Repository Details

An Emacs+Nix IDE

bauer: an Emacs+Nix IDE

This ORG-mode file generates an Emacs configuration. I am calling it an Emacs+Nix IDE. That is, the Emacs configuration is integrated with hardcoded Nix store paths. This provides a kind of functional Emacs configuration. The integration between Emacs & Nix comes with lots of useful side effects. The raw Org file can always be downloaded here. You can create pull requests & issues on the GitHub repo. You can access my website at https://matthewbauer.us.

Usage

Installing/upgrading

This is the script that I use to setup all of my new machines but it’s portable enough for anyone to use.

To install, just run this command from your shell:

curl https://matthewbauer.us/bauer/install | sh

Once it’s installed, you can open Emacs at any time with this command:

"$HOME/.nix-profile/bin/run"

If you don’t like it, it’s also very easy to uninstall. Just run:

nix-env -e bauer
nix-collect-garbage -d

Developing

After you’ve installed it, it’s easy to make changes. By default, the configuration lives in ~/.local/share/bauer. To make changes just follow this process,

cd ~/.local/share/bauer
nix-build
./result/run README.org

The last line will spawn an Emacs frame in the Git repo. Anything in that file can be change. Once you’ve made a change, just run M-x dev-restart to rebuild the configuration & restart Emacs. Make any changes you want to the README.org file or any of the files in the site-lisp folder. Make sure you commit your changes afterward by typing C-c p v, then cc. If you have already forked this repo on GitHub, you can add it as a remote by typing Mg followed by your GitHub username within Magit. To push to it, just type Pr then find your username in the list & press enter. Pull requests are always welcome through GitHub!

Without Nix

You can also use this configuration without Nix. This just gives you the Emacs configuration without any of the Nix integrations. All of the binaries will have to be provided externally. To get started, run the following:

mv ~/.emacs.d ~/.emacs.d.old
git clone https://github.com/matthewbauer/bauer \
          ~/.emacs.d

Emacs init file

This is the main part of the IDE. It is written in Emacs Lisp & will be loaded every time Emacs is started.

Increase GC

Increasing GC is a common way to speed up Emacs. gc-cons-threshold sets at what point Emacs should invoke its garbage collector Some people set it to a really larger number permanently. This works well until the garbage is actually collected (then you have to wait a long time). I’ve decided to just set it temporarily to a large number so we only garbage collect once on startup. After that we reset it to the standard value. Read @bling’s post for more info on this.

;; -*- mode: emacs-lisp; coding: utf-8; -*-

(defvar file-name-handler-alist-backup
        file-name-handler-alist)
(setq gc-cons-threshold most-positive-fixnum
      file-name-handler-alist nil)
(add-hook 'after-init-hook
  (lambda ()
    (garbage-collect)
    (setq gc-cons-threshold
            (car (get 'gc-cons-threshold 'standard-value))
      file-name-handler-alist
        (append
          file-name-handler-alist-backup
          file-name-handler-alist))))

(setq read-process-output-max (* 1024 1024))

Autoloads & Misc.

Setup some initial aliases for Emacs. These give us an easy way to use these functions without actually require’ing them. Ideally, Emacs should pick these up through the automatic autoloading method, but that sometimes conflicts with the compiling phases used later.

(eval-and-compile
  (autoload 'package-installed-p "package")
  (autoload 'use-package-autoload-keymap "use-package")
  (autoload 'pcomplete-arg "pcomplete")
  (autoload 'pcomplete--here "pcomplete")

  (autoload 'tramp-dissect-file-name "tramp")

  (defvar view-mode-map)
  (defvar iso-transl-ctl-x-8-map)
  (defvar dired-mode-map))

When we are within a terminal we want to be able to use the mouse, so xterm-mouse-mode is enabled here.

iTerm doesn’t seem to support xterm color reporting correctly, so we use the COLORFGBG method.

(unless (display-graphic-p)

Custom config

set-defaults provides an easy way to override the default custom files. This means that when you customize a variable it will appear as ‘standard’ even though it’s not what the package originally defined as the default. This is useful for an Emacs distribution to provide better defaults while still letting the user override them. Look through the lispdoc of the package for documentation on how this works. Eventually, this will be added to MELPA for use in other Emacs distributions.

(require 'set-defaults)

Better defaults

These are some better defaults for Emacs. They shouldn’t require any packages to be installed to work (those go in use-package). In addition, they should take almost no time to run (meaning they probably shouldn’t have custom init hooks). The format of arguments to set-defaults is identical to the one used by custom-set-variables.

Site paths

Now, pull in generated paths from site-paths.el. Nix will generate this file automatically for us & different Emacs variables will be set to their Nix store derivation paths. Everything should work fine if you don’t have this available, though. If you are in Emacs & already have the IDE installed you can inspect this file by typing C-h C-l site-paths. It will look similar to a settings.el file where each line corresponds to a customizable variable. Unlike settings.el, each entry is path in the Nix store & we verify it exists before setting it.

