Org mode

  • Export to Hugo   hugo

    Using org + ox-hugo to export orgfiles into structured hugo markdown.

    At the head of the org document we set things like title, author, contact, setupfiles and other settings: 

    #+TITLE: Toolbox
#+HTML_LINK_HOME:
#+LINK_UP: index.html
#+OPTIONS:    H:4 num:nil toc:n \n:nil ::t |:t ^:t -:t f:t *:t tex:t d:(HIDE) tags:not-in-toc
#+STARTUP:    align fold nodlcheck hidestars oddeven lognotestate

    Sections for export need properties at the beginning: 

    :PROPERTIES:
:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: /
:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: index
:END:

    this creates index.md in the root

    in .spacemacs: 

    (defun dotspacemacs/user-config ()
  (use-package ox-hugo
    :ensure t          ;Auto-install the package from Melpa (optional)
    :after ox))
    don't
    org-hugo-export-to-md
    do
    C-c C-e HA
    • Structure created trough ox-hugo
      :PROPERTIES:
:EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION: linux
:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: linux
:END:

      to inherit the export path from higher level heading EXPORT_HUGO_SECTION*:

  • Export to HTML with style

    • get a theme

      this page is build with

      https://github.com/fniessen/org-html-themes

      and the reference card:

      https://github.com/fniessen/refcard-org-mode

      Changes to the theme are made in separate branch from the forked repo.

      Create folders and place theme dependencies corresponding to the setupfile

    • In the Org file set path to setupfile, title and more 

      #+SETUPFILE: styles/theme-readtheorg-local.setup
#+TITLE: Toolbox

      Using C-c C-e h h we export org to html.

      After everything is done we sync with rclone:

      $rclone config

    using the name attribute to link a existing reference:

    and just a image as file:

  • Source blocks

  • LaTex
    \begin{equation} f(x) = x^2 \end{equation}
  • Flowcharts
    • PlantUML

      https://plantuml.com/

      We install plantuml with pacman:

      $pacman -S plantuml

      execution path looks like:

      exec /usr/bin/java -jar '/usr/share/java/plantuml/plantuml.jar' "$@"

      With this path we can evaluate this: 

      (setq org-plantuml-jar-path (expand-file-name "/usr/share/java/plantuml/plantuml.jar"))
(add-to-list 'org-src-lang-modes '("plantuml" . plantuml))
(org-babel-do-load-languages 'org-babel-load-languages '((plantuml . t)))

      And write the flowchart: 

      start
repeat :foo as starting label;
  :read data;
  :generate diagrams;
backward:This is backward;
repeat while (more data?)
stop

Git gud

Work with a remote repository

This should cover most operations. Everything else is done with magit.

The original repository is upstream, we fork that project and create a new branch for our changes.

A fork is feature of the hosting site, not a git feature.

Get you fork:

$git pull

Create a new branch:

$git checkout -b <branchname>

And push it to the remote:

$git push origin <branchname>

Or get a existing branch:

$git checkout <branch>

List the existing branches:

$git branch -a

Change to the new branch:

$git switch <branch>

Set the location for upstream:

$git remote add upstream <https://>

List the remotes:

$git remote -v

Update the local fork from the upstream:

$git fetch upstream

$git merge upstream/master

Push the updated to your remote:

$git push

If there are changes in upstream while we edit our fork, update again.

After a successful pull request we can delete the branch:

remote:

$git switch <branch>

$git push -d origin <branch>

and local:

$git branch -d <branch>

Or we merge a testing branch:

$git merge testing/master

New repo

$touch README.md

$git init

$git add README.md

$git commit -m "first commit

$git remote add origin git@git...com:User/project.git

$git push -u origin master

GNU Stow, for dotfile tracking and version history

A stow directory:

mkdir /usr/local/stow

A new package for emacs:

/usr/local/stow/emacs

We put .spacemacs in the stow directory and create the simlinks with stow:

$sudo stow emacs

Run git init, add the files and configure your repo.

  • Auto-mounting of drives is done by udisks2 and gvfs. With that in place, most file managers will do. PCManFM, SpaceFM, Thunar, GNOME Files (Nautilus), etc
  • I use "bluetoothctl – connect 01:23:45:67:89:AB"
  • emacswebb(w)rowser
  • learn the power of the emacs undo-tree

Laptop

Arch BIOSboot with grub2

Troubleshooting:

$wipefs --all /dev/sdaX remove filesystem

$mount lists mounting points

$umount -R /mnt unmounts recursive

Live USB stick:

$dd bs=4M if=path/to/archlinux.iso of=/dev/sdx status=progress oflag=sync

In live boot

Settings

$loadkeys de

$wifi-menu -o

$timedatectl set-ntp true

Partitions

$fdisk /dev/sdx

  • boot, 1M (fdisk 04)
  • 32G linux, bootable (fdisk 22)
  • 2G swap (fdisk 19)
  • User (fdisk 28)

No filesystem for boot or swap

$mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdX1

$mkswap /dev/sdX2

$swapon /dev/sdX2

Mount, strap and tab

mount /, /usr, /boot. create folders is necessary

$mount /dev/sdX1 /mnt

$pacstrap /mnt base base-devel linux linux-firmware

$genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab

Setup installed system

Bootloader

$arch-chroot /mnt

$pacman -S grub

$grub-install --target=i386-pc /dev/sdX

$grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Local and user settings

$ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Region/City /etc/localtime

$pacman -S vim

$vim /etc/locale.gen
