Moldable Emacs: Vega-Lite, Nyxt and Emacs Against Sustainable Constructing
Let’s try to do factual that (or an instance of that no decrease than)! The
query is: what notes entice my attention most? Let me quantify
this query by announcing: which notes maintain the most Org Scamper oneway links?
That is wise to me ensuing from in conjunction with a one-way link is an effort.
Encourage links expose how primary I care about some extent out. So the thought is to rob (a
fragment of — I got too many notes–) my notes, gain what number of oneway links
they’ve, and placement this to learn which point out wins. Also I are looking to click on
the location to delivery the point out in Emacs (and expose its oneway links). It sounds
complex, but here it is a long way!
Time to hide! First of the total instruments I wished for this workflow.
- Emacs (for the entire lot basically),
- Org Scamper (for the notes),
- Vega-Lite (for the location),
- Moldable Emacs (for playground and files conversion),
- Emacs-with-Nyxt (for interaction between Nyxt and Emacs),
- Nyxt (for hooking Emacs to the location).
We originate from a moldable-emacs Playground that takes the predominant 100
notes and transforms them correct into a plist. The record accommodates the number
of oneway links, the scale of the file and a :suppose which tells what
to attain whereas you click on on a Vega-Lite node.
(--> (org-plod-node-record)
(-rob 100 it)
(--filter (> (length (org-plod-oneway links-gain it)) 0) it)
(--design
(record :file (org-plod-node-file it)
:oneway links (length (org-plod-oneway links-gain it))
:dimension (file-attribute-dimension (file-attributes (org-plod-node-file it)))
:suppose (concat "file:///"
(indecent64-encode-string
(concat
"(progn (gain-file ""
(org-plod-node-file it)
"")
(org-plod-buffer-toggle))"))
".ag91"))
it)
)
Vega-Lite does rob knowledge in JSON structure. So we translate that plist
into JSON with one other moldable-emacs mold. The Vega-Lite schema is a
hack of the scatterplot with href instance. The size I possess
are oneway links and dimension of file (I became uncommon if there became correlation
between dimension and oneway links).
Anyway, we now gain into the pretty cool stuff. Vega-Lite supports
hyperlinks to permit you click on a node of the location and navigate the catch.
I are looking to bustle an Emacs action as a replacement (i.e., delivery the point out and delivery
the Org Scamper buffer with oneway links)! What to attain? Hack the hyperlink!
Nyxt comes with a huge-cool feature: it helps you to outline how that you would be in a position to have the selection to handle
links. Currently I modified my Nyxt configuration to delivery mails with
Emacs. That it is seemingly it is top to have the selection to also yelp how that you would be in a position to have the selection to handle file extensions of an hyperlnk.
So I made my possess file extension and an handler.
(outline-configuration buffer
((demand-resource-hook (reduce #'hooks:add-hook
(record
(url-dispatching-handler
'emacs-mail
(match-plan "mailto")
"/usr/bin/emacsclient --eval '(browse-url-mail "~a")'"
)
(url-dispatching-handler
'decode-elisp-with-emacs
(match-file-extension "ag91")
"/usr/bin/emacsclient --eval '(emacs-with-nyxt-decode-suppose "~a")'"
))
:initial-value %slot-default%))))
Imprint that as soon as I gain that extension, I manufacture Emacs name
emacs-with-nyxt-decode-suppose. The purpose being into the Playground we noticed forward of.
:suppose (concat "file:///"
(indecent64-encode-string
(concat
"(progn (gain-file ""
(org-plod-node-file it)
"")
(org-plod-buffer-toggle))"))
".ag91")
I attach Elisp into my file name!!! I encode my Elisp program in indecent64
after which add an .ag91 exention.
That’s why I desire a decode characteristic.
(defun emacs-with-nyxt-decode-suppose (a)
(--> a
(s-break up "/" it t)
reverse
car
(s-break up "\." it t)
car
indecent64-decode-string
be taught
eval))
Here is maybe crazy, nonetheless it opens humongous probabilities! That it is seemingly it is top to have the selection to
bustle Elisp from the browser. And likewise that you would be in a position to have the selection to embed actions as hyperlinks!! I
wish to originate a less hacky manner to utilize this, after which I will add it
to moldable-emacs and emacs-with-nyxt.
And with this, I basically feel closer to maintain a moldable interface to
impress better the sphere round me.
(Imprint, this integration in all equity complex ensuing from Emacs does no longer maintain a
factual UX story. Otherwise, we may maybe additionally doubtlessly maintain an Emacs Vega-Lite
and a straightforward manner to hook actions to nodes. Nyxt embraces HTML and
makes that top quality. I possess GlamorousToolkit has a critically better
story since the UX is a top quality citizen of the IDE: this means I
would no longer wish to jump from Emacs to Nyxt and abet. In GT that you would be in a position to have the selection to factual
program the ingredients of the UX (which can maybe be Pharo objects) from inner
your instrument. I’m hoping Emacs will gain inspired by that at some point soon!)
