Preclude

Personal functionality or variables that aid my workflow or are just cool.

Variables

Some user variables

(setq user-full-name "Aryadev Chavali"
      user-mail-address "aryadevchavali1@gmail.com")

Reload

Reload the doom session by brute force fully loading the "config.el" file in the doom private directory.

(defun dx:reload ()
  "Reload instance of doom"
  (interactive)
  (load-file (concat doom-private-dir "config.el")))

Change theme

Allow user to set a theme from a limited set of candidates, based on "dx:theme-list".

• Themes sanctioned by me:

  • doom-solarized-dark: just the right everything. best for day.
  • doom-gruvbox: good contrast, better for night.
  • doom-city-lights: Eh contrast, quite dark
  • doom-outrun-electric: Interesting colour palette
  • doom-vibrant: Good contrast, bit lighter
  • doom-molokai: hacker style
  • doom-solarized-light: Light orange theme that's actually okay on the eyes
  • doom-acario-light: Light theme with not bad colours

• Themes not sanctioned:

  • Light themes other than solarized-light and acario
  • Horrid low contrast ones with no colour. Grayscale particularly. I can't handle those.

(setq dx:themes/theme-list '(doom-solarized-dark
                                   doom-gruvbox doom-city-lights
                                   doom-outrun-electric doom-vibrant doom-molokai
                                   doom-solarized-light doom-acario-light
                                   base16-3024 base16-classic-dark base16-material-vivid))

(defun dx:themes/set-new-theme ()
  "Set the theme from my own selection, mutate as you see fit"
  (interactive)
  (ivy-read "Select theme: "
            dx:themes/theme-list
            :caller 'oreodave/set-new-theme
            :action (lambda (x) ; Shamelessly copied from counsel in case of change
                      (condition-case nil
                          (progn
                            (mapc #'disable-theme custom-enabled-themes)
                            (load-theme (intern x) t)
                            (when (fboundp 'powerline-reset)
                              (powerline-reset)))
                        (error "Problem loading theme %s" x)))))

Password store

Function to get a password given a key.

(defun dx:password-store/get-password (KEY)
  (shell-command-to-string (concat "pass " KEY)))

Weather

Function to quickly check weather, which is what I wanted wttrin for.

(defun dx:weather ()
  "Check the weather at the 'location' stored in password store"
  (interactive)
  (wttrin (dx:password-store/get-password "location")))
