-The ‘use-package’ macro allows you to isolate package customization in
-your init file in a declarative way. It takes care of a lot of things
-for you that would otherwise require a lot of repetitive boilerplate
-code. It can help with common customization, such as binding keys,
-setting up hooks, customizing user options and faces, autoloading, and
-more. It also helps you keep Emacs startup fast, even when you use many
-(even hundreds) of packages.
-
- Note that use-package is not a package manager. Although use-package
-does have the useful capability to interface with the Emacs package
-manager, its primary purpose is for the configuration and loading of

-1 Basic Concepts
-****************
-
-use-package provides the ‘use-package’ macro, that simplifies the
-customization and use of packages in Emacs. It was created for a few
-basic reasons, each of which drove the design. Understanding these
-reasons may help make some of those decisions clearer:
-
- 1. To gather all configuration details of a package into one place,
- making it easier to copy, disable, or move it elsewhere in the init
- file.
-
- 2. To reduce duplication and boilerplate, capturing several common
- practices as mere keywords both easy and intuitive to use.
-
- 3. To make startup time of Emacs as quick as possible, without
- sacrificing the quantity of add-on packages used.
-
- 4. To make it so errors encountered during startup disable only the
- package raising the error, and as little else as possible, leaving
- as close to a functional Emacs as possible.
-
- 5. To allow byte-compilation of one's init file so that any warnings
- or errors seen are meaningful. In this way, even if
- byte-compilation is not used for speed (reason 3), it can still be
- used as a sanity check.
-
- It is worth noting that use-package is not intended to replace the
-standard ‘M-x customize’. On the contrary, it is designed to work
-together with it, for things that customize cannot do.

-
-2 Getting Started
-*****************
-
-This chapter provides instructions and examples for quickly getting
-started with use-package. The first thing you need to do is make sure
-that ‘use-package’ itself is loaded. To do that, put this at the top of
-your init file:
-
- (require 'use-package)
-
- The above makes the ‘use-macro’ for in the rest of your init file.
-In this manual, we call each call to ‘use-macro’ a “declaration”, to
-highlight the declarative nature of its semantic.
-
- To unconditionally load a package named ‘foo’, add the following
-declaration to your init file:
-
- (use-package foo)
-
-This declaration is equivalent to using ‘require’, with some use-package
-specific error handling added in. Just like require, it needs the
-package ‘foo’ to be installed and available in your ‘load-path’ (*note
-Installing packages::).
-
- To evaluate Lisp code _before_ the ‘foo’ package is loaded, use the
-‘:init’ keyword:
-
- (use-package foo
- :init
- (setq foo-variable t))
-
- Similarly, ‘:config’ can be used to execute code _after_ a package is
-loaded. In cases where loading is done lazily (*note Loading
-Packages::), this execution is deferred until after the autoload occurs.
-As you might expect, you can use ‘:init’ and ‘:config’ together:
-
- (use-package foo
- :init
- (setq foo-variable t)
- :config
- (foo-mode 1))
-
- The above declarations will all load the ‘foo’ package immediately.
-In most cases, this is not necessary or desirable, as that will slow
-down Emacs startup. Instead, you should try to set things up so that
-packages are only loaded when they are actually needed (autoloading).
-If you have installed a package from GNU ELPA that provides it's own
-autoloads, it is often enough to say:
-
- (use-package foo
- :defer t)
-
-This will avoid loading the package. Now, when you run any autoloaded
-command, the package ‘foo’ is loaded automatically. Package authors
-will make their own decisions about which commands are marked to
-autoload by default.
-
- In some cases, you might need or want to provide your own autoloads.
-The below more complex example autoloads the commands ‘isearch-moccur’
-and ‘isearch-all’ from ‘color-moccur.el’, and binds keys both globally
-and in ‘isearch-mode-map’. When one of these commands are used, the
-package is loaded. At that point, ‘moccur-edit’ is also loaded, to
-allow editing of the ‘moccur’ buffer.
-
- (use-package color-moccur
- :commands (isearch-moccur isearch-all)
- :bind (("M-s O" . moccur)
- :map isearch-mode-map
- ("M-o" . isearch-moccur)
- ("M-O" . isearch-moccur-all))
- :init
- (setq isearch-lazy-highlight t)
- :config
- (use-package moccur-edit))
-
- Some packages will suggest ready-made ‘use-package’ declarations that
-you can use. Where possible, it is a good idea to copy them, and use
-that as a starting point.
-
- That should be enough to get you started!

-3 Loading Packages
-******************
-
-Before use-package can load an Emacs Lisp package, it must be available
-in a directory on your ‘load-path’. When you install packages using the
-built-in ‘install-package’ command, it will do this automatically for
-you. Packages shipped with Emacs (built-in packages) are always
-available.
-
- If you install packages manually, you must make sure they are
-available on your ‘load-path’. *Note (emacs)Lisp Libraries:: for
-details.
-
- Some packages have more than one library. In those cases, you might
-need more than one ‘use-package’ declaration to make sure it is properly
-loaded. For complex configurations, you might also need more than one
-declaration for a package with the same name.
-
- use-package can interface with ‘package.el’ to install packages on
-Emacs start. *Note Installing packages:: for details.

