Personal DOOM Emacs Configuration
Welcome
My personal configuration of DOOM Emacs, written as an Org Mode document.
Configuration Files
init.el
This file controls which Doom modules are enabled and what order they load in. Remember to run doom sync
after modifying it!
;;; init.el -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
NOTE Press SPC h d h
(or C-h d h
for non-vim users) to access Doom's documentation. There you'll find a "Module Index" link where you'll find a comprehensive list of Doom's modules and what flags they support.
NOTE Move your cursor over a module's name (or its flags) and press K
(or C-c c k
for non-vim users) to view its documentation. This works on flags as well (those symbols that start with a plus).
Alternatively, press gd
(or C-c c d
) on a module to browse its directory (for easy access to its source code).

config.el
Place your private configuration here! Remember, you do not need to run doom sync
after modifying this file!
Here are some additional functions/macros that could help you configure Doom:
load!
for loading external *.el files relative to this oneuse-package!
for configuring packagesafter!
for running code after a package has loadedadd-load-path!
for adding directories to theload-path
, relative to this file. Emacs searches theload-path
when you load packages withrequire
oruse-package
.map!
for binding new keys
To get information about any of these functions/macros, move the cursor over the highlighted symbol at press K
(non-evil users must press C-c c k
).
This will open documentation for it, including demos of how they are used.
You can also try gd
(or C-c c d
) to jump to their definition and see how they are implemented.
;;; $DOOMDIR/config.el -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
User Configuration
Some functionality uses this to identify you, e.g. GPG configuration, email clients, file templates and snippets.
(setq user-full-name "Sravan Balaji")
User Interface
Fonts
Doom exposes five (optional) variables for controlling fonts in Doom. Here are the three important ones:
doom-font
doom-variable-pitch-font
doom-big-font
– used fordoom-big-font-mode
; use this for presentations or streaming.
They all accept either a font-spec, font string ("Input Mono-12"), or xlfd font string. You generally only need these two:
(setq doom-font (font-spec :family "monospace" :size 12 :weight 'semi-light) doom-variable-pitch-font (font-spec :family "sans" :size 13))
Set regular, variable pitch, and big fonts.
(setq doom-font (font-spec :family "VictorMono Nerd Font Mono" :size 14)
doom-variable-pitch-font (font-spec :family "Cantarell" :size 14)
doom-big-font (font-spec :family "sb/source-code-font" :size 24))
Enable bold and italic text.
(after! doom-themes
(setq doom-themes-enable-bold t
doom-themes-enable-italic t))
Make comments and keywords italicized.
(custom-set-faces!
'(font-lock-comment-face :slant italic)
'(font-lock-keyword-face :slant italic))
Theme
There are two ways to load a theme. Both assume the theme is installed and available. You can either set doom-theme
or manually load a theme with the load-theme
function.
(setq doom-theme 'doom-dracula)
Opacity
(doom/set-frame-opacity 95)
Line Numbers
This determines the style of line numbers in effect. If set to nil
, line numbers are disabled. For relative line numbers, set this to relative
.
(setq display-line-numbers-type t)
Tab Width
(setq-default tab-width 4)
Highlight Indent Guides
(setq highlight-indent-guides-method 'fill)
(setq highlight-indent-guides-responsive 'stack)
(setq highlight-indent-guides-delay 0)
Org Mode
If you use org
and don't want your org files in the default location below, change org-directory
. It must be set before org loads!
Directory
(setq org-directory "~/org/")
Auto Tangle
(use-package! org-auto-tangle
:defer t
:hook (org-mode . org-auto-tangle-mode)
:config
(setq org-auto-tangle-default t)
)
Source Code Indentation
(setq org-src-preserve-indentation nil
org-edit-src-content-indentation 0)
Hide Emphasis Markers
(setq org-hide-emphasis-markers t)
Projectile
(setq projectile-project-search-path '("~/Projects/" "~/.config/"))
Prettier Formatter
(add-hook! 'web-mode-hook 'prettier-js-mode)
CDLaTeX
(map! :map cdlatex-mode-map
:i "TAB" #'cdlatex-tab)
File Extension Mode Association
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.m\\'" . octave-mode))
packages.el
To install a package with Doom you must declare them here and run doom sync
on the command line, then restart Emacs for the changes to take effect – or use M-x doom/reload
.
To install SOME-PACKAGE from MELPA, ELPA or emacsmirror:
(package! some-package)
To install a package directly from a remote git repo, you must specify a :recipe
. You'll find documentation on what :recipe
accepts here: https://github.com/raxod502/straight.el#the-recipe-format
(package! another-package :recipe (:host github :repo "username/repo"))
If the package you are trying to install does not contain a PACKAGENAME.el file, or is located in a subdirectory of the repo, you'll need to specify :files
in the :recipe
:
(package! this-package :recipe (:host github :repo "username/repo" :files ("some-file.el" "src/lisp/*.el")))
If you'd like to disable a package included with Doom, you can do so here with the :disable
property:
(package! builtin-package :disable t)
You can override the recipe of a built in package without having to specify all the properties for :recipe
. These will inherit the rest of its recipe from Doom or MELPA/ELPA/Emacsmirror:
(package! builtin-package :recipe (:nonrecursive t)) (package! builtin-package-2 :recipe (:repo "myfork/package"))
Specify a :branch
to install a package from a particular branch or tag. This is required for some packages whose default branch isn't master
(which our package manager can't deal with; see raxod502/straight.el#279)
(package! builtin-package :recipe (:branch "develop"))
Use :pin
to specify a particular commit to install.
(package! builtin-package :pin "1a2b3c4d5e")
Doom's packages are pinned to a specific commit and updated from release to release. The unpin!
macro allows you to unpin single packages…
(unpin! pinned-package)
…or multiple packages
;(unpin! pinned-package another-pinned-package)
…Or all packages (NOT RECOMMENDED; will likely break things)
;(unpin! t)
