1. Description

This layer enables org mode for Spacemacs.

1.1. Features:

2. BibTeX

For more extensive support of references through BibTeX files, have a look at the BibTeX layer.

3. Important Note

Spacemacs uses the org version from the ELPA repository instead of the one shipped with emacs. Then, any org related code should not be loaded before dotspacemacs/user-config, otherwise both versions will be loaded and will conflict.

Because of autoloading, calling to org functions will trigger the loading up of the org shipped with emacs which will induce conflicts. One way to avoid conflict is to wrap your org config code in a with-eval-after-load block like this:

(with-eval-after-load 'org
  ;; here goes your Org config :)
  ;; ....
  )

Please also note that everything described here only applies if you install this layer instead of manually loading org as separate emacs package.

If this is not done you will encounter a lot of unbind key exceptions while working with org. More details can be found here.

4. Install

4.1. Layer

To use this configuration layer: in the main Spacemacs configuration file (~/.spacemacs), to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers list add the org entry.

4.2. TODO dependencies

If you would like to enforce dependencies in your TODO hierarchy, this layer has some sane default configurations to try via its org-todo-dependencies-strategy configuration variable.

Setting it to 'naive-auto, will cause an entry to switch to DONE when all its subentries are done, and to TODO otherwise. This does not result in extra prompts for the user, but doesn't work well with more workflow states because of the literal DONE and TODO; it is an excellent place for beginners and minimalists:

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables
       org-todo-dependencies-strategy 'naive-auto)))

Setting it to 'semiauto, will cause the user to be prompted to change an entry's state when the state of the subentries imply it: that is, when they are either all done while it is still a todo, or the when they are all still todo's while it is done. This assumes next to nothing about your workflow states (it does not use literal TODO and DONE), but may result in additional, possibly surprising, prompting for the user; and it has no intelligence to attempt to determine the destination state. It is a good thing to try if 'naive-auto does not accomplish what you need:

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables
       org-todo-dependencies-strategy 'naive-auto)))

If neither of these suffice for you, org-mode can be configured directly by setting org-enforce-todo-dependencies to t and writing your own function to register on the org-after-todo-statistics-hook. The layer implementation is a good reference.

4.3. Agenda notifications

To enable notifications for agenda events, set the variable org-enable-notifications to t.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables
       org-enable-notifications t
       org-start-notification-daemon-on-startup t)))

This will install and configure the org-wild-notifier package. After install, run the org-wild-notifier-mode to start the org-wild-notifier notification daemon. To start the notification daemon automatically on Spacemacs startup, set the variable org-start-notification-daemon-on-startup to t as shown in the code snippet above.

Check the documentation for how org-wild-notifier can be configured (org-wild-notifier uses the alert package for showing notifications. On GNU/linux and Windows, using alert's notifications style is recommended. Note also this issue). Add your preferred alert style to dotspacemacs/user-config with:

(setq alert-default-style 'notifications)

Press M-S RET to enter a todo headline and then press , d t to add a timestamp to the headline (using , d t requires the diary-file variable to point to an existing file, see Agenda recommendations. You can also use the org-journal-new-scheduled-entry that becomes available by enabling org-journal support). By default, the org-wild-notifier package will scan your org-agenda-files (every minute) for TODO headlines that include a timestamp (configuration options are documented here). The default configuration shows a notification 10 minutes before the event using the alert package. The default behavior can be configured via the org-wild-notifier-alert-time variable. The notification type can be configured via the the alert package its configuration settings. Additional notification times can be added using the :WILDNOTIFIERNOTIFYBEFORE: keyword (note that this additionally requires a SCHEDULED: stamp). Properties can be added with , i p.

4.4. Agenda recommendations

Emacs comes with its own diary package included. It is recommended not to use the diary directly. Instead of creating a diary file, create a diary.org file and set the diary-file variable to point to that file. To make the holidays, birthdays etc. from the diary show up in the agenda, add the diary-style expression entries to your diary.org file as shown in the code block of the Calendar/Diary integration section here.

