* Dynamic Org Agenda using Org Roam DB
#+BEGIN_NOTE
This whole system depends on [[id:a56794cf-b8f9-4537-a390-bd7ee6bb35ae][Vulpea]]
#+END_NOTE

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results none

#+END_SRC

First we have to exclude the =agenda= tag from inheritance.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results none
  (add-to-list 'org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance "project")
#+END_SRC

Then we need a function to check whether a buffer contains any todo entry.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results none
  (defun vulpea-project-p ()
    "Return non-nil if current buffer has any todo entry.

  TODO entries marked as done are ignored, meaning the this
  function returns nil if current buffer contains only completed
  tasks."
    (when (eq major-mode 'org-mode)
      (org-element-map
          (org-element-parse-buffer 'headline)
          'headline
        (lambda (h)
          (eq (org-element-property :todo-type h)
              'todo))
        nil 'first-match)))
#+END_SRC

Then we need a function which will check whether the current buffer contains any TODOs and if so, then add a roam tag to that file, so that we can easily get a list of all files with TODOs.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results none
    (add-hook 'find-file-hook #'vulpea-project-update-tag)
    (add-hook 'before-save-hook #'vulpea-project-update-tag)

    (defun vulpea-project-update-tag ()
      "Update PROJECT tag in the current buffer."
      (when (and (not (active-minibuffer-window))
                 (vulpea-buffer-p))
        (message "2")
        (save-excursion
          (goto-char (point-min))
          (let* ((tags (vulpea-buffer-tags-get))
                 (original-tags tags))
            (if (vulpea-project-p)
                (setq tags (cons "project" tags))
              (setq tags (remove "project" tags)))

            ;; cleanup duplicates
            (setq tags (seq-uniq tags))

            ;; update tags if changed
            (when (or (seq-difference tags original-tags)
                      (seq-difference original-tags tags))
              (apply #'vulpea-buffer-tags-set tags))))))

    (defun vulpea-buffer-p ()
      "Return non-nil if the currently visited buffer is a note."
      (and buffer-file-name
           (or (string-prefix-p
                (expand-file-name (file-name-as-directory org-roam-directory))
                (file-name-directory buffer-file-name))
               (string-prefix-p
                (expand-file-name (file-name-as-directory "~/dotfiles/emacs-lisp"))
                (file-name-directory buffer-file-name)))))
#+END_SRC

Now for the second last function, we need to actually return the list of files containing the =project= tag, to be consumed by org-agenda.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results none
  (defun vulpea-project-files ()
    "Return a list of note files containing 'project' tag." ;
    (seq-uniq
     (seq-map
      #'car
      (org-roam-db-query
       [:select [nodes:file]
        :from tags
        :left-join nodes
        :on (= tags:node-id nodes:id)
        :where (like tag (quote "%\"project\"%"))]))))
#+END_SRC

Finally we can update the list of project files before every =org-agenda= invocation.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results none
  (defun vulpea-agenda-files-update (&rest _)
    "Update the value of `org-agenda-files'."
    (setq org-agenda-files (vulpea-project-files)))

  (advice-add 'org-agenda :before #'vulpea-agenda-files-update)
#+END_SRC

** Migration

To migrate existing org-roam files to this new system, run this elisp code.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results none :tangle no
  (dolist (file (org-roam-list-files))
    (message "processing %s" file)
    (with-current-buffer (or (find-buffer-visiting file)
                             (find-file-noselect file))
      (vulpea-project-update-tag)
      (save-buffer)))
#+END_SRC

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results none :exports none
  )
#+END_SRC

* Custom Tags

Define a number of custom tags to ease organisation.

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results none
  (setq org-agenda-custom-commands
        '(("h" "Agenda and Home-related tasks"
           ((agenda "")
            (tags-todo "home")
            (tags "garden")))
          ("o" "Agenda and Office-related tasks"
           ((agenda "")
            (tags-todo "work")
            (tags "office")))
          ("i" "Agenda and School-related tasks"
           ((agenda "")
            (tags-todo "school")
            (tags "school")))))
#+END_SRC
