Workflow Configuration

This repository

This repository (abougouffa/dotfiles) contains my configuration files for Bash, Zsh, MinEmacs, Neovim, Alacritty and other Linux related stuff.

If you want to reuse some of these configurations, you will need to modify some directories and add some user specific information (usernames, passwords…).

Notice

This is the main configuration file, it contains the literal personal configuration for MinEmacs, and I use it to generate some other Linux configuration files (define aliases, environment variables, user tools, Git configuration…).

Intro

I’ve been using Linux exclusively since 2010, GNU Emacs was always installed on my machine, but I didn’t discover the real Emacs until 2020. In the beginning, I started my vanilla Emacs configuration from scratch, but after a while, it had become a real mess. As a new Emacs user, I didn’t understand in the beginning how to optimize my configuration and how to do things correctly, which resulted in a configuration that takes 30s to load.

I discovered then Spacemacs, which made things much easier, but it was a little slow, and just after, I found the awesome Doom Emacs, which helped me progress and learn more about Emacs and Lisp, but at some point, I faced multiple problems with Doom, so I started my own configuration framework, MinEmacs.

MinEmacs is intended to be a minimal configuration framework. In the beginning, I planned to use only necessary packages. However, it is starting to grow to respond to my daily needs.

This block will be tangled in the file bootstrap.sh, which will be used as a script to conditionally install and configure some system features.

#!/bin/env bash

# This shell script has been generated from the litterate Org configuration.
# It helps installing required tools (for Arch/Manjaro Linux) and tweak some
# system settings

Email (mu4e)

Configuring mu4e as email client needs three parts:

  • Incoming mail configuration IMAP (using mbsync)
  • Outgoing mail configuration SMTP (using smtpmail or msmtp)
  • Email indexer and viewer (via mu and mu4e)

IMAP (mbsync)

You will need to:

  • Install mu and isync (sudo pacman -S mu isync)
  • Set up a proper configuration file for your accounts at ~/.mbsyncrc
  • Run mu init --maildir=~/Maildir --my-address=user@host1 --my-address=user@host2
  • Run mbsync -c ~/.mbsyncrc -a
  • For sending mails from mu4e, add a ~/.authinfo file, file contains a line in this format machine MAIL.DOMAIN.TLD login USER port 587 password PASSWD
  • Encrypt the ~/.authinfo file using GPG gpg -c ~/.authinfo and delete the original unencrypted file.

I use a mbsyncrc file for multi-accounts, with some hacks for Gmail accounts (to rename the [Gmail]/... folders). Here is an explained configuration example.

In the configuration file, there is a parameter named Pass which should be set to the password in plain text. Most of the examples you can find online uses this parameter, but in real life, nobody uses it, it is extremely unsafe to put the password in plain text configuration file. Instead, mbsync configuration file provides the alternative PassCmd parameter, which can be set to an arbitrary shell command which gets the password for you. You can set it for example to call the pass password manager to output the account password, or to bw command (for Bitwarden users). For me, I’m using it with Emacs’ ~/.authinfo.gpg, the PassCmd in my configuration uses GPG and awk to decrypt and filter the file content to find the required account’s password. I set PassCmd to something like this:

gpg -q --for-your-eyes-only --no-tty --logger-file /dev/null --batch -d ~/.authinfo.gpg | awk '/machine smtp\.googlemail\.com login username@gmail\.com/ {print $NF}'

Remember the line format in the ~/.authinfo.gpg file:

machine smtp.googlemail.com login [email protected] port 587 password YOUR_P455w0rd

This PassCmd command above, decrypts the ~/.authinfo.gpg, passes it to awk to search the line containing "machine smtp.googlemail.com login [email protected]" and prints the last field (the last field $NF in the awk command corresponds to the password, as you can see in the line format).

