It reproduces some of Roam Research’s (https://roamresearch.com/) (1) key features within Org-mode (https://orgmode.org/). Org-roam allows for effortless non-hierarchical note-taking: with Org-roam, notes flow naturally, making note-taking fun and easy. Org-roam augments the Org-mode syntax, and will work for anyone already using Org-mode for their personal wiki. Org-roam leverages the mature ecosystem around Org-mode. For example, it has first-class support for org-ref (https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref) for citation management, and is able to piggyback off Org’s excellent LaTeX and source-block evaluation capabilities. Org-roam provides these benefits over other tooling: • *Privacy and Security:* Your personal wiki belongs only to you, entirely offline and in your control. Encrypt your notes with GPG. • *Longevity of Plain Text:* Unlike web solutions like Roam Research, the notes are first and foremost plain Org-mode files – Org-roam simply builds an auxiliary database to give the personal wiki superpowers. Having your notes in plain-text is crucial for the longevity of your wiki. Never have to worry about proprietary web solutions being taken down. The notes are still functional even if Org-roam ceases to exist. • *Free and Open Source:* Org-roam is free and open-source, which means that if you feel unhappy with any part of Org-roam, you may choose to extend Org-roam, or open a pull request. • *Leverage the Org-mode ecosystem:* Over the decades, Emacs and Org-mode has developed into a mature system for plain-text organization. Building upon Org-mode already puts Org-roam light-years ahead of many other solutions. • *Built on Emacs:* Emacs is also a fantastic interface for editing text, and Org-roam inherits many of the powerful text-navigation and editing packages available to Emacs. ---------- Footnotes ---------- (1) To understand more about Roam, a collection of links are available in *note Note-taking Workflows::.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Target Audience, Next: A Brief Introduction to the Zettelkasten Method, Prev: Introduction, Up: Top 2 Target Audience ***************** Org-roam is a tool that will appear unfriendly to anyone unfamiliar with Emacs and Org-mode, but it is also extremely powerful to those willing to put effort in mastering the intricacies. Org-roam stands on the shoulders of giants. Emacs was first created in 1976, and remains the tool of choice for many for editing text and designing textual interfaces. The malleability of Emacs allowed the creation of Org-mode, an all-purpose plain-text system for maintaining TODO lists, planning projects, and authoring documents. Both of these tools are incredibly vast and require significant time investment to master. Org-roam assumes only basic familiarity with these tools. It is not difficult to get up and running with basic text-editing functionality, but one will only fully appreciate the power of building Roam functionality into Emacs and Org-mode when the usage of these tools become more advanced. One key advantage to Org-roam is that building on top of Emacs gives it malleability. This is especially important for note-taking workflows. It is our belief that note-taking workflows are extremely personal, and there is no one tool that’s perfect for you. Org-mode and Org-roam allows you to discover what works for you, and build that perfect tool for yourself. If you are new to the software, and choose to take this leap of faith, I hope you find yourself equally entranced as Neal Stephenson was. Emacs outshines all other editing software in approximately the same way that the noonday sun does the stars. It is not just bigger and brighter; it simply makes everything else vanish. – Neal Stephenson, In the Beginning was the Command Line (1998)  File: org-roam.info, Node: A Brief Introduction to the Zettelkasten Method, Next: Installation, Prev: Target Audience, Up: Top 3 A Brief Introduction to the Zettelkasten Method ************************************************* Org-roam provides utilities for maintaining a digital slip-box. This section aims to provide a brief introduction to the “slip-box”, or “Zettelkasten” method. By providing some background on the method, we hope that the design decisions of Org-roam will become clear, and that will aid in using Org-roam appropriately. In this section we will introduce terms commonly used within the Zettelkasten community and the Org-roam forums. The Zettelkasten is a personal tool for thinking and writing. It places heavy emphasis on connecting ideas, building up a web of thought. Hence, it is well suited for knowledge workers and intellectual tasks, such as conducting research. The Zettelkasten can act as a research partner, where conversations with it may produce new and surprising lines of thought. This method is attributed to German sociologist Niklas Luhmann, who using the method had produced volumes of written works. Luhmann’s slip-box was simply a box of cards. These cards are small – often only large enough to fit a single concept. The size limitation encourages ideas to be broken down into individual concepts. These ideas are explicitly linked together. The breakdown of ideas encourages tangential exploration of ideas, increasing the surface for thought. Making linking explicit between notes also encourages one to think about the connections between concepts. At the corner of each note, Luhmann ascribed each note with an ordered ID, allowing him to link and jump between notes. In Org-roam, we simply use hyperlinks. Org-roam is the slip-box, digitalized in Org-mode. Every zettel (card) is a plain-text, Org-mode file. In the same way one would maintain a paper slip-box, Org-roam makes it easy to create new zettels, pre-filling boilerplate content using a powerful templating system. *Fleeting notes* A slip-box requires a method for quickly capturing ideas. These are called *fleeting notes*: they are simple reminders of information or ideas that will need to be processed later on, or trashed. This is typically accomplished using ‘org-capture’ (see *note (org)Capture::), or using Org-roam’s daily notes functionality (see *note Org-roam Dailies::). This provides a central inbox for collecting thoughts, to be processed later into permanent notes. *Permanent notes* Permanent notes are further split into two categories: *literature notes* and *concept notes*. Literature notes can be brief annotations on a particular source (e.g. book, website or paper), that you’d like to access later on. Concept notes require much more care in authoring: they need to be self-explanatory and detailed. Org-roam’s templating system supports the addition of different templates to facilitate the creation of these notes. For further reading on the Zettelkasten method, “How to Take Smart Notes” by Sonke Ahrens is a decent guide.