Subsequently, to add appointments to the agenda you could use the following syntax:

* Friday, 04/02/2021
  ** Appointment 1
  <2021-04-02 Fri 10:10>
  ** TODO Appointment 2
  <2021-04-02 Fri 10:11>

or just use the org journal system. Outside org-journal you can still use org-journal-insert-header-at-point to create the date headers. In the source block above, the first appointment will just show up in the agenda. If org-wild-notifier is configured, then the second appointment will also trigger a notification 10 minutes (by default) before its due time (see Agenda notifications).

4.5. GitHub support

To install GitHub related extensions like ox-gfm to export to GitHub flavored markdown set the variable org-enable-github-support to t.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables org-enable-github-support t)))

4.6. Twitter Bootstrap support

To enable the export to Twitter Bootstrap-formatted HTML - set the variable org-enable-bootstrap-support to t. This would install the ox-twbs extension.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables
       org-enable-bootstrap-support t)))

4.7. Gnuplot support

Org-mode supports the plotting of data within tables through Gnuplot as demonstrated here.

Unfortunately, this is not terribly well supported on Windows, at this stage. To disable the configuration of gnuplot support - add the gnuplot package to your dotspacemacs-excluded-packages variable.

4.8. Reveal.js support

To enable the export of org files as a reveal.js presentation - set the variable org-enable-reveal-js-support to t. This would install the org-re-reveal Emacs extension.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
 '((org :variables org-enable-reveal-js-support t)))

Then the extension needs to be pointed to the reveal.js itself. So download reveal.js and point org-re-reveal-root to the path, as it described in the manual.

Alternatively, add the following line to each .org file you want to process:

#+REVEAL_ROOT: https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/reveal.js@3.8.0

4.9. Org-contacts support

org-contacts is a handy contacts management system. It can be used to manage (email) addresses (compatible with gnus, mu4e, notmuch etc.), birthdays and more. It is simpler than bbdb/ebdb and probably powerful enough for most users.

To install org-contacts, set the variable org-enable-org-contacts-support to t. Optionally, also set the variable org-contacts-files and add a capture template. The value of the org-contacts-files variable should be a list with filenames to use as contact sources. If set to nil (default) then all your Org files will be used. The first file in the org-contacts-files list can be visited with the keyboard shortcut SPC a o C f.

(org :variables org-enable-org-contacts-support t
     org-contacts-files '("~/Org/contacts.org" "~/Org/file2.org")
     org-capture-templates '(("c" "Contacts" entry (file "~/Org/contacts.org")
                              "* %(org-contacts-template-name)
:PROPERTIES:
:EMAIL: %(org-contacts-template-email)
:END:")))

A more elaborate capture template can be found in the org-contacts.el file.

Contacts can include the :BIRTHDAY: keyword. To include the birthdays in your org-agenda add %%(org-contacts-anniversaries) to one of your contacts files. It is important that this is inserted after a heading an that it has no preceding whitespace. So probably the best way is to add

* Birthdays
%%(org-contacts-anniversaries)

to the beginning or the end of one of your contacts files.

4.9.1. V-Card import/export

Importing/exporting contacts can be done via the `org-vcard-import/export` commands provided by the org-vcard package. This package gets installed automatically after enabling org contacts support.

4.10. Org-journal support

org-journal is a simple journal management system that:

  • Keeps a separate journal file for each day inside a directory
  • New daily file would always migrate entries with chosen TODO states
  • Has journal encryption functionality
  • Easily integrates with org-agenda and Emacs calendar, iCalendar, allows scheduling
  • Easily integrates with org-capture

To install org-journal - set the variable org-enable-org-journal-support to t.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables
       org-enable-org-journal-support t)))

By default, journal files are stored in ~/Documents/journal/. To override this - set org-journal-dir variable in the dotspacemacs/user-config:

(setq org-journal-dir "~/org/journal/")

To change the journal file name format - alter org-journal-file-format:

(setq org-journal-file-format "%Y-%m-%d")

Warning: setting org-journal-file-format to include a file extension like %Y-%m-%d.org would break the calendar search functionality.

