In that buffer each +argument is prefixed with the key sequence that can be used to toggle it +or change its value. Likewise each suffix command is prefixed with the +key used to invoke it. Such a popup buffer might look like this: + + ,----------------------------------------- + |Switches + | -l Show graph (--graph) + | -d Show refnames (--decorate) + | + |Options + | =m Search messages (--grep="popup") + | =p Search patches (-G) + | + |Action + | l Show log for current branch + | o Show log for another branch + '----------------------------------------- + + The user could then for example type ‘-l’ to toggle the ‘--graph’ +*switch* (when it is on then it is shown in green, otherwise in gray), +or ‘=m’ to change the value of the *option* ‘--grep’. + + Once all arguments are as desired one invokes a suffix command, which +causes the popup buffer to disappear. The suffix command should then +retrieve the infix arguments in its ‘interactive’ form like this is done +for prefix arguments. + + While such "prefix-infix-suffix" combos were inspired by regular +prefix commands and prefix arguments, they are also quite different. +This should illustrate the most basic differences: + + • A regular prefix command + + /- command1 + prefix --- command2 + \- command3 + + • Prefix arguments + + /- command1 + C-u ... --- command2 + \- well any command + + • A Prefix-Infix-Suffix combo + + /- argument1 -\ /- suffix1 + prefix----- argument2 --+-- suffix2 + ^ \- argument3 -/ + | | + '--------' + (refresh buffer) + + This library was written as a replacement for ‘magit-key-mode’, which +was used in Magit releases before 2.1.0. It is used to implement all +"popups" in the current Magit release but a future release will switch +to yet another implementation. + + This library does not depend on any other Magit libraries and it is +distributed as a separate package, which makes it possible to use it in +packages that are not related to Magit. But keep in mind that it will +be deprecated eventually. + + +File: magit-popup.info, Node: Usage, Next: Defining Prefix and Suffix Commands, Prev: Introduction, Up: Top + +2 Usage +******* + +Every popup buffers created with a prefix command contains a section +named "Actions" listing the available suffix commands. Most buffers +also contain a "Switches" and/or an "Options" section which list the two +types of infix arguments separately. + + Switches are arguments that can be toggled on or off. When a switch +is active then it is shown in color, when it is off then it is shown in +gray (of course the details depend on the color theme in use). + + Options are arguments that have a value. When an option has a value +then that is shown after the option itself. Because for some options +the empty string is a valid value, options are additionally colorized +like switches to indicate whether they are active or not. + + The events bound to suffix commands are always single alphabetic +characters. The bindings for arguments are always two events long. For +switches the first key is always ‘-’, for options it is always ‘=’. The +second key is always an alphabetic character. + + By default popup buffers also feature a section listing commands +common to all popups. To avoid conflicts with suffix commands, the +bindings of these common commands are not alphabetic characters. This +section is shown by default so that documentation-resistant users get a +chance to notice them. + + -- User Option: magit-popup-show-common-commands + + This option controls whether the section that lists the commands + that are common to all popups is initially shown. + + By default this is not the case, but note that you can temporarily + show this section using ‘C-t’, which therefore is the only common + command you actually have to memorize. + +‘C-t’ (‘magit-popup-toggle-show-common-commands’) + + Show or hide the section listing the commands shared by all popups. + +‘C-g’ (‘magit-popup-quit’) + + Quit popup buffer without invoking a suffix command. + + Without further action, setting arguments only affects the next +suffix command. Invoking the same prefix command again resets the +arguments to their default value, but the defaults can be changed +directly from the popup buffer itself. For a prefix command named +‘NAME-popup’ the default values are stored as the value of the custom +option named ‘NAME-arguments’. While this option can be customized +using the Custom interface, it is better to do so directly from the +popup buffer. + +‘C-c C-c’ (‘magit-popup-set-default-arguments’) + + This sets the default value for the