    dependencies = { "MunifTanjim/nui.nvim" },
    opts = {
      debug = true,
    },
    cmd = { "QuickCodeRunner", "QuickCodePad" },
    keys = {
      {
        "<leader>cr",
        ":QuickCodeRunner<CR>",
        desc = "Quick Code Runner",
        mode = "v",

        "<leader>cp",
        ":QuickCodePad<CR>",
        desc = "Quick Code Pad",
      },
    },
  }

Configuration

Customize the plugin by modifying the default configuration. Example:

--- Default configuration for quick-code-runner.nvim
local default_config = {
  debug = false, -- Print debug information
  file_types = {
    javascript = { 'bun run' }, -- Run command for javascript, you can change to `node` or `deno`
    typescript = { 'bun run' }, -- Run command for typescript, you can change to `npx tsx run` or `deno`
    python = {
      'python3 -u', -- Run command for python
    },
    go = {
      "go run",
    },
  },
}

Usage

• QuickCodePad: A tool for writing code snippets in a floating window.
• QuickCodeRunner: Run selected code snippets using <leader>cr.

QuickCodePad

The QuickCodePad is a tool designed for writing and running code snippets swiftly. It opens a floating window, providing a convenient environment for coding and testing.

After closing the floating window, run :QuickCodeRunner to execute your code.

This feature is particularly useful when you need a quick, isolated environment for writing and testing code, which you can then run the code by press Enter:

Running Selected Code

The QuickCodeRunner feature allows you to select a code snippet and run it with ease. You can invoke this feature using the keyboard shortcut <leader>cr.

Note

The global code block is always executed first, followed by the selected code.

Limitations

Currently optimized for JavaScript, TypeScript, Go, and Python. May work with other languages, but full compatibility is not guaranteed.
