Emacs: consult-denote version 0.2.0
Glue code to integrate my denote
package with Daniel Mendler’s
consult
. The idea is to enhance minibuffer interactions, such as by
providing a preview of the file-to-linked/opened and by adding more
sources to the consult-buffer
command.

Below are the release notes
Version 0.2.0 on 2024-09-15
The command consult-denote-find
always previews files
This command will search for matching file names through the
denote-directory
. It now previews the selected file in the
minibuffer, whereas before the preview had to be triggered manually.
Remember that you can customise what command is actually called, per
consult-denote-find-command
(default is consult-find
, with
consult-fd
as another likely choice).
The commands denote-find-link
and denote-find-backlink
have previews
This is relevant when consult-denote-mode
is enabled. This mode
makes changes in the background to make all file-related Denote
minibuffer prompts have the preview functionality. The idea is that
users keep the same workflow and overall style, while benefiting from
the added features.
Thanks to hapst3r for suggesting something similar which made me
realise those commands were not actually covered by consult-denote-mode
.
[ If there are more Denote commands that you think could benefit from
consult-denote-mode
but are not covered yet, please let me know. ]
The package now has a manual and change log
You can find the relevant source files in consult-denote.git and their web pages on my website.