-
-3.1 How and when use-package loads packages
-===========================================
-
-The ‘use-package’ macro either will either load a package immediately,
-or when they are first used (autoloading). In the simplest case, a
-‘use-package’ declaration loads a package when it is evaluated.(1) If
-the declaration is in your init file, this happens automatically each
-time Emacs is started.
-
- For example, the below declaration immediately loads the library
-‘foo’, just like ‘require’ would. If the library ‘foo’ is not available
-in your ‘load-path’, it logs a warning to the ‘*Messages*’ buffer:
-
- (use-package foo)
-
- Note that a "package" is different from an Emacs Lisp "library". The
-above declaration tells use-package to load the _library_ ‘foo.el’,
-which the overwhelming majority of cases also resides in a _package_
-named ‘foo’. But the ‘foo’ package might also contain a library named
-‘foo-extra.el’. If that library is not loaded automatically, you will
-need a separate ‘use-package’ declaration to make sure that it is. This
-manual will often use these terms interchangeably, as this distinction
-does not usually matter, but you should keep it in mind for the cases
-when it does.
-
- The details of how and when you should load a package might differ
-from one package to another. When in doubt, refer to the package
-documentation for details.
-
- ---------- Footnotes ----------
-
- (1) This happens both at run-time and at compile-time. *Note
-Byte-compiling::.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Deferring loading, Next: Forcing loading, Prev: Loading basics, Up: Loading Packages
-
-3.2 Deferring package loading
-=============================
-
-In the examples we have seen so far, use-package loads packages every
-time you start Emacs, even if that package is never used. That will
-make starting Emacs slower. use-package therefore tries to set things
-up in such a way that it only loads packages when a command is first
-used (either with ‘M-x’ or some key binding). This is based on
-autoloading, a full description of which is outside the scope of this
-manual. *Note (elisp)Autoload:: for the full story.
-
- Some ‘use-package’ keywords provide autoload “triggers” that cause a
-package to be loaded when certain events occur. For example, the
-‘:hook’ keyword sets up a trigger that fires when the specified hook is
-run, and then loads the package automatically. The other trigger
-keywords, all of which are described later in this manual, are
-‘:commands’, ‘:bind’, ‘:bind*’, ‘:bind-keymap’, ‘:bind-keymap*’,
-‘:mode’, and ‘:interpreter’.
-
-The ‘:defer’ keyword
---------------------
-
-If you did not specify any autoloading keyword, use-package will fall
-back to loading the package immediately (typically when Emacs is
-starting up). This can be overridden using the ‘:defer’ keyword. It
-takes one boolean argument: a non-‘nil’ value means to stop this package
-from being immediately loaded. Here is an example of using ‘:defer’ to
-postpone loading the package ‘foo’:
-
- (use-package foo
- :defer t)
-
- Using ‘:defer t’ by itself like this is rarely useful. Typically,
-you would only use it together with a keyword like ‘:config’ (*note Lisp
-Configuration::), or ‘:ensure’ (*note Installing packages::).
-
-Defer loading until idle for N seconds
---------------------------------------
-
-You can also give a numeric argument N to ‘:defer’ to specify that a
-package should be loaded (if it hasn't already) after Emacs has been
-idle for N seconds. For example, use this to make use-package load
-‘foo’ after 30 seconds of idle time:
-
- (use-package foo
- :defer 30)
-
-When to use ‘:defer’
---------------------
-
-When using autoloading keywords, there is no need to also use ‘:defer’.
-It doesn't hurt anything to add it in this case, perhaps for extra
-clarity, but it is redundant.
-
- You should use ‘:defer’ to force deferred loading, in cases when
-use-package isn't creating any autoloads for you. For example, you
-might know that some other package will already do something to cause
-your package to load at the appropriate time. This is usually the case
-when you install a package using ‘package-install’, as packages
-installed in this way normally always have their own autoloads already
-set up.
-
-Making ‘:defer t’ the default
------------------------------
-
-If you customize the user option ‘use-package-always-defer’ to
-non-‘nil’, the ‘use-package’ macro will behave as if ‘:defer t’ is
-always specified. This can be overridden for individual declarations
-using either ‘:defer nil’ or ‘:demand t’ (*note Forcing loading::).
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Forcing loading, Next: Conditional loading, Prev: Deferring loading, Up: Loading Packages
-
-3.3 Forcing package to load immediately
-=======================================
-
-The presence of autoloading trigger keywords can be overridden using
-‘:demand t’, which forces the package to load immediately. Thus, even
-if you use an autoloading keyword such as ‘:bind’ (*note Key
-bindings::), adding ‘:demand’ will force loading to occur immediately.
-It will also avoid creating an autoload for the bound key, as it would
-be redundant.
-
- If you specify both ‘:demand t’ and ‘:defer t’, the ‘:defer’ keyword
-will take precedence.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Conditional loading, Next: Loading sequentially, Prev: Forcing loading, Up: Loading Packages
-
-3.4 Loading packages conditionally
-==================================
-
-The ‘:if’, ‘:when’, and ‘:unless’ keywords predicates the loading and
-initialization of packages. They all accept one argument, an Emacs Lisp
-form that is evaluated at run-time.
-
- If the argument of the ‘:if’ keyword evaluates to non-‘nil’, the
-package will be loaded and initialized. The ‘:when’ keyword is provided
-as an alias for ‘:if’. Finally, the ‘:unless’ keyword is the inverse of
-‘:if’, such that ‘:unless foo’ means the same thing as ‘:if (not foo)’.
-
- For example, if you only want to load ‘foo’ in graphical Emacs
-sessions, you could use the following:
-
- (use-package foo
- :if (display-graphic-p))
-
-Some common use cases
----------------------
-
-Here are some common cases for conditional loading, and how to achieve
-them.
-
- • Operating system
-
- This example loads a package only on GNU/Linux. See the
- ‘system-type’ docstring for other valid values.
-
- :if (eq system-type 'gnu/linux)
-
- • Window system
-
- This example loads a package only on macOS and X. See the
- ‘window-system’ docstring for valid values.
-
- :if (memq window-system '(ns x))
-
- • Installed package
-
- This example loads a package only when the ‘foo’ package is
- installed.
-
- :if (package-installed-p 'foo)
-
- • Libraries in ‘load-path’
-
- This example loads a package only when ‘foo.el’ is available in
- your ‘load-path’ (for example, if you installed that file
- manually):
-
- :if (locate-library "foo.el")
-
-Making conditional loading affect ‘:preface’ and ‘:ensure’
-----------------------------------------------------------
-
-If you need to conditionalize a use-package form so that the condition
-occurs before even ‘:ensure’ or ‘:preface’, use ‘when’ around the
-use-package form itself. For example:
-
- (when (memq window-system '(mac ns))
- (use-package foo
- :ensure t))
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Loading sequentially, Next: Load dependencies, Prev: Conditional loading, Up: Loading Packages
-
-3.5 Loading packages in sequence
-================================
-
-Sometimes it only makes sense to configure a package after another one
-has been loaded, because certain variables or functions are not in scope
-until that time. This can achieved with the ‘:after’ keyword, which
-allows a fairly rich description of the exact conditions when loading
-should occur. It takes either a symbol indicating the package name, a
-list of such symbols, or a list of selectors (see below).
-
- Here is an example of using the GNU ELPA packages hydra, ivy, and
-ivy-hydra. Note that ivy-hydra will always be loaded last:
-
- (use-package hydra)
-
- (use-package ivy)
-
- (use-package ivy-hydra
- :after (ivy hydra))
-
- In this case, because the declarations are evaluated in the order
-they occur, the use of ‘:after’ is not strictly necessary. However, if
-‘hydra’ and ‘ivy’ were to be autoloaded, using ‘:after’ guarantees that
-‘ivy-hydra’ is not loaded until it is actually needed. By using
-‘:after’, the above code will also work even if the order of the
-declaration changes. This means that moving things around in your init
-file is less likely to break things.
-
-Using ‘:after’ selectors
-------------------------
-
-The ‘:after’ keyword also accepts a list of selectors. By default,
-‘:after (foo bar)’ is the same as ‘:after (:all foo bar)’, meaning that
-loading of the given package will not happen until both ‘foo’ and ‘bar’
-have been loaded. Here are some of the other possibilities:
-
-:after (foo bar)
-:after (:all foo bar)
-:after (:any foo bar)
-:after (:all (:any foo bar) (:any baz quux))
-:after (:any (:all foo bar) (:all baz quux))
-
- When you nest selectors, such as ‘(:any (:all foo bar) (:all baz
-quux))’, it means that the package will be loaded when either both ‘foo’
-and ‘bar’ have been loaded, or when both ‘baz’ and ‘quux’ have been
-loaded.
-
- Pay attention when setting ‘use-package-always-defer’ to a non-‘nil’
-value, and also using the ‘:after’ keyword. In this case, you will need
-to specify how the declared package is to be loaded: for example, by
-some ‘:bind’. If you are not using one of the keywords that registers
-autoloads, such as ‘:bind’ or ‘:hook’, and your package manager does not
-provide autoloads, it is possible that your package will never be loaded
-if you do not add ‘:demand t’ to those declarations.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Load dependencies, Next: Load path, Prev: Loading sequentially, Up: Loading Packages
-
-3.6 Prevent loading if dependencies are missing
-===============================================
-
-While the ‘:after’ keyword delays loading until the dependencies are
-loaded, the somewhat simpler ‘:requires’ keyword _never_ loads the
-package if the dependencies are not available when the ‘use-package’
-declaration is evaluated. In this context, "available" means that ‘foo’
-is available if ‘(featurep 'foo)’ evaluates to a non-‘nil’ value. For
-example:
-
- (use-package abbrev
- :requires foo)
-
- This is the same as:
-
- (use-package abbrev
- :if (featurep 'foo))
-
- As a convenience, a list of such packages may be specified:
-
- (use-package abbrev
- :requires (foo bar baz))
-
- For more complex logic, such as that supported by ‘:after’, simply
-use ‘:if’ and the appropriate Lisp expression.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Load path, Next: Manual autoloads, Prev: Load dependencies, Up: Loading Packages
-
-3.7 Setting a custom ‘load-path’
-================================
-
-If a package resides in some directory that is not in your ‘load-path’,
-use the ‘:load-path’ keyword to add it. It takes a symbol, a function,
-a string or a list of strings. If the path is relative, it is expanded
-within ‘user-emacs-directory’.
-
- For example:
-
- (use-package ess-site
- :load-path "site-lisp/ess/lisp/"
- :commands R)
-
- Note that when using a symbol or a function to provide a dynamically
-generated list of paths, you must inform the byte-compiler of this
-definition so that the value is available at byte-compilation time.
-This is done by using the special form ‘eval-and-compile’ (as opposed to
-‘eval-when-compile’). Further, this value is fixed at whatever was
-determined during compilation, to avoid looking up the same information
-again on each startup. For example:
-
- (eval-and-compile
- (defun ess-site-load-path ()
- (shell-command "find ~ -path ess/lisp")))
-
- (use-package ess-site
- :load-path (lambda () (list (ess-site-load-path)))
- :commands R)
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Manual autoloads, Prev: Load path, Up: Loading Packages
-
-3.8 Setting up autoloads manually
-=================================
-
-To autoload an interactive command, use the ‘:commands’ keyword. When
-you use the ‘:commands’ keyword, it creates autoloads for those commands
-(which defers loading of the module until they are used). The
-‘:commands’ keyword takes either a symbol or a list of symbols.
-
- The ‘:autoload’ keyword works like ‘:commands’, but is used to
-autoload non-interactive functions. Here is an example:
-
- (use-package org-crypt
- :autoload org-crypt-use-before-save-magic)

