Hi, does anyone know if/how it is possible to use the restclient layer with restclient-jq. I'm trying to get this example to work:
GET http://httpbin.org/ip
-> jq-set-var :my-ip .origin
But this gives me the error "Unknown restclient hook type jq-set-var"

Daniel Nicolai

@dalanicolai

@bschwehn I have found pashky/restclient.el#240

Benjamin Schwehn

@bschwehn

Thanks @dalanicolai I also see pashky/restclient.el#257 guess I'd have to try to manually install instead of using the melpa package

Daniel Nicolai

@dalanicolai

Yeah looks like it

You can use the quelpa recipe

Put this in you additional-packages

     (restclient-jq :location (recipe
                             :fetcher github
                             :repo "pashky/restclient.el"))

And require or use-package it

How can I make spacemacs respect the local variables in a file? I use it for setting the dictionary in a tex file but all local variables simply seem to get ignored (my .spacemacs)

Daniel Nicolai

@dalanicolai

@t-wissmann So where is that variable for the dictionary?

Ah okay in the dictionary file?

Benjamin Schwehn

@bschwehn

Thank you so much @dalanicolai I wasn't familiar with quelpa and that you could use a definition like this in additional-packages. Seems to work so far

Thorsten Wißmann

@t-wissmann

@dalanicolai the variable is set in line 45 of the linked .tex file

Daniel Nicolai

@dalanicolai

I think it could be that you should use just one % sign in front

Not sure, but recently Emacs was complaining that my package had no header when I used three ;;; instead of two

Thorsten Wißmann

@t-wissmann

I've already tried it, the issue still exists with only one %

Daniel Nicolai

@dalanicolai

Okay, well your lines work here at least. So I am not sure why they are not working over there

Thorsten Wißmann

@t-wissmann

Thanks for checking! They worked for many years, but since a couple of months ago, they seem to be ignored (I first didn't notice, and now I don't know what broke them)

Daniel Nicolai

@dalanicolai

Ah well, I have no clue also. I checked your file also (not just the last lines), and it works correctly here also

Thorsten Wißmann

@t-wissmann

Is there anything suspicious in my .spacemacs or is there any other configuration file, spacemacs is reading?

Daniel Nicolai

@dalanicolai

Well it is a little much, but I did not see quickly find anything suspicious

But I guess you should just bisect it (and maybe first try with a clean dotfile)

Thorsten Wißmann

@t-wissmann

OK, I'll do so (right now, I'm reinstalling spacemacs, which could still take a while)

Daniel Nicolai

@dalanicolai

Haha, okay. Well I guess you will find it eventually then... good luck!

Thorsten Wißmann

@t-wissmann

After activating the spell-checking configuration layer in an empty .spacemacs, I obtained this error when opening the file:

Error in post-command-hook (flyspell-post-command-hook): (error "No data for dictionary \"german\" in 'ispell-local-dictionary-alist' or 'ispell-dictionary-alist'")

. After a few iterations, the message disappeared and the right dictionary was used...

(This is really frustrating...)

Thorsten Wißmann

@t-wissmann

OK, I've found the issue: there was the line (add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'my-LaTeX-mode) in my user-config, but my-LaTeX-mode was not defined (it was commented out)...

Hi there, I am trying to use Spacemacs for OrgMode, and I wanted to install ox-reveal. So I ran M^x package-install ox-reveal, but when opening the Export Buffer, I don't see the reveal setting added. Anyone have any ideas?

It appears to be an Orphan package, so it is being deleted on launch (if that helps, not too familiar with Spacemacs packages)

@t-wissmann Thanks for the reporting back!

Mark Hutchison

@AstroCoding

@dalanicolai Followed all instructions, from creating a layer with the package info to just using "used-but-keep-unused", did not work

QHayward

@QHayward

I've been using spacemacs daily for years. I'm installing on a new computer right now, and am deliberating between getting the master branch again or the current develop branch..?

fran-penedo

@fran-penedo

develop

QHayward

@QHayward

It would be a bit sad to miss out on all the stuff that's been added in the last year since master has been merged, but I generally like to have really stable builds. If I grab the current develop, I'll probably be using it in its current state for a long time without updating

Is there like.. a relatively stable release of stable that I could use..?

I guess I'm a bit confused why master hasn't been merged in so long

fran-penedo

@fran-penedo

I don't think there is, and I would expect master to have quite a lot of issues at this point due to incompatibilities introduced in new package versions

Daniel Nicolai

@dalanicolai

@AstroCoding https://www.spacemacs.org/layers/+emacs/org/README.html#revealjs-support

Have you seen that also?

QHayward

@QHayward

Is everyone just periodically updating to develop then? I generally dislike updating out of fear that it will break something about my workflow when I'm in a crunch

so I tend to stick with whatever version of things I build my workflow around for a year or more

QHayward

@QHayward

Oh, I hadn't realized that develop being the 'default' branch in github meant it was the head. I guess I've been using develop all this time without realizing it then..?

fran-penedo

@fran-penedo

I'm not sure when they made develop default, so it depends how long ago it was. I'm currently updating develop every few months whenever I'm not in the middle of something or if I hit a bug that really annoys me

QHayward

@QHayward

Thank you, I appreciate your help and clarification

the current READ.me references the 'master branch' in a few places, which compounded with my preexisting misunderstanding