(load "site-paths" t)

Set environment

set-envs is provided by set-defaults. We can use it like custom-set-variables, just it calls setenv instead of setq. All of these entries correspond to environment variables that we want to always be set in the Emacs process.

(set-envs
 '("VISUAL" "emacsclient -a emacs")
 '("EDITOR" "emacsclient -a emacs")
 '("NODE_NO_READLINE" "1")
 '("PAGER" "cat")
 '("PS1" "\\W > ")
 )

Fix broken Git on Windows.

(when (eq window-system 'w32)
  (setenv "GIT_ASKPASS" "git-gui--askpass"))

Load custom file

This file allows users to override the above defaults. This will mean you can use custom as you normally would in vanilla Emacs.

(when custom-file
  (load custom-file t))

Setup use-package

use-package is an Emacs package by John Weigley allowing users to easily configure other Emacs packages. It’s quite useful & it will be used extensively in this project.

Now to get use-package we will require package.el & initialize it if site-paths is not setup (meaning we’re outside the Nix expression). Because site-paths should be available (unless you don’t have Nix), we can skip this step. All of this is marked ‘eval-and-compile’ to make sure the compiler picks it up on build phase.

So, there are basically two modes for using this configuration. One when packages are installed externally (through Nix) & another where they are installed internally. This is captured in the variable ‘needs-package-init’ which will be t when we want to use the builtin package.el & will be nil when we want to just assume everything is available.

(eval-and-compile
  (setq needs-package-init
        (and (not (locate-library "site-paths"))
                 (not (and
                    (boundp 'use-package-list--is-running)
                    use-package-list--is-running)))))

First handle using package.el. We will do all of the work of bootstrapping here including running package-initialize, ensuring use-package, & delight are installed.

(when needs-package-init
  (require 'package)
  (package-initialize)
  (unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
    (package-refresh-contents)
    (package-install 'use-package))
  (unless (package-installed-p 'delight)
    (package-refresh-contents)
    (package-install 'delight)))

Actually require use-package,

(eval-and-compile
  (require 'delight)
  (require 'bind-key)
  (require 'use-package))

Now let’s handle the case where all of the packages are already provided. Basically, we’ll prevent use-package from running ‘ensure’ on anything.

(eval-and-compile
  (setq use-package-always-ensure needs-package-init)
  (when (not needs-package-init)
    (setq use-package-ensure-function 'ignore
          package-enable-at-startup nil
          package--init-file-ensured t)))

Key bindings

Using bind-key, setup some simple key bindings. None of these should overwrite Emacs’ default keybindings. Also, they should only require vanilla Emacs to work (non-vanilla Emacs key bindings should be put in their use-package declaration). These are meant to all be as close to vanilla Emacs as possible. I try to avoid extremely specific key binds here.

What is overwritten can be seen with M-x describe-personal-keybindings. The goal is to overwrite as little as possible. When it is necessary to overwrite Emacs keybinds, documentation on why should be provided.

First we include a library that provides some nice helper functions that will be used as key bindings.

(require 'bauer)
(require 'files)

Define some helper functions.

(defun web-search (start end)
  (interactive "r")
  (let ((q (buffer-substring-no-properties start end)))
    (browse-url (concat "http://www.google.com/search?btnI&q="
      (url-hexify-string q)))))

Override browse-url to handle man protocol better.

(require 'browse-url)
(defun my-browse-url (url &rest args)
  "Ask a WWW browser to load URL.
Prompt for a URL, defaulting to the URL at or before point.
Invokes a suitable browser function which does the actual job.
The variable `browse-url-browser-function' says which browser function to
use.  If the URL is a mailto: URL, consult `browse-url-mailto-function'
first, if that exists.

The additional ARGS are passed to the browser function.  See the doc
strings of the actual functions, starting with `browse-url-browser-function',
for information about the significance of ARGS (most of the functions
ignore it).
If ARGS are omitted, the default is to pass `browse-url-new-window-flag'
as ARGS."
  (interactive (browse-url-interactive-arg "URL: "))
  (unless (called-interactively-p 'interactive)
    (setq args (or args (list browse-url-new-window-flag))))
  (when (and url-handler-mode
             (not (file-name-absolute-p url))
             (not (string-match "\\`[a-z]+:" url)))
    (setq url (expand-file-name url)))
  (let ((process-environment (copy-sequence process-environment))
	(function (or (and (string-match "\\`mailto:" url)
			   browse-url-mailto-function)
                      (and (string-match "\\`man:" url)
                           browse-url-man-function)
		      browse-url-browser-function))
	;; Ensure that `default-directory' exists and is readable (b#6077).
	(default-directory (or (unhandled-file-name-directory default-directory)
			       (expand-file-name "~/"))))
    ;; When connected to various displays, be careful to use the display of
    ;; the currently selected frame, rather than the original start display,
    ;; which may not even exist any more.
    (if (stringp (frame-parameter nil 'display))
        (setenv "DISPLAY" (frame-parameter nil 'display)))
    (if (and (consp function)
	     (not (functionp function)))
	;; The `function' can be an alist; look down it for first match
	;; and apply the function (which might be a lambda).
	(catch 'done
	  (dolist (bf function)
	    (when (string-match (car bf) url)
	      (apply (cdr bf) url args)
	      (throw 'done t)))
	  (error "No browse-url-browser-function matching URL %s"
		 url))
      ;; Unbound symbols go down this leg, since void-function from
      ;; apply is clearer than wrong-type-argument from dolist.
      (apply function url args))))

