#+TITLE: Emacs Configuration
#+AUTHOR: Marc Pohling

* Personal Information

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq user-full-name "Marc Pohling"
       user-mail-address "marc.pohling@googlemail.com")
#+end_src

* Stuff to add / to fix
  - smartparens
    a sane default configuration for navigation, manipulation etc. is still necessary
  - Spaceline / Powerline or similar
    I want a pretty status bar!
  - Markdown mode
    There might be more than one package for this.
  - Git gutter:
    Do some configuration to make it useful (see given source link in the [[*Git][Section]] of gutter)
    Maybe only enable it for modes where it is likely I use git?
  - Some webmode stuff


* Update config in a running config
Two options:
  - reload the open file: M-x load-file, then press twice to accept
    the default filename, which is the currently opened
  - Point at the end of any sexp and press C-x C-e


* Customize settings

Move the customize settings to its own file, instead of saving
customize settings in [[file:init.el][init.el]].

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq custom-file (expand-file-name "custom.el" user-emacs-directory))
 (load custom-file)
#+end_src

Keep the .emacs.d clean by moving user files into separate directories.
- user-local: directory for machine specific files
- user-global: directory for files which work on any machine

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defvar PATH_USER_LOCAL (expand-file-name "~/.emacs.d/user-local/"))
(defvar PATH_USER_GLOBAL (expand-file-name "~/.emacs.d/user-global/"))
(setq bookmark-default-file (concat PATH_USER_LOCAL "bookmarks")) ;"~/.emacs.d/user-dir/bookmarks")
#+END_SRC


* Theme
** Font

Don't add the font in the work environment, which I am logged in as POH

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (unless (string-equal user-login-name "POH")
   (set-face-attribute 'default nil :font "Hack-12")
 )
#+end_src

** Material Theme
The [[https://github.com/cpaulik/emacs-material-theme][Material Theme]] comes in a dark and a light variant. Not too dark
to be strenious though.
b
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (use-package material-theme
     :if (window-system)
     :defer t
     :ensure t
;;     :init
;;     (load-theme 'material t)
 )
#+end_src
** Apropospriate Theme
Variants dark and light

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (use-package apropospriate-theme
     :if (window-system)
     :defer t
     :ensure t
     :init
     (load-theme 'apropospriate-dark t)
 )
#+end_src


* Sane defaults
Sources for this section include [[https://github.com/magnars/.emacs.d/blob/master/settings/sane-defaults.el][Magnars Sveen]] and [[http://pages.sachachua.com/.emacs.d/Sacha.html][Sacha Chua]]

These functions are useful. Activate them.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (put 'downcase-region 'disabled nil)
 (put 'upcase-region 'disabled nil)
 (put 'narrow-to-region 'disabled nil)
 (put 'dired-find-alternate-file 'disabled nil)
#+end_src

Answering just 'y' or 'n' should be enough.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (defalias 'yes-or-no-p 'y-or-n-p)
#+end_src

Keep all backup and auto-save files in one directory

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq backup-directory-alist `((".*" . ,temporary-file-directory)))
(setq auto-save-file-name-transforms `((".*" ,temporary-file-directory)))
#+end_src

UTF-8 please
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq locale-coding-system 'utf-8)
 (set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)
 (set-keyboard-coding-system 'utf-8)
 (set-selection-coding-system 'utf-8)
 (prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
#+end_src

Avoid tabs in place of multiple spaces (they look bad in TeX)
and show empty lines
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil)
 (setq-default indicate-empty-lines t)
#+end_src

Turn off blinking cursor
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (blink-cursor-mode -1)
#+end_src

Don't count two spaces after a period as the end of a sentence.
Just one space is needed
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq sentence-end-double-space nil)
#+end_src

Delete the region when typing, just like as we expect nowadays.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (delete-selection-mode t)
#+end_src

Auto-indent when pressing RET, just new-line when C-j
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (define-key global-map (kbd "RET") 'newline-and-indent)
 (define-key global-map (kbd "C-j") 'newline)

#+end_src

Various stuff
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (show-paren-mode t)
 (column-number-mode t)
 (setq uniquify-buffer-name-style 'forward)
#+end_src


* Prettier Line Wraps
  By default there is no line wrapping. M-q actually modifies the buffer, which might not be wanted.
  So: enable visual wrapping and keep indentation if there are any.

