Usage

🔨 This module’s usage documentation is incomplete. Complete it?

File templates are automatically expanded when opening empty files who match one of the rules in the +file-templates-alist variable.

These templates are simply yasnippet snippets, which can also be expanded by typing their trigger and pressing TAB. By convention, the triggers for file templates are prefixed with two underscores __ (the trigger for the default file template of a major mode is almost always __).

Inserting OSS licenses

A special command is available for inserting software licenses: M-x +file-templates/insert-license.

📌 Licenses with a -bp suffix are boilerplate templates; i.e. shorter versions intended for comment headers in code files.

Configuration

🔨 This module’s configuration documentation is incomplete. Complete it?

Adding new or changing existing file templates

New file templates can be added to $DOOMDIR/snippets/{major-mode}/{snippet-name}. The yasnippet documentation covers how to write a snippet. You can map a snippet to a file path, major mode, or another arbitrary predicate using fn:set-file-template!.

Look into its documentation with <help> f set-file-template\!.

Adding new OSS licenses

Add snippet files to $DOOMDIR/snippets/text-mode/ with the __licenses- prefix and fn:+file-templates/insert-license will recognize them. E.g. $DOOMDIR/snippets/text-mode/__license-mit.

Troubleshooting

  • If a file template isn’t expanding where you expect it to, run M-x +file-templates/debug. This will report to you what file template rule would apply for the correct file.