(advice-add 'browse-url :override 'my-browse-url)

Now we will call bind-keys. We give it keys to bind & what function to run when those keys are pressed. Note on syntax of bind-keys: if you are unfamiliar with how Emacs key binding works, you should read through this article. Some things done below include:

  • Make frame and window management a little bit easier. These are all used to

better navigations.

  • Scale text size for different context. Defaults to 12pt fonts.
  • Add evaluator keys, useful for executing lisp expressions.
  • Add some read-only mode keybindings.

Some bauer-specific custom keybindings.

(bind-keys
  ([f12] . next-error)
  ([f11] . previous-error)
  ([shift f12] . previous-error)
  ([mouse-9] . next-buffer)
  ([mouse-8] . previous-buffer))

Terminal mode key bindings follow. Scrolling in the term with the mouse should move text.

(unless window-system
  (global-set-key (kbd "<mouse-4>") 'scroll-down-line)
  (global-set-key (kbd "<mouse-5>") 'scroll-up-line))

macOS-specific bindings follow. Fullscreen handling should use the macOS feature, while by default it uses a custom Emacs stuff. In addition, drag and drop needs a special binding.

(when (eq window-system 'mac)
  (defun mac-fullscreen ()
    (interactive)
    (let ((fullscreen (frame-parameter nil 'fullscreen)))
      (if (memq fullscreen '(fullscreen fullboth))

        (modify-frame-parameters
         nil `((fullscreen . fullscreen) (fullscreen-restore . ,fullscreen))))))

  (bind-key "C-x 5 4" 'mac-fullscreen)

  (when (fboundp 'ns-drag-n-drop-as-text)

Bind help map keys.

(bind-keys
  :map help-map
  ("C-r" . woman)
  ("j" . woman)
  ("C-j" . man)
  ("C-s" . web-search))

Setup installer

Installer provides installation & upgrading functionality. You can upgrade the IDE at any time by typing M-x upgrade from within Emacs. You may have to restart Emacs for the upgrade to take place. See installer.el for documentation.

(require 'installer nil t)

Packages

Each of these entries are use-package calls that will both install & load the package for us. The most important are listed first in “Essentials”. “Built-in” Emacs packages are also configured. Next comes the “Programming Language” modes. Finally, we list some miscellaneous modes.

This is an alphabetized listing of all Emacs packages needed by the IDE. To resort, go to one of the package group headings & type C-c ^ a.

Essentials

These are the best & most useful modes available to us in Emacs world.

Theme

GitHub

This is the theme I use & it works well for this configuration. It is dark with high contrast. We will only enable it when we are running with GUI Emacs.

(use-package apropospriate-theme
  :if window-system
  :init
  (add-to-list 'custom-theme-load-path
               (file-name-directory

  (if (eq (frame-parameter nil 'background-mode) 'light)
      (load-theme 'apropospriate-light t)
    (load-theme 'apropospriate-dark t)))

While apropospriate is the default, other themes can be used as well! For instance spacemacs-theme can be enabled:

(use-package spacemacs-common
  :ensure spacemacs-theme
  :if window-system
  :init
  (add-to-list 'custom-theme-load-path
               (file-name-directory
                 (locate-library "spacemacs-theme-pkg")))
  (load-theme 'spacemacs-dark t))

Profiles

All of these files live outside of Emacs but are necessary for a usable developer environment. They are basic shell profile and some git configuration scripts as well.

.profile

To use this, you must create a short ~/.profile file. Here is an example,

bootstrap="$HOME/.nix-profile/etc/profile"
[ -f $bootstrap ] && . $bootstrap

Set some Nix variables that never seem to get set correctly. There are a few bug that break how this works. Also need to set some common exports that are needed. Lots of common variables need to know about the .nix-profile directory. We leave the first MANPATH separator empty so it uses the default PATH lookup as well. CVS_RSH is needed if your ever need to do cvs. HISTFILE sets where to store the bash or zsh history. We set the history size to 10000 for good measure. VISUAL should point to this editor.

