matlab-emacs-discuss — Discuss Emacs/MATLAB integration

Re: [Matlab-emacs-discuss] Matlab-emacs-discuss Digest, Vol 115, Issue 5

[Vasco C. <vc...@gm...>]

I don't know how to contribute to this email discussions. So I'm not sure
if replying to this email is the correct way.

In response to latest "digest", regarding Github, I find that exchanging
views in Github "issues" is very straightforward and clean, while the
mailing lists are very cumbersome to process with too much copied content,
and hard to navigate.
I do not know if Gitlab is better than Github, but Github is way more
effective to exchange views on issues than the email exchange/digests.

Yes I can, but mainly because during installation Matlab asks me to set
a symbolic link to /usr/local/bin

So that is why 
which matlab 

Return
/usr/local/bin/matlab

Of course, I am using the matlab-shell very often, but from a matlab
file (.m)

What I want to do is, to calculate 

    1. Matlab commands from an org buffer

    2. And insert the result in that buffer.

So it is in mine.

Again, I use the matlab-shell very often but from .m files.

I think I will start emacs -Q and load you configuration+minimal matlab conf
and see what happens.

I find in strange that in our case fprintf does not work.
It works for me in the matlab-shell and using my (complicated) python
engine solution

Well...

1. After installing matlab-support you should be able to Matlab from 
bash by typing the command

 >> matlab

Can you do that?

    a) if yes

        Can you evoke matlab-shell in Emacs? (M-x matlab-shell)

        Again, you should be able to do that after installing matlab-mode.

    b) if no:

        check what are the values of the variables: 
`matlab-shell-command` and `matlab-shell-command-switches`

        In my case they are equal: `matlab` and ("-nodesktop"), 
respectively, which is by default set in `matlab-shell.el` which is a 
part of matlab-mode package.

       Maybe you need to set them explicitely like here:

      https://swang251.github.io/2021/12/03/Matlab-in-Emacs/

      ???

Hi

Some comments, since it did not work as expected.

done.


Now I executed 

#+begin_src matlab 
x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
fprintf('|%d', x)
#+end_src

And obtained in a different window:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

NameErrorTraceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-3-e039b5096438> in <module>
      1 x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
----> 2 fprintf('|%d', x)

NameError: name 'fprintf' is not defined

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So 

    1. the result is not inserted in my org buffer,

    2. Morever fprintf is not defined, let me suspect this is not matlab
       what is excecuted but octave. Am I right?

What do I miss here?

Your approach is indeed cumbersome.

In mine we need to:

1. Install `matlab-support` - a  debian package that enables matlab 
integration within the system:

sudo apt install matlab-support


2. In Emacs: install `matlab-mode` package

3. Download

https://github.com/karthink/.emacs.d/blob/master/plugins/ob-octave-fix.el

and put it somewhere  in Emacs search path.

4. My init.el content with matlab/org-babel configurations:

;; 
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;; enabling org-babel
(org-babel-do-load-languages
  'org-babel-load-languages '(
                  (C . t) ; enable processing C, C++, and D source blocks
                  (matlab . t)
                  ;;(perl . t)
                  (octave . t)
                  (org . t)
                  (python . t)
                              (plantuml . t)
                  (shell . t)
                   ))

;; setup matlab in babel
(setq org-babel-default-header-args:matlab
   '((:results . "output") (:session . "*MATLAB*")))

;; octave/matlab-fix
;;;; (require 'ob-octave-fix nil t)    ; This is for older approach
(require 'ob-octave-fix)

;; 
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;


I do remember that this 'ob-octave-fix' is very important. Otherwise 
there are some problems...

This works with Emacs 29.1 and currently Matlab 2023b.

The code you provided returned nothing in my case and in order to obtain 
the same result I needed to tailor it a bit (Should there really be a 
call to 'fprintf'?):

#+begin_src matlab :results output latex :exports results  :eval 
never-export :wrap latex
   x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] ;
   disp(sprintf('|%d', x))
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
#+begin_latex
|1|2|3|4|5
#+end_latex

Thanks I will study this later. What I am most interested is 

    1. Execute matlab code in a org buffer (with the correct block around the matlab code.

    2. Insert the result directly in the org buffer.

Here in exchange is my method.

    1. The python engine shipped by mathworks (warning different matlab
       releases require different python versions, that is why I am
       stuck at the moment with R2019A, which still support python 3.5.

    2. ob-ipython 

Actually the following steps



** Python3 and matlab-kernel: HOWTO
sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools
sudo -H python3 -m pip install jupyter
sudo apt-get remove python3-pexpect
sudo -H python3 -m pip install pexpect
sudo -H python3 -m pip install matlab_kernel
** Install the python API for matlab.
MATLABROOT=/usr/local/MATLAB/R2019a
Cd $MATLABROOT/extern/engines/python
sudo -H python3 setup.py install 
** Start the engine
Run
/usr/bin/python3
in the python prompt:
import matlab.engine
eng = matlab.engine.start_matlab()
the eng command needs some time to run. 
When finished run now 
eng.quit()

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate nil)   ;don't prompt me to confirm everytime I want to evaluate a block
;;; display/update images in the buffer after I evaluate

Yes, I do use org-babel and matlab. Until now, it hasn't been flawless 
experience but I manage to get the results back.

