If not, see . ;;; Commentary: ;; This file contains generic infrastructure for dealing with ;; projects, some utility functions, and commands using that ;; infrastructure. ;; ;; The goal is to make it easier for Lisp programs to operate on the ;; current project, without having to know which package handles ;; detection of that project type, parsing its config files, etc. ;; ;; NOTE: The project API is still experimental and can change in major, ;; backward-incompatible ways. Everyone is encouraged to try it, and ;; report to us any problems or use cases we hadn't anticipated, by ;; sending an email to emacs-devel, or `M-x report-emacs-bug'. ;; ;; Infrastructure: ;; ;; Function `project-current', to determine the current project ;; instance, and 3 (at the moment) generic functions that act on it. ;; This list is to be extended in future versions. ;; ;; Utils: ;; ;; `project-combine-directories' and `project-subtract-directories', ;; mainly for use in the abovementioned generics' implementations. ;; ;; Commands: ;; ;; `project-find-regexp' and `project-or-external-find-regexp' use the ;; current API, and thus will work in any project that has an adapter. ;;; TODO: ;; * Reliably cache the list of files in the project, probably using ;; filenotify.el (if supported) to invalidate. And avoiding caching ;; if it's not available (manual cache invalidation is not nice). ;; ;; * Allow the backend to override the file-listing logic? Maybe also ;; to delegate file name completion to an external tool. ;; ;; * Build tool related functionality. Start with a `project-build' ;; command, which should provide completions on tasks to run, and ;; maybe allow entering some additional arguments. This might ;; be handled better with a separate API, though. Then we won't ;; force every project backend to be aware of the build tool(s) the ;; project is using. ;; ;; * Command to (re)build the tag files in all project roots. To that ;; end, we might need to add a way to provide file whitelist ;; wildcards for each root to limit etags to certain files (in ;; addition to the blacklist provided by ignores), and/or allow ;; specifying additional tag regexps. ;; ;; * UI for the user to be able to pick the current project for the ;; whole Emacs session, independent of the current directory. Or, ;; in the more advanced case, open a set of projects, and have some ;; project-related commands to use them all. E.g., have a command ;; to search for a regexp across all open projects. Provide a ;; history of projects that were opened in the past (storing it as a ;; list of directories should suffice). ;; ;; * Support for project-local variables: a UI to edit them, and a ;; utility function to retrieve a value. Probably useless without ;; support in various built-in commands. In the API, we might get ;; away with only adding a `project-configuration-directory' method, ;; defaulting to the project root the current file/buffer is in. ;; And prompting otherwise. How to best mix that with backends that ;; want to set/provide certain variables themselves, is up for ;; discussion. ;;; Code: (require 'cl-generic) (defvar project-find-functions (list #'project-try-vc) "Special hook to find the project containing a given directory.

Then this hook will, in ;; general, be modified globally, and not from major mode functions. ;; ;; The second option seems simpler, but the first one has the ;; advantage that the user could override the list of languages used ;; in a project via a directory-local variable, thus skipping ;; languages they're not working on personally (in a big project), or ;; working around problems in language detection (the detection logic ;; might be imperfect for the project in question, or it might work ;; too slowly for the user's taste).
