es-mode is an Emacs major mode for editing and executing Elasticsearch queries. It provides syntax highlighting, indentation, and keybindings for interacting with Elasticsearch clusters directly from Emacs buffers. The package includes features such as executing requests with C-c C-c, navigating between requests, copying requests as curl commands, an Elasticsearch Command Center for cluster monitoring, org-babel support for embedding queries in org-mode documents, and an interactive ESQL mode for Elasticsearch's ES|QL language. The architecture follows standard Emacs package conventions with several modular components: es-mode.el provides the core editing functionality, es-cc.el implements a monitoring dashboard, es-copyas.el handles request copying, es-esql.el offers an interactive ESQL interface, and ob-elasticsearch.el enables org-babel integration. The mode communicates with Elasticsearch using HTTP requests via the request library, displaying results in separate buffers with syntax highlighting and optional jq processing. Key strengths include thoughtful integration with Emacs workflows (company-mode completion, proper indentation, hook systems), robust error handling for network requests, and useful features like variable substitution in org-babel blocks and historical metric visualization in the command center. The code demonstrates solid Emacs Lisp craftsmanship with appropriate use of buffers, hooks, and asynchronous operations.
Tabspaces is an Emacs Lisp package that creates buffer-isolated workspaces using Emacs' built-in tab-bar and project.el packages. It allows users to maintain separate buffer lists for each tab, effectively creating isolated workspaces that integrate with version-controlled projects. The package provides session saving/restoring capabilities, echo area display options, and integrates with popular Emacs buffer management frameworks like consult, ivy, and ibuffer. While the GitHub repository is marked as a read-only archived mirror (with development moved to Codeberg), the code demonstrates strong Emacs Lisp craftsmanship, particularly in its sophisticated session management system with extensible buffer kind registration and robust workspace isolation mechanisms.