Here we setup .profile. First, setup exports. We leave the first part of MANPATH empty so it resolves using the PATH-based method. Fallbacks are provided just in case.

  export PATH="$HOME/bin":"$HOME/.nix-profile/bin":$PREFIX/bin:@PATH@${PATH:+:$PATH} \
         INFOPATH="$HOME/.nix-profile/share/info":@INFOPATH@${INFOPATH:+:$INFOPATH} \
         MANPATH=:"$HOME/.nix-profile/share/man":@MANPATH@${MANPATH:+:$MANPATH} \

This will source everything in /etc/profile.d. We skip nix-daemon.sh because it is put in the global profile, and sets values incorrectly when we are in single user mode. We need @out@ to come after $HOME so that it gets the last word in these settings.

Bootstrapping

site-paths.el.in

This file provides site-specific paths. However, it must be substituted in Nix before we can actually run it in Emacs. To prevent Emacs from trying to run this, I’ve set the syntax to text.

(require 'set-defaults)
(require 'subr-x)

output-directory points to the nix-profile directory created by Nix. Ideally, this could point to a Nix store path, but the order of building means that we don’t know this until too late.

(defvar output-directory
        (expand-file-name ".nix-profile" (getenv "HOME")))
(defvar zsh-command
        (expand-file-name "bin/zsh" output-directory))

Setup exec-path.

(setq exec-path
      (append `(,(expand-file-name "bin" output-directory)
                "@bins@/bin")
              (split-string "@PATH@" ":")
              exec-path))

Setup man-path.

(defvar man-path (append
                  `(""
                    ,(expand-file-name "share/man" output-directory)
                    "@manpages@/share/man")
                  (split-string "@MANPATH@" ":")))

Setup history and stuff. This gets messy, but we need to make sure these are set otherwise zsh will default to 500 and not save at all!

(defun bauer-set-history-file (sym val)
  "Setter for history-file."
  (setenv "HISTFILE" (eval val))
  (custom-set-default sym val))

(defcustom history-file (expand-file-name ".zsh_history" (getenv "HOME"))
  "The history file to use."
  :type 'string
  :group 'bauer
  :set 'bauer-set-history-file)

(defvar eshell-history-size)
(defvar comint-input-ring-size)

(defun bauer-set-history-size (sym val)
  "Setter for history-size."
  (setenv "HISTSIZE" (format "%i" val))
  (setenv "SAVEHIST" (format "%i" val))
  (setq eshell-history-size val
        comint-input-ring-size val)
  (custom-set-default sym val))

(defcustom history-size 50000
  "The history size to use."
  :type 'integer
  :group 'bauer
  :set 'bauer-set-history-size)

Set some more misc. vars.

bootstrap.sh

This is the bootstrap script that is mentioned above. We use it to install the IDE. It ensures Nix is installed as well as that the Git repo is available & up-to-date. Note, this script will automatically install Nix and Git for you if they are not already installed! Use it at your own risk.

Install Nix if it isn’t already.

Building

No tests currently exists, but some things are important to keep in mind. Some high level goals that should be verified:

  • Keep closure size under 1GB (currently 800MB)
  • Don’t assume users’ language, locales, time zone, etc.
  • Don’t hard code any personal information
  • Everything should run on Linux, and macOS.
  • Nix usage is optional (see Withou Nix above).

The editor and environment should be general purpose and portable

default.nix: the tangler

Here we being the building process. There are a couple of stages to this not normally seen in configurations. The first part is the ‘default.nix’ which will tangle the README.org file. This should be the only file that has to live outside of this ORG document. This is meant to be very minimal so that once we tangle README.org, we can get a working .nix file to import from using Nix’s import from derivation.

The function header defines some arguments you can pass. It will use the latest nixpkgs-unstable from nixos.org. If you want to change this, you can pass in your own pkgs variable.

The small argument is a bit of a hack. Nix will only recognize args that have been explicitly listed so we cannot rely on the ‘…’ syntax to pick up random args.

# -*- mode: nix; coding: utf-8; -*-
{ version ? "21.11"
, channel ? {
    "x86_64-darwin" = "nixpkgs-unstable";
  }.${builtins.currentSystem} or "nixos-${version}"
, nixpkgs-url ?
  "https://nixos.org/channels/${channel}/nixexprs.tar.xz"
, system ? builtins.currentSystem
, crossSystem ? null
, config ? {}
, overlays ? []
, pkgs ? import (builtins.fetchTarball nixpkgs-url) {
  inherit crossSystem system config overlays;
}
, small ? true
, ...
} @ args:

Now let’s tangle README.org… This uses ORG’s babel functionality to generate a .nix file. The .nix file is renamed to default.nix to replace this script.

let
  ensure = f: n: if builtins.pathExists f then f
                 else builtins.fetchurl
                 "https://matthewbauer.us/bauer/${n}";
in import (pkgs.runCommand "README" {
  buildInputs = with pkgs; [ emacs git ];
} (''
  install -D ${ensure ./README.org "README.org"} \
          $out/README.org
  cd $out
'' + pkgs.lib.optionalString (builtins.pathExists ./site-lisp) ''
  cp -r ${./site-lisp} site-lisp
'' + ''
  emacs --batch --quick \
        -l ob-tangle \
        --eval "(org-babel-tangle-file \"README.org\")" > /dev/null
  cp bauer.nix default.nix
'')) { inherit ensure pkgs small system; }

bauer.nix: the build script

Here we have the actual Nix file that will build our Emacs configuration. Again we have some options that can be provided…

