Introduction

A polished, IDE-like, highly-customizable winbar for Neovim with drop-down menus and multiple backends.

For more information see :h dropbar.

Features

https://github.com/Bekaboo/dropbar.nvim/assets/76579810/e8c1ac26-0321-4762-9975-b20fc3098c5a

Opening drop-down menus or go to definition with a single mouse click
Pick mode for quickly selecting a component in the winbar with shortcuts
Automatically truncating long components
- Better truncation when winbar is still too long after shortening all components
Multiple backends that support fall-backs dropbar.nvim comes with five builtin sources:
- lsp: gets symbols from language servers using nvim's builtin LSP framework
- markdown: a custom incremental parser that gets symbol information about markdown headings
- path: gets current file path
- treesitter: gets symbols from treesitter parsers using nvim's builtin treesitter integration
- terminal: easily switch terminal buffers using the dropdown menu To make a new source yourself, see making a new source. For source fall-backs support, see bar options.
Zero config & Zero dependency dropbar.nvim does not require nvim-lspconfig, nvim-treesitter or any third-party UI libraries to work. As long as the language server or the treesitter parser is installed, it should work just fine. Optionally, you can install telescope-fzf-native to add fuzzy search support to dropbar menus.
Drop-down menu components and winbar symbols that response to mouse/cursor hovering:
- This features requires :h mousemoveevent to be enabled.
Preview symbols in their source windows when hovering over them in the drop-down menu
Reorient the source window on previewing or after jumping to a symbol
Add scrollbar to the menu when the symbol list is too long

Requirements

Neovim >= 0.11.0
Optional
- nvim-web-devicons, if you want to see icons for different filetypes
- telescope-fzf-native, if you want fuzzy search support
- Working language server installation for the lsp source to work
- Working treesitter parser installation for the treesitter source to work

Installation

Using lazy.nvim

require('lazy').setup({
  {
    'Bekaboo/dropbar.nvim',
    -- optional, but required for fuzzy finder support
    dependencies = {
      'nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim',
      build = 'make'
    },
    config = function()
      local dropbar_api = require('dropbar.api')
      vim.keymap.set('n', '<Leader>;', dropbar_api.pick, { desc = 'Pick symbols in winbar' })
      vim.keymap.set('n', '[;', dropbar_api.goto_context_start, { desc = 'Go to start of current context' })
      vim.keymap.set('n', '];', dropbar_api.select_next_context, { desc = 'Select next context' })
    end
  }
})

Using packer.nvim

require('packer').startup(function(use)
  use({
    'Bekaboo/dropbar.nvim',
    requires = {
      'nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim',
      run = 'make'
    },
    config = function ()
      local dropbar_api = require('dropbar.api')
      vim.keymap.set('n', '<Leader>;', dropbar_api.pick, { desc = 'Pick symbols in winbar' })
      vim.keymap.set('n', '[;', dropbar_api.goto_context_start, { desc = 'Go to start of current context' })
      vim.keymap.set('n', '];', dropbar_api.select_next_context, { desc = 'Select next context' })
    end
  })
end)

Using native package manager

mkdir -p ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packages/
git clone https://github.com/Bekaboo/dropbar.nvim ~/.local/share/nvim/site/pack/packages/start/dropbar.nvim

Lazy-loading is unneeded as it is already done in plugin/dropbar.lua.

Usage

Basics
- Moves the cursor around and see the winbar reflects your current context
Mouse support
- Click on a component in the winbar to open a drop-down menu of its siblings
- Click on an entry in the drop-down menu to go to its location
- Click on the indicator in the drop-down menu to open a sub-menu of its children
Pick mode
- Use require('dropbar.api').pick() to enter interactive pick mode or require('dropbar.api').pick(<idx>) to directly select a component at idx.
- Inside interactive pick mode, press the corresponding pivot shown before each component to select it
Fuzzy finder
- Use dropbar_menu_t:fuzzy_find_open() to interactively filter, select and preview entries using fzf
- <Esc>: exit fzf mode
- <Up>/<Down>: move the cursor in fzf mode
- <CR>: call the on_click callback of the symbol under the cursor
Default keymaps in drop-down menu
- <LeftMouse>: call the on_click callback of the symbol at the mouse click
- <CR>: find the first clickable symbol in the current drop-down menu entry and call its on_click callback
- i: enter fzf mode from the menu
- q / <Esc>: close current menu
- To disable, remap or add new keymaps in the drop-down menu, see menu options

Usage with `vim.ui.select`

Dropbar can be used as a drop-in replacement for Neovim's builtin vim.ui.select menu.

