# Installation
|
|
|
|
## Installing Emacs
|
|
|
|
Obviously to use the Emacs Prelude you have to install Emacs
|
|
first. Have a look at
|
|
the
|
|
[WikEmacs articles on installing Emacs](http://wikemacs.org/index.php/Installing_Emacs).
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
### Automated
|
|
|
|
You can install **Emacs Prelude** via the command line with either `curl` or
|
|
`wget`. Naturally `git` is also required.
|
|
|
|
#### Via Curl
|
|
|
|
If you're using `curl` type the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -L https://github.com/bbatsov/prelude/raw/master/utils/installer.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Via Wget
|
|
|
|
If you're using `wget` type:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/bbatsov/prelude/raw/master/utils/installer.sh -O - | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Manual
|
|
|
|
Make sure you do not have any `~/.emacs` file present.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone git://github.com/bbatsov/prelude.git path/to/local/repo
|
|
ln -s path/to/local/repo ~/.emacs.d
|
|
cd ~/.emacs.d
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you are using Windows, you should check what Emacs thinks the `~` directory is by running Emacs and typing `C-x d ~/<RET>`, and then adjust the command appropriately.
|
|
|
|
## Updating Prelude
|
|
|
|
### Manual update
|
|
|
|
The update procedure is fairly straightforward and consists of 3 steps:
|
|
|
|
#### Update all bundled packages
|
|
|
|
Just run <kbd>M-x package-list-packages RET U x</kbd>.
|
|
|
|
#### Update Prelude's code
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd path/to/prelude/installation
|
|
git pull
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `path/to/prelude/installation` is usually `~/.emacs.d` (at least
|
|
on Unix systems).
|
|
|
|
#### Restart Prelude
|
|
|
|
It's generally a good idea to stop Emacs after you do the update. The
|
|
next time Prelude starts it will install any new dependencies (if
|
|
there are such).
|
|
|
|
### Automatic update
|
|
|
|
Simply run <kbd>M-x prelude-update</kbd> from Emacs itself and restart Emacs afterwards.
|
|
|
|
## Pinning packages
|
|
|
|
By default, Prelude will install packages from the melpa and gnu package
|
|
repositories. Occasionally package integration can break when upgrading packages.
|
|
This can be avoided by pinning packages to stable versions in other repositories.
|
|
To do so, copy `prelude-pinned-packages.el` from the sample directory to
|
|
Prelude's root directory and adjust the [variables](https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Package-Installation.html)
|
|
inside accordingly.
|
|
|
|
## Enabling additional modules
|
|
|
|
By default most of the modules that ship with Prelude are not loaded. For more information on the functionality provided by these modules visit the [docs](modules/index.md).
|
|
|
|
```lisp
|
|
;;; Uncomment the modules you'd like to use and restart Prelude afterwards
|
|
|
|
(require 'prelude-c)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-clojure)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-coffee)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-common-lisp)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-css)
|
|
(require 'prelude-emacs-lisp)
|
|
(require 'prelude-erc)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-erlang)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-elixir)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-haskell)
|
|
(require 'prelude-js)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-latex)
|
|
(require 'prelude-lisp)
|
|
(require 'prelude-org)
|
|
(require 'prelude-perl)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-python)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-ruby)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-scala)
|
|
(require 'prelude-scheme)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-scss)
|
|
;; (require 'prelude-web)
|
|
(require 'prelude-xml)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You'll need to adjust your `prelude-modules.el` file once the
|
|
installation is done. If you are doing a manual install then you first
|
|
need to copy the `prelude-modules.el` available in the sample
|
|
directory to the root of `path/to/prelude/installation` and then
|
|
adjust that one.
|
|
|
|
After you've uncommented a module you should either restart Emacs or evaluate the module
|
|
`require` expression with <kbd>C-x C-e</kbd>.