arguments for the current + popup. + + Then the popup buffer is closed without invoking a suffix command; + unless a prefix argument is used in which case the popup remains + open. + +‘C-x C-s’ (‘magit-popup-save-default-arguments’) + + This sets the default value for the arguments for the current popup + and saves it for future Emacs sessions. + + Then the popup buffer is closed without invoking an action; unless + a prefix argument is used in which case the popup remains open. + + It is also possible to add additional arguments and commands to an +existing popup, but that cannot be done directly from the popup (or the +Custom interface). See *note Customizing Existing Popups::. + + Documentation about a popup’s arguments and commands can be shown +directly from the popup. + +‘C-h i’ (‘magit-popup-info’) + + Show this manual. + +‘?’ (‘magit-popup-help’) + + This command reads a key sequence and then shows the documentation + of the argument or command that sequence is bound to. In other + words type the same keys that you would use to invoke the argument + or command, but prefix the sequence with ‘?’. + + For suffix commands this shows the doc-string. For arguments this + command can only show something for popups that have an associated + man-page. If the man-page is set, then this command displays it in + a separate buffer and puts point on the entry about the argument in + question. + + The buffer which is used to display the documentation is selected. + Simply press ‘q’ to leave that buffer and restore the old window + configuration. + + While it isn’t very useful, it is possible to move around in a popup +buffer using ‘C-p’ and ‘C-n’, and to invoke the argument or command at +point using ‘RET’. But it is much more efficient to use the dedicated +key bindings instead, so these commands are not listed in popup buffers +along with the other common commands. + +* Menu: + +* Customizing Existing Popups:: +* Other Options:: + + +File: magit-popup.info, Node: Customizing Existing Popups, Next: Other Options, Up: Usage + +2.1 Customizing Existing Popups +=============================== + +It is possible to define additional infix arguments and suffix commands +to an existing popup using the following functions. + + You can find some examples which use the below commands at +<https://github.com/magit/magit/wiki/Additional-proposed-infix-arguments-and-suffix-commands>. + + -- Function: magit-define-popup-switch popup key desc switch &optional + enable at prepend + + In POPUP, define KEY as SWITCH. + + POPUP is a popup command defined using ‘magit-define-popup’. + SWITCH is a string representing an argument that takes no value. + KEY is a character representing the second event in the sequence of + keystrokes used to toggle the argument.

Once ‘transient’ has been released I will only +fix bugs in ‘magit-popup’ but not implement any new features. + + Also consider using ‘hydra’ instead. To some extend ‘magit-popup’ +and ‘hydra’ are similar but have a different focus. The main purpose of +‘magit-popup’ is to pass infix arguments to suffix commands. If all you +need is a command dispatcher then you are better of using ‘hydra’. Of +course ‘hydra’ may also be a better fit not only because of the features +it lacks, but also because of the features it provides, which are in +turn missing from ‘magit-popup’. + + Here is an example of how one defines a prefix command along with its +infix arguments, and then also one of its suffix commands. + + ;;;###autoload (autoload 'magit-tag-popup "magit" nil t) + (magit-define-popup magit-tag-popup + "Show popup buffer featuring tagging commands." + 'magit-commands + :man-page "git-tag" + :switches '((?a "Annotate" "--annotate") + (?s "Sign" "--sign") + (?f "Force" "--force")) + :actions '((?t "Create" magit-tag) + (?k "Delete" magit-tag-delete) + (?p "Prune" magit-tag-prune)) + :default-action 'magit-tag) + + ;;;###autoload + (defun magit-tag (name rev &optional args) + "Create a new tag with the given NAME at REV." + (interactive (list (magit-read-tag "Tag name") + (magit-read-branch-or-commit "Place tag on") + (magit-tag-arguments))) + (magit-run-git-with-editor "tag" args name rev)) + +* Menu: + +* Defining Prefix Commands:: +* Defining Suffix Commands:: + + +File: magit-popup.info, Node: Defining Prefix Commands, Next: Defining Suffix Commands, Up: Defining Prefix and Suffix Commands + +3.1 Defining Prefix Commands +============================ + +Prefix commands and their infix arguments are defined using the macro +‘magit-define-popup’. The key bindings and descriptions