hovsater / vpm Goto Github PK

vpm should have a test suit. Ideally integrated with a CI server such as Travis CI.

The current implementation is brittle. I want to extract each "command" into it's own function as well as extracting common logic into helper functions.

This is a must for further development.

Since I'm now porting vpm to Go there are a lot more possibilities than before. vpm can now be cross-plattform and features can be added more easily. Below are some ideas of features/improvements that can be done. Consider the each item in the list a MAYBE. Many of these items may as well end up not being a good fit for the project.

Feel free to contribute as you please.

• Support alternative version control systems such as Mercurial or Subversion.
• Automatically add/remove plugins to the ~/.vimplugins file. Currently you have to manually edit it before running vpm bootstrap.
• Add search capabilities to vpm by using the API of http://vimawesome.com/. It could be implemented either directly via a search command or indirectly via a separate go library.
• Look into possibilities of supporting alternative bootstrapping plugins. Currently vpm uses Pathogen for bootstrapping. Would be nice if vpm supported alternatives such as Unbundle or Enabler.

Make sure vpm work in zsh as well.

One should be able to autocomplete commands as well as installed plugins.

Currently we have the ability to list, install, update and uninstall files. To make the experience somewhat complete I want to introduce two new commands. bootstrap and snapshot.

Basically this would allow one to snapshot installed plugins to a file (may it be ~/.vimplugins, ~/.vimbundles or what have you) and then bootstrap (install them) plugins in this file. This will lead to a fast and simple way of downloading all you're dependencies.

The main goal of vpm is to be lightweight and simple, so I guess these commands is just under the requirements.

I would love some feedback from you, @tpope, if you're interested in giving any. That would mean a lot too me.

Getting these errors when bootstrap-ing one some or all of the plugins. Any idea what might be the problem? I've already tried removing and recreating ~/.vim/bundle and re-running vpm bootstrap.

vpm should be able to support any source featuring Git as the VCS. Currently vpm support GitHub repositories only.
