arrow.nvim

Arrow.nvim is a plugin made to manage quick file bookmarks using a single UI. You can just map one key and have everything you need to get started.

Installation

Lazy

return {
  "otavioschwanck/arrow.nvim",
  opts = {
    show_icons = true,
    leader_key = ';' -- Recommended to be a single key
  }
}

Packer

use { 'otavioschwanck/arrow.nvim', config = function()
  require('arrow').setup({
    show_icons = true,
    leader_key = ';' -- Recommended to be a single key
  })
end }

Usage

Just press the leader_key set on setup and follow you heart. (Is that easy)

Differences from harpoon:

• Single keymap needed
• Different UI to manage the bookmarks
• Statusline helpers
• Show only the filename (show path only when needed: same filename twice or too generic filename, like create, index, etc)
• Has colors and icons <3
• Has the delete mode to quickly delete items
• Files can be opened vertically or horizontally
• Still has the option to edit file

Advanced Setup

{
  show_icons = true,
  always_show_path = false,
  mappings = {
		edit = "e",
		delete_mode = "d",
		clear_all_items = "C",
		toggle = "s",
		open_vertical = "v",
		open_horizontal = "-",
		quit = "q",
  },
  leader_key = ";",
  after_9_keys = "zxcbnmZXVBNM,afghjklAFGHJKLwrtyuiopWRTYUIOP", -- Please, don't pin more than 9 XD,
  save_key = function()
    return vim.loop.cwd() -- we use the cwd as the context from the bookmarks.  You can change it for anything you want.
  end,
  full_path_list = { "update_stuff" } -- filenames on this list will ALWAYS show the file path too.
}

You can also map previous and next key:

vim.keymap.set("n", "H", require("arrow.persist").previous)
vim.keymap.set("n", "L", require("arrow.persist").next)
vim.keymap.set("n", "<C-s>", require("arrow.persist").toggle)

Statusline

You can use require('arrow.statusline') to access the statusline helpers:

local statusline = require('arrow.statusline')
statusline.is_on_arrow_file() -- return nil if current file is not on arrow.  Return the index if it is.
statusline.text_for_statusline() -- return the text to be shown in the statusline (the index if is on arrow or "" if not)
statusline.text_for_statusline_with_icons() -- Same, but with an bow and arrow icon ;D

Highlights

• ArrowFileIndex
• ArrowCurrentFile
• ArrowAction
• ArrowDeleteMode
