Emacs
=====
GNU Emacs is an extensible, customizable text editor - and more. At its core is
an interpreter for Emacs Lisp, a dialect of the
`Lisp programming language <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisp_programming_language>`_
with extensions to support text editing.
This software can be used with:
* all available :ref:`platforms`
* all available :ref:`frameworks`
Refer to the `Emacs Documentation <https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/#Manuals>`_
page for more detailed information.

Integration
-----------
PlatformIO-Mode
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
An Emacs minor mode has been written to facilitate building and uploading from within Emacs.
It can be installed from the MELPA repository using ``M-x package-install``.
See the MELPA `Getting Started <https://melpa.org/#/getting-started>`_ page for more information.
Setup instructions for the minor mode can be found at the `Github page <https://github.com/ZachMassia/platformio-mode>`_.
Code completion can optionally be provided by installing `irony-mode <https://github.com/Sarcasm/irony-mode>`_
Project Generator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You can generate an Emacs compatible project using
:option:`platformio init --ide` command. Please choose board type using
:ref:`cmd_boards` command and run:
.. code-block:: shell
platformio init --ide emacs --board %TYPE%
cmake .
There are 4 predefined targets for building.
* ``platformio_build`` - Build project without auto-uploading. (``C-c i b``)
* ``platformio_upload`` - Build and upload (if no errors). (``C-c i u``)
* ``platformio_clean`` - Clean compiled objects. (``C-c i c``)
* ``platformio_update`` - Update installed platforms and libraries. (``C-C i d``)
.. warning::
The libraries which are added, installed or used in the project
after generating process wont be reflected in IDE. To fix it you
need to reinitialize project using :ref:`cmd_init` (repeat it).