But to be honest, I have no idea what mysterious mechanism enables me 
that. It's not been long since I've been using emacs, so there's still 
many lines in my init.el copied from here and there in a hope they will 
do...

According to my notes I followed the instructions from here:

https://gewhere.github.io/blog/2017/12/19/setup-matlab-in-emacs-and-babel-orgmode/

but nowwhen I inspect my init.el I can find only the code from the last 
section of above-mentioned page ("Setup MATLAB with babel orgmode").

Besides installing matlab-mode I have also manually downloaded:

https://github.com/karthink/.emacs.d/blob/master/plugins/ob-octave-fix.el

and included in init.el following the discussion found here:

- https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/pufgce/matlab_mode/

- 
https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/fy98bs/orgbabels_matlab_session_output_is_malformed/


... and that's all... org-babel and matlab somehow work together and I 
try not to complain much... ;)


Let me now if you are interested in details and I will send you my init.el.

Well, right the sourceforge webpage is not very, hm modern (or user friendly)

    - The problem with github is there are already many either mirrors
      or forks, so we should be sure that users find the correct
      repository. That is why John proposal to have it within the
      mathwork groups seems logic to me, but alas, as I said, I don't have
      write access there.

    - I personally prefer gitlab over github, but this is just me (I am

If so, how?

I use the python engine for this. It is convenient and fast but to start
it, is a bit cumbersome. John told me that he is working on native

Everything's ok now.
The confusion was caused by the fact that when I downloaded
yesterday the latest snapshot from your master branch
I was convinced that it included Nidish's patches
(well, he had sent them almost half a year ago! :-))
and only today I realized it hadn't been true and the patches
were still only in his fork.

I downloaded the latest version of the package from Melpa and now
I have no problems with code highlighting.

BTW. in merge requests ( 
https://sourceforge.net/p/matlab-emacs/src/merge-requests/ )
Nidish's issues are still marked as "open".

PS. I upvote the idea of migration to github. After getting used to
it, the sourceforge webpage seems a bit... well... cumbersome?

Ok I did not see that link, I don't face this problem, but I realized I

Ok. Will try this later.

BTW that reminds me to solve the GPL license issue, since we could then
have the package in ELPA not only in MELPA.

That is strange, I have a master version of emacs 29, which might
correspond to yours, but why do you mention the org version?

And now that we are in the discussion.

    1. It has been proposed to move or mirror the main development to
       github. John Ciolfi proposed  https://github.com/mathworks, but I
       don't have write access to this site, @John any news on your side.

    2. I also would like, as we agreed, rename the main branch from
       «master» to «default» because that would simplify things for me.

Regards

Uwe

Hello,
thanks for maintaining the project.
Nidish N., thank you for font-lock-reference-face fix.

There are two issues regarding this fix:
- melpa repository (https://melpa.org/#/matlab-mode) still contains 
version from July 2023. It would be nice if you could upload the most 
recent version of the package in order to have its fixed version 
available via emacs package installer for those who are less proficient
in git or sourceforge stuff.

- I still have a tiny problem with matlab-mode in Emacs 29.1 (org

in matlab source block. Syntax goes to white after I add any character 
following '='. This is how it looks like:

Yeah, I thought however to push, for a while, say some weeks to both 
github and sourceforge. So I have to setup the default README file accordingly.

Excellent idea. However, I do have write access. Can you generate a 
repository, named matlab-emacs
and make yourself, Eric and me administrators?

How about we use emacs-matlab-mode and on the main page indicate it is now the primary devel location replacing source forge, though we'll still use the source forge mailing lists, which we can list.

Let me investigate the best username to use for GitHub . I think it would be good to add the repo here: https://github.com/mathworks,

The items on my plate are to

  *   get org mode with matlab setup
  *   Reorganize the files. Done items like cedt are old and likely not used
  *   Add the matlab language server to give code navigation
  *   Investigat with flycheck / fly make vs the existing mlint

Ok. I would be especially interested in the stuff connected to org mode.
I still use the python engine to pass code from an org file to matlab.


1. I will merge (or fast forward Nidish patches tomorrow) and then
rename master-->default, if I don't receive any objections.

a. Github. I have already setup a mirror which is
gi...@gi...:matlab-mode/mirror.git however I am not sure
that this is the best name and place. As I found out there are
a bewildering number of different matlab-mode repositories on
github, some quite old with no recent commits. I have to think
what is the best strategy:

- Which name to chose

- What to write on the main page to make it clear that this
is the official repository

Suggestions are welcome

Hi all

It took me a while to understand sourceforge merge request system (I
rarely use sourceforge's web interface)


A couple of things:

    1. I just pushed to sourceforge several commits in different
       branches for testing, namely

       1. Nidish two patches (thanks Nidish), that now dwell on two
          different branches.

          a. Font-lock and

          b. shell-patch. I tested
             font-lock, but don't have right now access to another machine
             that runs matlab so I cannot test this commit. If anybody
             else, please do. I would like to merge that into master in the
             next days.