-4.1 Using Lisp code for configuring packages
-============================================
-
-The most general way to add customizations are the ‘:preface’, ‘:init’,
-and ‘:config’ keywords. They all accept one or more Emacs Lisp forms,
-up to the next keyword, that are evaluated in order. This lets you add
-arbitrary Lisp code to your ‘use-package’ declarations.
-
- The only difference between these keywords is when they are
-evaluated.

-
-* Preface keyword:: Evaluate code before anything else.
-* Init keyword:: Evaluate code before loading package.
-* Config keyword:: Evaluate code after loading package.
-* Best practices:: When to use ‘:config’, ‘:init’, and ‘:preface’.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Preface keyword, Next: Init keyword, Up: Lisp Configuration
-
-4.1.1 ‘:preface’ is evaluated first
------------------------------------
-
-The ‘:preface’ section is evaluated before anything else, except
-‘:disabled’ and ‘:ensure’. It can be used to establish function and
-variable definitions that will:
-
- 1. Make the byte-compiler happy. It will not complain about functions
- whose definitions are unknown because you have them within a guard
- block.
-
- 2. Define code that can be used in an ‘:if’ test.
-
- Note that whatever is specified within ‘:preface’ is evaluated both
-at load time and at byte-compilation time, in order to ensure that
-definitions are seen by both the Lisp evaluator and the byte-compiler.
-Therefore, you should avoid having any side-effects in your preface, and
-restrict it to symbol declarations and definitions.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Init keyword, Next: Config keyword, Prev: Preface keyword, Up: Lisp Configuration
-
-4.1.2 ‘:init’ is evaluated before loading package
--------------------------------------------------
-
-The ‘:init’ section is evaluated just before the package is loaded.
-Note that the ‘:init’ form is run unconditionally - even if the ‘foo’
-package happens to not exist on your system. You must therefore
-remember to restrict ‘:init’ code to only what would succeed either way.
-‘:init’ also always happens before package load, whether ‘:config’ has
-been deferred or not.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Config keyword, Next: Best practices, Prev: Init keyword, Up: Lisp Configuration
-
-4.1.3 ‘:config’ is evaluated after loading package
---------------------------------------------------
-
-The ‘:config’ section is evaluated after the package has been loaded.
-If the package is loaded immediately, this happens immediately after
-that, but if loading is done lazily (*note Loading Packages::), this is
-deferred until after the package has been loaded.
-
- In general, you should keep ‘:init’ forms as simple and quick as
-possible, and put as much as you can get away with into the ‘:config’
-section. That way, deferred loading can help your Emacs start as
-quickly as possible.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Best practices, Prev: Config keyword, Up: Lisp Configuration
-
-When to use ‘:preface’, ‘:config’ and ‘:init’?
-----------------------------------------------
-
-Where possible, it is better to avoid ‘:preface’, ‘:config’ and ‘:init’.
-Instead, prefer autoloading keywords such as ‘:bind’, ‘:hook’, and
-‘:mode’, as they will take care of setting up autoloads for you without
-any need for boilerplate code. For example, consider the following
-declaration:
-
- (use-package foo
- :init
- (add-hook 'some-hook 'foo-mode))
-
- This has two problems. First, it will unconditionally load the
-package ‘foo’ on startup, which will make things slower. You can fix
-this by adding ‘:defer t’:
-
- (use-package foo
- :defer t
- :init
- (add-hook 'some-hook 'foo-mode))
-
- This is better, as ‘foo’ is now only loaded when it is actually
-needed (that is, when the hook ‘some-hook’ is run).
-
- The second problem is that there is a lot of boilerplate that you
-have to write. In this case, it might not be so bad, but avoiding that
-was what use-package was made to avoid. The better option in this case
-is therefore to use ‘:hook’ (*Note Hooks::), which also implies
-‘:defer t’. The above is thereby reduced down to:
-
- (use-package foo
- :hook some-hook)
-
- use-package will set up autoloading for you, and your Emacs startup
-time will not suffer one bit.