of suffix +commands are also defined using that macro, but the actual interactive +commands have to be defined separately using plain ‘defun’. + + -- Macro: magit-define-popup name doc [group [mode [option]]] :keyword + value... + + This macro defines a popup named NAME. The NAME should begin with + the package prefix and by convention end with ‘-popup’, it is used + as the name of the command which shows the popup and for an + internal variable (whose value is used to store information about + the popup and should not be accessed directly). DOC is the + doc-string of the popup command. + + This macro also defines an option and a function both named + ‘SHORTNAME-arguments’, where SHORTNAME is NAME with the trailing + ‘-popup’ removed. The name of this option and this function can be + overwritten using the optional argument OPTION, but that is rarely + advisable. As a special case if OPTION is specified but ‘nil’, + then this option and this function are not defined at all, which is + useful for popups that are used as simple dispatchers that offer no + arguments. + + The option ‘SHORTNAME-arguments’ holds the value for the popup + arguments. It can be customized from within the popup or using the + Custom interface. It can also have a buffer local value in any + non-popup buffer. The local value for the buffer from which the + popup command was invoked, can be set from within the popup buffer. + + The function ‘SHORTNAME-arguments’ returns the currently effective + value of the variable by the same name. See below for more + information. + + Optional argument GROUP specifies the Custom group into which the + option is placed. If omitted then the option is placed into some + group the same way it is done when directly using ‘defcustom’ and + omitting the group, except when NAME begins with "magit-", in which + case the group ‘magit-git-arguments’ is used. + + The optional argument MODE specifies the mode used by the popup + buffer. If it is omitted or ‘nil’ then ‘magit-popup-mode’ is used. + + The remaining arguments should have the form ‘[KEYWORD VALUE]...’. + + The following keywords are meaningful (and by convention are + usually specified in that order): + + • ‘:actions’ + + The actions which can be invoked from the popup. VALUE is a + list whose members have the form (KEY DESC COMMAND), see + ‘magit-define-popup-action’ for details. + + Actions are regular Emacs commands, which usually have an + ‘interactive’ form setup to consume the values of the popup + ‘:switches’ and ‘:options’ when invoked from the corresponding + popup, else when invoked as the default action or directly + without using the popup, the default value of the variable + ‘SHORTNAME-arguments’. This is usually done by calling the + function ‘SHORTNAME-arguments’. + + Members of VALUE may also be strings and functions, assuming + the first member is a string or function. In that case the + members are split into sections and these special elements are + used as headings. If such an element is a function then it is + called with no arguments and must return either a string, + which is used as the heading, or nil, in which case the + section is not inserted. + + Members of VALUE may also be nil. This should only be used + together with ‘:max-action-columns’ and allows having gaps in + the action grit, which can help arranging actions sensibly. + + • ‘:default-action’ + + The default action of the popup which is used directly instead + of displaying the popup buffer, when the popup is invoked with + a prefix argument. Also see ‘magit-popup-use-prefix-argument’ + and ‘:use-prefix’, which can be used to inverse the meaning of + the prefix argument. + + • ‘:use-prefix’ + + Controls when to display the popup buffer and when to invoke + the default action (if any) directly. This overrides the + global default set using ‘magit-popup-use-prefix-argument’. + The value, if specified, should be one of ‘default’ or + ‘prefix’, or a function that is called with no arguments and + returns one of these symbols. + + • ‘:max-action-columns’ + + The maximum number of actions to display on a single line, a + number or a function that return a number and takes the name + of the section currently being inserted as argument. If there + isn’t enough room to display as many columns as specified + here, then fewer are used. + + • ‘:switches’ + + The popup arguments which can be toggled on and off. VALUE is + a list whose members have the form ‘(KEY DESC SWITCH)’, see + ‘magit-define-popup-switch’ for details. + + Members of VALUE may also be strings and