[Feature request] I want a method that is called when redrawing

[nabezokodaikon]

The "getLength" method is called every time a directory is opened, and the "getText" method is called every time an item is drawn, but I would like a method to be run on first display and on "redraw".

The reason is that I created a plugin that displays the Git status in a "column", but since the "git status" command is executed within the "getLength" method, the process becomes redundant.

If you really need the feature, the length should be cached in your column.

The "getLength" method is called every time a directory is opened, and the "getText" method is called every time an item is drawn, but I would like a method to be run on first display and on "redraw".

getLength() depends all items and all items are recreated when you have opened/closed directories.

In ddu-column-gitstatus, git information is held in the Column class, but is it different from that?

[Shougo]

I have implemented the feature.
Please use getBaseText().