# -*- mode: nix; coding: utf-8; -*-
{ system ? builtins.currentSystem
, crossSystem ? null
, config ? {}
, overlays ? []
, pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> { inherit crossSystem system config overlays; }
, evalPkgs ? pkgs
, ensure ? f: n: f
, small ? pkgs.config.bauer.small or true
, emacs-overlay ? { overlay = import (builtins.fetchTarball "https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay/archive/master.tar.gz"); }
, ... }: let
inherit (pkgs) stdenv lib runCommand buildEnv config writeText;
inherit (stdenv) hostPlatform;
big = !small;
allowUnfree = config.allowUnfree or false;

By default, you will be building the “small” version which is about 500MB. The normal version has a huge closure totalling in at over 5GB. This is extremely useful for integrations with developer tools and manuals, but also inconvenient when wanting to start running for the first time. If you want to enable the big version, you can just do ‘config.bauer.small = false’ in your ~/.config/nixpkgs/config.nix file. Alternatively, if you want the small version, just do ‘nixpkgs.config.bauer.small = true’.

Next we start defining some packages. R is one of the simpler ones right now, so let’s start with that.

rEnv = pkgs.rWrapper.override {
  packages = with pkgs.rPackages; [
    RCurl
  ];
};

Here we define our package set. This will just give us access to all of the Emacs packages defined in Nixpkgs.

We also define our Emacs version to use. Mitsuharo’s Emacs package is much better for MacOS so we use that when we’re on Darwin systems. Otherwise, just default to ‘emacs’ which should be the latest (Nixpkgs-unstable has version 26.1 currently).

customEmacsPackages = let
  pkgs' = import pkgs.path {
    inherit crossSystem system config;
    overlays = overlays ++ [ emacs-overlay.overlay ];
  };
in pkgs'.emacsPackagesFor (pkgs'.emacsGit.overrideAttrs (o: {
  CFLAGS = "-DMAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED=110200";
}));

Tex live provides some LaTeX commads for us.

myTex = pkgs.texlive.combine {
  inherit (pkgs.texlive) xetex setspace
    fontspec chktex enumitem xifthen

Emacs configuration

Here, we start building up the site-paths.el file. This does a simple substitution of all the attributes set.

  site-paths = runCommand "site-paths.el" (with pkgs; ({
    inherit ripgrep silver-searcher coreutils;
    inherit manpages sysheaders sysframeworks
            schemas bins infopages;

    inherit (haskellPackages) hoogle hlint;

Emacs building can be divided into phases. Each phase will run through the Elisp once.

Phase 1: picking up dependencies

myEmacsPackages gets a listing of all of the packages that are needed by the Emacs configuration. use-package-list generates this list automatically.

package-list =
  evalPkgs.runCommand "package-list" {
    buildInputs = [ evalPkgs.emacs ];
  } ''
emacs --batch --quick \
      -L ${evalPkgs.emacsPackages.use-package
          }/share/emacs/site-lisp/elpa/use-package-* \
      -L ${evalPkgs.emacsPackages.delight
          }/share/emacs/site-lisp/elpa/delight-* \
      -L ${evalPkgs.emacsPackages.bind-key
          }/share/emacs/site-lisp/elpa/bind-key-* \
      -l ${ensure ./site-lisp/set-defaults.el
                   "site-lisp/set-defaults.el"} \
      -l ${ensure ./site-lisp/bauer.el
                   "site-lisp/bauer.el"} \
      -l ${ensure ./site-lisp/use-package-list.el
                   "site-lisp/use-package-list.el"} \
      --eval "(use-package-list \"${./README.el}\")" \
      > $out 2>/dev/null
'';
myEmacsPackages' = builtins.fromJSON
                   (builtins.readFile package-list);

Phase 2: byte compiling

default = runCommand "bauer-emacs" {
  buildInputs = [ pkgs.emacs pkgs.git ];
} ''

Install our lisp files. Many of these should be released into MELPA but don’t have the time to do it currently.

install -D ${site-paths} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-paths.el
install -D ${./README.el} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/default.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/em-dired.el
                     "site-lisp/em-dired.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/em-dired.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/dired-column.el
                     "site-lisp/dired-column.el"} \

install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/macho-mode.el
                     "site-lisp/macho-mode.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/macho-mode.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/nethack.el
                     "site-lisp/nethack.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/nethack.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/set-defaults.el
                     "site-lisp/set-defaults.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/set-defaults.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/installer.el
                     "site-lisp/installer.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/installer.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/restart-emacs.el
                     "site-lisp/restart-emacs.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/restart-emacs.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/use-package-list.el
                     "site-lisp/use-package-list.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/use-package-list.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/bauer.el
                    "site-lisp/bauer.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/bauer.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/comint-hyperlink.el
                    "site-lisp/comint-hyperlink.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/comint-hyperlink.el
install -D ${ensure ./site-lisp/persistent-mode.el
                     "site-lisp/persistent-mode.el"} \
        $out/share/emacs/site-lisp/persistent-mode.el
'';

