# emacs-with-config
**Deprecated**: Much better & maintained version is here: https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay
This function will give you an Emacs derivation which loads the given
script alongside with all the packages mentioned in it via `use-package`.
* default.nix:
```
let
pkgs = import {};
emacsWithConfig = pkgs.callPackage
(builtins.fetchTarball "https://github.com/utdemir/emacs-with-config/archive/master.tar.gz")
{};
in
emacsWithConfig ./emacs.el
```
* emacs.el:
```
(require 'use-package)
(use-package undo-tree
:defer 2
:init
(setq undo-tree-visualizer-timestamps t)
:config
(global-undo-tree-mode))
(use-package magit
:bind
("C-x m" . magit-status))
```
To be more precise, it will:
1. Parse the given script to find the `use-package` usages and collect
the required packages.
2. Use `pkgs.emacsWithPackages` to get an emacs distribution with
the required packages.
3. Bytecompile the given script.
4. Wrap `pkgs.emacs` to load the given script by default.