To enable this functionality, simply replace vim.ui.select with dropbar.utils.menu.select:

vim.ui.select = require('dropbar.utils.menu').select

Configuration

Options

For all available options and their default values, see lua/dropbar/configs.lua.

Below are the detailed explanation of the options.

Bar

These options live under opts.bar and are used to control the behavior of the winbar:

opts.bar.enable: boolean|fun(buf: integer?, win: integer?, info: table?): boolean

Controls whether to attach dropbar to the current buffer and window
If a function is provided, it will be called with the current bufnr and winid and should return a boolean

Default:

function(buf, win, _)
  if
    not vim.api.nvim_buf_is_valid(buf)
    or not vim.api.nvim_win_is_valid(win)
    or vim.fn.win_gettype(win) ~= ''
    or vim.wo[win].winbar ~= ''
    or vim.bo[buf].ft == 'help'
  then
    return false
  end

  local stat = vim.uv.fs_stat(vim.api.nvim_buf_get_name(buf))
  if stat and stat.size > 1024 * 1024 then
    return false
  end

  return vim.bo[buf].ft == 'markdown'
    or pcall(vim.treesitter.get_parser, buf)
    or not vim.tbl_isempty(vim.lsp.get_clients({
      bufnr = buf,
      method = 'textDocument/documentSymbol',
    }))
end,

opts.bar.attach_events: string[]
- Controls when to evaluate the enable() function and attach the plugin to corresponding buffer or window
- Default:
```
{
  'TermOpen',
  'BufWinEnter',
  'BufWritePost',
}
```
opts.bar.update_debounce: number
- Wait for a short time before updating the winbar, if another update request is received within this time, the previous request will be cancelled, this improves the performance when the user is holding down a key (e.g. 'j') to scroll the window
- If you encounter performance issues when scrolling the window, try setting this option to a number slightly larger than 1000 / key_repeat_rate
- Default: 32
opts.bar.update_events.win: string[]
- List of events that should trigger an update on the dropbar attached to a single window
- Default:
```
{
  'CursorMoved',
  'WinEnter',
  'WinResized',
}
```
opts.bar.update_events.buf: string[]
- List of events that should trigger an update on all dropbars attached to a buffer
- Default:
```
{
  'BufModifiedSet',
  'FileChangedShellPost',
  'TextChanged',
  'ModeChanged',
}
```
opts.bar.update_events.global: string[]
- List of events that should trigger an update of all dropbars in current nvim session
- Default:
```
{
  'DirChanged',
  'VimResized',
}
```
opts.bar.hover: boolean
- Whether to highlight the symbol under the cursor
- This feature requires 'mousemoveevent' to be enabled
- Default: true

opts.bar.sources: dropbar_source_t[]|fun(buf: integer, win: integer): dropbar_source_t[]

List of sources to show in the winbar
If a function is provided, it will be called with the current bufnr and winid and should return a list of sources

Default:

function(buf, _)
  local sources = require('dropbar.sources')
  local utils = require('dropbar.utils')
  if vim.bo[buf].ft == 'markdown' then
    return {
      sources.path,
      sources.markdown,
    }
  end
  if vim.bo[buf].buftype == 'terminal' then
    return {
      sources.terminal,
    }
  end
  return {
    sources.path,
    utils.source.fallback({
      sources.lsp,
      sources.treesitter,
    }),
  }
end

For more information about sources, see dropbar_source_t.

- Default: true
opts.menu.entry.padding: { left: number, right: number }
- Padding to use between the menu entry and the menu border
- Default: { left = 1, right = 1 }
opts.menu.preview: boolean
- Whether to enable previewing for menu entries
- Default: true
opts.menu.hover: boolean
- Whether to highlight the symbol under the cursor
- This feature requires 'mousemoveevent' to be enabled
- Default: true

opts.menu.keymaps: table<string, function|string|table<string, function>|table<string, string>>

Buffer-local keymaps in the menu
Use <key> = <function|string> to map a key in normal mode in the menu buffer, or use <key> = table<mode, function|string> to map a key in specific modes.

Default:

{
  ['q'] = '<C-w>q',
  ['<Esc>'] = '<C-w>q',
  ['<LeftMouse>'] = function()
    local menu = utils.menu.get_current()
    if not menu then
      return
    end
    local mouse = vim.fn.getmousepos()
    local clicked_menu = utils.menu.get({ win = mouse.winid })
    -- If clicked on a menu, invoke the corresponding click action,
    -- else close all menus and set the cursor to the clicked window
    if clicked_menu then
      clicked_menu:click_at({ mouse.line, mouse.column - 1 }, nil, 1, 'l')
      return
    end
    utils.menu.exec('close')
    utils.bar.exec('update_current_context_hl')

      vim.api.nvim_set_current_win(mouse.winid)
    end
  end,
  ['<CR>'] = function()
    local menu = utils.menu.get_current()
    if not menu then
      return
    end
    local cursor = vim.api.nvim_win_get_cursor(menu.win)
    local component = menu.entries[cursor[1]]:first_clickable(cursor[2])
    if component then
      menu:click_on(component, nil, 1, 'l')
    end
  end,
  ['<MouseMove>'] = function()
    local menu = utils.menu.get_current()
    if not menu then
      return
    end
    local mouse = vim.fn.getmousepos()

    menu:fuzzy_find_open()
  end,
},

opts.menu.scrollbar: table<string, boolean>

Scrollbar configuration for the menu.