The whole ~/.mbsyncrc file should look like this:

# mbsync config file
# GLOBAL OPTIONS
BufferLimit 50mb             # Global option:   Default buffer size is 10M, too small for modern machines.
Sync All                     # Channels global: Sync everything "Pull Push New ReNew Delete Flags" (default option)
Create Both                  # Channels global: Automatically create missing mailboxes on both sides
Expunge Both                 # Channels global: Delete messages marked for deletion on both sides

SMTP (msmtp)

I was using the standard smtpmail to send mails; but recently, I’m getting problems when sending mails. I passed a whole day trying to fix mail sending for one of my accounts, at the end of the day, I got a working setup; BUT, sending the first mail always ask me about password! I need to enter the password to be able to send the mail, Emacs asks me then if I want to save it to ~/.authifo.gpg, when I confirm saving it, it got duplicated in the .authinfo.gpg file.

This seems to be a bug; I also found somewhere that smtpmail is buggy, and that msmtp seems to be a good alternative, so now I’m using a msmtp-based setup, and it works like a charm!

For this, we will need an additional configuration file, ~/.msmtprc, I configure it the same way as mbsync, specifying this time SMTP servers instead of IMAP ones. I extract the passwords from ~/.authinfo.gpg using GPG and awk, the same way we did in mbsync’s configuration.

The following is a sample file ~/.msmtprc.

# Set default values for all following accounts.

Multimedia

I like to use an MPD powered EMMS, so when I restart Emacs I do not lose my music.

MPD and MPC

;; Not sure if it is required!
(with-eval-after-load 'mpc
  (setq mpc-host "localhost:6600"))

I like to launch the music daemon mpd using Systemd, let’s define some commands in Emacs to start/kill the server:

(defun +mpd-daemon-start ()
  "Start MPD, connects to it and syncs the metadata cache."
  (interactive)
  (let ((mpd-daemon-running-p (+mpd-daemon-running-p)))
    (unless mpd-daemon-running-p
      ;; Start the daemon if it is not already running.
      (setq mpd-daemon-running-p (+systemd-start "mpd")))
    (cond ((+mpd-daemon-running-p)
           (+mpd-mpc-update)
           (emms-player-mpd-connect)
           (emms-cache-set-from-mpd-all)
           (message "Connected to MPD!"))
          (t
           (warn "An error occured when trying to start Systemd mpd.service.")))))

(defun +mpd-daemon-stop ()
  "Stops playback and kill the MPD daemon."
  (interactive)
  (emms-stop)
  (+systemd-stop "mpd")
  (message "MPD stopped!"))

(defun +mpd-daemon-running-p ()
  "Check if the MPD service is running."
  (+systemd-running-p "mpd"))

(defun +mpd-mpc-update ()
  "Updates the MPD database synchronously."
  (interactive)
  (if (zerop (call-process "mpc" nil nil nil "update"))
      (message "MPD database updated!")
    (warn "An error occured when trying to update MPD database.")))

EMMS

Now, we configure EMMS to use MPD if it is present; otherwise, it uses whatever default backend EMMS is using.

  (if MPD-P
      ;; If using MPD as backend

System configuration

Mime types

Org mode files

Org mode isn’t recognized as its own mime type by default, but that can easily be changed with the following file. For system-wide changes try /usr/share/mime/packages/org.xml.

<mime-info xmlns='http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info'>
  <mime-type type="text/org">
    <comment>Emacs Org-mode File</comment>
    <glob pattern="*.org"/>
    <alias type="text/org"/>
  </mime-type>
</mime-info>

What’s nice is that Papirus now has an icon for text/org. One simply needs to refresh their mime database:

update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime

Then set Emacs as the default editor:

xdg-mime default emacs-client.desktop text/org

Registering org-protocol://

The recommended method of registering a protocol is by registering a desktop application, which seems reasonable.