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
   (global-visual-line-mode)
   (diminish 'visual-line-mode)
   (use-package adaptive-wrap
     :ensure t
     :init
     (when (fboundp 'adaptive-wrap-prefix-mode)
       (defun my-activate-adaptive-wrap-prefix-mode ()
         "Toggle `visual-line-mode' and `adaptive-wrap-prefix-mode' simultaneously."
         (adaptive-wrap-prefix-mode (if visual-line-mode 1 -1)))
       (add-hook 'visual-line-mode-hook 'my-activate-adaptive-wrap-prefix-mode))
   )
  #+end_src


* List buffers
Ibuffer is the improved version of list-buffers.
Make ibuffer the default buffer lister. [[http://ergoemacs.org/emacs/emacs_buffer_management.html][Source]]
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (defalias 'list-buffers 'ibuffer)
#+end_src

Also auto refresh dired, but be quiet about it. [[http://whattheemacsd.com/sane-defaults.el-01.html][Source]]
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (add-hook 'dired-mode-hook 'auto-revert-mode)
 (setq global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers t)
 (setq auto-revert-verbose nil)
#+end_src


* Org Mode
** Installation
Although org mode ships with Emacs, the latest version can be installed externally. The configuration here follows the [[http://orgmode.org/elpa.html][Org mode ELPA Installation instructions.]]
Added a hook to complete org functions, company-capf is necessary for this


#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (use-package org
     :ensure org-plus-contrib
     :init
     (add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'company/org-mode-hook)
 )
#+end_src

To avoid problems executing source blocks out of the box. [[https://emacs.stackexchange.com/a/28604][Others have the same problem, too]]. The solution is to remove the .elc files form the package directory:

#+begin_src sh:
 var ORG_DIR=(let* ((org-v (cadr (split-string (org-version nil t) "@"))) (len (length org-v))) (substring org-v 1 (- len 2)))
 rm ${ORG_DIR}/*.elc
#+end_src

*** Org key bindings
Set up some global key bindings that integrate with Org mode features

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (bind-key "C-c l" 'org-store-link)
 (bind-key "C-c c" 'org-capture)
 (bind-key "C-c a" 'org-agenda)
#+end_src

Org overwrites RET and C-j, so I need to disable the rebinds
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "RET") nil) ;;org-return
 (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-j") nil) ;;org-return-indent
#+end_src

*** Org agenda
For a more detailed example [[https://github.com/sachac/.emacs.d/blob/83d21e473368adb1f63e582a6595450fcd0e787c/Sacha.org#org-agenda][see here]].

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq org-agenda-files
     (delq nil
         (mapcar (lambda (x) (and (file-exists-p x) x))
                 '("~/Archiv/Dokumente/Agenda"))
     )
 )
#+end_src

*** Org capture
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (bind-key "C-c c" 'org-capture)
 (setq org-default-notes-file "~/Archiv/Dokumente/Notizen/notes.org")
#+end_src

** Org Setup
Speed commands are a nice and quick way to perform certain actions while at the beginning of a heading. It's not activated by default.

See the doc for speed keys by checking out the documentation for speed keys in Org mode.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq org-use-speed-commands t)
 (setq org-image-actual-width 550)
 (setq org-highlight-latex-and-related '(latex script entities))
#+end_src

Hide emphasis markup (e.g. / ... / for italics, etc.)