Default:

{
  enable = true,
  -- if false, only the scrollbar thumb will be shown
  background = true
}

opts.menu.win_configs: table<string, dropbar_menu_win_config_opts_t>

Window configurations for the menu, see :h nvim_open_win()
Each config key in opts.menu.win_configs accepts either a plain value which will be passes directly to nvim_open_win(), or a function that takes the current menu (see dropbar_menu_t) as an argument and returns a value to be passed to nvim_open_win().

          or math.ceil(vim.go.lines / 4)
      )
    )
  end,

    local min_width = vim.go.pumwidth ~= 0 and vim.go.pumwidth or 8
    if vim.tbl_isempty(menu.entries) then
      return min_width
    end
    return math.max(
      min_width,
      math.max(unpack(vim.tbl_map(function(entry)
        return entry:displaywidth()
      end, menu.entries)))
    )
  end,

Configuration Examples

Custom Filename Highlight Group

This configuration highlights filenames from path source with custom highlight group DropBarFileName.

local dropbar = require('dropbar')
local sources = require('dropbar.sources')
local utils = require('dropbar.utils')

vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, 'DropBarFileName', { fg = '#FFFFFF', italic = true })

local custom_path = {
  get_symbols = function(buff, win, cursor)
    local symbols = sources.path.get_symbols(buff, win, cursor)
    symbols[#symbols].name_hl = 'DropBarFileName'
    if vim.bo[buff].modified then
      symbols[#symbols].name = symbols[#symbols].name .. ' [+]'
      symbols[#symbols].name_hl = 'DiffAdded'
    end
    return symbols
  end,
}

dropbar.setup({
  bar = {
    sources = function(buf, _)
      if vim.bo[buf].ft == 'markdown' then
        return {
          custom_path,
          sources.markdown,
        }
      end
      if vim.bo[buf].buftype == 'terminal' then
        return {
          sources.terminal,
        }
      end
      return {
        custom_path,
        utils.source.fallback {
          sources.lsp,
          sources.treesitter,
        },
      }
    end,
  },
})

Normalize Path in Special Buffers

Some plugins, e.g. oil and fugitive, have buffers with file path confusing for dropbar.nvim. This is because their buffers names start with things like oil:// or fugitive://.

This configuration should addresses the issue:

require('dropbar').setup({
  bar = {
    enable = function(buf, win, _)
      if
        not vim.api.nvim_buf_is_valid(buf)
        or not vim.api.nvim_win_is_valid(win)
        or vim.fn.win_gettype(win) ~= ''
        or vim.wo[win].winbar ~= ''
        or vim.bo[buf].ft == 'help'
      then
        return false
      end

      local stat = vim.uv.fs_stat(vim.api.nvim_buf_get_name(buf))
      if stat and stat.size > 1024 * 1024 then
        return false
      end

      return vim.bo[buf].bt == 'terminal'
        or vim.bo[buf].ft == 'markdown'
        or pcall(vim.treesitter.get_parser, buf)
        or not vim.tbl_isempty(vim.lsp.get_clients({
          bufnr = buf,
          method = 'textDocument/documentSymbol',
        }))
    end,
  },
  sources = {
    path = {
      relative_to = function(buf, win)
        -- Show full path in oil or fugitive buffers
        local bufname = vim.api.nvim_buf_get_name(buf)
        if
          vim.startswith(bufname, 'oil://')
          or vim.startswith(bufname, 'fugitive://')
        then
          local root = bufname:gsub('^%S+://', '', 1)
          while root and root ~= vim.fs.dirname(root) do
            root = vim.fs.dirname(root)
          end
          return root
        end

        local ok, cwd = pcall(vim.fn.getcwd, win)
        return ok and cwd or vim.fn.getcwd()
      end,
    },
  },
})

Making a New Source

A dropbar_source_t instance is just a table with get_symbols field set to a function that returns an array of dropbar_symbol_t instances given the buffer number, the window id, and the cursor position.