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Installation, Next: Getting Started, Prev: A Brief Introduction to the Zettelkasten Method, Up: Top 4 Installation ************** Org-roam can be installed using Emacs’ package manager or manually from its development repository. * Menu: * Installing from MELPA:: * Installing from Source:: * Installation Troubleshooting::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Installing from MELPA, Next: Installing from Source, Up: Installation 4.1 Installing from MELPA ========================= Org-roam is available from Melpa and Melpa-Stable. If you haven’t used Emacs’ package manager before, you may familiarize yourself with it by reading the documentation in the Emacs manual, see *note (emacs)Packages::. Then, add one of the archives to ‘package-archives’: • To use Melpa: (require 'package) (add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/") t) • To use Melpa-Stable: (require 'package) (add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa-stable" . "http://stable.melpa.org/packages/") t) Org-roam also depends on a recent version of Org, which can be obtained in Org’s package repository (see *note (org)Installation::). To use Org’s ELPA archive: (add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "https://orgmode.org/elpa/") t) Once you have added your preferred archive, you need to update the local package list using: M-x package-refresh-contents RET Once you have done that, you can install Org-roam and its dependencies using: M-x package-install RET org-roam RET  File: org-roam.info, Node: Installing from Source, Next: Installation Troubleshooting, Prev: Installing from MELPA, Up: Installation 4.2 Installing from Source ========================== You may install Org-roam directly from the repository on GitHub (https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam) if you like. This will give you access to the latest version hours or days before it appears on MELPA, and months (or more) before it is added to the Debian or Ubuntu repositories. This will also give you access to various developmental branches that may be available. Note, however, that development version, and especially any feature branches, may not always be in working order. You’ll need to be prepared to do some debugging, or to manually roll-back to working versions, if you install from GitHub. Installing from GitHub requires that you clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam.git /path/to/org/roam where ‘./path/to/org/roam’ is the location you will store your copy of the code. Next, you need to add this location to your load path, and ‘require’ the Org-roam library. Add the following code to your ‘.emacs’: (add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/org/roam") (require 'org-roam) You now have Org-roam installed. However, you don’t necessarily have the dependencies that it requires. These include: • dash • f • s • org • emacsql • emacsql-sqlite • magit-section You can install this manually as well, or get the latest version from MELPA. You may wish to use use-package (https://github.com/jwiegley/use-package), straight.el (https://github.com/raxod502/straight.el) to help manage this. If you would like to install the manual for access from Emacs’ built-in Info system, you’ll need to compile the .texi source file, and install it in an appropriate location. To compile the .texi source file, from a terminal navigate to the ‘/doc’ subdirectory of the Org-roam repository, and run the following: make infodir=/path/to/my/info/files install-info Where ‘/path/to/my/info/files’ is the location where you keep info files. This target directory needs to be stored in the variable ‘Info-default-directory-list‘. If you aren’t using one of the default info locations, you can configure this with the following in your ‘.emacs’ file: (require 'info) (add-to-list 'Info-default-directory-list "/path/to/my/info/files") You can also use one of the default locations, such as: • _usr/local/share/info_ • _usr/share/info_ • _usr/local/share/info_ If you do this, you’ll need to make sure you have write-access to that location, or run the above ‘make’ command as root. Now that the info file is ready, you need to add it to the corresponding ‘dir’ file: install-info /path/to/my/info/files/org-roam.info /path/to/my/info/files/dir  File: org-roam.info, Node: Installation Troubleshooting, Prev: Installing from Source, Up: Installation 4.3 Installation Troubleshooting ================================ * Menu: * C Compiler::  File: org-roam.info, Node: C Compiler, Up: Installation Troubleshooting 4.3.1 C Compiler ---------------- Org-roam relies on an Emacs package called ‘emacsql’ and ‘emacsql-sqlite’ to work with the ‘sqlite’ database. Both of them should be installed automatically in your Emacs environment as a prerequisite for Org-roam when you install it. ‘emacsql-sqlite’ requires a C compiler (e.g. ‘gcc’ or ‘clang’) to be present in your computer. How to install a C compiler depends on the OS that you use. • For Windows: There are various ways to install one, depending on how you have installed Emacs. If you use Emacs within a Cygwin or MinGW environment, then you should install a compiler using their respective package manager. If you have installed your Emacs from the GNU Emacs website (https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/), then the easiest way is to use MSYS2 (https://www.msys2.org/) as at the time of this writing: • Use the installer in the official website and install MSYS2 • Run MSYS2 • In the command-line tool, type the following and answer “Y” to proceed: pacman -S gcc Note that you do not need to manually set the PATH for MSYS2; the installer automatically takes care of it for you. • Open Emacs and call ‘M-x org-roam-db-autosync-mode’ This will automatically start compiling ‘emacsql-sqlite’; you should see a message in minibuffer. It may take a while until compilation completes. Once complete, you should see a new file ‘emacsql-sqlite.exe’ created in a subfolder named ‘sqlite’ under ‘emacsql-sqlite’ installation folder. It’s typically in your Emacs configuration folder like this: ‘/.config/emacs/elpa/emacsql-sqlite-20190727.1710/sqlite’  File: org-roam.info, Node: Getting Started, Next: Customizing Node Caching, Prev: Installation, Up: Top 5 Getting Started ***************** * Menu: * The Org-roam Node:: * Links between Nodes:: * Setting up Org-roam:: * Creating and Linking Nodes::  File: org-roam.info, Node: The Org-roam Node, Next: Links between Nodes, Up: Getting Started 5.1 The Org-roam Node ===================== We first begin with some terminology we’ll use throughout the manual. We term the basic denomination in Org-roam a node. We define a node as follows: A node is any headline or top level file with an ID. For example, with this example file content: :PROPERTIES: :ID: foo :END: #+title: Foo * Bar :PROPERTIES: :ID: bar :END: We create two nodes: • A file node “Foo” with id ‘foo’. • A headline node “Bar” with id ‘bar’. Headlines without IDs will not be considered Org-roam nodes. Org IDs can be added to files or headlines via the interactive command ‘M-x org-id-get-create’.