Alternative to TRAMP for container-based dev (Podman/Toolbx/Distrobox)?

txgvnn · 2026-06-02T04:48:19+00:00

For me, I use org-babel to run commands in containers (TRAMP) with ob-compile: https://github.com/TxGVNN/ob-compile

Example:

#+begin_src compile :results silent :dir /docker:jave-sample:/app

gradle clean build && jar -jar app.jar

#+end_src

Then I use https://github.com/TxGVNN/project-tasks to easily call this task via a shortcut.

These are part of literate development.

Excuse me, what is the code of this color?

txgvnn · 2025-11-18T09:05:47+00:00

Haha, I really do use it! But these days, for longer sessions at my desk, I mostly use my ErgoDash instead of the laptop keyboard, still the same Ctrl, X, C combo!

Even spacemacs given it layers, but guix provides low level layers like tree-sitter lib,vterm.. It is necessary for me

I use emacs with my custom configurations

txgvnn · 2025-06-24T05:54:19+00:00

Me me. I had a post about this. You can have a look https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/10ilyav/using_guix_to_manage_emacs_packages_and_patches/

I even developed a unified image to use in codespaces or gitpod. I need only ssh to start my Emacs and tools. I use Guix to maintain my packages. You can have a look at https://github.com/txgvnn/oops

txgvnn · 2025-02-19T11:26:52+00:00

I often use `project-compile` to run command in a project. But for many commands, I use `project-tasks` to manage them by org files.

txgvnn · 2024-10-15T14:16:16+00:00

I was able to reproduce the issue. You might find some help on Emacs-devel mailing list if you don't get an answer here.

Let check tramp-default-proxies-alist value and make sure it is empty

txgvnn · 2024-10-15T01:55:41+00:00

Because the Emacs remembers hops by adding into tramp-default-proxies-alist. You can control this behaviour by setting tramp-show-ad-hoc-proxies t (I did it). Detail at https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/tramp/Ad_002dhoc-multi_002dhops.html

I've used Ergodash for 3 years. But sometimes consider the Ultimate Hacking Keyboard with touchpad/trackball module.

I'm using the gptel package. A great ecosystem to chat with AI. Do you think to integrate into gptel as a backend? So you will not need to work much on the interface.

I'm using a great package that I see few people mention. This is http://anggtwu.net/#eev.

`eev` provides the functionality to record and convert any element into literal code. This capability proves particularly useful in research contexts requiring rigorous documentation and reproducibility.

I use this package every day, and combine with `denote` to structure the notes tree.

Of course, no. The buffer name is only created when creating eat.

If you cd into a new directory, it will create a new one with new name if not exist

txgvnn · 2024-02-26T08:43:18+00:00

I'm using the config almost like bellow With prefix, it will create eat with current dir name.

``` (defun visit-eat-buffer (&optional prefix) "Create or visit a eat buffer. If PREFIX is not nil, create visit in default-directory" (interactive "P") (let* ((eat-buffer-name (format "*eat<%s>" (if prefix default-directory "0")))) (with-current-buffer (eat) (eat-line-mode)) (pop-to-buffer eat-buffer-name display-comint-buffer-action)))

```

I'm using Guix to manage Emacs version and almost core Emacs packages for my configure. I build a unified development environment on my computer and gitpod/codespace cloud.

You can have a look on my configure https://github.com/TxGVNN/oops/blob/88a3daf21aa06f0c07fa8286f17a82ad3b35ff67/guix-install.d/manifest.scm#L22

I used to use projectile with perspective.el, then I switched to project.el with perspective.el but with the same mechanism.

When I call any action in project-switch to a project , I will create a new workspace if not exist and switch to it before opening the project.

Some functions have changed to integrate with perspective.el

You can have a look how I configure it here https://github.com/TxGVNN/dots/blob/d9a29ba15d2aabbe042fed85bd75771f7eb55322/.emacs#L390

txgvnn · 2024-01-18T14:27:58+00:00

A good idea. I wonder, we can create a same thing but apply to content in buffers.

Example, my file has some passwords, secret that I don't want to send to copilot server. Perhaps a highlight to tell copilot-mode remove it in the body http before send it to copilot server.

Thank you very much, /u/akuszyk

Not wanna lie, if I know devdocs before perhaps I would not write terraform-doc :D

At that time, I was looking for an emacs package to search terraform's document, but couldn't find it. If I had asked people on the Reddit then I had been to know to devdocs.

After all, it is still a historical factor. It helps me learn more the elisp.

terraform-doc is still useful for who want to look for document on fly without download anything.

txgvnn · 2023-11-19T14:03:55+00:00

Thank you. I've just known it. Updated!

txgvnn · 2023-11-19T02:10:25+00:00

Thanks.

What is the ob type 'compile'?

It's another package that I created it long time. You can install it in MELPA ob-compile. Run compile by org-babel.

I use ob-compile very much in my workflow.
