Create key bindings config and keymap plug-ins about harlequin HOT 13 CLOSED

This has been shipped in v1.22.0

Vim motions present a suite of challenges that will have to be tackled later; for now, though, you can customize bindings to any single key press. See the new docs: https://harlequin.sh/docs/keymaps/index

@s1nistr4 I'm pretty annoyed by your tone, but yeah, I'm working on this. Well, actually right now I'm visiting family in the hospital but maybe after that I'll get back to working on this.

This sounds absolutely awesome. Seriously. Just wanted to say that before i click on the "Sponsor" button. :)

I just discovered this (through Terminal Trove) and this is the only feature that I find missing. I keep battling between using vim motions and default shell shortcuts to navigate between words in the query panel, but none work exactly as I would expect. Having a way to customize the keybindings to navigate between panels and other actions would be a killer feature.

Priorities! Hope everything is ok. You've already done such an incredible favor to the community. Thank you.

@cs2018ncsa Thank you so much for your support!

Super exciting stuff, can't wait to try out vim bindings, even in a limited form.

Harlequin will have essentially no bindings without the default map (maybe just ctrl+q), and then will merge and load keymaps at start-up.

What about the key combinations at the bottom of Harlequin like CTRL+J, CTRL+S, etc.?

I'm guessing the answer is yes, but will Mac-specific keys be supported?

from harlequin.

Yes, this includes all of those, like ctrl+j.

You should be able to use any key combo that works for your terminal and gets forwarded to Harlequin... sometimes the virtual key names change a bit, but I think most terminals map cmd to ctrl, etc.

So very much looking forward to this, I am an HHKB user on macOS with iterm2/alacritty/vscode-terminal/nvim-terminal.

ctrl-j was mapped to "down" for me so for now ctrl-enter is my hope but I tested with textual keys, and ctrl-enter was now enter in all above tty envs.

If this one feature was implemented this would replace every GUI/based database editor, vim-dadbod, and lazysql overnight.

This should be the single biggest priority of this project imo. Mainly because the default keybindings aren't that good. Like F2, F5 and F6 to switch windows...what? Imagine navigating with vim keybindings like hjkl and writing custom keymaps for queries and stuff. This app is really good so far and soooo close to finally being the way to interact with sql databases via the terminal which is like 30 years overdue.

It wasn't meant to be rude, I'm just saying you can monopolize the industry you're in overnight if this was implemented. If anything it's to help you and your project succeed. Harlequin is so far the best TUI SQL client I've used out of the many I've tried.