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Emacs Org-Protocol
Exec=emacsclient %u
Icon=/home/hacko/.doom.d/assets/org-mode.svg
Type=Application
Terminal=false
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/org-protocol

To associate org-protocol:// links with the desktop file:

xdg-mime default org-protocol.desktop x-scheme-handler/org-protocol

Configuring Chrome/Brave

As specified in the official documentation, we would like to invoke the org-protocol:// without confirmation. To do this, we need to add this system-wide configuration.

unset INSTALL_CONFIRM
read -p "Do you want to set Chrome/Brave to show the 'Always open ...' checkbox, to be used with the 'org-protocol://' registration? [Y | N]: " INSTALL_CONFIRM

if [[ "$INSTALL_CONFIRM" == "Y" ]]
then
  sudo mkdir -p /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/

  sudo tee /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/external_protocol_dialog.json > /dev/null <<'EOF'
  {
  "ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox": true
  }
EOF

  sudo chmod 644 /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/external_protocol_dialog.json
fi

Then add a bookmarklet in your browser with this code:

javascript:location.href =
    'org-protocol://roam-ref?template=r&ref='
    + encodeURIComponent(location.href)
    + '&title='
    + encodeURIComponent(document.title)
    + '&body='
    + encodeURIComponent(window.getSelection())

git prune-files

This tool is taken from https://gist.github.com/nottrobin/5758221. It is attributed to David Underhill. It is a script to permanently delete files/folders from a Git repository. To use it, cd to your repository’s root, then run the script with a list of paths you want to delete, e.g., git-prune-files path1 path2

#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -o errexit

if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
    echo "Usage: git prune-files <path1> [<path2> ...]" 1>&2
    exit 0
fi

# make sure we're at the root of git repo
if [ ! -d .git ]; then
    echo "Error: must run this script from the root of a git repository" 1>&2
    exit 1
fi

# remove all paths passed as arguments from the history of the repo
files=$@
git filter-branch --index-filter "git rm -rf --cached --ignore-unmatch $files" HEAD

Apache Tika App wrapper

Apache Tika is a content detection and analysis framework. It detects and extracts metadata and text from over a thousand different file types. We will be using the Tika App in command-line mode to show some meaningful diff information for some binary files.

First, let’s add a custom script to run tika-app:

#!/bin/sh
APACHE_TIKA_JAR="$HOME/.local/share/tika/tika-app.jar"

if [ -f "${APACHE_TIKA_JAR}" ]; then
  exec java -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -jar "${APACHE_TIKA_JAR}" "$@" 2>/dev/null
else
  echo "JAR file not found at ${APACHE_TIKA_JAR}"
fi

Add tika’s installation instructions to the bootstrap.sh file.

update_apache_tika () {
  TIKA_JAR_PATH="$HOME/.local/share/tika"

  if [ ! -d "${TIKA_JAR_PATH}" ]; then
    mkdir -p "${TIKA_JAR_PATH}"
  fi

  TIKA_BASE_URL=https://archive.apache.org/dist/tika/
  TIKA_JAR_LINK="${TIKA_JAR_PATH}/tika-app.jar"

  echo -n "Checking for new Apache Tika App version... "

  command -v pandoc >/dev/null || echo "Cannot check, pandoc is missing!"; return

  # Get the lastest version
  TIKA_VERSION=$(
    curl -s "${TIKA_BASE_URL}" | # Get the page
    pandoc -f html -t plain | # Convert HTML page to plain text.
    awk '/([0-9]+\.)+[0-1]\// {print substr($1, 0, length($1)-1)}' | # Get the versions directories (pattern: X.X.X/)
    sort -rV | # Sort versions, the newest first
    head -n 1 # Get the first (newest) version
  )

  if [ -z "${TIKA_VERSION}" ]; then
    echo "Failed, check your internet connection."
    exit 1
  fi

  echo "Lastest version is ${TIKA_VERSION}"

