arkwright / vim-whiplash Goto Github PK

Thank you for the library! 🙇‍♂️

The way I organize my projects is as follows:

~/depot/org_1/project_1
~/depot/org_1/project_2
~/depot/org_2/project_1
~/depot/org_2/project_2

That means simple

let g:WhiplashProjectsDir = `~/depot`

won't work.

Is there any workaround maybe? 🤔

let g:WhiplashProjectsDir = ["~/Projetos/", "..."]

In the pre, post, and config files, consider adding some Vimscript to show common use cases for what the plugin can be used for.

I'm new to Vim and after spending a lot of time searching for a convenient way to switch projects, I somehow got here. This plugin is just perfect and I honestly don't know why nobody talks about it...
Anyway, I installed the plugin even though it wasn't tested on Windows and the default WhiplashCD command seems to work. Haven't tried any other command for the moment but this particular one is what I wanted anyway.
The reason I'm opening this issue is because I might want to use some of the other commands in the future and I assume some of them won't work. For example, I break it if I change the :Whiplash command name to something else.
Thanks and regards.

Quick edit:
I tried also the wildignore filtering and it works only with absolute paths. Is this normal?

Github issue for a TODO item mentioned in whiplash.vim at line 108

The function s:WhiplashGetProjectNamesString() uses an Apple-specific argument to the ls command to generate a list of directories for completion.

Vimscript provides built-in functions that can do this task which will lead to a more portable plugin.