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Links between Nodes, Next: Setting up Org-roam, Prev: The Org-roam Node, Up: Getting Started 5.2 Links between Nodes ======================= We link between nodes using Org’s standard ID link (e.g. ‘id:foo’). While only ID links will be considered during the computation of links between nodes, Org-roam caches all other links in the documents for external use.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Setting up Org-roam, Next: Creating and Linking Nodes, Prev: Links between Nodes, Up: Getting Started 5.3 Setting up Org-roam ======================= Org-roam’s capabilities stem from its aggressive caching: it crawls all files within ‘org-roam-directory’, and maintains a cache of all links and nodes. To start using Org-roam, pick a location to store the Org-roam files. The directory that will contain your notes is specified by the variable ‘org-roam-directory’. Org-roam searches recursively within ‘org-roam-directory’ for notes. This variable needs to be set before any calls to Org-roam functions. For this tutorial, create an empty directory, and set ‘org-roam-directory’: (make-directory "~/org-roam") (setq org-roam-directory (file-truename "~/org-roam")) The ‘file-truename’ function is only necessary when you use symbolic links inside ‘org-roam-directory’: Org-roam does not resolve symbolic links. Next, we setup Org-roam to run functions on file changes to maintain cache consistency. This is achieved by running ‘M-x org-roam-db-autosync-mode’. To ensure that Org-roam is available on startup, place this in your Emacs configuration: (org-roam-db-autosync-mode) To build the cache manually, run ‘M-x org-roam-db-sync’. Cache builds may take a while the first time, but subsequent builds are often instantaneous because they only reprocess modified files.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Creating and Linking Nodes, Prev: Setting up Org-roam, Up: Getting Started 5.4 Creating and Linking Nodes ============================== Org-roam makes it easy to create notes and link them together. There are 2 main functions for creating nodes: • ‘org-roam-node-insert’: creates a node if it does not exist, and inserts a link to the node at point. • ‘org-roam-node-find’: creates a node if it does not exist, and visits the node. • ‘org-roam-capture’: creates a node if it does not exist, and restores the current window configuration upon completion. Let’s first try ‘org-roam-node-find’. Calling ‘M-x org-roam-node-find’ will show a list of titles for nodes that reside in ‘org-roam-directory’. It should show nothing right now, since there are no notes in the directory. Enter the title of the note you wish to create, and press ‘RET’. This begins the note creation process. This process uses ‘org-capture’’s templating system, and can be customized (see *note The Templating System::). Using the default template, pressing ‘C-c C-c’ finishes the note capture. Now that we have a node, we can try inserting a link to the node using ‘M-x org-roam-node-insert’. This brings up the list of nodes, which should contain the node you just created. Selecting the node will insert an ‘id:’ link to the node. If you instead entered a title that does not exist, you will once again be brought through the node creation process. One can also conveniently insert links via the completion-at-point functions Org-roam provides (see *note Completion::).  File: org-roam.info, Node: Customizing Node Caching, Next: The Org-roam Buffer, Prev: Getting Started, Up: Top 6 Customizing Node Caching ************************** * Menu: * How to cache:: * What to cache:: * When to cache::  File: org-roam.info, Node: How to cache, Next: What to cache, Up: Customizing Node Caching 6.1 How to cache ================ Org-roam uses a sqlite database to perform caching, but there are multiple Emacs libraries that can be used. The default used by Org-roam is ‘emacs-sqlite’. Below the pros and cons of each package is used: **emacs-sqlite** (https://github.com/skeeto/emacsql) The default option used by Org-roam. This library is the most mature and well-supported and is imported by default in Org-roam. One downside of using ‘emacs-sqlite’ is that using it requires compilation and can cause issues in some environments (especially Windows). If you have issues producing the customized binary required by ‘emacs-sqlite’, consider using ‘emacs-sqlite3’. **emacs-sqlite3** (https://github.com/cireu/emacsql-sqlite3) ‘emacs-sqlite3’ uses the official sqlite3 binary that can be obtained from your system’s package manager. This is useful if you have issues producing the ‘sqlite3’ binary required by the other packages. However, it is not recommended because it has some compatibility issues with Emacs, but should work for most regular cases. See Chris Wellon’s blog post (https://nullprogram.com/blog/2014/02/06/) for more information. To use ‘emacsql-sqlite3’, ensure that the package is installed, and set: (setq org-roam-database-connector 'sqlite3) **emacsql-libsqlite3** (https://github.com/emacscollective/emacsql-libsqlite3/) ‘emacs-libsqlite3’ is a relatively young package which uses an Emacs module that exposes parts of the SQLite C API to Emacs Lisp, instead of using subprocess as ‘emacsql-sqlite’ does. It is expected to be a more performant drop-in replacement for ‘emacs-sqlite’. At the moment it is experimental and does not work well with the SQL query load required by Org-roam, but you may still try it by ensuring the package is installed and setting: (setq org-roam-database-connector 'libsqlite3)  File: org-roam.info, Node: What to cache, Next: When to cache, Prev: How to cache, Up: Customizing Node Caching 6.2 What to cache ================= By default, all nodes (any headline or file with an ID) are cached by Org-roam. There are instances where you may want to have headlines with ID, but not have them cached by Org-roam. To exclude a headline from the Org-roam database, set the ‘ROAM_EXCLUDE’ property to a non-nil value. For example: * Foo :PROPERTIES: :ID: foo :ROAM_EXCLUDE: t :END: One can also set ‘org-roam-db-node-include-function’. For example, to exclude all headlines with the ‘ATTACH’ tag from the Org-roam database, one can set: (setq org-roam-db-node-include-function (lambda () (not (member "ATTACH" (org-get-tags)))))  File: org-roam.info, Node: When to cache, Prev: What to cache, Up: Customizing Node Caching 6.3 When to cache ================= By default, Org-roam is eager in caching: each time an Org-roam file is modified and saved, it updates the database for the corresponding file. This keeps the database up-to-date, causing the least surprise when using the interactive commands. However, depending on how large your Org files are, database updating can be a slow operation. You can disable the automatic updating of the database by setting ‘org-roam-db-update-on-save’ to ‘nil’. -- Variable: org-roam-db-update-on-save If t, update the Org-roam database upon saving the file. Disable this if your files are large and updating the database is slow.  