Phase 3: wrapping into Emacs

This phase wraps the byte compiled lisp into an Emacs binary. Each package listed in use-package above is pulled into the closure.

requiredPackages is a function that takes two arguments.

requiredPackages = epkgs: map (x:
  if builtins.hasAttr x epkgs
    then builtins.getAttr x epkgs
  else if builtins.hasAttr x pkgs.emacsPackages
    then builtins.getAttr x pkgs.emacsPackages
  else abort "no attribute found for use-package ${x}");

Now we build our Emacs distribution.

TODO: use dump-emacs here to speed up config.

myEmacsPackages = buildEnv {
  name = "emacs-packages-env";
  paths = (requiredPackages customEmacsPackages myEmacsPackages')
        ++ [ customEmacsPackages.use-package customEmacsPackages.delight ];
};

myEmacs = customEmacsPackages.emacsWithPackages (epkgs:
  (requiredPackages epkgs myEmacsPackages')
  ++ [default epkgs.use-package epkgs.delight]
);

The environment

Finally, we can actually build the environment. This just uses Nixpkgs buildEnv to generate Nix paths for the different packages. Some need special handling.

First, we build the info pages. This takes all of the packages listed in userPackages and runs install-info on them. Info pages are usually found in the $out/share/info directory, but in Emacs packages can be found anywhere in $out/share/emacs.

infopages = buildEnv {
  name = "info-pages";
  buildInputs = [ pkgs.texinfoInteractive ];
  paths = userPackages ++ [customEmacsPackages.emacs]
    ++ lib.optional hostPlatform.isLinux pkgs.glibcInfo;
  extraOutputsToInstall = [ "info" "doc" "devdoc" ];
  pathsToLink = [ "/share/info" ];
  postBuild = ''
    shopt -s nullglob
    find -L ${myEmacsPackages}/share/emacs/ -name '*.info*' -exec ln -s {} $out/share/info \;
    for i in $out/share/info/*.info*; do
      install-info $i $out/share/info/dir
    done
  '';
};

Next, we build the man pages. Again, these come from userPackages and are in the /share/man directory. In addition, some extra man pages are added like the POSIX man pages, and the C++ stdlib man pages. Other OS-specific ones are also included where appropriate Linux man pages (man-pages), and the ones from the Apple SDK.

manpages = buildEnv {
  name = "man-pages";
  ignoreCollisions = (!(config.bauer.small or false));
  paths = userPackages ++ [pkgs.man-pages-posix
                           pkgs.stdman
                           # pkgs.llvmPackages.clang-manpages
                           # pkgs.llvmPackages.llvm-manpages
                           ]
    ++ lib.optional (hostPlatform.isDarwin && big && allowUnfree)
                     "${apple_sdk}/usr"
    ++ lib.optional hostPlatform.isLinux pkgs.man-pages;
  extraOutputsToInstall = [ "man" "doc" "devdoc" "devman" ];
  pathsToLink = [ "/share/man" ];
};

Next, build the XDG / FreeDesktop directory paths. These come from userPackages and include relevnt information for Desktop files, MIME info, menus, and icons. This updates the caches where appropriate as well. The location of these directories is defined in the FreeDesktop specification.

xdg-data = buildEnv {
  name = "xdg-data-dirs";
  buildInputs = [ pkgs.desktop-file-utils pkgs.shared-mime-info ];
  paths = userPackages ++ [ customEmacsPackages.emacs pkgs.zsh ];
  pathsToLink = [
    "/share/applications"
    "/share/mime"
    "/share/menus"
    "/share/icons"
  ];
  postBuild = ''
    export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$out/share

    if [ -w $out/share/applications ]; then
      update-desktop-database $out/share/applications
    fi

    if [ -w $out/share/mime ] \
       && [ -w $out/share/mime/packages ]; then
      update-mime-database -V $out/share/mime
    fi
  '';
};

Next, ZSH completions are built. These all reside in the $out/share/zsh/site-functions directory.

zsh-completions = buildEnv {
  name = "zsh-completions";
  paths = [ pkgs.zsh-completions ] ++ userPackages; # pkgs.nix-zsh-completions
  pathsToLink = [ "/share/zsh" ];
};

Next, setup the binary directory. This will be put in the user’s PATH. We also remove binaries starting with ., as they are used in Nixpkgs for the “wrapped” version of executables.

bins = buildEnv {
  name = "bins";
  paths = userPackages;
  extraOutputsToInstall = [ "bin" ];
  pathsToLink = [ "/bin" ];
  postBuild = ''
    find $out/bin -maxdepth 1 -name ".*" -type l -delete
  '';
};

