just.nvim

A just command runner plugin for neovim.

Prerequisites

Install the just command runner

Arch Linux

sudo pacman -S just

MacOS

brew install just

Getting started

Packer

use("BeatScherrer/just.nvim")

set up the plugin:

require("just").setup()

Telescope extension

This plugin comes with a telescope extension. This allows to pick the recipe in a telescope picker and run them directly.

Register the extension in telescope:

require("telescope").load_extension("just")

Run recipes

To run a recipe the user command Just is available that wraps the actual command and handles output.

Example:

:Just some-task

If an error occurrs in the passed recipe the quickfix is automatically opened.

TODO:

• Add config to not open the quickfix on error
• Add config to jump to first error on failure
• Add quickfix error parsing support
• Improve the error messages in the just project
• Come up with a strategy to handle multiple arguments when using the telescope extension
• Dispatched processes cannot be cancelled...
• Where should just recipe output go? quickfix list is not ideal since multiple just recipes should run in parallel, especially long running processes.