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-hide-emphasis-markers t)
#+end_src


Setting some environment paths

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (if (string-equal user-login-name "POH")
     (progn
       (defvar PATH_ORG_FILES   "p:/Eigene Dateien/Notizen/")
       (defvar PATH_ORG_JOURNAL "p:/Eigene Dateien/Notizen/Journal/")
       (defvar PATH_START       "p:/Eigene Dateien/Notizen/"))
 )
#+end_src



Sort org agenda by deadline and priority

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq org-agenda-sorting-strategy
       (quote
        ((agenda deadline-up priority-down)
         (todo priority-down category-keep)
         (tags priority-down category-keep)
         (search category-keep)))
 )
#+end_src

Custom todo-keywords, depending on environment

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (if (string-equal user-login-name "POH")
     (setq org-todo-keywords
           '((sequence "OPEN" "TODO" "UNCLEAR" "|" "DONE" "IMPOSSIBLE")))
 )
#+end_src

Set locations of some org files

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (if (string-equal user-login-name "POH")
     (progn
       (setq org-default-notes-file (concat PATH_ORG_FILES "notes.org"))
        (setq org-agenda-files (list(concat PATH_ORG_FILES "notes.org")
                                    (concat PATH_ORG_FILES "projects.org")
                                    (concat PATH_ORG_FILES "todo.org"))))
 )
(setq org-id-locations-file (concat PATH_USER_LOCAL ".org-id-locations"))
#+end_src

Work specific org-capture-templates

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (if (string-equal user-login-name "POH")
     (setq org-capture-templates
           '(("t" "todo" entry (file (concat PATH_ORG_FILES "todo.org"))
              "** TODO %\\n%u\n%a\n")
             ("n" "note" entry (file org-default-notes-file))
             ("p" "project" entry (file (concat PATH_ORG_FILES "projects.org"))
              "** OPEN %?\n%u\n** Beschreibung\n** Zu erledigen\n*** \n** Verlauf\n***" :clock-in t :clock-resume t)
             ("u" "Unterbrechung" entry (file org-default-notes-file)
              "* Unterbrechnung durch %? :Unterbrechung:\n%t" :clock-in t :clock-resume t)))
 )
#+end_src

Customize the org agenda

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (defun my-org-skip-subtree-if-priority (priority)
   "Skip an agenda subtree if it has a priority of PRIORITY.

    PRIORITY may be one of the characters ?A, ?B, or ?C."
   (let ((subtree-end (save-excursion (org-end-of-subtree t)))
         (pri-value (* 1000 (- org-lowest-priority priority)))
         (pri-current (org-get-priority (thing-at-point 'line t))))
     (if (= pri-value pri-current)
         subtree-end
       nil)))

 (setq org-agenda-custom-commands
       '(("c" "Simple agenda view"
          ((tags "PRIORITY=\"A\""
                 ((org-agenda-skip-function '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'todo 'done))
                  (org-agenda-overriding-header "Hohe Priorität:")))
           (agenda ""
                   ((org-agenda-span 7)
                    (org-agenda-start-on-weekday nil)
                    (org-agenda-overriding-header "Nächsten 7 Tage:")))
           (alltodo ""
                    ((org-agenda-skip-function '(or (my-org-skip-subtree-if-priority ?A)
                                                    (org-agenda-skip-if nil '(scheduled deadline))))
                    (org-agenda-overriding-header "Sonstige Aufgaben:"))))))
 )
#+end_src

** Org tags
The default value is -77, which is weird for smaller width windows. I'd rather have the tags align horizontally with the header.
45 is a good column number to do that.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq org-tags-column 45)
#+end_src


** Org babel languages

This code block is linux specific. Loading languages which aren't available seems to be a problem
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (cond ((eq system-type 'gnu/linux)
  (org-babel-do-load-languages
 'org-babel-load-languages
   '(

#+end_src

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (defun my-org-confirm-babel-evaluate (lang body)
     "Do not confirm evaluation for these languages."
     (not (or (string= lang "beancount")
              (string= lang "C")

              (string= lang "sqlite"))))
 (setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate 'my-org-confirm-babel-evaluate)
#+end_src

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

(add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'org-display-inline-images)
#+end_src