Setup the system headers path. This is delibirately light to avoid huge closures. Right now, only libc and libcxx are included by default.

sysheaders = buildEnv {
  name = "headers";
  pathsToLink = [ "/include" ];
  extraOutputsToInstall = [ "dev" ];
  paths = [ stdenv.cc.libc ]
    ++ lib.optional hostPlatform.isDarwin pkgs.libcxx
    ++ lib.optional (hostPlatform.isDarwin && big && allowUnfree)
                    "${apple_sdk}/usr";
};

Also setup the Apple framework paths. These are a mix between lib directory and include directory. This is oinly useful on macOS/Darwin machines.

apple_sdk = "${pkgs.darwin.xcode}/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk";
sysframeworks = buildEnv {
  name = "frameworks";
  paths = lib.optionals (hostPlatform.isDarwin && big && allowUnfree)
          [ "${apple_sdk}/System/Library/Frameworks"
            "${apple_sdk}/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks" ];
};

Setup XML schema needed for editing some docbooks in Emacs. Not entirely sure why this is necessary, but nXML complains otherwise.

schemas = writeText "schemas.xml" ''
<locatingRules
    xmlns="http://thaiopensource.com/ns/locating-rules/1.0"
>
  <documentElement localName="section" typeId="DocBook"/>
  <documentElement localName="chapter" typeId="DocBook"/>
  <documentElement localName="article" typeId="DocBook"/>
  <documentElement localName="book" typeId="DocBook"/>
  <typeId id="DocBook"
          uri="${pkgs.docbook5}/xml/rng/docbook/docbookxi.rnc"
  />
</locatingRules>
'';

Full listing of packages that will be made available.

userPackages = (with pkgs; [
  # From common-path.nix
  coreutils-full findutils diffutils gnused gnugrep gawk gnutar
  gzip bzip2 gnumake bashInteractive patch xz

  ++ (with gitAndTools; [ hub ])
  ++ (with haskellPackages; [ ghc jq nix-diff cabal2nix cabal-install ])
  ++ (with unixtools; [ utillinux nettools procps ])
));

Setup global environment variables & directories. Most of the global directories will not exist, but the way search paths work, means that is okay. We aim to support all directories in a common system, prioritizing ones that the user has the most direct access to. Global directories should only contain system paths.

global-dirs = [ "/nix/var/nix/profiles/default"
                "/run/wrappers"
                "/run/current-system/sw"
                "/usr/local"
                "/usr"
                "" ];

PATH = lib.concatStringsSep ":" [
         (lib.makeBinPath ([ bins customEmacsPackages.emacs pkgs.zsh ]
                           ++ global-dirs))
         (lib.makeSearchPath "sbin" [ "/usr" "" ])
       ];
MANPATH = ":" + lib.makeSearchPathOutput "man" "share/man"
  ([ manpages customEmacsPackages.emacs pkgs.zsh ] ++ global-dirs);
INFOPATH = "${infopages}/share/info";
XDG_DATA_DIRS = lib.makeSearchPathOutput "xdg" "share"
  ([ xdg-data ] ++ global-dirs);
TERMINFO_DIRS = lib.makeSearchPathOutput "terminfo" "share/terminfo"
  ([ pkgs.ncurses ]);

INPUTRC = builtins.toFile "inputrc" ''
  $include /etc/inputrc

  $if mode=emacs
    "\C-p": history-search-backward
    "\C-n": history-search-forward
  $endif

Finally, build the final environment. This only contains Emacs and ZSH, which have been configured to use the paths above.

Invoking it

We can build it with nix-build.

nix-build
./result/bin/run

Continuous integration

Continuous integration is now through GitHub Actions. See .github/workflows/main.yml for more info.

Extra

These are some extra files that are checked in. They mostly deal with maintainence and advanced usage of BAUER.

update.sh

This is a simple script that I use to make sure I’ve updated the generated files. It runs ORG mode tangler and then exports README.org to html.

emacs --batch \
      -l ob-tangle \
      --eval "(org-babel-tangle-file \"README.org\")"
emacs README.org --batch \
  --eval "(setq org-html-htmlize-output-type 'css)" \
  -l nix-mode \
  -f org-html-export-to-html

.gitignore

If you end up with generated files, they’re easy to remove with Git. Just run git clean -xdf & it will remove all of the files that match the .gitignore rules (which should never be added to the git tree).