File: org-roam.info, Node: The Org-roam Buffer, Next: Node Properties, Prev: Customizing Node Caching, Up: Top 7 The Org-roam Buffer ********************* Org-roam provides the Org-roam buffer: an interface to view relationships with other notes (backlinks, reference links, unlinked references etc.). There are two main commands to use here: • ‘org-roam-buffer-toggle’: Launch an Org-roam buffer that tracks the node currently at point. This means that the content of the buffer changes as the point is moved, if necessary. • ‘org-roam-buffer-display-dedicated’: Launch an Org-roam buffer for a specific node without visiting its file. Unlike ‘org-roam-buffer-toggle’ you can have multiple such buffers and their content won’t be automatically replaced with a new node at point. To bring up a buffer that tracks the current node at point, call ‘M-x org-roam-buffer-toggle’. -- Function: org-roam-buffer-toggle Toggle display of the ‘org-roam-buffer’. To bring up a buffer that’s dedicated for a specific node, call ‘M-x org-roam-buffer-display-dedicated’. -- Function: org-roam-buffer-display-dedicated Launch node dedicated Org-roam buffer without visiting the node itself. * Menu: * Navigating the Org-roam Buffer:: * Configuring what is displayed in the buffer:: * Configuring the Org-roam buffer display:: * Styling the Org-roam buffer::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Navigating the Org-roam Buffer, Next: Configuring what is displayed in the buffer, Up: The Org-roam Buffer 7.1 Navigating the Org-roam Buffer ================================== The Org-roam buffer uses ‘magit-section’, making the typical ‘magit-section’ keybindings available. Here are several of the more useful ones: • ‘M-{N}’: ‘magit-section-show-level-{N}-all’ • ‘n’: ‘magit-section-forward’ • ‘’: ‘magit-section-toggle’ • ‘’: ‘org-roam-buffer-visit-thing’ ‘org-roam-buffer-visit-thing’ is a placeholder command, that is replaced by section-specific commands such as ‘org-roam-node-visit’.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Configuring what is displayed in the buffer, Next: Configuring the Org-roam buffer display, Prev: Navigating the Org-roam Buffer, Up: The Org-roam Buffer 7.2 Configuring what is displayed in the buffer =============================================== There are currently 3 provided widget types: • BacklinksView (preview of) nodes that link to this node • Reference LinksNodes that reference this node (see *note Refs::) • Unlinked referencesView nodes that contain text that match the nodes title/alias but are not linked To configure what sections are displayed in the buffer, set ‘org-roam-mode-section-functions’. (setq org-roam-mode-section-functions (list #'org-roam-backlinks-section #'org-roam-reflinks-section ;; #'org-roam-unlinked-references-section )) Note that computing unlinked references may be slow, and has not been added in by default.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Configuring the Org-roam buffer display, Next: Styling the Org-roam buffer, Prev: Configuring what is displayed in the buffer, Up: The Org-roam Buffer 7.3 Configuring the Org-roam buffer display =========================================== Org-roam does not control how the pop-up buffer is displayed: this is left to the user. The author’s recommended configuration is as follows: (add-to-list 'display-buffer-alist '("\\*org-roam\\*" (display-buffer-in-direction) (direction . right) (window-width . 0.33) (window-height . fit-window-to-buffer))) Crucially, the window is a regular window (not a side-window), and this allows for predictable navigation: • ‘RET’ navigates to thing-at-point in the current window, replacing the Org-roam buffer. • ‘C-u RET’ navigates to thing-at-point in the other window. For users that prefer using a side-window for the org-roam buffer, the following example configuration should provide a good starting point: (add-to-list 'display-buffer-alist '("\\*org-roam\\*" (display-buffer-in-side-window) (side . right) (slot . 0) (window-width . 0.33) (window-parameters . ((no-other-window . t) (no-delete-other-windows . t)))))  File: org-roam.info, Node: Styling the Org-roam buffer, Prev: Configuring the Org-roam buffer display, Up: The Org-roam Buffer 7.4 *TODO* Styling the Org-roam buffer ======================================  File: org-roam.info, Node: Node Properties, Next: Citations, Prev: The Org-roam Buffer, Up: Top 8 Node Properties ***************** * Menu: * Standard Org properties:: * Titles and Aliases:: * Tags:: * Refs::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Standard Org properties, Next: Titles and Aliases, Up: Node Properties 8.1 Standard Org properties =========================== Org-roam caches most of the standard Org properties. The full list now includes: • outline level • todo state • priority • scheduled • deadline • tags  File: org-roam.info, Node: Titles and Aliases, Next: Tags, Prev: Standard Org properties, Up: Node Properties 8.2 Titles and Aliases ====================== Each node has a single title. For file nodes, this is specified with the ‘#+title‘ property for the file. For headline nodes, this is the main text. Nodes can also have multiple aliases. Aliases allow searching for nodes via an alternative name. For example, one may want to assign a well-known acronym (AI) to a node titled “Artificial Intelligence”. To assign an alias to a node, add the “ROAM_ALIASES” property to the node: * Artificial Intelligence :PROPERTIES: :ROAM_ALIASES: AI :END: Alternatively, Org-roam provides some functions to add or remove aliases. -- Function: org-roam-alias-add alias Add ALIAS to the node at point. When called interactively, prompt for the alias to add. -- Function: org-roam-alias-remove Remove an alias from the node at point.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Tags, Next: Refs, Prev: Titles and Aliases, Up: Node Properties 8.3 Tags ======== Tags for top-level (file) nodes are pulled from the variable ‘org-file-tags’, which is set by the ‘#+filetags’ keyword, as well as other tags the file may have inherited. Tags for headline level nodes are regular Org tags. Note that the ‘#+filetags’ keyword results in tags being inherited by headers within the file. This makes it impossible for selective tag inheritance: i.e. either tag inheritance is turned off, or all headline nodes will inherit the tags from the file node. This is a design compromise of Org-roam.