functions, assuming + the first member is a string or function. In that case the + members are split into sections and these special elements are + used as headings. If such an element is a function then it is + called with no arguments and must return either a string, + which is used as the heading, or nil, in which case the + section is not inserted. + + • ‘:options’ + + The popup arguments which take a value, as in "–opt~OPTVAL". + VALUE is a list whose members have the form ‘(KEY DESC OPTION + READER)’, see ‘magit-define-popup-option’ for details. + + Members of VALUE may also be strings and functions, assuming + the first member is a string or function. In that case the + members are split into sections and these special elements are + used as headings. If such an element is a function then it is + called with no arguments and must return either a string, + which is used as the heading, or nil, in which case the + section is not inserted. + + • ‘:default-arguments’ + + The default arguments, a list of switches (which are then + enabled by default) and options with there default values, as + in ‘"--OPT=OPTVAL"’. + + • ‘:variables’ + + Variables which can be set from the popup. VALUE is a list + whose members have the form ‘(KEY DESC COMMAND FORMATTER)’, + see ‘magit-define-popup-variable’ for details. + + Members of VALUE may also be strings and functions, assuming + the first member is a string or function. In that case the + members are split into sections and these special elements are + used as headings. If such an element is a function then it is + called with no arguments and must return either a string, + which is used as the heading, or nil, in which case the + section is not inserted. + + Members of VALUE may also be actions as described above for + ‘:actions’. + + VALUE may also be a function that returns a list as describe + above. + + • ‘:sequence-predicate’ + + When this function returns non-nil, then the popup uses + ‘:sequence-actions’ instead of ‘:actions’, and does not show + the ‘:switches’ and ‘:options’. + + • ‘:sequence-actions’ + + The actions which can be invoked from the popup, when + ‘:sequence-predicate’ returns non-nil. + + • ‘:setup-function’ + + When this function is specified, then it is used instead of + ‘magit-popup-default-setup’. + + • ‘:refresh-function’ + + When this function is specified, then it is used instead of + calling ‘magit-popup-insert-section’ three times with symbols + ‘magit-popup-switch-button’, ‘magit-popup-option-button’, and + finally ‘magit-popup-action-button’ as argument. + + • ‘:man-page’ + + The name of the manpage to be displayed when the user requests + help for an argument. + + +File: magit-popup.info, Node: Defining Suffix Commands, Prev: Defining Prefix Commands, Up: Defining Prefix and Suffix Commands + +3.2 Defining Suffix Commands +============================ + +Commands intended to be invoked from a particular popup should determine +the currently effective arguments by calling the function +‘SHORTNAME-arguments’ inside their ‘interactive’ form. This function is +created by the ‘magit-define-popup’ macro. For a popup named +‘prefix-foo-popup’ the name of this function is ‘prefix-foo-arguments’. + + When the command was invoked as an action in the respective popup, +then this function returns the arguments that were set in the popup. +Otherwise when the command was invoked as the default of the popup (by +calling the popup command with a prefix argument), or without using the +popup command at all, then this function returns the buffer-local or +global value of the variable ‘SHORTNAME-arguments’. + + Internally arguments are handled as a list of strings. This might +not be appropriate for the intended use inside commands, or it might be +necessary to manipulate that list somehow, i.e. to split "–ARG=VAL" +into "–ARG""VAL". This should be done by advising or redefining the +function ‘SHORTNAME-arguments’. + + Internally ‘SHORNAME-arguments’ used following variables and +function. Except when redefining the former, you should not use these +directly. + + -- Variable: magit-current-popup + + The popup from which this editing command was invoked. + + -- Variable: magit-current-popup-args + + The value of the popup arguments for this editing command. + + If the current command was invoked from a popup, then this is a + list of strings of all the set switches and options.

The value is the same as that of the variable by + the same name, except that FILTER is applied. FILTER is a list of + regexps; only arguments that match one of them are returned.
