  • Emacs Advent Calendar 9: devdocs, code-cells, dREPL, etc.

    buffer-env: A pure-Elisp version of the direnv utility. Useful to make Emacs aware of Python virtualenvs (which, judging by the questions posted here, is unfortunately still a complication for a lot of people). Similar to (and inspired by) envrc, but doesn't require the direnv program.
  • Nix Survival Mode: macOS upgrades won't break Nix anymore

    Yes, most Nix users employ https://direnv.net or the equivalent for your IDE of choice. Emacs for instance has https://github.com/purcell/envrc which set per-buffer variables.
  • Beginner question: how do I set up virtual environments in my Python buffer?
    3 projects | /r/emacs | 22 Apr 2023
    Also take a look at the envrc package. I think it handles multiple projects better.
  • How do YOU use your PKMS?
    5 projects | /r/PKMS | 21 Apr 2023
    I further make my software projects so that when I click a link I go into an environment pre-loaded with their dependencies so dropping in/out of projects is always frictionless. I do this with the reproducibility guarantees of nix, along with glue like nix-direnv and envrc-mode to direnv.
  • Minimal approach for python devel environment with flake
    4 projects | /r/NixOS | 4 Feb 2023
    In conjunction with installing direnv on your favorite text editor, it's a very hassle free experience. Everything happens automatically. If you use Emacs, i higly recommend envrc.el
  • Nix and envrc
    3 projects | /r/emacs | 3 Feb 2023
    Direnv is installed using the nix-direnv installation instructions under "Via configuration.nix in NixOS". I read some recommendations that envrc.el is a better alternative then direnv.el, and after some testing I have to agree. (envrc-global-mode) is enabled in my config. This works perfectly with a normal emacs instance.
  • Emacs + emacs-direnv + Nix + vterm does not just work
    1 project | /r/emacs | 27 Dec 2022
    I don't use flake.nix, only shell.nix, though check if the envrc package works any better for you. https://github.com/purcell/envrc
  • Wrapping gcc with libraries
    2 projects | /r/NixOS | 4 Dec 2022
    As an alternative to emacs-direnv, I’d recommend the “envrc” package.
  • Eglot appreciation post
    3 projects | /r/emacs | 8 Jun 2022
    btw, my main issue regarding tramp was the fact that I didn't have my environment generated by direnv, via the https://github.com/purcell/envrc package. I use direnv almost exclusively to activate my nix-shell, so I can access the exact software dependencies required by that directory of a project.
  • Is it possible to let overlay Emacs use locally configured Agda libraries inside nix-shell?
    1 project | /r/NixOS | 19 May 2022
    I'm not familiar with these tools too but I highly recommend to look at https://github.com/purcell/envrc. If you are not familiar with direnv I suggest to try it with nix-shell/flakes before.
