# fzf-lua
Improved fzf.vim written in lua
# fzf :heart: lua

[fzf](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf) changed my life, it can change yours too if you allow it.
### Rationale
What more can be said about [fzf](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf)? It is the
single most impactful tool for my command line workflow, once I started using
fzf I couldnt see myself living without it.
> **To understand fzf properly I highly recommended [fzf
> screencast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgG5Jhi_Els) by
> [@samoshkin](https://github.com/samoshkin)**
This is my take on the original
[fzf.vim](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim), written in lua for neovim 0.5,
it builds on the elegant
[nvim-fzf](https://github.com/vijaymarupudi/nvim-fzf) as an async interface to
create a performant and lightweight fzf client for neovim that rivals any of
the new shiny fuzzy finders for neovim.
### Why use this plug-in?
... and not, to name a few,
[telescope](https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim) or
[vim-clap](https://github.com/liuchengxu/vim-clap)?
As [@junegunn](https://github.com/junegunn) himself put it, “because you can
and you love `fzf`”.
If youre happy with your current setup there is absolutely no reason to switch.
That said, without taking anything away from the greatness of other plugins I
found it more efficient having a uniform experience between my shell and my
nvim. In addition `fzf` has been a rock for me since I started using it and
hadnt failed me once, it never hangs and can handle almost anything you throw
at it. That, **and colorful file icons and git indicators!**.
### Dependencies
- `Linux` or `MacOS` only, see [nvim-fzf's How it
works](https://github.com/vijaymarupudi/nvim-fzf#How-it-works) section
- [`fzf`](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf) binary installed
- [nvim-fzf](https://github.com/vijaymarupudi/nvim-fzf)
- [nvim-web-devicons](https://github.com/kyazdani42/nvim-web-devicons)
(optional)
### Optional dependencies (recommended)
- [fd](https://github.com/sharkdp/fd) - better performance `find` utility
- [bat](https://github.com/sharkdp/bat) - for colorful syntax highlighted previews
- [ripgrep](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep) - for better grep-like searches
### Installation
Using [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug)
```vim
Plug 'kyazdani42/nvim-web-devicons'
Plug 'ibhagwan/fzf.lua'
```
Using [packer.nvim](https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim)
```lua
use { 'ibhagwan/fzf-lua',
requires = {
'kyazdani42/nvim-web-devicons', -- optional for icons
'vijaymarupudi/nvim-fzf' }
}
```
> **Note** if you already have fzf installed you do not need to install `fzf`
> or `fzf.vim`, however if you do not have it installed, **you only need** fzf
> which can be installed with (fzf.vim is not a requirement nor conflict):
> ```vim
> Plug 'junegunn/fzf', { 'do': { -> fzf#install() } }
> ```
> or with [packer.nvim](https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim):
>```lua
>use = { 'junegunn/fzf', run = './install --bin', }
>```
## Usage
Fzf-lua aims to be as plug and play as possible with sane defaults, you can
run any fzf-lua command like this:
```lua
:lua require('fzf-lua').files()
```
or with arguments:
```lua
:lua require('fzf-lua').files({ cwd = '~/.config' })
```
which can be easily mapped to:
```vim
nnoremap <c-P> <cmd>lua require('fzf-lua').files()<CR>
```
## Commands
| Command | List |
| --- | --- |
|`buffers`|open buffers|
|`files`|`find` or `fd` on a path|
|`git_files`|`git ls-files`|
|`oldfiles`|opened files history|
|`quickfix`|quickfix list|
|`loclist`|location list|
|`grep`|search for a pattern with `grep` or `rg`|
|`grep_last`|run search again with the last pattern|
|`grep_cword`|search word under cursor|
|`grep_cWORD`|search WORD under cursor|
|`grep_visual`|search visual selection|
|`grep_curbuf`|live grep current buffer|
|`live_grep`|live grep current project|
|`help_tags`|help tags|
|`man_pages`|man pages|
|`colorschemes`|color schemes|
## Customization
I tried to make it as customizable as possible, if you find you need to change something that isnt below, open an issue and Ill do my best to add it.
customization can be achieved by calling the `setup()` function or individually sending parameters to a builtin command, for exmaple:
```lua
:lua require('fzf-lua').files({ fzf_layout = 'reverse-list' })
```
Consult the list below for available settings:
```lua
require'fzf-lua'.setup {
win_height = 0.85, -- window height
win_width = 0.80, -- window width
win_row = 0.30, -- window row position (0=top, 1=bottom)
win_col = 0.50, -- window col position (0=left, 1=right)
win_border = true, -- window border?
fzf_layout = 'reverse', -- fzf '--layout='
preview_cmd = '', -- 'head -n $FZF_PREVIEW_LINES',
preview_border = 'border', -- border|noborder
preview_wrap = 'nowrap', -- wrap|nowrap
preview_vertical = 'down:45%', -- up|down:size

},
winopts = {

window_on_create = function()
vim.cmd("set winhl=Normal:Normal")
end,
},

require('feline').reset_highlights()
end,
},
quickfix = {

-- placeholders for additional user customizations

["?"] = "?"
},
git_icon_colors = { -- override colors for git icon colors
["M"] = "yellow",
["D"] = "red",
["A"] = "green",
["?"] = "magenta"
},
fzf_binds = { -- fzf '--bind=' options
'f2:toggle-preview',
'f3:toggle-preview-wrap',
'shift-down:preview-page-down',
'shift-up:preview-page-up',
'ctrl-d:half-page-down',
'ctrl-u:half-page-up',
'ctrl-f:page-down',
'ctrl-b:page-up',
'ctrl-a:toggle-all',
'ctrl-u:clear-query',
},
window_on_create = function() -- nvim window options override
vim.cmd("set winhl=Normal:Normal") -- popup bg match normal windows
end
}
```
This can also be run from a `.vim` file using
```lua
lua << EOF
require('fzf-lua').setup{
-- ...
}
EOF
```
### Known issues
- [ ] `live_grep` has icons disabled until I find a solution for fzf's
`change:reload` event
- [ ] Tested mostly with both `rg`, `fd` and `bat` installed, there might be
issues with the default `grep`, `find` and `head` alternatives
## TODO
- [ ] Add built-in plugin documentation
- [ ] Add "hidden" options documentation
- [ ] Add FAQ
- Add more providers
+ [ ] vim commands
+ [ ] vim command history
+ [ ] vim keymaps
+ [ ] vim options
+ [ ] search terms history
+ [ ] tags
+ [ ] marks
+ [ ] registers
+ [ ] spelling suggestions
+ [ ] git commits
+ [ ] git branches
+ [ ] LSP (refs, symbols, etc)
