Bookmarks.nvim

  • Simple: Add, Rename and Remove bookmarks with only one command, less shortcuts more productivity.
  • Persistent: save your bookmarks into a human readable json file, which you can manipulate manually.
  • Accessible: Find your bookmark by telescope or Treeview with ease.
  • Informative: mark with a description, so you can record more information.
  • Visibility: display icon and name at the marked lines, and highlight marked lines.
  • Groups: arrange your bookmarks in groups, so keep you away from noises.
  • Portable: Easily share your bookmarks across devices or with others by modifying the project path in the JSON file.

Install and Config

  • Simple version: everything should work out of the box if you are ok with the default config.
-- with lazy.nvim
return {
  "LintaoAmons/bookmarks.nvim",
  -- tag = "v0.5.4", -- optional, pin the plugin at specific version for stability
  dependencies = {

Usage

There's two key concepts in this plugin: BookmarkList and Bookmark.

You can look into the code to find the structure of those two domain objects.

Commands

Command Description
BookmarksMark Mark current line into active BookmarkList. Rename existing bookmark under cursor. Toggle it off if the new name is an empty string
BookmarksGoto Go to bookmark at current active BookmarkList
BookmarksCommands Find and trigger a bookmark command.
BookmarksGotoRecent Go to latest visited/created Bookmark
BookmarksEditJsonFile An shortcut to edit bookmark jsonfile
BookmarksTree Display all bookmarks with tree-view, and use "cut", "paste", "create folder" to edit the tree.
BookmarksCommands(subcommands) we have right now

just because I don't know how to write Telescope extension, so I somehow do it this way.

Command Description
[List] new create a new BookmarkList and set it to active and mark current line into this BookmarkList
[List] rename rename a BookmarkList
[List] delete delete a bookmark list
[List] set active set a BookmarkList as active
[List] Browsing all lists
[Mark] mark to list bookmark current line and add it to specific bookmark list
[Mark] rename bookmark rename selected bookmark
[Mark] Browsing all marks
[Mark] Bookmarks of current project
[Mark] grep the marked files grep in all the files that contain bookmarks
[Mark] delete bookmark delete selected bookmarks

Also if you want to bind a shortcut to those commands, you can do it by writing some code....

local function call_bookmark_command()
	local commands = require("bookmarks.adapter.commands").commands
	local command
	for _, c in ipairs(commands) do
		if c.name == "[Mark] Bookmarks of current project" then -- change it to one of the command above
			command = c
		end
	end

	if command then
		command.callback()
	end
end

vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>ll", call_bookmark_command)

BookmarksTree

Check the tree section in the config to find out all the actions you can use.

Keymap

This plugin doesn't provide any default keybinding. I recommend you to have these four keybindings.

vim.keymap.set({ "n", "v" }, "mm", "<cmd>BookmarksMark<cr>", { desc = "Mark current line into active BookmarkList." })
vim.keymap.set({ "n", "v" }, "mo", "<cmd>BookmarksGoto<cr>", { desc = "Go to bookmark at current active BookmarkList" })
vim.keymap.set({ "n", "v" }, "ma", "<cmd>BookmarksCommands<cr>", { desc = "Find and trigger a bookmark command." })
vim.keymap.set({ "n", "v" }, "mg", "<cmd>BookmarksGotoRecent<cr>", { desc = "Go to latest visited/created Bookmark" })

CONTRIBUTING

Don't hesitate to ask me anything about the codebase if you want to contribute.

By telegram or 微信: CateFat

  • How to get started:
    1. plugin/bookmarks.lua the entry point of the plugin
    2. lua/bookmarks/domain where the main objects/concepts live
    3. code layers: user --> lua/bookmarks/adapter --> lua/bookmarks/api --> lua/bookmarks/repo --> json db

Some Other Neovim Stuff

TODO

V1

  • BookmarksMark's input box as a command line. Text start with ! considered as command.
    • !newlist [listname] bookmark current line into a newly created bookmark list and set the list as current active list.
  • remove parse commands, prefer BookmarkCommands instead
  • BookmarkCommands commands picker, a picker allow user to trigger any bookmark command.
  • more useful information when dealing with corrupted json db (no issues report yet)
  • telescope enhancement (use specific command instead)
  • A new command to create bookmark and put it into specific bookmark list (instead current active one)
  • Project
    • Add a project field
    • relative path. (project_path/relative_path can make the bookmarks portable, share your bookmarks to another people or your second laptop)
    • bookmarks of current project
    • Hooks: Gotobookmark can trigger function like switch project automatically
  • Grep content in files that contains bookmarks

V2

  • picker
    • refactor: extract picker module and remove unused modules
    • get bookmarks in active list --> filter --> sort --> telescope/fzflua
  • filetree-like BookmarkList and Bookmark browsing.
    • MVP thx! @shanlihou
    • action alias or rename some of the actions to make it more readable for users
    • bookmark filter
    • Add top level bookmark list
    • sort/modify by bookmark.order field
    • floating preview window
    • better default bookmark render format(string format, then better UI)
    • u undo. Expecially for unexpected d delete
  • Recent files as bookmarks: record all the buffer the user recently opened and sort by the visited_at
    • just use smart-open.nvim
  • goto next/prev bookmark in the current buffer
  • smart location calibration according to bookmark content
    • Init and calibrate by full match of the line content
    • A match algorithm that can tolerate small changes of the line content

V3

  • Sequance diagram out of bookmarks: Pattern [actor] -->actor sequance_number :: desc
