vim插件leaderf

发表于 更新于

2023年10月27日星期五晴北京市北京师范大学, 为了与nvim匹配等价的功能，今天为vim安装了模糊查找插件，经过对比从fzf, ctrp和leaderf中选择了最现代的leaderf, 其原因为fzf依赖于命令fzf不够纯净，ctrp使用viml编写，速度太慢，而leaderf使用python编写，速度快功能强大，配置方便。于是将其README.md贴于此处，为了方便直接使用官方给出的配置不做调整，效率更高。

LeaderF

An efficient fuzzy finder that helps to locate files, buffers, mrus, gtags, etc. on the fly.

  • Written in Python.
  • Support fuzzy and regex searching.
  • Full-featured.
  • Well-designed fuzzy matching algorithm.
  • Extensible.

Changelog

Please see the CHANGELOG for a release history.

Popup Mode
And Mode

Requirements

  • vim7.3 or higher. Only support 7.4.1126+ after v1.01.
  • Python2.7+ or Python3.1+.
  • To use the popup mode, neovim 0.5.0+ or vim 8.1.1615+ are required.

Installation

For vim-plug user:

1
Plug 'Yggdroot/LeaderF', { 'do': ':LeaderfInstallCExtension' }

Performance

LeaderF is already very fast. If you'd like better performance, install the C extension of the fuzzy matching algorithm, which is more than 10 times faster.
To install the C extension, firstly, make sure python2 and/or python3 commands are available on Linux/Unix/MacOS and py -2 and/or py -3 commands are available on Windows.

  • Install the C extension 

    1
    :LeaderfInstallCExtension
    There may be some errors during the installation, please google the error messages to resolve it.
    For example, "error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat", you can turn to here for help.

  • Uninstall the C extension 

    1
    :LeaderfUninstallCExtension

After running any command of LeaderF, check the value of echo g:Lf_fuzzyEngine_C, if the value is 1, it means the C extension is loaded sucessfully.

Input formats:

  • In NameOnly mode (fuzzy mode)

    If the first character you input is ';', then the searching will be the same as in FullPath mode.
    If you input string as 'abc;def', then 'abc' will match the file name and 'def' will match the directory name.

  • In FullPath mode (fuzzy mode)

    Same as in NameOnly mode except that the pattern will match the full path but not the file name only.

  • In Regexp mode

    The input string is the same as the Vim's regexp.

Smart Case:

  • If the characters in search pattern are all lowercase, the matching is case-insensitive. If the search pattern contains uppercase characters, all lowercase characters still are matched case-insensitively, the uppercase characters can only match upper case. So uppercase characters can speed up the narrowing down of the searching result.

    e.g., input abcDef，it can match the following strings: 

    1
    2
    3
    4
    abcDef
    AbcDef
    abcDEf
    aBcDeF
    but can not match the strings such as: 
    1
    2
    abcdef
    Abcdef
    Note: abc and ef are still case-insensitive.

And operator:

  • In fuzzy mode, using ' '(space) as the and operator, the candidate lines should fuzzily match all the substrings separated by space.

    e.g., input abc def gh，it can match the following strings: 

    1
    2
    3
    4
    ...a.b.c...d.e.f...g.h...
    ...a.b.c...g.h...d.e.f...
    ...a.d..e.g.b.c...h..f...
    ...gh...def...abc...

Popup Mode is to open LeaderF in a popup window(vim 8.1.1615+) or floating window(nvim 0.4.2+).

To enable popup mode:

1

let g:Lf_WindowPosition = 'popup'
```  
or add `--popup` after each subcommand, e.g.,
Leaderf file --popup

Customization
-------------

 * Change key bindings

    By default, `<Up>` and `<Down>` are used to recall last/next input pattern from history. If you want to use them to navigate the result list just like `<C-K>` and `<C-J>` :

    `let g:Lf_CommandMap = {'<C-K>': ['<Up>'], '<C-J>': ['<Down>']}`

    for more detail, please refer to `:h g:Lf_CommandMap`.

 * Change the colors used in LeaderF

    ```vim
    let g:Lf_PopupPalette = {
        \  'light': {
        \      'Lf_hl_match': {
        \                'gui': 'NONE',
        \                'font': 'NONE',
        \                'guifg': 'NONE',
        \                'guibg': '#303136',
        \                'cterm': 'NONE',
        \                'ctermfg': 'NONE',
        \                'ctermbg': '236'
        \              },
        \      'Lf_hl_cursorline': {
        \                'gui': 'NONE',
        \                'font': 'NONE',
        \                'guifg': 'NONE',
        \                'guibg': '#303136',
        \                'cterm': 'NONE',
        \                'ctermfg': 'NONE',
        \                'ctermbg': '236'
        \              },
        \      },
        \  'dark': {
        \         ...
        \         ...
        \      }
        \  }
All the highlight groups supported are defined in LeaderF/autoload/leaderf/colorscheme/popup/default.vim.

  • Change the default mapping of searching files command

    e.g. let g:Lf_ShortcutF = '<C-P>'

  • Show icons (should install fonts from https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts)

    Support commands: buffer,file,mru,window

    1
    2
    3
    4
    5
    6
    " Show icons, icons are shown by default
    let g:Lf_ShowDevIcons = 1
    " For GUI vim, the icon font can be specify like this, for example
    let g:Lf_DevIconsFont = "DroidSansM Nerd Font Mono"
    " If needs
    set ambiwidth=double