  TIKA_JAR="${TIKA_JAR_PATH}/tika-app-${TIKA_VERSION}.jar"
  TIKA_JAR_URL="${TIKA_BASE_URL}${TIKA_VERSION}/tika-app-${TIKA_VERSION}.jar"

  if [ ! -f "${TIKA_JAR}" ]; then
    echo "New version available!"
    unset INSTALL_CONFIRM
    read -p "Do you want to download Apache Tika App v${TIKA_VERSION}? [Y | N]: " INSTALL_CONFIRM
    if [[ "$INSTALL_CONFIRM" == "Y" ]]; then
      curl -o "${TIKA_JAR}" "${TIKA_JAR_URL}" && echo "Apache Tika App v${TIKA_VERSION} downloaded successfully"
    fi
  else
    echo "Apache Tika App is up-to-date, version ${TIKA_VERSION} already downloaded to '${TIKA_JAR}'"
  fi

  # Check the existance of the symbolic link
  if [ -L "${TIKA_JAR_LINK}" ]; then
    unlink "${TIKA_JAR_LINK}"
  fi

  # Create a symbolic link to the installed version
  ln -s "${TIKA_JAR}" "${TIKA_JAR_LINK}"
}

update_apache_tika

When it detects that Tesseract is installed, Tika App will try to extract text from some file types. For some reason, it tries to use Tesseract with some compressed files like *.bz2, *.apk… etc. As a workaround, we disable this feature by exporting an XML config file which will be used when launching the Tika App (using --config=<tika-config.xml>).

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<properties>
  <parsers>
    <parser class="org.apache.tika.parser.DefaultParser">
      <parser-exclude class="org.apache.tika.parser.ocr.TesseractOCRParser"/>

Command line tools

Emacs command-line wrapper

A wrapper around emacsclient, stolen from tecosaur’s Emacs configuration.

  • Accepting stdin by putting it in a temporary file and immediately opening it.
  • Guessing that the tty is a good idea when $DISPLAY is unset (relevant with SSH sessions, among other things).
  • With a whiff of 24-bit color support, sets TERM variable to a terminfo that (probably) announces 24-bit color support.
  • Changes GUI emacsclient instances to be non-blocking by default (--no-wait), and instead take a flag to suppress this behavior (-w).

Useful aliases

Now, to set an alias to use e with magit, and then for maximum laziness we can set aliases for the terminal-forced variants.

# -*- mode: sh; -*-

# Aliases to run emacs+magit
alias magit='e --eval "(progn (magit-status) (delete-other-windows))"'
alias magitt='e -t --eval "(progn (magit-status) (delete-other-windows))"'

# Aliases to run emacs+mu4e
alias emu='e --eval "(progn (=mu4e) (delete-other-windows))"'
alias emut='e -t --eval "(progn (=mu4e) (delete-other-windows))"'

And this to launch Emacs in terminal mode et, I use this as a default $EDITOR

#!/usr/bin/env bash
e -t "$@"

And ev for use with $VISUAL:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
e -w "$@"
export EDITOR="$HOME/.local/bin/et"
export VISUAL="$HOME/.local/bin/ev"

pbcopy and pbpaste

I like to define MacOS-like commands (pbcopy and pbpaste) to copy and paste in terminal (from stdin, to stdout). The pbcopy and pbpaste are defined using either xclip or xsel, you would need to install these tools, otherwise we wouldn’t define the aliases.

# Define aliases to 'pbcopy' and 'pbpaste'
if command -v xclip &> /dev/null; then
  # Define aliases using xclip
  alias pbcopy='xclip -selection clipboard'
  alias pbpaste='xclip -selection clipboard -o'
elif command -v xsel &> /dev/null; then
  # Define aliases using xsel
  alias pbcopy='xsel --clipboard --input'
  alias pbpaste='xsel --clipboard --output'
fi

netpaste

Define a netpaste command to paste to a Pastebin server.

alias netpaste='curl -F file=@- 0x0.st' # OR 'curl -F f:1=<- ix.io '

Sudo GUI!

And then define gsuon and gsuoff aliases to run graphical apps from terminal with root permissions, this requires xhost.

