Hi

I am using org-mode from git and compile it.

I would like to use the org-notmuch module in the contrib directory, and I activate it using:

 (add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/org-mode/contrib/lisp")
 (require 'org-notmuch)

But, as Suvayo pointed out to me, in default.mk it says:

# Define if you want to include some (or all) files from contrib/lisp
# just the filename please (no path prefix, no .el suffix), maybe with globbing
#ORG_ADD_CONTRIB = org-e-* org-md org-export # e.g. the new exporter

So I would have to add

ORG_ADD_CONTRIB = org-notmuch

to the local.mk file

Nevertheless, I would like to stick with a configutration which uses the normal compiled version
and all configurations are in one file (emacs.org), so I would prefer the require... approach.

But I would like to have some clarification, what the differences are between the two approaches
and if (and if yes, why) it would be advisable to use the second approach.

Thanks  lot,

Rainer

PS: I update my git almost daily via the following script:

#!/bin/sh
cd ~/.emacs.d/org-mode-git/org-mode

git checkout master
git fetch --tags origin

This is correct and will tell Org to compile and install
org-notmuch.el.

But you will still have to require it in your configuration.

Compiling, installing and requiring are three different things.

The makefile rules take care of the first two, while your config
file needs to take care of the third one in any case.

If you set the load-path to include the "contrib/lisp/" directory,
then you don't need to install org-notmuch, and (require 'org-notmuch)
will find it.

If you don't want to bother setting the load-path for "contrib/lisp/"
then you want to install Org.  In this case, org-notmuch will not be
installed unless you add the "ORG_ADD_CONTRIB = org-notmuch" rule.

I hope the above clarifies things.

I don't install Org files, I use them from the git repo and configure
the require accordingly.

Ok - that makes sense. I just checked in my contrib/lisp and I only have .el there, so none are
compiled.

Well - I don't install org, but just specify the load-path, so I have to specify that one as well.
No problem.

Absolutely - thanks.

Yes - that is what I am doing as well.

Just for clarifications: is there any problem with adding

ORG_ADD_CONTRIB = *

to the local.mk file, apart from slightly longer compilation times?

Ok - I'll change it accordingly.

This should be okay, but it's not safe.  If any non-emacs-lisp
file gets added to contrib/lisp/ (e.g. a README file) then you
will try to compile non-elisp files.  *\.el is safer.

This is a globbing pattern, not a regular expression, hence: "*.el", but that
would also pull in htmlize which you most likely don't want, so you might follow
the lead in server.mk and make that "org-*" or "org-*.el" if you are worried
that the Org maintainer forgets that only lisp files should go into the lisp
directory.  :-)


Regards,
Achim.

Look in lisp, not contrib/lisp.

No, you don't want that if you use ORG_ADD_CONTRIB.

Just curious, what would change for you if you installed Org into a user
directory (besides using "make up2" instead of "make update")?

Yes, you don't want all of contrib (htmlize.el in particular).

>>> PS: I update my git almost daily via the following script:

Actually, the "git checkout master" at the beginning should probably
stay there as a defensive measure.

Thanks Bastien and Achim - I will then use "org-*.el"

Quick follow up question - what is the value for the Ubuntu package?

True - because it compiles it there.

Absolutely - if I use ORG_ADD_CONTRIB I don't want / need it, but If I don't, I do.

Well - I could and I guess nothing would change. Why I like my setup at the moment is, that I have
all emacs config, installation and elpa in my .emacs.d directory. Would this be the same after
using "make up2"? Would I have to change paths somewhere?

Makes sense - changed it as described in the other email.

You can install Org wherever you like if you let your Emacs
configuration find it.  You need to put suitable definitions for lispdir
datadir and infodir into local.mk, the easiest way is probably to just
point prefix at your emacs.d (you must use the absolute path, not the
tilde abbreviation ~/...).  Check the result of these changes with "make
config" before you first install.

Achim.