-4.2 Key bindings
-================
-
-One common thing to do when loading a package is to bind a key to
-commands within that module. Without use-package, this would be done
-using a combination of ‘keymap-local-set’, ‘keymap-global-set’ and
-various autoloads. With use-package, you can simplify this using the
-‘:bind’ keyword.
-
-* Menu:
-
-* Global keybindings:: Bindings you can use anywhere.
-* Binding in keymaps:: Bindings for particular modes.
-* Binding to a keymap:: Binding a key to a keymap.
-* Binding to repeat-maps:: Binding repeating keys.
-* Displaying keybindings:: Displaying personal key bindings.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Global keybindings, Next: Binding in keymaps, Up: Key bindings
-
-4.2.1 Global keybindings
-------------------------
-
-To bind keys globally, the ‘:bind’ keyword takes as its argument either
-a single cons or a list of conses. Each cons has the form
-‘(KEY . DEFINITION)’, where KEY is a string indicating the key to bind,
-and DEFINITION is the name of a command (a symbol). Alternatively,
-DEFINITION may be a cons ‘(DESC . COMMAND)’, where DESC is a string
-describing COMMAND, which is the name of a command to bind KEY to. The
-syntax for the keys is similar to the syntax used by the ‘kbd’ function
-(see *note (emacs)Init Rebinding::, for more information).
-
-Using ‘:bind’ with a single cons
---------------------------------
-
-Here is an example of using a single cons:
-
- (use-package ace-jump-mode
- :bind ("C-." . ace-jump-mode))
-
- This does two things: first, it creates an autoload for the
-‘ace-jump-mode’ command and defers loading of the ‘ace-jump-mode’
-package until you actually use it. Second, it binds the key ‘C-.’ to
-that command globally.
-
-Using ‘:bind’ with a list of conses
------------------------------------
-
-Here is an example of using ‘:bind’ with a list of conses:
-
- (use-package hi-lock
- :bind (("M-o l" . highlight-lines-matching-regexp)
- ("M-o r" . highlight-regexp)
- ("M-o w" . highlight-phrase)))
-
-Using special keys
-------------------
-
-Inside key strings, special keys like ‘TAB’ or ‘F1’-‘F12’ have to be
-written inside angle brackets, e.g. ‘"C-<up>"’. Standalone special
-keys (and some combinations) can be written in square brackets,
-e.g. ‘[tab]’ instead of ‘"<tab>"’.
-
- Examples:
-
- (use-package helm
- :bind (("M-x" . helm-M-x)
- ("M-<f5>" . helm-find-files)
- ([f10] . helm-buffers-list)
- ([S-f10] . helm-recentf)))
-
-Providing custom descriptions of commands
------------------------------------------
-
-When binding keys to commands with ‘:bind’, custom descriptions of the
-commands may optionally be provided.
-
- Examples:
-
- (use-package avy
- :bind ("C-:" ("Jump to char" . avy-goto-char)
- "M-g f" ("Jump to line" . avy-goto-line)))
-
-These descriptions can be used by other code that deals with key
-bindings. For example, the GNU ELPA package ‘which-key’ displays them
-when showing key bindings, instead of the plain command names.
-
-Remapping commands
-------------------
-
-Remapping commands with ‘:bind’ and ‘bind-key’ works as expected,
-because when the binding is a vector, it is passed straight to
-‘define-key’. *Note (elisp)Remapping Commands::) for more information
-about command remapping. For example, the following declaration will
-rebind ‘fill-paragraph’ (bound to ‘M-q’ by default) to ‘unfill-toggle’:
-
- (use-package unfill
- :bind ([remap fill-paragraph] . unfill-toggle))
-
-What ‘:bind’ does behind the scenes
------------------------------------
-
-To understand what ‘:bind’ does behind the scenes, it might be useful to
-consider an example:
-
- (use-package ace-jump-mode
- :bind ("C-." . ace-jump-mode))
-
- This could be expressed in a much more verbose way with the
-‘:commands’ and ‘:init’ keywords.
-
- (use-package ace-jump-mode
- :commands ace-jump-mode
- :init
- (bind-key "C-." 'ace-jump-mode))
-
- Without using even the ‘:commands’ keyword, we could also write the
-above like so:
-
- (use-package ace-jump-mode
- :defer t
- :init
- (autoload 'ace-jump-mode "ace-jump-mode" nil t)
- (bind-key "C-." 'ace-jump-mode))
-
- Although these three forms are all equivalent, the first form is
-usually the best, as it will save some typing.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Binding in keymaps, Next: Binding to a keymap, Prev: Global keybindings, Up: Key bindings
-
-4.2.2 Key bindings in local keymaps
------------------------------------
-
-Slightly different from binding a key to a keymap, is binding a key
-_within_ a local keymap that only exists after the package is loaded.
-‘use-package’ supports this with a ‘:map’ modifier, taking the local
-keymap to bind to:
-
- (use-package helm
- :bind (:map helm-command-map
- ("C-c h" . helm-execute-persistent-action)))
-
- The effect of this statement is to wait until ‘helm’ has loaded, and
-then to bind the key ‘C-c h’ to ‘helm-execute-persistent-action’ within
-Helm's local keymap, ‘helm-command-map’.
-
- Multiple uses of ‘:map’ may be specified. Any binding occurring
-before the first use of ‘:map’ are applied to the global keymap:
-
- (use-package term
- :bind (("C-c t" . term)
- :map term-mode-map
- ("M-p" . term-send-up)
- ("M-n" . term-send-down)
- :map term-raw-map
- ("M-o" . other-window)
- ("M-p" . term-send-up)
- ("M-n" . term-send-down)))
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Binding to a keymap, Next: Binding to repeat-maps, Prev: Binding in keymaps, Up: Key bindings
-
-4.2.3 Binding to keymaps
-------------------------
-
-Normally ‘:bind’ expects that commands are functions that will be
-autoloaded from the given package. However, this does not work if one
-of those commands is actually a keymap, since keymaps are not functions,
-and cannot be autoloaded using the built-in ‘autoload’ function.
-
- To handle this case, ‘use-package’ offers a special, limited variant
-of ‘:bind’ called ‘:bind-keymap’. The only difference is that the
-"commands" bound to by ‘:bind-keymap’ must be keymaps defined in the
-package, rather than command functions. This is handled behind the
-scenes by generating custom code that loads the package containing the
-keymap, and then re-executes your keypress after the first load, to
-reinterpret that keypress as a prefix key.
-
- For example:
-
- (use-package foo
- :bind-keymap ("C-c p" . foo-command-map))
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Binding to repeat-maps, Next: Displaying keybindings, Prev: Binding to a keymap, Up: Key bindings
-
-4.2.4 Binding to repeat-maps
-----------------------------
-
-A special case of binding within a local keymap is when that keymap is
-used by ‘repeat-mode’ *note (emacs)Repeating::. These keymaps are
-usually defined specifically for this. Using the ‘:repeat-map’ keyword,
-and passing it a name for the map it defines, will bind all following
-keys inside that map, and (by default) set the ‘repeat-map’ property of
-each bound command to that map.
-
- The following example creates a keymap called
-‘git-gutter+-repeat-map’, makes four bindings in it as above, then sets
-the ‘repeat-map’ property of each bound command (‘git-gutter+-next-hunk’
-‘git-gutter+-previous-hunk’, ‘git-gutter+-stage-hunks’ and
-‘git-gutter+-revert-hunk’) to that keymap.
-
- (use-package git-gutter+
- :bind
- (:repeat-map git-gutter+-repeat-map
- ("n" . git-gutter+-next-hunk)
- ("p" . git-gutter+-previous-hunk)
- ("s" . git-gutter+-stage-hunks)
- ("r" . git-gutter+-revert-hunk)))
-
- Specifying ‘:exit’ inside the scope of ‘:repeat-map’ will prevent the
-‘repeat-map’ property being set, so that the command can be used from
-within the repeat map, but after it using it the repeat map will no
-longer be available. This is useful for commands often used at the end
-of a series of repeated commands:
-
- (use-package git-gutter+
- :bind
- (:repeat-map my/git-gutter+-repeat-map
- ("n" . git-gutter+-next-hunk)
- ("p" . git-gutter+-previous-hunk)
- ("s" . git-gutter+-stage-hunks)
- ("r" . git-gutter+-revert-hunk)
- :exit
- ("c" . magit-commit-create)
- ("C" . magit-commit)
- ("b" . magit-blame)))
-
- Specifying ‘:continue’ _forces_ setting the ‘repeat-map’ property
-(just like _not_ specifying ‘:exit’), so the above snippet is equivalent
-to:
-
- (use-package git-gutter+
- :bind
- (:repeat-map my/git-gutter+-repeat-map
- :exit
- ("c" . magit-commit-create)
- ("C" . magit-commit)
- ("b" . magit-blame)
- :continue
- ("n" . git-gutter+-next-hunk)
- ("p" . git-gutter+-previous-hunk)
- ("s" . git-gutter+-stage-hunks)
- ("r" . git-gutter+-revert-hunk)))