       2. The fill-fix branch. Eric committed several changes, that I
          tested but so far I have not reached to a conclusion on is the
          best solution. If anybody else wants to test that, please do.

    2. I'd like to rename the «master» branch, «default» since it
       simplifies my workflow.

    3. I also would like to create an official mirror on github, but I
       have to see how to edit the main sourceforge page to indicate
       that we will continue the development on github (I might also
       push regularly to sourceforge for a while).

Comments are welcome

However, finally, I found out at least how to access the merge request
on sourceforge, although I don't want to use their webinterface for
merging merge requests, I prefer to pull (clone), check, and then move
the commits on the main repository (and merge it there to master).

So I think I will do that with our two requests (I will then also create
two branches.). So far nobody seemed to have applied these patch(es) so
maybe this way somebody feel inclined.

However, before doing this I need to know: did you sign the FSF papers,
and would you be willing to do so.
The reason is, we want to move matlab-emacs-mode to ELPA (I have started
the process twice, only one signature is missing, which reminds me to
contact that person again).

So please tell me whether you would be willing to do so.


Another remark: An additional goal is to move or at least to mirror the
repository to github since that might attract more people that feel more
comfortable or acquainted with github (however I still would prefer to
use the mailing list as the main communication channel, the github
issues, for me are far inferior. I hope to do this still in 2023.

And last but not least, I also plan to rename the main development
branch: «master»--> «default». 

The reason has nothing to do with political issues, I am a mercurial
user who access the git repositories via the hg-git plugin. In mercurial
the main branch (which is technical a different beast than a git branch)
is always called default and having the same name in git, could somehow
simplify things for me.


Kind regards

Uwe

In case this helps, here's a quick way to check the tramp stuff if you 
have a second machine with MATLAB. I'll refer to the primary machine as 
the local machine and the secondary machine as the remote machine in the 
following.

 1. Install emacs on the remote machine. Install matlab-mode on it also
    (ensure it is the same version as on the local machine).
 2. Apply the patch on the installed matlab-mode on both the local &
    remote machines.
 3. Ensure ssh server is running on the remote machine and is
    discoverable from the local machine.
 4. Open a matlab file on the remote machine from an emacs session on
    the local machine through TRAMP.
 5. Write some matlab code on the buffer.
 6. Invoke matlab-shell from the tramp-buffer.
 7. Check if matlab-shell-run-cell works.
 8. Check, from the MATLAB REPL, which device it is running on. It
    should be running on the remote machine.

Ok thanks for checking.


Are there any other comments, @Eric, @John?

I'd prefer to wait a bit more till I push, I did not encounter any difficulties so far.
But I only checked the part concerning the fonts, not TRAMP stuff.

No no - it is indeed backward compatible. I tested it out with emacs 
28.1 also. font-lock-reference-face has been deprecated for a while now. 
And font-lock-constant-face has been around since at least emacs 20.3 
(according to documentation). So the patch is backward compatible.

It seems to me that your patch is not backward compatible, so user of
emacs <29 will run into difficulties, right?

Thanks, I had no problem applying your patch to commit b49c86e5738f.

I would like to test in the coming days, especially the font locking,
since I don't use TRAMP.

Do others, @Eric, @John have remarks to make? 

Thanks and regards

[Matlab-emacs-discuss] Fonts renamed for emacs 29.1 + Relative startup fcn path for remote accesses

[Nidish N. B. <nid...@il...>]

Hello All,

I made a couple merge requests but Uwe told me that there are apparently 
issues merging on sourceforge atm. Here are the links to the two merge 
requests, just for reference:
+ https://sourceforge.net/p/matlab-emacs/src/merge-requests/3/
+ https://sourceforge.net/p/matlab-emacs/src/merge-requests/4/

The first one was a fix for the fact that emacs 29.1 has removed 
font-lock-reference-face and we are to use font-lock-constant-face instead.

The second is a small fix I had to do to let me work with matlab-shell 
over a TRAMP session. The issue was that it was initially calling 
emacsinit.m addressed to the local machine, which matlab of course can't 
find. I just changed "/home/<user-login-name>/" to "~/" in the command 
and it reads the right emacsinit file. This still requires that 
matlab-mode and emacs be installed in the exact same location on the 
remote machine as on the local machine. It's not ideal, but it serves my 
purposes for now.

I'm sending a single patch file for both the merge requests here.

Best,
Nidish

Excellent, maybe others, for example Eric, want to make some comments as well.