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Refs, Prev: Tags, Up: Node Properties 8.4 Refs ======== Refs are unique identifiers for nodes. These keys allow references to the key to show up in the Org-roam buffer. For example, a node for a website may use the URL as the ref, and a node for a paper may use an Org-ref citation key. To add a ref, add to the “ROAM_REFS” property as follows: * Google :PROPERTIES: :ROAM_REFS: https://www.google.com/ :END: With the above example, if another node links to , it will show up as a “reference backlink”. These keys also come in useful for when taking website notes, using the ‘roam-ref’ protocol (see *note Roam Protocol: Org-roam Protocol.). You may assign multiple refs to a single node, for example when you want multiple papers in a series to share the same note, or an article has a citation key and a URL at the same time. Org-roam also provides some functions to add or remove refs. -- Function: org-roam-ref-add ref Add REF to the node at point. When called interactively, prompt for the ref to add. -- Function: org-roam-ref-remove Remove a ref from the node at point.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Citations, Next: Completion, Prev: Node Properties, Up: Top 9 Citations *********** Since version 9.5, Org has first-class support for citations. Org-roam supports the caching of both these in-built citations (of form ‘[cite:@key]’) and org-ref (https://github.com/jkitchin/org-ref) citations (of form ). Org-roam attempts to load both the ‘org-ref’ and ‘org-cite’ package when indexing files, so no further setup from the user is required for citation support. * Menu: * Using the Cached Information::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Using the Cached Information, Up: Citations 9.1 Using the Cached Information ================================ It is common to use take reference notes for academic papers. To designate the node to be the canonical node for the academic paper, we can use its unique citation key: * Probabilistic Robotics :PROPERTIES: :ID: 51b7b82c-bbb4-4822-875a-ed548cffda10 :ROAM_REFS: @thrun2005probabilistic :END: for ‘org-cite’, or: * Probabilistic Robotics :PROPERTIES: :ID: 51b7b82c-bbb4-4822-875a-ed548cffda10 :ROAM_REFS: cite:thrun2005probabilistic :END: for ‘org-ref’. When another node has a citation for that key, we can see it using the ‘Reflinks’ section of the Org-roam buffer. Extension developers may be interested in retrieving the citations within their notes. This information can be found within the ‘citation’ table of the Org-roam database.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Completion, Next: Encryption, Prev: Citations, Up: Top 10 Completion ************* Completions for Org-roam are provided via ‘completion-at-point’. Org-roam currently provides completions in two scenarios: • When within an Org bracket link • Anywhere Completions are installed locally in all Org-roam files. To trigger completions, call ‘M-x completion-at-point’. If using ‘company-mode’, add ‘company-capf’ to ‘company-backends’. Completions respect ‘completion-styles’: the user is free to choose how candidates are matched. An example of a completion style that has grown in popularity is orderless (https://github.com/oantolin/orderless). * Menu: * Completing within Link Brackets:: * Completing anywhere::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Completing within Link Brackets, Next: Completing anywhere, Up: Completion 10.1 Completing within Link Brackets ==================================== Completions within link brackets are provided by ‘org-roam-complete-link-at-point’. The completion candidates are the titles and aliases for all Org-roam nodes. Upon choosing a candidate, a ‘roam:Title’ link will be inserted, linking to node of choice.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Completing anywhere, Prev: Completing within Link Brackets, Up: Completion 10.2 Completing anywhere ======================== The same completions can be triggered anywhere for the symbol at point if not within a bracketed link. This is provided by ‘org-roam-complete-everywhere’. Similarly, the completion candidates are the titles and aliases for all Org-roam nodes, and upon choosing a candidate a ‘roam:Title’ link will be inserted linking to the node of choice. This is disable by default. To enable it, set ‘org-roam-completion-everywhere’ to ‘t’: (setq org-roam-completion-everywhere t) -- Variable: org-roam-completion-everywhere When non-nil, provide link completion matching outside of Org links.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Encryption, Next: Org-roam Protocol, Prev: Completion, Up: Top 11 Encryption ************* Emacs has support for creating and editing encrypted gpg files, and Org-roam need not provide additional tooling. To create encrypted files, simply add the ‘.gpg’ extension in your Org-roam capture templates. For example: (setq org-roam-capture-templates '(("d" "default" plain "%?" :target (file+head "${slug}.org.gpg" "#+title: ${title}\n") :unnarrowed t))) Note that the Org-roam database stores metadata information in plain-text (headline text, for example), so if this information is private to you then you should also ensure the database is encrypted.

File: org-roam.info, Node: The Templating System, Next: Graphing, Prev: Org-roam Protocol, Up: Top 13 The Templating System ************************ Org-roam extends the ‘org-capture’ system, providing a smoother note-taking experience. However, these extensions mean Org-roam capture templates are incompatible with ‘org-capture’ templates. Org-roam’s templates are specified by ‘org-roam-capture-templates’. Just like ‘org-capture-templates’, ‘org-roam-capture-templates’ can contain multiple templates. If ‘org-roam-capture-templates’ only contains one template, there will be no prompt for template selection. * Menu: * Template Walkthrough:: * Org-roam Template Expansion::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Template Walkthrough, Next: Org-roam Template Expansion, Up: The Templating System 13.1 Template Walkthrough ========================= To demonstrate the additions made to org-capture templates. Here, we explain the default template, reproduced below. You will find most of the elements of the template are similar to ‘org-capture’ templates. (("d" "default" plain "%?" :target (file+head "%<%Y%m%d%H%M%S>-${slug}.org" "#+title: ${title}\n") :unnarrowed t)) • The template has short key ‘"d"’. If you have only one template, org-roam automatically chooses this template for you. • The template is given a description of ‘"default"’. • ‘plain’ text is inserted. Other options include Org headings via ‘entry’. • Notice that the ‘target’ that’s usually in Org-capture templates is missing here. • ‘"%?"’ is the template inserted on each call to ‘org-roam-capture-’. This template means don’t insert any content, but place the cursor here. • ‘:target’ is a compulsory specification in the Org-roam capture template. The first element of the list indicates the type of the target, the second element indicates the location of the captured node, and the rest of the elements indicate prefilled template that will be inserted and the position of the point will be adjusted for. The latter behavior varies from type to type of the capture target. • ‘:unnarrowed t’ tells org-capture to show the contents for the whole file, rather than narrowing to just the entry. This is part of the Org-capture templates. See the ‘org-roam-capture-templates’ documentation for more details and customization options.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Org-roam Template Expansion, Prev: Template Walkthrough, Up: The Templating System 13.2 Org-roam Template Expansion ================================ Org-roam’s template definitions also extend org-capture’s template syntax, to allow prefilling of strings. We have seen a glimpse of this in *note Template Walkthrough: Template Walkthrough. Org-roam provides the ‘${foo}’ syntax for substituting variables with known strings. ‘${foo}’’s substitution is performed as follows: • If ‘foo’ is a function, ‘foo’ is called with the current node as its argument. • Else if ‘org-roam-node-foo’ is a function, ‘foo’ is called with the current node as its argument. The ‘org-roam-node-’ prefix defines many of Org-roam’s node accessors such as ‘org-roam-node-title’ and ‘org-roam-node-level’. • Else look up ‘org-roam-capture--info’ for ‘foo’. This is an internal variable that is set before the capture process begins. • If none of the above applies, read a string using ‘completing-read’. • Org-roam also provides the ‘${foo=default_val}’ syntax, where if a default value is provided, will be the initial value for the ‘foo’ key during minibuffer completion. One can check the list of available keys for nodes by inspecting the ‘org-roam-node’ struct. At the time of writing, it is: (cl-defstruct (org-roam-node (:constructor org-roam-node-create) (:copier nil)) "A heading or top level file with an assigned ID property." file file-hash file-atime file-mtime id level point todo priority scheduled deadline title properties olp tags aliases refs) This makes ‘${file}’, ‘${file-hash}’ etc. all valid substitutions.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Graphing, Next: Org-roam Dailies, Prev: The Templating System, Up: Top 14 Graphing *********** Org-roam provides basic graphing capabilities to explore interconnections between notes, in ‘org-roam-graph’. This is done by performing SQL queries and generating images using Graphviz (https://graphviz.org/). The graph can also be navigated: see *note Roam Protocol: Org-roam Protocol. The entry point to graph creation is ‘org-roam-graph’. -- Function: org-roam-graph & optional arg node Build and display a graph for NODE. ARG may be any of the following values: • ‘nil’ show the full graph. • ‘integer’ an integer argument ‘N’ will show the graph for the connected components to node up to ‘N’ steps away. -- User Option: org-roam-graph-executable Path to the graphing executable (in this case, Graphviz). Set this if Org-roam is unable to find the Graphviz executable on your system. You may also choose to use ‘neato’ in place of ‘dot’, which generates a more compact graph layout. -- User Option: org-roam-graph-viewer Org-roam defaults to using Firefox (located on PATH) to view the SVG, but you may choose to set it to: • A string, which is a path to the program used • a function accepting a single argument: the graph file path. ‘nil’ uses ‘view-file’ to view the graph. If you are using WSL2 and would like to open the graph in Windows, you can use the second option to set the browser and network file path: (setq org-roam-graph-viewer (lambda (file) (let ((org-roam-graph-viewer "/mnt/c/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox.exe")) (org-roam-graph--open (concat "file://///wsl$/Ubuntu" file))))) * Menu: * Graph Options::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Graph Options, Up: Graphing 14.1 Graph Options ================== Graphviz provides many options for customizing the graph output, and Org-roam supports some of them. See for customizable options. -- User Option: org-roam-graph-filetype The file type to generate for graphs. This defaults to ‘"svg"’. -- User Option: org-roam-graph-extra-config Extra options passed to graphviz for the digraph (The “G” attributes). Example: ‘'~(("rankdir" . "LR"))’ -- User Option: org-roam-graph-node-extra-config An alist of options to style the nodes. The car of the alist node type such as ‘"id"’, or ‘"http"’. The cdr of the list is another alist of Graphviz node options (the “N” attributes). -- User Option: org-roam-graph-edge-extra-config Extra options for edges in the graphviz output (The “E” attributes).

It is included with GNU Emacs since version 20. ‘winner-mode’ can be used as a simple version of browser history for Org-roam. Each click through org-roam links (from both Org files and the backlinks buffer) causes changes in window configuration, which can be undone and redone using ‘winner-mode’. To use ‘winner-mode’, simply enable it, and bind the appropriate interactive functions: (winner-mode +1) (define-key winner-mode-map (kbd "") #'winner-undo) (define-key winner-mode-map (kbd "") #'winner-redo)  File: org-roam.info, Node: Versioning Notes, Next: Full-text search with Deft, Prev: Browsing History with winner-mode, Up: The Org-mode Ecosystem 17.2 Versioning Notes ===================== Since Org-roam notes are just plain text, it is trivial to track changes in your notes database using version control systems such as Git (https://git-scm.com/). Simply initialize ‘org-roam-directory’ as a Git repository, and commit your files at regular or appropriate intervals. Magit (https://magit.vc/) is a great interface to Git within Emacs.

It does this by checking for a file named ‘.dir-locals.el’. To add support for multiple directories, override the ‘org-roam-directory’ variable using directory-local variables. This is what ‘.dir-locals.el’ may contain: ((nil . ((org-roam-directory . (expand-file-name ".")) (org-roam-db-location .

Remember to run ‘org-roam-db-sync’ from a file within that directory, at least once.

The solution is dependent on the mini-buffer completion framework in use. Here are the solutions: • Ivycall ‘ivy-immediate-done’, typically bound to ‘C-M-j’. Alternatively, set ‘ivy-use-selectable-prompt’ to ‘t’, so that “bar” is now selectable. • HelmOrg-roam should provide a selectable “[?] bar” candidate at the top of the candidate list.

If you are noticing that IDs are being created even when you don’t want them to be (e.g. when tangling an Org file), check the value you have set for ‘org-id-link-to-org-use-id’: setting it to ‘'create-if-interactive’ is a popular option.