-
-4.2.5 Displaying personal keybinding
-------------------------------------
-
-The ‘:bind’ keyword uses the ‘bind-keys’ macro from the ‘bind-key.el’
-library to set up keybindings. It keeps track of all keybindings you
-make, so that you can display them separately from the default
-keybindings.
-
- Use ‘M-x describe-personal-keybindings’ to see all keybindings you've
-set using either the ‘:bind’ keyword or the ‘bind-keys’ macro.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Hooks, Next: Modes and interpreters, Prev: Key bindings, Up: Configuring Packages
-
-4.3 Hooks
-=========
-
-The ‘:hook’ keyword allows adding functions onto hooks. It takes one
-argument of the form HOOKS, specifying one or more functions to add to
-one or more hooks. For the purposes of ‘:hook’, the name of hook
-variables should always exclude the ‘-hook’ suffix. It is appended
-automatically for you, to save some typing.
-
- For example, consider the following ‘use-package’ declaration that
-sets up autoloads for ‘company-mode’ from the ‘company’ package, and
-adds ‘company-mode’ to ‘prog-mode-hook’:
-
- (use-package company
- :commands company-mode
- :init
- (add-hook 'prog-mode-hook #'company-mode))
-
- Using ‘:hook’, this can be simplified to:
-
- (use-package company
- :hook (prog-mode . company-mode))
-
- Here, ‘:hook’ will automatically set up autoloads for the
-‘company-mode’ command, so there is no need to use ‘:commands’.
-
- The ‘:hook’ keyword will also assume that the name of the function
-you want to add is the same as the package name with ‘-mode’ appended to
-it. Taking this into account, you can simplify the above to the
-equivalent:
-
- (use-package company
- :hook prog-mode)
-
- You can also provide a list of hooks. When multiple hooks should be
-applied, the following examples are all equivalent:
-
- (use-package company
- :hook (prog-mode text-mode))
-
- (use-package company
- :hook ((prog-mode text-mode) . company-mode))
-
- (use-package company
- :hook ((prog-mode . company-mode)
- (text-mode . company-mode)))
-
- (use-package company
- :commands company-mode
- :init
- (add-hook 'prog-mode-hook #'company-mode)
- (add-hook 'text-mode-hook #'company-mode))
-
- One common mistake when using ‘:hook’ is to forget to omit the
-‘-hook’ suffix, which, as already explained, is appended automatically.
-Therefore, the following will not work, as it attempts to add a function
-to non-existent ‘prog-mode-hook-hook’:
-
- ;; DOES NOT WORK
- (use-package ace-jump-mode
- :hook (prog-mode-hook . ace-jump-mode))
-
- If you do not like this behavior, you can customize the user option
-‘use-package-hook-name-suffix’ to ‘nil’. The value of this variable is
-‘"-hook"’ by default.
-
- The use of ‘:hook’, as with ‘:bind’, ‘:mode’, ‘:interpreter’, etc.,
-causes the functions being hooked to implicitly be read as ‘:commands’.
-This means that they will establish interactive ‘autoload’ definitions
-for that module, if not already defined as functions), and so ‘:defer t’
-is also implied by ‘:hook’.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Modes and interpreters, Next: Magic handlers, Prev: Hooks, Up: Configuring Packages
-
-4.4 Modes and interpreters
-==========================
-
-Similar to ‘:bind’, you can use ‘:mode’ and ‘:interpreter’ to establish
-a deferred binding within the ‘auto-mode-alist’ and
-‘interpreter-mode-alist’ variables. The specifier to either keyword can
-be a cons cell, a list of cons cells, or a string or regexp.
-
- The following example reproduces the default ‘ruby-mode’
-configuration, exactly as it is in Emacs out-of-the-box. That mode is
-enabled automatically when a file whose name matches the regexp
-‘"\\.rb\\'"’ (a file with the ‘.rb’ extension), or when the first line
-of the file (known as the "shebang") matches the string ‘"ruby"’:
-
- (use-package ruby-mode
- :mode "\\.rb\\'"
- :interpreter "ruby")
-
- The default ‘python-mode’ configuration can be reproduced using the
-below declaration. Note that the package that should be loaded differs
-from the mode name in this case, so we must use a cons:
-
- ;; The package is "python" but the mode is "python-mode":
- (use-package python
- :mode ("\\.py\\'" . python-mode)
- :interpreter ("python" . python-mode))
-
- Both the ‘:mode’ and ‘:interpreter’ keywords also accept a list of
-regexps:
-
- (use-package foo
- ;; Equivalent to "\\(ba[rz]\\)\\'":
- :mode ("\\.bar\\'" "\\.baz\\'")
- ;; Equivalent to "\\(foo[ab]\\)":
- :interpreter ("fooa" "foob"))
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Magic handlers, Next: User options, Prev: Modes and interpreters, Up: Configuring Packages
-
-4.5 Magic handlers
-==================
-
-Similar to ‘:mode’ and ‘:interpreter’, you can also use ‘:magic’ and
-‘:magic-fallback’ to cause certain function to be run if the beginning
-of a file matches a given regular expression. The difference between
-‘:magic’ and ‘:magic-fallback’, is that the latter has a lower priority
-than ‘:mode’.
-
- Here is an example:
-
- (use-package pdf-tools
- :magic ("%PDF" . pdf-view-mode)
- :config
- (pdf-tools-install :no-query))
-
- This registers an autoloaded command for ‘pdf-view-mode’, defers
-loading of ‘pdf-tools’, and runs ‘pdf-view-mode’ if the beginning of a
-buffer matches the string ‘"%PDF"’.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: User options, Next: Faces, Prev: Magic handlers, Up: Configuring Packages
-
-4.6 User options
-================
-
-In Emacs, you normally set customizable variables (user options) using
-the ‘M-x customize’ interface (*note (emacs)Easy Customization::). We
-recommended this method for most users. However, it is also possible to
-set them in your ‘use-package’ declarations by using the ‘:custom’
-keyword.
-
- (use-package comint
- :defer t
- :custom
- (comint-buffer-maximum-size 20000 "Increase comint buffer size.")
- (comint-prompt-read-only t "Make the prompt read only."))
-
- This is better than using ‘setq’ in a ‘:config’ block, as
-customizable variables might have some code associated with it that
-Emacs will execute when you assign values to them. In Emacs 29, there
-is also the new ‘setopt’ macro that does this for you.
-
- Note that the values customized using this keyword are _not_ saved in
-the standard Emacs ‘custom-file’. You should therefore set each user
-option using either the ‘:custom’ keyword _or_ ‘M-x customize-option’,
-which will save customized values in the Emacs ‘custom-file’. Do not
-use both for the same variable, as this risk having conflicting values
-in your use-package declaration and your ‘custom-file’. This can lead
-to problems that are both tricky and tedious to debug.

-4.8 Hiding minor modes with diminish and delight
-================================================
-
-‘use-package’ supports the diminish and delight packages, both of which
-make it possible remove or change minor mode strings in your mode-line.
-Which one to use is up to you, but you should normally only use one or
-the other - never both.(1) To use either of them, you must first
-install the corresponding package from GNU ELPA.

-* Menu:

-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Diminish, Next: Delight, Up: Hiding minor modes
-
-4.8.1 Diminish
---------------
-
-When diminish(1) is installed, you can use the ‘:diminish’ keyword. If
-diminish is not installed, the ‘:diminish’ keyword does nothing.
-
- First, add the following declaration to the beginning of your init
-file. The optional ‘:ensure t’ makes sure the package is installed if
-it isn't already (*note Installing packages::).
-
- (use-package diminish :ensure t)
-
- The ‘:diminish’ keyword takes either a minor mode symbol, a cons of
-the symbol and its replacement string, or just a replacement string, in
-which case the minor mode symbol is guessed to be the package name with
-‘-mode’ appended at the end:
-
- (use-package abbrev
- :diminish abbrev-mode
- :config
- (if (file-exists-p abbrev-file-name)
- (quietly-read-abbrev-file)))
-