# To run GUI apps from terminal with root permissions
if command -v xhost &> /dev/null; then
  alias gsuon='xhost si:localuser:root'
  alias gsuoff='xhost -si:localuser:root'

# NeoVim
if command -v nvim &> /dev/null; then
  alias vim="nvim"
  alias vi="nvim"
fi

ESP-IDF

Add some aliases to work with the ESP-IDF framework.

if [[ -d "$HOME/Softwares/src/esp-idf/" ]]; then
  alias esp-prepare-env='source $HOME/Softwares/src/esp-idf/export.sh'
  alias esp-update='echo "Updating ESP-IDF framework..." && cd $HOME/src/esp-idf && git pull --all && echo "Updated successfully"'
else
  alias esp-prepare-env='echo "esp-idf repo not found. You can clone the esp-idf repo using git clone https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git"'
  alias esp-update=esp-prepare-env
fi

CLI wttrin client

Define an alias to get weather information for my city:

alias wttrin='curl wttr.in/$WTTRIN_CITY'
alias wttrin2='curl v2.wttr.in/$WTTRIN_CITY'

Minicom

Enable Meta key and colors in minicom:

export MINICOM='--metakey --color=on'

Rust

Define Rust sources path, and add packages installed from cargo to the PATH.

export RUST_SRC_PATH="$HOME/.rustup/toolchains/stable-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/rustlib/src/rust/src/"
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.cargo/bin"

Go

I don’t like Go creating stuff in my home directory, lets move the Go workspace by setting the GOPATH environment variable.

# The default is $HOME/go
export GOPATH="$HOME/Projects/go"

Clang-format

I’m using the AUR package clang-format-static-bin, which provide multiple versions of Clang-format, I use it with some work projects requiring a specific version of Clang-format.

[[ -d "/opt/clang-format-static" ]] && export PATH="$PATH:/opt/clang-format-static"

CMake

Add my manually built libraries to CMake and PATH.

export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$HOME/Softwares/src/install"
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/Softwares/src/install/bin"

Node

Install and setup pyenv:

tmux

I like to use tmux by default, even on my local sessions, I like to start a tmux in a default session on the first time I launch a terminal, and then, attach any other terminal to this default session:

# If not running inside Emacs (via vterm/eshell...)
if [[ -z "${INSIDE_EMACS}" ]]; then
  if command -v tmux &> /dev/null && [[ -z "${TMUX}" ]]; then
    tmux attach -t default || tmux new -s default

Nix & Guix

I’m currently experimenting both Nix and Guix as package managers to see which one fits my needs. I’m planning to move from Manjaro/Arch Linux to NixOS or Guix. Guix seems more robust, less hacky than NixOS and uses Guile Scheme for almost every aspect (the Nix language is definitely less powerful and non general purpose as Guile). However, the strict “libre” policy of Guix bothers me a bit, as well as the number of available packages for Guix compared to those available for Nix.

Nix

# if ! command -v nix &> /dev/null; then
#   unset INSTALL_CONFIRM
#   read -p "Do you want install Nix for all users? [Y | N]: " INSTALL_CONFIRM

#   if [[ "$INSTALL_CONFIRM" == "Y" ]]; then
#     sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --daemon
#   else
#     read -p "Do you want install Nix for the current user only? [Y | N]: " INSTALL_CONFIRM

#     if [[ "$INSTALL_CONFIRM" == "Y" ]]; then
#       sh <(curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install) --no-daemon
#     fi
#   fi
# fi

Guix

# if ! command -v guix &>/dev/null; then
#   unset INSTALL_CONFIRM
#   read -p "Do you want install guix [Y | N]: " INSTALL_CONFIRM
#   if [[ "$INSTALL_CONFIRM" =~ "^[Yy]$" ]]; then
#     curl -sfL https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/plain/etc/guix-install.sh | sudo bash
#   fi
# fi
# # Automatically added by the Guix install script.
# if [ -n "$GUIX_ENVIRONMENT" ]; then
#     if [[ $PS1 =~ (.*)"\\$" ]]; then
#         PS1="${BASH_REMATCH[1]} [env]\\\$ "
#     fi
# fi
# # Automatically added by the Guix install script.
# if [ -n "$GUIX_ENVIRONMENT" ]; then
#     if [[ $PS1 =~ (.*)"\\$" ]]; then
#         PS1="${BASH_REMATCH[1]} [env]\\\$ "
#     fi
# fi

Other stuff

Define some environment variables.