These set up some paths for .gitignore that we don’t want getting put in the repo. Start with Emacs/org-mode/LaTeX stuff.

flycheck_*.el
*.elc
*.pdf
*.html
*.tex
*.log
*.aux
*.out
*.toc

Nix-related stuff. These are generate by nix-build.

init.el

You can use this as part of your Emacs init file:

(load
  (expand-file-name "settings.el" user-emacs-directory) t)
(package-initialize)
(defvar bauer-dir user-emacs-directory)
(defvar bauer-org
        (expand-file-name "README.org" bauer-dir))
(add-to-list 'load-path
             (expand-file-name "site-lisp" bauer-dir))
(add-to-list 'native-comp-eln-load-path
             (expand-file-name "native-lisp" bauer-dir))
(unless (file-exists-p
          (expand-file-name "README.el" bauer-dir))
  (let ((default-directory bauer-dir))
    (autoload 'org-babel-tangle-file "ob-tangle")
    (org-babel-tangle-file bauer-org
                          "README.el"
                          "emacs-lisp")))
(load (expand-file-name "README.el" bauer-dir) t)

This will boot the IDE. Note that this is done for you in the Nix-based installation process. The above script should be used in places where Nix is unavailable.

NixOS module

I’ve provided a module suitable for use with a NixOS configuration. To use it, just add something like the following to your configuration.nix file.

# -*- mode: nix; coding: utf-8; -*-
{ ... }:
{
  imports = [
    (builtins.fetchurl "https://matthewbauer.us/bauer/module.nix")
  ];
  programs.bauer.enable = true;
}

The actual module implementation follow here. It will pull in some files needed for all of this to work. It should provide ‘bauer’ as a runnable command.

# -*- mode: nix; coding: utf-8; -*-
{ config, lib, pkgs, ... }: with lib;

let
  ensure = f: n: if builtins.pathExists f then f
                 else builtins.fetchurl
    "https://matthewbauer.us/bauer/${n}";
  bauer = import (ensure ./default.nix "default.nix") {
    inherit pkgs;
  };
in {
  options = {
    programs.bauer = {
      enable = mkOption {
        default = false;
        type = types.bool;
      };
    };
  };

  config = mkIf config.programs.bauer.enable {
    environment = {
      systemPackages = [ bauer ];
      variables = with lib; {
        PATH = [bauer.PATH];
        XDG_DATA_DIRS = [bauer.XDG_DATA_DIRS];
        TERMINFO_DIRS = [bauer.TERMINFO_DIRS];
        MANPATH = [bauer.MANPATH];
        INFOPATH = [bauer.INFOPATH];
      };
    };
  };
}

NixOS virtualbox & installer

Use this to build a .ova file for demonstration purposes. This file can be booted by VirtualBox. Useful for Windows users especially.

# -*- mode: nix; coding: utf-8; -*-
{ system ? builtins.currentSystem }:
let
  ensure = f: n: if builtins.pathExists f then f
                 else builtins.fetchurl
    "https://matthewbauer.us/bauer/${n}";
in {
  ova = (import <nixpkgs/nixos/lib/eval-config.nix> {
    inherit system;
    modules = [
      <nixpkgs/nixos/modules/installer/virtualbox-demo.nix>
      (ensure ./module.nix "module.nix")
    ];
  }).config.system.build.virtualBoxOVA;
  iso = (import <nixpkgs/nixos/lib/eval-config.nix> {
    inherit system;
    modules = [
      <nixpkgs/nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd/installation-cd-graphical-kde.nix>
      (ensure ./module.nix "module.nix")
    ];
  }).config.system.build.isoImage;
}

Deploy script

I use this script to deploy to the gh-pages branch. It merges master into gh-pages and then runs ORG mode tangle and export. Unfortunately, merge conflicts are not handled, and must be dealt with manually.

setup() {
  git stash push
  git checkout gh-pages
}

cleanup() {
  git checkout master
  git stash pop
}

setup
trap cleanup EXIT

git fetch origin
git reset --hard origin/gh-pages
git merge --no-edit master
./update.sh
git add .
git commit -m "Regen"
git push origin gh-pages

Gist script

Private file handling for new environments. Unpack private files from a Gist into your environment. Must have already setup SSH GitHub authentication. To set up GitHub SSH run:

$ ssh-keygen

Then, add $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub through GitHub’s Web UI. Invoke the script with:

$ ./gist-unpack.sh 4a7372cf458f2b322c0b7a6e7837592f

Files that can be included in the gist are:

  • .authinfo: stores your passwords and credentials. Domains like smtp.gmail.com, api.github.com, and irc.freenode.net require credentials.
  • .gitconfig: stores your personal Git configuration and settings. Things like user.email, user.name, github.user should go here. Unfortunately, it also may have credentials for smtpmail. Ideally these would be put in .authinfo to avoid mixing secrets. See this thread for more info.
  • .sshconfig: stores your SSH configuration corresponding to .ssh/config. Put global host names and relates settings here.
  • settings.el: store your personal Emacs configurations. Settings like erc-nick, message-send-mail-function, send-mail-function, smtpmail-smtp-server, smtpmail-smtp-service, user-full-name, and user-mail-address should go here.

The actual script follows. The main idea is just to download all of the files from the Gist and copy them to the $HOME directory. --force can be passed to allow overriding your current $HOME files.

    echo Usage: "$0" [ GIST_ID | URL ] [ -u USER ] [ -t TOKEN ] >&2
