Folding with outline-minor-mode

[tpeacock19]

I just posted this on reddit but thought it may be useful to include in the README as an alternative to using origami to auto-fold.

(use-package outline
  :after org-super-agenda
  :general (:keymaps org-super-agenda-header-map
            "TAB" #'outline-cycle)
  :config
  (defvar org-super-agenda-auto-fold-groups '("Stuck Tasks" "Other items" "Notice"))

  ;; function borrowed from new fork of origami.el https://github.com/emacs-origami/origami.el/blob/master/origami.el#L1024
  (defun outline-auto-agenda (pattern-or-patterns function)
    "Search buffer and apply the FUNCTION on each line.
PATTERN-OR-PATTERNS is a string or a list of strings to search"
    (interactive)
    (let ((patterns (if (listp pattern-or-patterns) pattern-or-patterns (list pattern-or-patterns))))
      (save-excursion
        (dolist (pattern patterns)
          (goto-char (point-min))
          (while (re-search-forward pattern nil t 1)
            (unless (outline-invisible-p)
              (funcall function)))))))

  (defun outline-agenda-setup ()
    (setq-local outline-regexp org-super-agenda-header-prefix)
    (setq-local outline-level #'outline-level)
    (setq-local outline-heading-alist
                `((,org-super-agenda-header-prefix . 1)))
    (outline-auto-agenda org-super-agenda-auto-fold-groups #'outline-hide-subtree))

  :hook ((org-agenda-mode . outline-minor-mode)
         (org-agenda-finalize . outline-agenda-setup)))

Hi, thanks, that's very cool. It never occurred to me to use outline-minor-mode for that. I'll add it to the docs sometime... :)

Why did you close this? I intend to add it to the docs eventually, but there are a lot of other issues on my Emacs-related to-do lists. It does no harm to leave the issue open until it's done.

oh sorry i was cleaning up my notifications and thought this may have just been noise for you.

No problem. I lean towards Debian's philosophy of bug tracking: If it still needs to be done, the issue should remain open. If there's noise, it means the bug tracker software needs to do a better job of helping the user filter it. :)
