consult-project-extra VS consult

consult-project, to be clear, is not a part of the consult package. project.el has had over 25 commits since consult-project last commit, which may mean it’s not up to date with the current library. Regardless, using consult and project.el commands work for me, just trying to offer alternatives.

Others have mentioned the awesome projectile, but I think it should be said that Emacs now has built in project.el which has come in leaps and bounds (though probably still lacks some projectile features).

I use project.el alongside consult[1] which has many convenient wrapper functions over built-in ones, like an enhanced `switch-to-buffer` with project support. I am actually using an even tighter integration called consult-project-extra[2].

The most advanced and overkill solution would probably be to use bufler.el[3] which basically allows you to define your custom logic for buffer grouping.

[3] https://github.com/alphapapa/bufler.el

In the meantime, a small consult extension package I threw together for project jumping + project buffer+file selection is consult-jump-project (see also consult-project-extra which it was inspired by). Be sure to increase your recentf file count to something large, like 1000. These use the inbuilt project.el to determine the list of known projects.

Enrique here! The consult-project-extra package got recently accepted into MELPA. Nevertheless, expect to also find the package in GNU ELPA in the future, since it only requires packages either built into Emacs or on GNU ELPA (as is consult).

BTW, as an alternative to swiper, you can check out consult-line and related commands from consult.

Consult is what you are looking for: https://github.com/minad/consult In particular try consult-ripgrep

Emacs has code peek.

With lsp-mode it has that little window: https://emacs-lsp.github.io/lsp-ui/#lsp-ui-peek

Personally I use eglot with consult which temporarily switches the entire buffer to do the "peek" functionality rather than popping up a tiny window: https://github.com/minad/consult

Thanks for working on this! I just added a consult--maybe-recenter function in a recent commit. This is a nice idea since it can reduce the jumpiness of Consult preview quite a bit.

An example relevant to your list would be some changes many people are taking with their completion framework - using package that leverage core emacs functionality rather than replacing it with a complete package that 'overrides' it. Consult, vertico, orderless and associate packages come to mind here. If you do a bit of a search you'll find plenty of info. Here is a video from Prot on the subject, but there are many others as well. I think Prot actually went on to write his own completion system to overlay native emacs functionality as well.

For the "lauch workspaces", I use burly which just uses simple bookmarks. Then with consult, I just use C-x b, then m to narrow to bookmarks and I have all the workspaces available (remote as well).

Wow, interesting that my response is getting down voted. It seems not enough that I give away my work for free. Nevertheless I appreciate support from the community, as other Emacs package developers. The support is actually helpful. To clarify, publishing my configuration would translate into quite a bit of work, requiring separation of private and public bits.

They're still coming in. This one is from yesterday: https://github.com/minad/consult/issues/793

If you like meow-visit also try imenu it is built into Emacs and can be very useful either by itself or as part of consult. consult also has a consult-mark function that can be helpful, meow kind of breaks it since it makes a lot of marks.