By default, journal files are started with a first level heading (*) followed by the date in the form set by locale. To format journal files differently:

  • alter org-journal-date-prefix and org-journal-date-format. For example, to have new journal files created with this header:

    #+TITLE: Tuesday, September 06 2016
    
  • define the following in dotspacemacs/user-config:

    (setq org-journal-date-prefix "#+TITLE: ")
    (setq org-journal-date-format "%A, %B %d %Y")
    

The default entry is a second level heading (=** =) followed by a timestamp. If you start your journal files with a Title as shown above you may want to adjust entries to start at the first level heading and you may want to change or omit the timestamp.

(setq org-journal-time-prefix "* ")
(setq org-journal-time-format "")

Any of the org-journal settings can be configured in dotspacemacs/user-config or defined alongside the layer itself.

For example:

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables
      org-enable-org-journal-support t
      org-journal-dir "~/org/journal/"
      org-journal-file-format "%Y-%m-%d"
      org-journal-date-prefix "#+TITLE: "
      org-journal-date-format "%A, %B %d %Y"
      org-journal-time-prefix "* "
      org-journal-time-format "")
)

4.11. Hugo support

To install the Org exporter ox-hugo that generates Hugo -compatible Markdown plus TOML/YAML front-matter, set the variable org-enable-hugo-support to t.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables
       org-enable-hugo-support t)))

4.12. Trello support

To install Trello support set the variable org-enable-trello-support to t.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables
       org-enable-trello-support t)))

4.13. Different bullets

You can tweak the bullets displayed in the org buffer in the function dotspacemacs/user-config of your dotfile by setting the variable org-superstar-headline-bullets-list. By default the list is set to (?◉ ?○ ?✸ ?✿).

(setq org-superstar-headline-bullets-list '(?■ ?◆ ?▲ ?▶))

You can disable the fancy bullets entirely by adding org-superstar to dotspacemacs-excluded-packages.

(dotspacemacs-excluded-packages '(org-superstar))

4.14. Project support

Set the layer variable org-projectile-file to the filename where you want to store project-specific TODOs. If this is an absolute path, all todos will be stored in the same file (organized by project), whereas if it is just a single filename, todos will be stored in each project root.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
  '((org :variables org-projectile-file "TODOs.org")))

The TODO files are not added to the agenda automatically. You can do this with the following snippet.

(with-eval-after-load 'org-agenda
  (require 'org-projectile)
  (mapcar '(lambda (file)
                 (when (file-exists-p file)
                   (push file org-agenda-files)))
          (org-projectile-todo-files)))

                     org-enable-epub-support t)))

4.20. Jira support

To bring Jira and OrgMode together over org-jira set the variable org-enable-jira-support to t.

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers '(
  (org :variables
       org-enable-jira-support t
       jiralib-url "https://yourcompany.atlassian.net:443")))

If you would like to avoid being prompted for your login and password each time you connect, add your authentication credentials to ~/.authinfo.gpg or ~/.authinfo:

machine yourcompany.atlassian.net login you@example.com password yourPassword port 443

4.21. Valign support

To install valign. Which provides: Pixel-perfect visual alignment for Org and Markdown tables. Set the variable org-enable-valign to t:

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
 '((org :variables org-enable-valign t)))

Known problem: Rendering large tables (≥100 lines) is laggy.

4.22. Org-modern support

org-modern beautifies org files with many visual enhancements. It toggles visibility of some markers, changes faces of common elements and just "modernizes" the visual appearance. To enable it by default, set the org-enable-modern-support to t:

(setq-default dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
 '((org :variables org-enable-modern-support t)))

To toggle its features, either call M-x org-modern-mode or ESC , T m.

  '((org :variables org-enable-asciidoc-support t)))

4.27. Spacemacs layout integration

A Spacemacs custom layout @Org is defined by the layer and accessible via SPC l o. The startup behavior can be customized with the following layer variables:

  • org-persp-startup-org-file Defines the org file buffer that should be opened after startup. Defaults to the first file in org-agenda-files, if org-persp-startup-org-file is set to nil.
  • org-persp-startup-with-agenda If non-nil, sets initial buffer to the specified (custom) org-agenda buffer, e.g. (setq org-persp-startup-with-agenda "a") opens org-agenda-list.
