Nyxt Configuration

• Keybindings
• Theme
• Password Management

  • Redirection

Nyxt is a browser written in Common Lisp that follows the same philosophy of extensibility as Emacs. This makes it a perfect companion to an Emacs centered eco-system when you need a browser with more features than Eww or w3m.

Keybindings

;; Vim-normal mode by default
(define-configuration buffer
  ((default-modes (append '(vi-normal-mode) '(blocker-mode) %slot-default%))))

;; Vim-insert for prompt-buffer (minibuffer)
(define-configuration prompt-buffer
  ((default-modes (append '(vi-insert-mode) %slot-default%))))

;; Keybindings
;; (Note: Override Map will override any other custom keybindings so use a prefix key.)
(define-configuration buffer
  ((override-map (define-key %slot-default%
                   "C-x s" 'nyxt/web-mode:search-buffers
                   "C-x u" 'copy-username
                   "C-x p" 'copy-password))))

                :background-image "none !important"
                :color "#556B2F !important"))))))

Password Management

Password managers are an essential feature and thankfully Nyxt allows me to integrate KeepassXC which I use regularly.

(define-configuration password:keepassxc-interface
  ((password:password-file "/home/opal/.config/keepassxc/.kdbx-store/opal.kdbx")))
   
(define-configuration buffer
  ((password-interface (make-instance 'password:user-keepassxc-interface))))

Misc

Redirection

I would like to keep expanding on these redirection functions so I can have native redirection away from sites that don't respect user privacy.

;; I would like to implement redirection, or some extension to handle it for me.
;; todo: Redirect reddit to teddit
;; (defun old-reddit-handler (request-data)
;;   (let ((url (url request-data)))
;;     (setf (url request-data)
;;           (if (search "reddit.com" (quri:uri-host url))
;;               (progn
;;                 (setf (quri:uri-host url) "old.reddit.com")
;;                 (log:info "Switching to old Reddit: ~s" (render-url url))
;;                 url)
;;               url)))
;;   request-data)

;; (define-configuration web-buffer
;;   ((request-resource-hook
;;     (hooks:add-hook %slot-default% (make-handler-resource #'old-reddit-handler)))))
;; (See url-dispatching-handler for a simpler way to achieve the same result.)
