About The Project

theme.mp4

wf.nvim is a new which-key like plugin for Neovim.

✨ Features

  • Built-in fuzzy-finder
  • Does not provide a default global keymap
  • Using nvim_set_keymap's "desc" feature (see :help nvim_set_keymap)
  • for Neovim 0.7 and higher, it uses the desc as key description
  • Skip duplicate characters (skip_front_duplication, skip_back_duplication)
  • Builtin pickers:
    • which-key: displays key mappings to invoke
    • mark: displays marks to move
    • bookmark: displays file paths to open
    • buffer: displays buffers to focus
    • register: displays the contents of registers

The difference with which-key.nvim

The display of wf.nvim is displayed in a row at the bottom right like helix. Instead of displaying multiple columns at the bottom like spacemacs style. This has improved the display speed of multibyte characters in particular.

Pros

  • The layout does not collapse even if multibyte characters are included.
  • You can use the builtin fuzzy finder to find forgotten shortcuts.
  • Three themes(default, space, chad) are offered.
  • Fits any color scheme.
    • The colors change to match the color scheme.
  • Stress-free selection even when long letters are available as options.
    • See skip_front_duplication and skip_back_duplication at the document.
  • Modal selection is made possible by adopting an event-driven architecture instead of waiting for a key with a while loop.

Cons

  • Slower processing speed for larger number of runtime process

Getting started

Neovim >= 0.9.0 and nvim-web-devicons is recommended for enjoying all the features of wf.nvim.

Minimal Setup
local which_key = require("wf.builtin.which_key")
local register = require("wf.builtin.register")
local bookmark = require("wf.builtin.bookmark")
local buffer = require("wf.builtin.buffer")
local mark = require("wf.builtin.mark")

-- Register
vim.keymap.set(
  "n",
  "<Space>wr",
  -- register(opts?: table) -> function
  -- opts?: option
  register(),
  { noremap = true, silent = true, desc = "[wf.nvim] register" }
)

-- Bookmark
vim.keymap.set(
  "n",
  "<Space>wbo",
  -- bookmark(bookmark_dirs: table, opts?: table) -> function
  -- bookmark_dirs: directory or file paths
  -- opts?: option
  bookmark({
    nvim = "~/.config/nvim",
    zsh = "~/.zshrc",
  }),
  { noremap = true, silent = true, desc = "[wf.nvim] bookmark" }
)

-- Buffer
vim.keymap.set(
  "n",
  "<Space>wbu",
  -- buffer(opts?: table) -> function
  -- opts?: option
  buffer(),
  {noremap = true, silent = true, desc = "[wf.nvim] buffer"}
)

-- Mark
vim.keymap.set(
  "n",
  "'",
  -- mark(opts?: table) -> function
  -- opts?: option
  mark(),
  { nowait = true, noremap = true, silent = true, desc = "[wf.nvim] mark"}
)

-- Which Key
vim.keymap.set(
  "n",
  "<Leader>",
   -- mark(opts?: table) -> function
   -- opts?: option
  which_key({ text_insert_in_advance = "<Leader>" }),
  { noremap = true, silent = true, desc = "[wf.nvim] which-key /", }
)

If you are concerned about the lag between pressing the shortcut that activates which-key and the actual activation of which-key, you can put the nowait option in the keymap. (Not recommended.)

However, in order for the key to be invoked nowait, the shortcut to invoke which-key must be at the end of the init.lua file. Below is an example of using timeout to delay the registration of the shortcut that activates which-key.

-- set keymaps with `nowait`
-- see `:h :map-nowait`

-- a timer to call a callback after a specified number of milliseconds.
local function timeout(ms, callback)
  local uv = vim.loop
  local timer = uv.new_timer()
  local _callback = vim.schedule_wrap(function()
    uv.timer_stop(timer)
    uv.close(timer)
    callback()
  end)
  uv.timer_start(timer, ms, 0, _callback)
end
timeout(100, function()
  vim.keymap.set(
    "n",
    "<Leader>",
    which_key({ text_insert_in_advance = "<Leader>" }),
    { noremap = true, silent = true, desc = "[wf.nvim] which-key /", }
  )
end)
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd({"BufEnter", "BufAdd"}, {
  group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup("my_wf", { clear = true }),
  callback = function()
    timeout(100, function()
      vim.keymap.set(
        "n",
        "<Leader>",
        which_key({ text_insert_in_advance = "<Leader>" }),
        { noremap = true, silent = true, desc = "[wf.nvim] which-key /", buffer = true })
    end)
  end
})

Configuration

require("wf").setup({
  theme = "default",
    -- you can copy the full list from lua/wf/setup/init.lua
})

Key Bindings Assignments

The default key assignments are shown in the table below.

Mode Key Action
Normal, Insert <c-t> Toggle the which-key with the fuzzy-find
Normal <esc> Close wf.nvim
Normal <c-c> Close wf.nvim

How to use as a picker

The core concept of wf.nvim is to extend the functionality of which-key so that it can be used as a picker rather than just a shortcut completion.

To realize this concept, wf.nvim can be used as a picker to select an item from arbitrary items like vim.ui.select({items}, {opts}, {on_choice}), i.e. wf.select({items}, {opts}, {on_choice}).

Example:

require("wf").select({happy = "😊", sad = "😥"}, {
        title = "Select your feelings:", behavior = {
            skip_front_duplication = true,
            skip_back_duplication = true,
        },
    }, function(text, key)
        -- You feel happy😊.
        vim.notify("You feel " .. key .. text .. ".")
    end)
end

Tips

Holding specific key pattern on which_key

Below is an example of using keys_group_dict. keys_group_dict is a list of prefix patterns. Keys with that pattern can be grouped together when displayed.

-- setup table for prefixes
---------------------------------------
if _G.__key_prefixes == nil then
  _G.__key_prefixes = {
    n = {},
    i = {},
  }
end


-- utility function for setting keymaps
---------------------------------------
local function nmaps(prefix, group, tbl)
  local sign = "[" .. group .. "] "
  table.insert(_G.__key_prefixes["n"], prefix, sign)
  local set = function(key, cmd, desc, opt)
    local _opt = opt or {}
    _opt["desc"] = sign .. desc
    _opt["noremap"] = true
    vim.keymap.set("n", prefix .. key, cmd, _opt)
  end
  for _, v in ipairs(tbl)  do
    set(unpack(v))
  end
end


-- set keymap for each plugins
---------------------------------------
-- lambdalisue/fern.vim
nmaps("<space>n", "fern",
{{"p", "<cmd>Fern . -drawer -toggle<cr>", "open fern on a current working directory"},
 {"d", "<cmd>Fern %:h -drawer -toggle<cr>", "open fern on a parent directory of a current buffer"}})

-- nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim
nmaps("<space>t", "telescope"
{{"f", "<cmd>Telescope find_files<cr>", "find files"},
 {"g", "<cmd>Telescope live_grep<cr>", "live grep"},
 {"b", "<cmd>Telescope buffers<cr>", "buffers"},
 {"h", "<cmd>Telescope help_tags<cr>", "help tags"},
 {"t", "<cmd>Telescope<cr>", "telescope"},
 {"o", "<cmd>Telescope oldfiles<cr>", "old files"},
 {"r", "<cmd>Telescope file_browser<cr>", "file_browser"}})


-- set keymap for calling which-key
---------------------------------------
vim.set.keymap("n", "<Space>",
which_key({text_insert_in_advance="<space>", key_group_dict=_G.__key_prefixes["n"]}),
{noremap = true, silent = tre, desc = "which-key space", nowait = true})
