nvim-early-retirement 👴👵
Send buffers into early retirement by automatically closing them after x minutes of inactivity.
Makes the bufferline or :bnext less crowded.
Installation
-- packer
use {
"chrisgrieser/nvim-early-retirement",
config = function () require("early-retirement").setup() end,
}
-- lazy.nvim
{
"chrisgrieser/nvim-early-retirement",
config = true,
event = "VeryLazy",
},
Configuration
-- default values
opts = {
-- if a buffer has been inactive for this many minutes, close it
retirementAgeMins = 20,
-- filetypes to ignore
ignoredFiletypes = {},
-- ignore files matches this lua pattern (string.find); empty string
-- disables this setting
ignoreFilenamePattern = "";
-- will not close the alternate file
ignoreAltFile = true,
-- minimum number of open buffers for auto-closing to become active, e.g.,
-- by setting this to 4, no auto-closing will take place when you have 3
-- or less open buffers. Note that this plugin never closes the currently
-- active buffer, so a number < 2 will effectively disable this setting.
minimumBufferNum = 1,
-- will ignore buffers with unsaved changes. If false, the buffers will
-- automatically be written and then closed.
ignoreUnsavedChangesBufs = true,
-- ignore non-empty buftypes, for example terminal buffers
ignoreSpecialBuftypes = true,
-- ignore visible buffers ("a" in `:buffers`). buffers open in a window,
-- or in a tab are consider visible by vim
ignoreVisibleBufs = true,
-- ignore unloaded buffers. session-management plugin often add buffers
-- to the buffer list without loading them
ignoreUnloadedBufs = false,
-- uses vim.notify for plugins like nvim-notify
notificationOnAutoClose = false,
}
