company-org-roam configuration + articles.org?

[Ziip-dev]

Hello,

Thanks a lot for this guide, I need to clarify two things though as I struggle to understand all the mechanics of your config:

• I went through your entire config files but I found no clue of where you set up company-org-roam backend as you describe in your reddit post. For what I understand, but I might be wrong, this needs to be explicitly configured to become active when entering org-roam-mode.
• secondly, you set up this file "~/Dropbox/Org/references/articles.org" as org-ref-bibliography-notes and bibtex-completion-notes-path. Does it have any reason to exist as you use a references/notes/ directory to store everything with org-roam?

Hey @Ziip-dev

1) I did not need to configure company-org-roam to have it work. I can investigate this weekend. 2) That file doesn't need to exist, its an artifact from when I was not using org-roam. Thanks for bringing it up, I will clean it up.

Thank you for the details :) Please can you keep me updated if you find out how company-org-roam automatically gets activated? It never is in my case when I enter a roam buffer

@Ziip-dev after investigation, I found that company-mode needs to be activated for company-org-roam to work. I have company enabled in my init.el under :completion. So everytime I start emacs, company is already started and therefore company-org-roam works.

Hope this answers your question.
