Foam Settings

• [[pull]] [[agora settings]]
• The following are my [[foam]] ([[vscode]]) settings as of [[2021-02-26]]. In a nutshell:
  • Some changes to [[settings.json]] in your digital garden’s .vscode directory so that journal entries (what you get when you press alt-d; a daily diary) end up in the directory journal/; but that’s your choice. I usually default to my diary as a [[home base]] and create notes by linking them there, and ctrl-clicking to create (or visit if they already exist).
  • Some changes to [[keybindings.json]] in your global (user scope) .config/Code/User/ directory so that you can use shortcuts such as ctrl-alt-s (save all changes locally) and “`ctrl-shift-a) (push changes to the [[agora]]).
  • Optional additional [[git config]] to make submitting to your git hosted digital garden (and transitively to the [[agora]]) easier/less work.
    • In particular, a [[commit template]] so that you don’t need to write a change description every time you want to push to the [[agora]].
• [[push]] [[settings.json]]: .vscode/settings in your garden

     {
         "key": "ctrl+shift+a",
         "command": "git.commitAll"
     },

         "key": "ctrl+alt+v",
         "command": "toggleVim"

     {
         "key": "ctrl+shift+s",
         "command": "workbench.action.files.saveFiles"
     }
]

• This results in being able to press ctrl-shift-s to save all files; and ctrl-shift-a to push changes to the [[agora]] without the need to write a commit message.
