v0.2.0 breaking change: add visited_at to Bookmark structure

Bookmarks.nvim

You only need one shortcut to add bookmarks.

• Toggle mark: Add and Remove mark with one shortcut
• Mark with name: so you can record more information
• Icon and virtual text: display icon and name at the marked lines
• Group your bookmarks: so keep your away from the noises
• Persistent your bookmarks into a human reable json file, which you can manipulate munally
• More usecases
• Video Explaination

Install and Config

• Simple version: everything should work out of box if you are ok with the default config.

-- with lazy.nvim
return {
  "LintaoAmons/bookmarks.nvim",
  dependencies = {
    {"stevearc/dressing.nvim"} -- optional: to have the same UI shown in the GIF
  }
}

Right now we have only one config options

return { "LintaoAmons/bookmarks.nvim",
  config = function ()
    require("bookmarks").setup( {
      json_db_path = vim.fs.normalize(vim.fn.stdpath("config") .. "/bookmarks.db.json"),
    })
  end
}

Commands and Keybindings

There's two concepts in this plugin: BookmarkList and Bookmark. You can look into the code to find the structure of those two domain objects

This plugin don't provide any default keybinding. I recommend you to have those three 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" })

Thanks

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.
• user defined commands
• more useful information when deal with corrupted json db (no issues report yet)
• refactor: extract picker module
• Telescope as default picker and will fallback to vim.ui if don't have telescope dependencies
• telescope enhancement (use specific command instead)
• Recent files as bookmarks: record all the buffer the user recently opened and sort by the visited_at
• A new command to create bookmark and put it into specific bookmark list (instead current active one)
• goto next/prev bookmark in the current buffer

V2

• filetree-like BookmarkList and Bookmark browsing.
• smart location calibration according to bookmark content
