x3ero0 / dired.nvim Goto Github PK

Firstly, I'd like to convey my gratitude for creating such an exceptional plugin. I have been a longtime user of nvimtree, but I genuinely believe that your plugin has immense potential. I'm hopeful that you will continue to develop it, adding even more valuable features.

Issue Encountered

Currently, there seems to be an unexpected behavior when attempting to search within the dired buffer using the / key. For example, after invoking the :Dired command, when I press / to search within a directory containing numerous files and folders, it redirects me to the root directory of my system, which is not the desired outcome.

Feature Requests

1. Buffer Search Capability: It would be immensely beneficial to be able to easily search within the dired buffer. then for the matching the cursor will jump to the dir name so easily hit enter.
2. Intuitive Keybinding Support: While I've managed to create my own keybindings, as seen below, an integrated approach would certainly enhance user experience.

local M = {}

local function dired_key_mapping()
    local map = vim.api.nvim_buf_set_keymap
    local opt = { silent = true, noremap = true }

    -- Set buffer-local mappings for 'dired' filetype
    map(0, 'n', 'h', ':DiredGoBack<CR>', opt)
    map(0, 'n', 'l', ':DiredEnter<CR>', opt)
end

M.setup = function()
    vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("FileType", {
        pattern = "dired",
        callback = dired_key_mapping
    })
end

return M

3. Adding Block editing
4. Adding support for nerd icons for the dired buffer
5. Support for changing permission on fly

Thank you once again, and please keep up the excellent work!

If it's possible to start Dired with telescope.

By search a dir or filename, then start a Dired buffer at that dir.

I've looked into the issue and I think I found a fix, before creating the PR I want to confirm that this isn't an issue only I'm experiencing.
my set up is taken from the README, haven't done anything special to it.
and it works as expected expect when trying to change how the list is sorted.(:DiredToggleSortOrder or pressing ',')
it fails because M.get_next_sort_order() returns nil.

function M.get_next_sort_order()
    local current = vim.g.dired_sort_order
    local sorting_functions = { "name", "date", "dirs" }
    local idx = 0
    for i, str in ipairs(sorting_functions) do
        if str == current then
            table.remove(sorting_functions, i)
            idx = i
        end
    end
    if idx > #sorting_functions then
        idx = 1
    end
    return sorting_functions[idx]
end

What I live most in Emacs is the capability to bulk editing file names in the so-called Wdired mode. Is it possible to equipt dired.nvim with this mode?

I want to express my appreciation for the excellent package, and I'm finding it very useful. However, I've encountered lack of feature when working with Dired mode/buf in the package.

Currently, when I enter a Dired buffer, there is no direct way to exit the buffer without opening or creating a file.

I'm getting this error when executing :Dired or nvim ..

Question:

Hi, I'm wondering how I can Move Marked files/directories in visual or normal mode.

When I select files/directories and I try to move them with MoveMarked or MoveRange I end up only highlighting the dir I'm trying to move it to. I've tried many variants and I can't seem to figure it out.

Neovim version: NVIM v0.7.2

    use {
        'X3eRo0/dired.nvim',
        requires = 'MunifTanjim/nui.nvim'
    }

require('dired').setup {
  path_separator = '/',
  show_banner = false,
  show_hidden = true
}

Maybe it is a conflict with nvim-tree?

Hi!

Thanks for the plugin!