-File: use-package.info, Node: Delight, Prev: Diminish, Up: Hiding minor modes
-
-4.8.2 Delight
--------------
-
-When delight(1) is installed, you can use the ‘:delight’ keyword. If
-delight is not installed, the ‘:delight’ keyword does nothing.
-
- First, add the following declaration to the beginning of your init
-file. The optional ‘:ensure t’ makes sure the package is installed if
-it isn't already (*note Installing packages::).
-
- (use-package delight :ensure t)
-
- The ‘:delight’ keyword takes a minor mode symbol, a replacement
-string, or quoted mode line data (in which case the minor mode symbol is
-assumed to be the package name with ‘-mode’ appended at the end), both
-of these, or several lists of both. *Note (elisp)Mode Line Data::. If
-no arguments are provided, the default mode name is hidden completely.
-
- For example, the following hides everything for the ‘foo-mode’ minor
-mode in the ‘foo’ package:
-
- (use-package foo
- :delight)
-
- If the mode name doesn't match the package name with ‘-mode’
-appended, provide a symbol instead. For example, the following hides
-‘auto-revert-mode’ from the mode line:
-
- ;; Don't show anything for auto-revert-mode, which doesn't match
- ;; its package name.
- (use-package autorevert
- :delight auto-revert-mode)
-
- You can also run arbitrary Lisp code. For example, to replace
-‘foo-mode’ with the value of the current buffer:
-
- (use-package foo
- :delight '(:eval buffer-file-name))
-
- Here is an example of hiding several built-in minor modes:
-
- ;; Completely hide visual-line-mode and change auto-fill-mode to " AF".
- (use-package emacs
- :delight
- (auto-fill-function " AF")
- (visual-line-mode))

-5 Installing packages automatically
-***********************************
-
-The standard Emacs package manager is documented in the Emacs manual
-(*note (emacs)Package Installation::). The ‘use-package’ macro provides
-the ‘:ensure’ and ‘:pin’ keywords, that interface with that package
-manager to automatically install packages. This is particularly useful
-if you use your init file on more than one system.

-
-5.1 Installing package
-======================
-
-The ‘:ensure’ keyword makes use-package ask the Emacs package manager to
-install a package if it is not already present on your system.
-
- For example:
-
- (use-package magit
- :ensure t)
-
- If you need to install a different package from the one named by
-‘use-package’, you can use a symbol:
-
- (use-package tex
- :ensure auctex)
-
- You can customize the user option ‘use-package-always-ensure’ to
-non-‘nil’ if you want this behavior to be global for all packages.
-
- (require 'use-package-ensure)
- (setq use-package-always-ensure t)
-
-You can override the above setting for a single package by adding
-‘:ensure nil’ to its declaration.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Pinning packages, Next: Other package managers, Prev: Install package, Up: Installing packages
-
-5.2 Pinning packages using ‘:pin’
-=================================
-
-use-package can pin a package to a specific archive using the ‘:pin’
-keyword.(1) This allows you to mix and match packages from different
-archives. The primary use-case for this is preferring to install
-packages from GNU ELPA or NonGNU ELPA (indicated by ‘gnu’ and ‘nongnu’,
-respectively), while installing specific packages from third-party
-archives.
-
- For example:
-
- (use-package company
- :ensure t
- :pin gnu) ; GNU ELPA
-
- Unfortunately, the third-party archive MELPA uses a versioning scheme
-based on dates, which means that packages from that archive are always
-preferred. If you are using that archive, we strongly encourage you to
-customize ‘use-package-always-pin’ to ‘nongnu’. This guarantees that
-you are using a version of that package that has been specifically
-marked for release by its developer, and not a development snapshot.
-
- If you want to manually keep a package updated and ignore upstream
-updates, you can pin it to ‘manual’. This will work as long as you have
-not customized a repository to use that name in the ‘package-archives’
-variable.
-
- Example:
-
- (use-package org
- :ensure t
- ;; ignore org-mode from upstream and use a manually installed version
- :pin manual)
-
- ‘use-package’ signals an error if you try to pin a package to an
-archive that is not configured using ‘package-archives’ (except from the
-special ‘manual’ archive).
-
- ---------- Footnotes ----------
-
- (1) The ‘:pin’ keyword has no effect on Emacs versions older than
-24.4.

-
-5.3 Non-standard package managers
-=================================
-
-By default, use-package assumes that you are using the built-in
-‘package.el’ package manager. We expect that most users will find that
-it is more than capable enough, even for advanced use cases.
-
- However, some users might prefer to use a third-party package manager
-for a specific circumstance or use case. By setting the user option
-‘use-package-ensure-function’ to the name of a function, you can direct
-‘:ensure’ to use a different package manager for installing packages.
-
- For more details, please see the documentation of the package manager
-you are using. If you run into any bugs, it is often best to report
-them directly to the developers of that package manager.

-6 Byte-compiling your init file
-*******************************
-
-Some users might want to byte-compile their init file to make Emacs
-startup even faster. This is not recommended in most cases, as the
-speed-up is often too small to be worth it, and can lead to confusion if
-the byte-compiled files are out-of-date. If you still want to do it,
-read on.
-
- ‘use-package’ always loads every library that it can while a file is
-being byte-compiled. This helps silence spurious warnings about unknown
-variables and functions.
-
- However, there are times when this is just not enough. For those
-times, use the ‘:defines’ and ‘:functions’ keywords to introduce dummy
-variable and function declarations solely for the sake of silencing
-byte-compiler warnings. For example:
-
- (use-package texinfo
- :defines texinfo-section-list
- :commands texinfo-mode
- :init
- (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.texi$" . texinfo-mode)))
-
- If you need to silence a missing function warning, you can use
-‘:functions’:
-
- (use-package ruby-mode
- :mode "\\.rb\\'"
- :interpreter "ruby"
- :functions inf-ruby-keys
- :config
- (defun my-ruby-mode-hook ()
- (require 'inf-ruby)
- (inf-ruby-keys))
-
- (add-hook 'ruby-mode-hook 'my-ruby-mode-hook))
-
- Normally, ‘use-package’ will load each package at compile time before
-compiling the configuration, to ensure that any necessary symbols are in
-scope to satisfy the byte-compiler. At times this can cause problems,
-since a package may have special loading requirements, and all that you
-want to use ‘use-package’ for is to add a configuration to the
-‘eval-after-load’ hook. In such cases, use the ‘:no-require’ keyword:
-
- (use-package foo
- :no-require t
- :config
- (message "Evaluate this immediately after loading `foo'"))

-7 Troubleshooting
-*****************
-
-If an error occurs while initializing or configuring a package, this
-will not stop your Emacs from loading. Instead, ‘use-package’ captures
-the error and reports it in a special ‘*Warnings*’ popup buffer, so that
-you can debug the situation in an otherwise functional Emacs.
-
- If you are having trouble when starting Emacs, you can pass Emacs the
-‘--debug-init’ command line flag. *Note (emacs)Initial Options::. To
-get even more information when using that flag, add the following to
-your init file (these options are documented below):
-
- (when init-file-debug
- (setq use-package-verbose t
- use-package-expand-minimally nil
- use-package-compute-statistics t
- debug-on-error t))
-
- Since ‘use-package’ is a macro, the first step when you need to dig
-deeper is usually to see what Emacs Lisp code your declaration expands
-to. You can either use the command ‘M-x pp-macroexpand-last-sexp’, or
-wrap the use-package declaration in ‘macroexpand’ and evaluate it. It
-is a good idea to include their output in any bugs you file for
-use-package.

