Features

  • Configurable Lua functions to go forward/backward to a certain target. Each function can be customized with:

    • Direction. One of "forward", "backward", "first" (forward starting from first one), "last" (backward starting from last one).
    • Number of times to go.
    • Whether to wrap on edges (going forward on last one goes to first).
    • Some other target specific options.
  • Mappings using square brackets. They are created using configurable target suffix and can be selectively disabled.

    Each mapping supports |[count]|. Mappings are created in Normal mode; for targets which move cursor in current buffer also Visual and Operator-pending (with dot-repeat) modes are supported.

    Using lower-suffix and upper-suffix (lower and upper case suffix) for a single target the following mappings are created:

    • [ + upper-suffix : go first.
    • [ + lower-suffix : go backward.
    • ] + lower-suffix : go forward.
    • ] + upper-suffix : go last.
  • Supported targets (for more information see help for corresponding Lua function):

    Target Mappings Lua function
    Buffer [B [b ]b ]B MiniBracketed.buffer()
    Comment block [C [c ]c ]C MiniBracketed.comment()
    Conflict marker [X [x ]x ]X MiniBracketed.conflict()
    Diagnostic [D [d ]d ]D MiniBracketed.diagnostic()
    File on disk [F [f ]f ]F MiniBracketed.file()
    Indent change [I [i ]i ]I MiniBracketed.indent()
    Jump from jumplist inside current buffer [J [j ]j ]J MiniBracketed.jump()
    Location from location list [L [l ]l ]L MiniBracketed.location()
    Old files [O [o ]o ]O MiniBracketed.oldfile()
    Quickfix entry from quickfix list [Q [q ]q ]Q MiniBracketed.quickfix()
    Tree-sitter node and parents [T [t ]t ]T MiniBracketed.treesitter()
    Undo states from specially tracked linear history [U [u ]u ]U MiniBracketed.undo()
    Window in current tab [W [w ]w ]W MiniBracketed.window()
    Yank selection replacing latest put region [Y [y ]y ]Y MiniBracketed.yank()

Notes:

  • The undo target remaps u and <C-R> keys to register undo state after undo and redo respectively. If this conflicts with your setup, either disable undo target or make your remaps after calling MiniBracketed.setup(). To use undo target, remap your undo/redo keys to call MiniBracketed.register_undo_state() after the action.

Installation

This plugin can be installed as part of 'mini.nvim' library (recommended) or as a standalone Git repository.

There are two branches to install from:

  • main (default, recommended) will have latest development version of plugin. All changes since last stable release should be perceived as being in beta testing phase (meaning they already passed alpha-testing and are moderately settled).
  • stable will be updated only upon releases with code tested during public beta-testing phase in main branch.

Here are code snippets for some common installation methods (use only one):

With mini.deps
Github repo Branch Code snippet
'mini.nvim' library Main Follow recommended 'mini.deps' installation
Stable
Standalone plugin Main add('echasnovski/mini.bracketed')
Stable add({ source = 'echasnovski/mini.bracketed', checkout = 'stable' })
With folke/lazy.nvim
Github repo Branch Code snippet
'mini.nvim' library Main { 'echasnovski/mini.nvim', version = false },
Stable { 'echasnovski/mini.nvim', version = '*' },
Standalone plugin Main { 'echasnovski/mini.bracketed', version = false },
Stable { 'echasnovski/mini.bracketed', version = '*' },
With junegunn/vim-plug
Github repo Branch Code snippet
'mini.nvim' library Main Plug 'echasnovski/mini.nvim'
Stable Plug 'echasnovski/mini.nvim', { 'branch': 'stable' }
Standalone plugin Main Plug 'echasnovski/mini.bracketed'
Stable Plug 'echasnovski/mini.bracketed', { 'branch': 'stable' }

Important: don't forget to call require('mini.bracketed').setup() to enable its functionality.

Note: if you are on Windows, there might be problems with too long file paths (like error: unable to create file <some file name>: Filename too long). Try doing one of the following:

  • Enable corresponding git global config value: git config --system core.longpaths true. Then try to reinstall.
  • Install plugin in other place with shorter path.

Default config

-- No need to copy this inside `setup()`. Will be used automatically.
{
  -- First-level elements are tables describing behavior of a target:
  --
  -- - <suffix> - single character suffix. Used after `[` / `]` in mappings.
  --   For example, with `b` creates `[B`, `[b`, `]b`, `]B` mappings.
  --   Supply empty string `''` to not create mappings.
  --
  -- - <options> - table overriding target options.
  --
  -- See `:h MiniBracketed.config` for more info.

  buffer     = { suffix = 'b', options = {} },
  comment    = { suffix = 'c', options = {} },
  conflict   = { suffix = 'x', options = {} },
  diagnostic = { suffix = 'd', options = {} },