We have seen a simple example of a custom source in the default config of opts.bar.sources where the second source is set to a combination of lsp/treesitter/markdown sources using the utils.source.fallback() factory function, which simply returns a table containing a get_symbols() function where each source passed to utils.source.fallback() is queried and the first non-empty result get from the sources is returned as the result of the combined source.

Here is another example of a custom source that will always return two symbols saying 'Hello' and 'dropbar' with highlights 'hl-Keyword' and 'hl-Title' and a smiling face shown in 'hl-WarningMsg' at the start of the first symbol; clicking on the first symbol will show a notification message saying 'Have you smiled today?', followed by the smiling face icon used in the in dropbar symbol:

local bar = require('dropbar.bar')
local custom_source = {
  get_symbols = function(_, _, _)
    return {
      bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
        icon = ' ',
        icon_hl = 'WarningMsg',
        name = 'Hello',
        name_hl = 'Keyword',
        on_click = function(self)
          vim.notify('Have you smiled today? ' .. self.icon)
        end,
      }),
      bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
        name = 'dropbar',
        name_hl = 'Title',
      }),
    }
  end,
}

Add this source to opts.bar.sources table to see it in action:

require('dropbar').setup({
  bar = {
    sources = {
      custom_source,
    },
  },
})

Source With Drop-Down Menus

The following example shows how to make a source that returns two symbols with the first symbol having a drop-down menu with a single entry saying 'World':

local bar = require('dropbar.bar')
local menu = require('dropbar.menu')
local custom_source = {
  get_symbols = function(_, _, _)
    return {
      bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
        icon = ' ',
        icon_hl = 'WarningMsg',
        name = 'Hello',
        name_hl = 'Keyword',
        on_click = function(self)
          self.menu = menu.dropbar_menu_t:new({
            entries = {
              menu.dropbar_menu_entry_t:new({
                components = {
                  bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
                    icon = ' ',
                    icon_hl = 'WarningMsg',
                    name = 'World',
                    name_hl = 'Keyword',
                    on_click = function(sym)
                      vim.notify('Have you smiled today? ' .. sym.icon)
                    end,
                  }),
                },
              }),
            },
          })
          self.menu:toggle()
        end,
      }),
      bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
        name = 'dropbar',
        icon = ' ',
        name_hl = 'Special',
        icon_hl = 'Error',
      }),
    }
  end,
}

Default `on_click()` Callback

dropbar_symbol_t:new() defines a default on_click() callback if non is provided.

The default on_click() callback will look for these fields in the symbol instance and create a drop-down menu accordingly on click, for more information about these fields see dropbar_symbol_t.

For creating the drop-down menu:

dropbar_symbol_t.siblings
dropbar_symbol_t.sibling_idx
dropbar_symbol_t.children

For jumping to the symbol or previewing it:

dropbar_symbol_t.range
dropbar_symbol_t.win
dropbar_symbol_t.buf

The following example shows a source that utilizes the default on_click() callback:

local bar = require('dropbar.bar')
local custom_source = {
  get_symbols = function(buf, win, _)
    return {
      bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
        name = 'Section 1',
        name_hl = 'Keyword',
        siblings = {
          bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
            name = 'Section 2',
            name_hl = 'WarningMsg',
          }),
          bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
            name = 'Section 3',
            name_hl = 'Error',
          }),
          bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
            name = 'Section 4',
            name_hl = 'String',
            children = {
              bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new({
                buf = buf,
                win = win,
                name = 'Section 4.1',
                name_hl = 'String',
                -- Will jump to line 3, col 4 (0-indexed) when clicked in the
                -- menu
                range = {
                  start = { line = 3, character = 4 },
                  ['end'] = { line = 5, character = 6 },
                }
              }),
            },
          }),
        },
      }),
    }
  end,
}

To see this source in action add it to opts.bar.sources table:

require('dropbar').setup({
  bar = {
    sources = {
      custom_source,
    },
  },
})

Lazy-Loading Expensive Fields

If the symbol fields siblings or children are expensive to compute, you can use meta-tables to lazy-load them, so that they are only computed when a menu is opened:

local bar = require('dropbar.bar')
local custom_source = {
  get_symbols = function(_, _, _)
    return {
      bar.dropbar_symbol_t:new(setmetatable({
        name = 'Section 1',
        name_hl = 'Keyword',
      }, {
        __index = function(self, key)
          if key == 'siblings' then
            self[siblings] = -- [[ compute siblings ]]
            return self[siblings]
          end
          if key == 'children' then
            self[children] = -- [[ compute children ]]
            return self[children]
          end
          -- ...
        end,
      })),
    }
  end,
}

To see concrete examples of lazy-loading see lua/dropbar/sources.