** Org babel/source blocks
I like to have source blocks properly syntax highlighted and with the editing popup window staying within the same window so all the windows don't jump around. Also, having the top and bottom trailing lines in the block is a waste of space, so we can remove them

I noticed that fontification doesn't work with markdown mode when the block is indented after editing it in the org src buffer - the leading #s for headers don't get fontified properly because they apppear as Org comments. Setting ~org-src-preserve-identation~ makes things consistent as it doesn't pad source blocks with leading spaces

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (setq org-src-fontify-natively t
       org-src-window-setup 'current-window
       org-src-strip-leading-and-trailing-blank-lines t
       org-src-preserve-indentation t
       org-src-tab-acts-natively t)
#+end_src



* which-key
Greatly increases discovery of functions!
Click [[https://github.com/justbur/emacs-which-key][here]] for source and more info.
Info in Emacs: M-x customize-group which-key

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

* ivy / counsel / swiper

Flx is required for fuzzy-matching
Is it really necessary?
begin_src emacs-lisp
 (use-package flx)

Ivy displays a window with suggestions for hotkeys and M-x

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

  For latex-preview-pane a patch might be necessary (as of 2017-10), see the issue [[https://github.com/jsinglet/latex-preview-pane/issues/37][here]]
  Update 2018-03: It seems to work without this patch. I will keep it here in case something breaks again.

* Emails
  Currently following tools are required:
  - notmuch (edit, read, tag, delete emails)
  - isync /mbsync (fetch or sync emails)

  After setting up mbsync, notmuch must be configured. Execute "notmuch" from the command line to launch the setup wizard. After it, "notmuch new" to create a new database, which will index the available local e-mails.

  TODO:
  - setup of mbsync on linux
  - setup of notmuch on linux
  - shell script for installation of isync and notmuch
  - more config for notmuch?
  - hydra for notmuch?
  - maybe org-notmuch?
  - some way to refresh the notmuch db before I run notmuch?
  #+begin_src emacs-lisp

* Personal Finances
  I picked ledger for my personal accounting and will test if it's beneficial over gnucash.
  ..and don't activate the modules at work.

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
(unless (string-equal user-login-name "POH")
  (use-package ledger-mode

  #+end_src

  Ok, maybe beancount is better.
  Since there is no debian package, it is an option to install it via pip.
  I picked /opt for the installation path

  #+begin_src shell
sudo su
cd /opt
python3 -m venv beancount
source ./beancount/bin/activate
pip3 install wheel
pip3 install beancount
deactivate
  #+end_src

  When using beancount, it will automatically pick the created virtual environment.

  Activate the beancount mode

  #+begin_src emacs-lisp
(unless (string-equal user-login-name "POH")
;;  (add-to-list 'package-archives
;;               '("beancount" . "/opt/beancount/elisp") t)
;  (use-package beancount

;;    :ensure t
;    :mode ("\\.beancount$" . beancount-mode)
  (load "/home/marc/.emacs.d/elisp/beancount-mode.el") ; somehow load-path in use-package doesn't work

  For a nice frontend fava seems nice
  #+begin_src shell
sudo su
cd /opt
python3 -m venv vava
source ./vava/bin/activate
pip3 install wheel
pip3 install fava
deactivate
  #+end_src

  Start fava with
  #+begin_src shell
  fava my_file.beancount
  #+end_src

  It is accessable on this URL: [[http://127.0.0.1:5000][Fava]]

** Git
   [[https://magit.vc/manual/magit/index.html][Link]]
   I want to do git stuff here, not in a separate terminal window

   Little crashcourse in magit:
   - magit-init to init a git project
   - magit-status (C-x g) to call the status window

   in status buffer:
   - s   stage files
   - u   unstage files
   - U   unstage all files
   - a   apply changed to staging
   - c c commit (type commit message, then C-c C-c to commit)
   - b b switch to another branch
   - P u git push
   - F u git pull

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
    (use-package magit

#+end_src

For a nicer suggestion box: company-box ([[https://github.com/sebastiencs/company-box][Source]])
It is only available for emacs 26 and higher.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

*** Company backend hooks

Backend configuration for python-mode

Common backends are:
- company-files:    files & directory
- company-keywords: keywords
- company-capf:     ??
- company-abbrev:   ??
- company-dabbrev:  dynamic abbreviations
- company-ispell:   ??