Rust format

For Rust code base, the file $HOME/.rustfmt.toml contains the global format settings, I like to set it to:

newline_style = "Unix"
tab_spaces = 2
hard_tabs = false

eCryptfs

GDB

Early init

I like to disable the initial message (containing copyright info and other stuff), the right way to do this is either by starting gdb with -q option, or (since GDB v11 I think), by setting src_gdb-script{set startup-quietly} in ~/.gdbearlyinit.

# GDB early init file
# Abdelhak Bougouffa (c) 2022

# Disable showing the initial message
set startup-quietly

Init

GDB loads $HOME/.gdbinit at startup, I like to define some default options in this file, this is a WIP, but it won’t evolve too much, as it is recommended to keep the .gdbinit clean and simple. For the moment, it does just enable pretty printing, and defines the c and n commands to wrap continue and next with a post refresh, which is helpful with the annoying TUI when the program outputs to the standard output.

# GDB init file
# Abdelhak Bougouffa (c) 2022

# Save history
set history save on
set history filename ~/.gdb_history
set history remove-duplicates 2048

# When debugging my apps, debug information of system libraries
# aren't that important
set debuginfod enabled off

# Set pretty print
set print pretty on

# I hate stepping into system libraries when I'm debugging my
# crappy stuff, so lets add system headers to skipped files
skip pending on
python
import os

# Add paths here, they will be explored recursivly
LIB_PATHS = ["/usr/include" "/usr/local/include"]

for lib_path in LIB_PATHS:
  for root, dirs, files in os.walk(lib_path):
    for file in files:
      cmd = f"skip file {os.path.join(root, file)}"
      gdb.execute(cmd, True, to_string=True)
end
skip enable

# This fixes the annoying ncurses TUI gliches and saves typing C-l each time to refresh the screen
define cc
  continue
  refresh
end

define nn
  next
  refresh
end

GnuPG

I add this to my ~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf, to set the time-to-live to one day.

# Do not ask me about entered passwords for 24h (during the same session)
default-cache-ttl 86400
max-cache-ttl 86400

# As I'm using KDE, use Qt based pinentry tool instead of default GTK+
pinentry-program /usr/bin/pinentry-qt

# Allow pinentry in Emacs minibuffer (combined with epg-pinentry-mode)
allow-loopback-pinentry
allow-emacs-pinentry

OCR This

This creates a script named ocrthis that can be bound to OS shortcut. When triggered:

  • it shows a selection tool to take a partial screenshot,
  • it runs tesseract to extract the text,
  • and then, it copies it to clipboard.
#!/bin/bash

IMG=$(mktemp -u --suffix=".png")
scrot -s "$IMG" -q 100
mogrify -modulate 100,0 -resize 400% "$IMG"
tesseract "$IMG" - -l eng 2> /dev/null | xsel -ib

Slack

This script is called at system startup.

#!/bin/bash

WEEK_DAY=$(date +%u)
HOUR=$(date +%H)
SLACK=$(which slack)

if [[ "$WEEK_DAY" != "6" ]] && [[ "$WEEK_DAY" != "7" ]] && [[ "$HOUR" -gt 7 ]] && [[ "$HOUR" -lt 18 ]]; then
  $SLACK -u %U
else
  echo "It is not work time!"

KDE Plasma

On KDE, there is a good support for HiDPI displays, however, I faced annoying small icons in some contexts (for example, a right click on desktop). This can be fixed by setting PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1 before starting KDE Plasma. KDE sources the files with .sh extension found on ~/.config/plasma-workspace/env, so let’s create ours.

export PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1