-
-7.1 Options that help when troubleshooting
-==========================================
-
-By default, use-package will attempts to catch and report errors that
-occur during expansion of use-package declarations in your init file.
-Customize the user option ‘use-package-expand-minimally’ to a non-‘nil’
-value to disable this checking.
-
- This behavior may be overridden locally using the ‘:catch’ keyword.
-If ‘t’ or ‘nil’, it enables or disables catching errors at load time.
-It can also be a function taking two arguments: the keyword being
-processed at the time the error was encountered, and the error object
-(as generated by ‘condition-case’). For example:
-
- (use-package example
- ;; Note that errors are never trapped in the preface, since doing so would
- ;; hide definitions from the byte-compiler.
- :preface (message "I'm here at byte-compile and load time")
- :init (message "I'm always here at startup")
- :config
- (message "I'm always here after the package is loaded")
- (error "oops")
- ;; Don't try to (require 'example), this is just an example!
- :no-require t
- :catch (lambda (keyword err)
- (message (error-message-string err))))
-
- Evaluating the above form will print these messages:
-
-I’m here at byte-compile and load time
-I’m always here at startup
-Configuring package example...
-I’m always here after the package is loaded
-oops
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Gathering Statistics, Next: Disabling a package, Prev: Troubleshooting Options, Up: Troubleshooting
-
-7.2 Gathering Statistics
-========================
-
-When a package is loaded, and if you have ‘use-package-verbose’ set to
-‘t’, or if the package takes longer than 0.1 seconds to load, you will
-see a message to indicate this loading activity in the ‘*Messages*’
-buffer. The same will happen for configuration, or ‘:config’ blocks,
-that take longer than 0.1 seconds to execute.
-
- If you'd like to see a summary how many packages you've loaded, what
-stage of initialization they've reached, and how much aggregate time
-they've spent (roughly), you can customize the user option
-‘use-package-compute-statistics’ to a non-‘nil’ value. Then reload your
-packages, normally by restarting Emacs, to make sure that use-package
-can gather statistics for all your packages.
-
- Run the command ‘M-x use-package-report’ to see the results. The
-buffer displayed is a tabulated list. To sort rows based on a
-particular column, move point to it and type ‘S’, or click the column
-name at the top of the buffer on graphical displays.
-
- To reset all statistics that use-package has gathered for the current
-Emacs invocation, run the command ‘M-x use-package-reset-statistics’.
-
- Note that, if you are setting ‘use-package-compute-statistics’
-directly in your init file, and not with ‘customize’, you must do this
-after loading ‘use-package’, but before any ‘use-package’ forms.
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: Disabling a package, Prev: Gathering Statistics, Up: Troubleshooting
-
-7.3 Disabling a package
-=======================
-
-The ‘:disabled’ keyword inhibits loading a package, and all it's
-customizations. It is equivalent to commenting out or deleting the
-definition.
-
- You could use this, for example, to temporarily disable a package
-that you're having difficulties with, or to avoid loading a package that
-you're not currently using.
-
- This example disables the ‘foo’ package:
-
- (use-package foo
- :disabled)
-
- When byte-compiling your init file, use-package omits disabled
-declarations from the output entirely, in order to make Emacs startup
-faster.

-Appendix A Keyword extensions
-*****************************
-
-use-package is based on an extensible framework that makes it easy for
-package authors to add new keywords, or modify the behavior of existing
-keywords.
-
- Some keyword extensions are included with ‘use-package’, and can be
-optionally enabled.
-
-* Menu:
-
-* use-package-ensure-system-package::
-* Creating an extension::
-
-
-File: use-package.info, Node: use-package-ensure-system-package, Next: Creating an extension, Up: Keyword extensions
-
-A.1 :use-package-ensure-system-package
-======================================
-
-The ‘:ensure-system-package’ keyword allows you to ensure certain
-executables are available on your system alongside your package
-declarations.(1)
-
- To use this extension, add this immediately after loading
-‘use-package’:
-
- (use-package use-package-ensure-system-package)
-
- Now you can use the ‘:ensure-system-package’ keyword. Here's an
-example usage:
-
- (use-package foo
- :ensure-system-package foo)
-
- This will expect a global binary package to exist called ‘foo’. If
-it does not, it will use your system package manager to attempt an
-install of a binary by the same name asynchronously. This requires the
-GNU ELPA package ‘system-packages’
-(https://gitlab.com/jabranham/system-packages), so for this to work you
-must install that first.
-
- One way of making sure it is installed is with ‘use-package’ together
-with ‘:ensure’.
-
- (use-package system-packages
- :ensure t)
-
- For example, on a ‘Debian GNU/Linux’ system, this would call ‘apt-get
-install foo’.
-
- If the package is named differently than the binary, you can use a
-cons in the form of ‘(binary . package-name)’. For example:
-
- (use-package foo
- :ensure-system-package
- (foocmd . foo))
-
- On a ‘Debian GNU/Linux’ system, this would call ‘apt install foo’ if
-Emacs could not locate the executable ‘foocmd’.(2)
-
- ‘:ensure-system-package’ can also take a cons where its ‘cdr’ is a
-string that will get called by ‘(async-shell-command)’ to install if it
-isn't found. This does not depend upon any external package.
-
- (use-package tern
- :ensure-system-package (tern . "npm i -g tern"))
-
- To install several packages, you can pass in a list of conses:
-
- (use-package ruby-mode
- :ensure-system-package
- ((rubocop . "gem install rubocop")
- (ruby-lint . "gem install ruby-lint")
- (ripper-tags . "gem install ripper-tags")
- (pry . "gem install pry")))
-
- Finally, in case the package dependency does not provide a global
-executable, you can ensure packages exist by checking the presence of a
-file path by providing a string like so:
-
- (use-package dash-at-point
- :if (eq system-type 'darwin)
- :ensure-system-package
- ("/Applications/Dash.app" . "brew cask install dash"))
-
- ‘:ensure-system-package’ will use ‘system-packages-install’ to
-install system packages, except where a custom command has been
-specified, in which case it will be executed verbatim by
-‘async-shell-command’.
-
- The user options ‘system-packages-package-manager’ and
-‘system-packages-use-sudo’ are honored, but not for custom commands.
-Custom commands should include the call to sudo in the command if
-needed.
-
- ---------- Footnotes ----------
-
- (1) On macOS, you will want to make sure ‘exec-path’ is cognisant of
-all binary package names that you would like to ensure are installed.
-The ‘exec-path-from-shell’
-(https://github.com/purcell/exec-path-from-shell) package is often a
-good way to do this.
-
- (2) For manual testing, you could use the ‘executable-find’ function,
-which is what ‘system-packages’ uses internally.

-
-A.2 How to create an extension keyword
-======================================
-
-This section describes how to create a new keyword.
-
- 1. Add the keyword.
-
- The first step is to add your keyword at the right place in
- ‘use-package-keywords’. This list determines the order in which
- things will happen in the expanded code. You should never change
- this order, but it gives you a framework within which to decide
- when your keyword should fire.
-
- 2. Create a normalizer.
-
- The job of the normalizer is take a list of arguments (possibly
- ‘nil’), and turn it into the single argument (which could still be
- a list) that should appear in the final property list used by
- ‘use-package’.
-
- Define a normalizer for your keyword by defining a function named
- after the keyword, for example:
-
- (defun use-package-normalize/:pin (name-symbol keyword args)
- (use-package-only-one (symbol-name keyword) args
- (lambda (label arg)
- (cond
- ((stringp arg) arg)
- ((symbolp arg) (symbol-name arg))
- (t
- (use-package-error
- ":pin wants an archive name (a string)"))))))
-
- 3. Create a handler.
-
- Once you have a normalizer, you must create a handler for the
- keyword.
-
- Handlers can affect the handling of keywords in two ways. First,
- it can modify the ‘state’ plist before recursively processing the
- remaining keywords, to influence keywords that pay attention to the
- state (one example is the state keyword ‘:deferred’, not to be
- confused with the ‘use-package’ keyword ‘:defer’). Then, once the
- remaining keywords have been handled and their resulting forms
- returned, the handler may manipulate, extend, or just ignore those
- forms.
-
- The task of each handler is to return a _list of forms_
- representing code to be inserted. It does not need to be a ‘progn’
- list, as this is handled automatically in other places. Thus it is
- common to see the idiom of using ‘use-package-concat’ to add new
- functionality before or after a code body, so that only the minimum
- code necessary is emitted as the result of a ‘use-package’
- expansion.
-
- This is an example handler:
-
- (defun use-package-handler/:pin (name-symbol keyword archive-name rest state)
- (let ((body (use-package-process-keywords name-symbol rest state)))
- ;; This happens at macro expansion time, not when the expanded code is
- ;; compiled or evaluated.
- (if (null archive-name)
- body
- (use-package-pin-package name-symbol archive-name)
- (use-package-concat
- body
- `((push '(,name-symbol . ,archive-name)
- package-pinned-packages))))))
-
- 4. Test it.
-
- After the keyword has been inserted into ‘use-package-keywords’,
- and a normalizer and a handler defined, you can now test it by
- seeing how usages of the keyword will expand. For this, use ‘M-x
- pp-macroexpand-last-sexp’ with the cursor set immediately after the
- ‘(use-package ...)’ expression.