*** Misc Company packages

Addon to sort suggestions by usage

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

#+end_src

Get a popup with documentation of the completion candidate.
For the popups the package pos-tip.el is used and automatically installed.
[[https://github.com/expez/company-quickhelp][Company Quickhelp]]
[[https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/PosTip][See here for Pos-Tip details]]

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (use-package company-quickhelp
     :ensure t
     :after company
     :config
     (company-quickhelp-mode 1)
 )
#+end_src

Maybe add [[https://github.com/hlissner/emacs-company-dict][company-dict]]? It's a dictionary based on major modes, plus it has Yasnippet integration.

** Projectile
   Brings search functions on project level

   #+begin_src emacs-lisp
(use-package projectile
  :ensure t
  :defer t
  :bind
  (("C-c p p" . projectile-switch-project)
   ("C-c p s s" . projectile-ag))

    )
   #+end_src
** Lisp

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

  :ensure t
  :init
  (define-key emacs-lisp-mode-map (kbd "C-c e") 'macrostep-expand)
  (define-key emacs-lisp-mode-map (kbd "C-c c") 'macrostep-collapse))
#+end_src

** Python

Systemwide following packages need to be installed:
- venv

The virtual environments need to have following modules installed:
- jedi
- epc
- pylint

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (use-package flycheck
     :ensure t
     :diminish flycheck-mode " ✓"
     :init
     (setq flycheck-emacs-lisp-load-path 'inherit)

 )
#+end_src


Automatically start python-mode when opening a .py-file.
Not sure if python.el is better than python-mode.el.
See [[https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy/issues/887][here]] for info about ~python-shell-completion-native-enable~.
The custom function is to run inferiour processes (do I really need that?), see [[https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/16361/how-to-automatically-run-inferior-process-when-loading-major-mode][here]].

Also limit the completion backends to those which make sense in Python.
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (use-package python
     :mode ("\\.py\\'" . python-mode)
     :interpreter ("python" . python-mode)
     :init
     (add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'company/python-mode-hook)
     :config
     (setq python-shell-completion-native-enable nil)
 )
#+end_src


Jedi is a backend for python autocompletion and needs to be installed on the server:
- pip install jedi
Code checks need to be installed, too:
- pip install flake8

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (use-package company-jedi
     :defer t
;;     :after company
     :ensure t
     :config
     (setq jedi:environment-virtualenv (list (expand-file-name "~/Archiv/Programmierprojekte/Python/virtualenv/")))
     (setq jedi:python-environment-directory (list (expand-file-name "~/Archiv/Programmierprojekte/Python/virtualenv/")))
     (add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'jedi:setup)
     (setq jedi:complete-on-dot t)
     (setq jedi:use-shortcuts t)
;;     (add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'company/python-mode-hook)
 )
#+end_src

A wrapper to handle virtual environments.
I strongly recommend to install virtual environments on the terminal, not through this wrapper, but changing venvs is fine.

TODO: automatically start an inferior python process or switch to it if already created

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
 (use-package pyvenv
     :ensure t

         (setq jedi:server-args '("--log-traceback")))

I want Emacs to automatically start the proper virtual environment.
Required is a .python-version file with, content in the first line being /path/to/virtualenv/
[[https://github.com/marcwebbie/auto-virtualenv][Github source]]

Depends on pyvenv

#+begin_src emacs-lisp

* Treemacs
  A file manager comparable to neotree.
  [[https://github.com/Alexander-Miller/treemacs][Github]]

  It has some requirements, which gets used here anyway:
  - ace-window
  - hydra
  - projectile
  - python

  I copied the configuration example from the github site.
  No idea what this executable-find is about.