V2 has a smaller core and fewer moving parts, while retaining the bulk of its functionality. It is recommended to read the documentation above about nodes. It is still desirable to migrate notes collected in v1 to v2. To migrate your v1 notes to v2, use ‘M-x org-roam-migrate-wizard’. This blog post (https://d12frosted.io/posts/2021-06-11-path-to-org-roam-v2.html) provides a good overview of what’s new in v2 and how to migrate. Essentially, to migrate notes from v1 to v2, one must: • Add IDs to all existing notes. These are located in top-level property drawers (Although note that in v2, not all files need to have IDs). • Update the Org-roam database to conform to the new schema. • Replace ‘#+ROAM_KEY’ into the ‘ROAM_REFS’ property • Replace ‘#+ROAM_ALIAS’ into the ‘ROAM_ALIASES’ property • Move ‘#+ROAM_TAGS’ into the ‘#+FILETAGS’ property for file-level nodes, and the ‘ROAM_TAGS’ property for headline nodes • Replace existing file links with ID links.  File: org-roam.info, Node: How do I publish my notes with an Internet-friendly graph?, Prev: How to migrate from Org-roam v1?, Up: FAQ 18.6 How do I publish my notes with an Internet-friendly graph? =============================================================== The default graph builder creates a graph with an org-protocol (https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-protocol.html) handler which is convenient when you’re working locally but inconvenient when you want to publish your notes for remote access. Likewise, it defaults to displaying the graph in Emacs which has the exact same caveats. This problem is solvable in the following way using org-mode’s native publishing (https://orgmode.org/manual/Publishing.html) capability: • configure org-mode to publish your org-roam notes as a project. • create a function that overrides the default org-protocol link creation function(‘org-roam-default-link-builder’). • create a hook that’s called at the end of graph creation to copy the generated graph to the appropriate place. The example code below is used to publish to a local directory where a separate shell script copies the files to the remote site. * Menu: * Configure org-mode for publishing:: * Overriding the default link creation function:: * Copying the generated file to the export directory::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Configure org-mode for publishing, Next: Overriding the default link creation function, Up: How do I publish my notes with an Internet-friendly graph? 18.6.1 Configure org-mode for publishing ---------------------------------------- This has two steps: • Setting of a _roam_ project that publishes your notes. • Configuring the _sitemap.html_ generation. • Setting up ‘org-publish’ to generate the graph. This will require code like the following: (defun roam-sitemap (title list) (concat "#+OPTIONS: ^:nil author:nil html-postamble:nil\n" "#+SETUPFILE: ./simple_inline.theme\n" "#+TITLE: " title "\n\n" (org-list-to-org list) "\nfile:sitemap.svg")) (setq my-publish-time 0) ; see the next section for context (defun roam-publication-wrapper (plist filename pubdir) (org-roam-graph) (org-html-publish-to-html plist filename pubdir) (setq my-publish-time (cadr (current-time)))) (setq org-publish-project-alist '(("roam" :base-directory "~/roam" :auto-sitemap t :sitemap-function roam-sitemap :sitemap-title "Roam notes" :publishing-function roam-publication-wrapper :publishing-directory "~/roam-export" :section-number nil :table-of-contents nil :style "")))  File: org-roam.info, Node: Overriding the default link creation function, Next: Copying the generated file to the export directory, Prev: Configure org-mode for publishing, Up: How do I publish my notes with an Internet-friendly graph? 18.6.2 Overriding the default link creation function ---------------------------------------------------- The code below will generate a link to the generated html file instead of the default org-protocol link. (defun org-roam-custom-link-builder (node) (let ((file (org-roam-node-file node))) (concat (file-name-base file) ".html"))) (setq org-roam-graph-link-builder 'org-roam-custom-link-builder)  File: org-roam.info, Node: Copying the generated file to the export directory, Prev: Overriding the default link creation function, Up: How do I publish my notes with an Internet-friendly graph? 18.6.3 Copying the generated file to the export directory --------------------------------------------------------- The default behavior of ‘org-roam-graph’ is to generate the graph and display it in Emacs. There is an ‘org-roam-graph-generation-hook’ available that provides access to the file names so they can be copied to the publishing directory. Example code follows: (add-hook 'org-roam-graph-generation-hook (lambda (dot svg) (if (< (- (cadr (current-time)) my-publish-time) 5) (progn (copy-file svg "~/roam-export/sitemap.svg" 't) (kill-buffer (file-name-nondirectory svg)) (setq my-publish-time 0)))))  File: org-roam.info, Node: Developer's Guide to Org-roam, Next: Appendix, Prev: FAQ, Up: Top 19 Developer’s Guide to Org-roam ******************************** * Menu: * Org-roam's Design Principle:: * Building Extensions and Advanced Customization of Org-roam::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Org-roam's Design Principle, Next: Building Extensions and Advanced Customization of Org-roam, Up: Developer's Guide to Org-roam 19.1 Org-roam’s Design Principle ================================ Org-roam is primarily motivated by the need for a dual representation. We (humans) love operating in a plain-text environment. The syntax rules of Org-mode are simple and fit snugly within our brain. This also allows us to use the tools and packages we love to explore and edit our notes. Org-mode is simply the most powerful plain-text format available, with support for images, LaTeX, TODO planning and much more. But this plain-text format is simply ill-suited for exploration of these notes: plain-text is simply not amenable for answering large-scale, complex queries (e.g. how many tasks do I have that are due by next week?). Interfaces such as Org-agenda slow to a crawl when the number of files becomes unwieldy, which can quickly become the case. At its core, Org-roam provides a database abstraction layer, providing a dual representation of what’s already available in plain-text. This allows us (humans) to continue working with plain-text, while programs can utilize the database layer to perform complex queries. These capabilities include, but are not limited to: • link graph traversal and visualization • Instantaneous SQL-like queries on headlines • What are my TODOs, scheduled for X, or due by Y? • Accessing the properties of a node, such as its tags, refs, TODO state or priority All of these functionality is powered by this database abstraction layer. Hence, at its core Org-roam’s primary goal is to provide a resilient dual representation that is cheap to maintain, easy to understand, and is as up-to-date as it possibly can. Org-roam also then exposes an API to this database abstraction layer for users who would like to perform programmatic queries on their Org files.