runner.nvim

A custom task runner, enhanced with Telescope for nice UI.

Note that this is more of a custom plugin for myself and I won't really offer a lot of support for this at the moment Feel free to fork, or send PR for more language.

Why ?

Why would not I use cmake-tools or Overseer ? Overseer offer a complex api to create template, I mean it's just easier to create your own plugin at this point (+ its kinda ugly), and I don't like cmake-tools as it don't integrate with other running tools, so you need some sketchy command to run cmake-tools, or something else if you work with anything else than CMake

Installation & Dependencies

This project require nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim for the UI prompts, and nvim-lua/plenary.nvim for utility (which is also a Telescope dependencie anyway). You'll also need akinsho/toggleterm.nvim, it's the plugin I use for managing my terminal, so naturally runner.nvim plug nicely into it.

Using lazy.nvim :

{
  'Carbone13/runner.nvim',
  dependencies = {
    'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim',
    'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'
    'akinsho/toggleterm.nvim'
  }
}
