL and Quicklisp, along with Quicklisp's SLIME
    helper, are installed. Once SBCL is installed, Quicklisp and its
    SLIME helper can be installed by grabbing [[https://beta.quicklisp.org/quicklisp.lisp][the installer]] and
    loading it with SBCL.

    #+begin_src shell :tangle no
      curl -O https://beta.quicklisp.org/quicklisp.lisp
      sbcl --load quicklisp.lisp
    #+end_src

    That will open a REPL with the =quicklisp-quickstart= system
    loaded. At that REPL, run:

    #+begin_src common-lisp :tangle no
      (quicklisp-quickstart:install)
      (ql:add-to-init-file)
      (ql:quickload "quicklisp-slime-helper")
    #+end_src

**** Source blocks
     To enable execution of CL source blocks in Org mode, add an item
     to [[help:org-babel-load-languages][org-babel-load-languages]].

     #+begin_src emacs-lisp
       (org-babel-do-load-languages
        'org-babel-load-languages
        '((lisp . t)))
     #+end_src

*** Paredit
    =paredit= is generally very useful for balancing parenthesis so we
    want that turned on for all the lisps. Additionally, it's nice to have
    an entire expression highlighted when the cursor is on one of its
    enclosing parens.

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package paredit)
      (setq lispy-mode-hooks
            '(emacs-lisp-mode-hook
              lisp-mode-hook
              racket-mode-hook
              scheme-mode-hook
              slime-repl-mode-hook))
      (dolist (hook lispy-mode-hooks)
        (add-hook hook (lambda ()
                         (setq show-paren-style 'expression)
                         (paredit-mode))))
    #+end_src

*** Scheme and Racket
    [[https://www.nongnu.org/geiser/][Geiser]] is a pretty complete collection of Scheme things for
    Emacs. Only change from the defaults is to open the REPL in the
    current window instead of creating a new one.

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package geiser
        :config
        (setq geiser-repl-use-other-window nil))
    #+end_src

    I commonly use Chez, Guile and Racket so we want the packages for those:

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package geiser-chez)
      (use-package geiser-guile)
      (use-package geiser-racket)
    #+end_src

** YAML
   I don't really like YAML if I'm honest, but it's used a lot so...

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package yaml-mode)
   #+end_src

** Javascript
   The first bit of this setup (=js2-mode=, =js2-refactor= and
   =xref-js2=) is essentially copied from [[https://emacs.cafe/emacs/javascript/setup/2017/04/23/emacs-setup-javascript.html][this Emacs cafe post]].

   First of all we want to grab =js2-mode= and enable it for
   javascript buffers. It extends the default =js-mode= and builds an
   AST which can be used by other packages.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package js2-mode)
     (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.js\\'" . js2-mode))
   #+end_src


*** Refactoring
    =js2-refactor= provides refactoring tools based of said AST, so
    enable that and its keybindings:

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package js2-refactor)
      (add-hook 'js2-mode-hook #'js2-refactor-mode)
      (js2r-add-keybindings-with-prefix "C-c C-r")
    #+end_src

    It provides a kill function with nice semantics for Javascript --
    we definitely want that instead of the generic kill.

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (define-key js2-mode-map (kbd "C-k") #'js2r-kill)
    #+end_src

*** Find references / jump to definition
    Then we get to =xref-js2=, which adds stuff for jumping to
    references and definitions (uses the =ag= tool, so that must be
    installed in the environment):

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package xref-js2)
    #+end_src

    =js-mode= binds =M-.=, which conflicts with =xref-js2= so we need to unbind that:

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (define-key js-mode-map (kbd "M-.") nil)
    #+end_src

    And hook it up to =js2-mode=:

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (add-hook 'js2-mode-hook (lambda ()
        (add-hook 'xref-backend-functions #'xref-js2-xref-backend nil t)))
    #+end_src

*** Using local tools from NPM
    To use tools locally by NPM, there is =add-node-modules-path=:

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package add-node-modules-path)
      (eval-after-load 'js2-mode
        '(add-hook 'js2-mode-hook #'add-node-modules-path))
    #+end_src

*** Autoformatting
    [[https://prettier.io/][Prettier]] seems low-effort to set up :D

    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
      (use-package prettier-js)
      (add-hook 'js2-mode-hook 'prettier-js-mode)
    #+end_src

** Prolog
   =prolog-mode= comes with Emacs, but .pl files are assumed to be
   Perl (which I never use, it scares me), so we need to change that.

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.pl\\'" . prolog-mode))
   #+end_src

** Java
   [[https://github.com/jdee-emacs/jdee][JDEE]] provides a whole bunch of tooling for Java. It requires the
   [[https://github.com/jdee-emacs/jdee-server][JDEE server]] to work properly, which has to be built seperately
   (this requires JDK and Maven):

   #+begin_src shell :tangle no
     cd ~/src
     git clone https://github.com/jdee-emacs/jdee-server.git
     cd jdee-server
     mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true package
   #+end_src

   With that built, we can install JDEE, pointing at the built server:

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package jdee
       :config
       (setq jdee-server-dir "~/src/jdee-server/target"))
   #+end_src

** Dockerfiles
   Grab =dockerfile-mode= for syntax highlighting etc in Dockerfiles:

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
     (use-package dockerfile-mode)
   #+end_src