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Building Extensions and Advanced Customization of Org-roam, Prev: Org-roam's Design Principle, Up: Developer's Guide to Org-roam 19.2 Building Extensions and Advanced Customization of Org-roam =============================================================== Because Org-roam’s core functionality is small, it is possible and sometimes desirable to build extensions on top of it. These extensions may one or more of the following functionalities: • Access to Org-roam’s database • Usage/modification of Org-roam’s interactive commands Org-roam provides no guarantees that extensions will continue to function as Org-roam evolves, but by following these simple rules, extensions can be made robust to local changes in Org-roam. • Extensions should not modify the database schema. Any extension that requires the caching of additional data should make a request upstream to Org-roam. • Extensions requiring access to the database should explicitly state support for the database version (‘org-roam-db-version’), and only conditionally load when support is available. * Menu: * Accessing the Database:: * Accessing and Modifying Nodes:: * Extending the Capture System::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Accessing the Database, Next: Accessing and Modifying Nodes, Up: Building Extensions and Advanced Customization of Org-roam 19.2.1 Accessing the Database ----------------------------- Access to the database is provided singularly by ‘org-roam-db-query’, for example: (org-roam-db-query [:select * :from nodes]) One can refer to the database schema by looking up ‘org-roam-db--table-schemata’. There are multiple helper functions within Org-roam that call ‘org-roam-db-query’, these are subject to change. To ensure that extensions/customizations are robust to change, extensions should only use ‘org-roam-db-query’, and perhaps replicate the SQL query if necessary.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Accessing and Modifying Nodes, Next: Extending the Capture System, Prev: Accessing the Database, Up: Building Extensions and Advanced Customization of Org-roam 19.2.2 Accessing and Modifying Nodes ------------------------------------ The node interface is cleanly defined using ‘cl-defstruct’. The primary method to access nodes is ‘org-roam-node-at-point’ and ‘org-roam-node-read’: -- Function: org-roam-node-at-point &optional assert Return the node at point. If ASSERT, throw an error if there is no node at point. -- Function: org-roam-node-read &optional initial-input filter-fn sort-fn require-match Read and return an ‘org-roam-node’. INITIAL-INPUT is the initial minibuffer prompt value. FILTER-FN is a function to filter out nodes: it takes a single argument (an ‘org-roam-node’), and when nil is returned the node will be filtered out. SORT-FN is a function to sort nodes. See ‘org-roam-node-read-sort-by-file-mtime’ for an example sort function. If REQUIRE-MATCH, the minibuffer prompt will require a match. Once you obtain the node, you can use the accessors for the node, e.g. ‘org-roam-node-id’ or ‘org-roam-node-todo’. It is possible to define (or override existing) properties on nodes. This is simply done using a ‘cl-defmethod’ on the ‘org-roam-node’ struct: (cl-defmethod org-roam-node-namespace ((node org-roam-node)) "Return the namespace for NODE. The namespace is the final directory of the file for the node." (file-name-nondirectory (directory-file-name (file-name-directory (org-roam-node-file node))))) The snippet above defines a new property ‘namespace’ on ‘org-roam-node’, which making it available for use in capture templates.  File: org-roam.info, Node: Extending the Capture System, Prev: Accessing and Modifying Nodes, Up: Building Extensions and Advanced Customization of Org-roam 19.2.3 Extending the Capture System ----------------------------------- Org-roam applies some patching over Org’s capture system to smooth out the user experience, and sometimes it is desirable to use Org-roam’s capturing system instead. The exposed function to be used in extensions is ‘org-roam-capture-’: -- Function: org-roam-capture- &key goto keys node info props templates Main entry point. GOTO and KEYS correspond to ‘org-capture’ arguments. INFO is a plist for filling up Org-roam’s capture templates. NODE is an ‘org-roam-node’ construct containing information about the node. PROPS is a plist containing additional Org-roam properties for each template. TEMPLATES is a list of org-roam templates. An example of an extension using ‘org-roam-capture-’ is ‘org-roam-dailies’ itself: (defun org-roam-dailies--capture (time &optional goto) "Capture an entry in a daily-note for TIME, creating it if necessary. When GOTO is non-nil, go the note without creating an entry." (org-roam-capture- :goto (when goto '(4)) :node (org-roam-node-create) :templates org-roam-dailies-capture-templates :props (list :override-default-time time)) (when goto (run-hooks 'org-roam-dailies-find-file-hook)))  File: org-roam.info, Node: Appendix, Next: Keystroke Index, Prev: Developer's Guide to Org-roam, Up: Top 20 Appendix *********** * Menu: * Note-taking Workflows:: * Ecosystem::  File: org-roam.info, Node: Note-taking Workflows, Next: Ecosystem, Up: Appendix 20.1 Note-taking Workflows ========================== • Books • How To Take Smart Notes (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34507927-how-to-take-smart-notes) • Articles • The Zettelkasten Method - LessWrong 2.0 (https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/NfdHG6oHBJ8Qxc26s/the-zettelkasten-method-1) • Building a Second Brain in Roam...And Why You Might Want To : RoamResearch (https://reddit.com/r/RoamResearch/comments/eho7de/building_a_second_brain_in_roamand_why_you_might) • Roam Research: Why I Love It and How I Use It - Nat Eliason (https://www.nateliason.com/blog/roam) • Adam Keesling’s Twitter Thread (https://twitter.com/adam_keesling/status/1196864424725774336?s=20) • How To Take Smart Notes With Org-mode · Jethro Kuan (https://blog.jethro.dev/posts/how_to_take_smart_notes_org/) • Threads • Ask HN: How to Take Good Notes (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22473209) • Videos • How to Use Roam to Outline a New Article in Under 20 Minutes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvWic15iXjk)  File: org-roam.info, Node: Ecosystem, Prev: Note-taking Workflows, Up: Appendix 20.2 Ecosystem ==============  File: org-roam.info, Node: Keystroke Index, Next: Command Index, Prev: Appendix, Up: Top Appendix A Keystroke Index **************************  File: org-roam.info, Node: Command Index, Next: Function Index, Prev: Keystroke Index, Up: Top Appendix B Command Index ************************  File: org-roam.info, Node: Function Index, Next: Variable Index, Prev: Command Index, Up: Top Appendix C Function Index ************************* [index] * Menu: * org-roam-alias-add: Titles and Aliases.
