In the spirit of Marie Kondo, I'm tidying up!
TL;DR:
- Prefer .envrc `use_nix` and delete all dir-locals.nix files
- Remove ~all references to <nixpkgs>, <unstable>, <depot> and prefer
referencing each with briefcase.third_party.{pkgs,unstable,depot}
- Delete nixBufferFromShell function since I was only using that in
dir-locals.nix files
Problem:
Prettier was not running when I saved Emacs buffers.
Why?
- prettier-js-mode needs needs node; lorri exposes node to direnv; direnv
exposes node to Emacs; lorri was not working as expected.
Solution:
Now that I'm using nix-buffer, I can properly expose node (and other
dependencies) to my Emacs buffers. Now Prettier is working.
Commentary:
Since prettier hadn't worked for so long, I stopped thinking about it. As such,
I did not include it as a dependency in boilerplate/typescript. I added it
now. I retroactively ran prettier across a few of my frontend projects to unify
the code styling.
I may need to run...
```shell
$ cd ~/briefcase
$ nix-shell
$ npx prettier --list-different "**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,html,css,json}"
```
...to see which files I should have formatted.
I used the boilerplate/typescript project as a starting point. This project
fetches and renders books that I'm defining in a Contentful CMS that I created.