-
- Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
- of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
-
- 0. PREAMBLE
-
- The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
- functional and useful document “free” in the sense of freedom: to
- assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
- with or without modifying it, either commercially or
- noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the
- author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not
- being considered responsible for modifications made by others.
-
- This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
- works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
- It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
- license designed for free software.
-
- We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
- free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
- free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
- that the software does. But this License is not limited to
- software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
- of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We
- recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
- instruction or reference.
-
- 1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
-
- This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium,
- that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can
- be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice
- grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration,
- to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The
- "Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member
- of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you". You accept
- the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way
- requiring permission under copyright law.
-
- A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
- Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
- modifications and/or translated into another language.
-
- A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section
- of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
- publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
- subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could
- fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document
- is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not
- explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of
- historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or
- of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position
- regarding them.
-
- The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose
- titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the
- notice that says that the Document is released under this License.
- If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it
- is not allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may
- contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify
- any Invariant Sections then there are none.
-
- The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are
- listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
- that says that the Document is released under this License. A
- Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may
- be at most 25 words.
-
- A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
- represented in a format whose specification is available to the
- general public, that is suitable for revising the document
- straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed
- of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely
- available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text
- formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats
- suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise
- Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has
- been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by
- readers is not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if
- used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not
- "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
-
- Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
- ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
- SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming
- simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification.
- Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG.
- Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and
- edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which
- the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and
- the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
- processors for output purposes only.
-
- The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
- plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
- material this License requires to appear in the title page. For
- works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title
- Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
- work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
-
- The "publisher" means any person or entity that distributes copies
- of the Document to the public.
-
- A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document
- whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses
- following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ
- stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as
- "Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".)
- To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the
- Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according
- to this definition.
-
- The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice
- which states that this License applies to the Document. These
- Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in
- this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
- implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and
- has no effect on the meaning of this License.
-
- 2. VERBATIM COPYING
-
- You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
- commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
- copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
- applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
- add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You
- may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
- or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However,
- you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you
- distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the
- conditions in section 3.
-
- You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
- and you may publicly display copies.
-
- 3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
-
- If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly
- have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and
- the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must
- enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all
- these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
- Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly
- and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The
- front cover must present the full title with all words of the title
- equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the
- covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as
- long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these
- conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects.
-
- If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
- legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
- reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
- adjacent pages.
-
- If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
- numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable
- Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with
- each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general
- network-using public has access to download using public-standard
- network protocols a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free
- of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take
- reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque
- copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will
- remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one
- year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or
- through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public.
-
- It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
- the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies,
- to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the
- Document.
-
- 4. MODIFICATIONS
-
- You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
- under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
- release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the
- Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing
- distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever
- possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in
- the Modified Version:
-
- A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
- distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous
- versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the
- History section of the Document). You may use the same title
- as a previous version if the original publisher of that
- version gives permission.
-
- B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
- entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in
- the Modified Version, together with at least five of the
- principal authors of the Document (all of its principal
- authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you
- from this requirement.
-
- C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
- Modified Version, as the publisher.
-
- D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
-
- E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
- adjacent to the other copyright notices.
-
- F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
- notice giving the public permission to use the Modified
- Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in
- the Addendum below.
-
- G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
- Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
- license notice.
-
- H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
-
- I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title,
- and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
- authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the
- Title Page. If there is no section Entitled "History" in the
- Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and
- publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add
- an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the
- previous sentence.
-
- J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
- for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
- likewise the network locations given in the Document for
- previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the
- "History" section. You may omit a network location for a work
- that was published at least four years before the Document
- itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers
- to gives permission.
-
- K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
- Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section
- all the substance and tone of each of the contributor
- acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
-
- L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered
- in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the
- equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
-
- M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section
- may not be included in the Modified Version.
-
- N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
- "Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant
- Section.
-
- O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
-
- If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
- appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
- material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate
- some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their
- titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's
- license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other
- section titles.
-
- You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
- nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
- parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text
- has been approved by an organization as the authoritative
- definition of a standard.
-
- You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
- and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of
- the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage
- of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
- through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document
- already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added
- by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on
- behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old
- one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added
- the old one.
-
- The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
- License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
- assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
-
- 5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
-
- You may combine the Document with other documents released under
- this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
- modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all
- of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
- unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
- combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all
- their Warranty Disclaimers.
-
- The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
- multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
- copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
- but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
- by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
- original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
- unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
- the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
- combined work.
-
- In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled
- "History" in the various original documents, forming one section
- Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled
- "Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You
- must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements."
-
- 6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
-
- You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
- documents released under this License, and replace the individual
- copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
- that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
- rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents
- in all other respects.
-
- You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
- distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
- a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this
- License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that
- document.
-
- 7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
-
- A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
- separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a
- storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the
- copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the
- legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual
- works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this
- License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which
- are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
-
- If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
- copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half
- of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed
- on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
- electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic
- form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket
- the whole aggregate.
-
- 8. TRANSLATION
-
- Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
- distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
- 4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
- permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
- translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
- original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
- translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
- Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also
- include the original English version of this License and the
- original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a
- disagreement between the translation and the original version of
- this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will
- prevail.
-
- If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
- "Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to
- Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the
- actual title.
-
- 9. TERMINATION
-
- You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
- except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
- otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void,
- and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
-
- However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
- license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
- provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
- finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the
- copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some
- reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
-
- Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
- reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
- violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
- received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from
- that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days
- after your receipt of the notice.
-
- Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate
- the licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you
- under this License. If your rights have been terminated and not
- permanently reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the
- same material does not give you any rights to use it.
-
- 10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
-
- The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
- the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
- versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
- differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
- <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
-
- Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
- number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
- version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you
- have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
- that specified version or of any later version that has been
- published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the
- Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may
- choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free
- Software Foundation. If the Document specifies that a proxy can
- decide which future versions of this License can be used, that
- proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version permanently
- authorizes you to choose that version for the Document.
-
- 11. RELICENSING
-
- "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site" (or "MMC Site") means any
- World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
- provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works. A
- public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.
- A "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration" (or "MMC") contained in the
- site means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC
- site.
-
- "CC-BY-SA" means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0
- license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit
- corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco,
- California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license
- published by that same organization.
-
- "Incorporate" means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or
- in part, as part of another Document.
-
- An MMC is "eligible for relicensing" if it is licensed under this
- License, and if all works that were first published under this
- License somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently
- incorporated in whole or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover
- texts or invariant sections, and (2) were thus incorporated prior
- to November 1, 2008.
-
- The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the
- site under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1,
- 2009, provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.
-
-ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
-====================================================
-
-To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
-the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
-notices just after the title page:
-
- Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME.
- Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
- under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3
- or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
- with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
- Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
- Free Documentation License''.
-
- If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover
-Texts, replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
-
- with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with
- the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts
- being LIST.
-
- If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
-combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
-situation.
-
- If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
-recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of free
-software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to permit
-their use in free software.
