Features

  • :h: Searches the neovim online :help. Groups synonyms together, for example, :w and :write both get one item.
    • ⏎: Open the respective help.
    • ⌥⏎: Copy the help URL to the clipboard.
  • vp: Searches neovimcraft for neovim plugins. Mnemonic: [v]im [p]lugins.
    • ⏎: Open the GitHub repo.
    • ⌘⏎: Open the :help page of the plugin at GitHub.
    • ⌥⏎: Copy the GitHub URL to the clipboard.
    • ⇧⏎: Search GitHub issues of the plugin.[^1]
  • ip: Search for plugins (and Mason tools) installed locally on your device. Mnemonic: [i]installed [p]lugins. The modifiers (⌘⌥⌃⇧) from the plugin-search also apply for this command. In addition:
    • fn⏎: Open the local directory of the plugin in Finder.
  • mason: Search for tools available via mason.nvim.
  • :old: Displays and searches your :oldfiles. Opens them in the system's default editor for the respective filetype. (To open them directly in neovim, you need a neovim GUI with Open With… capability though.)
  • :nvim: Creates the local cache for the online :help search. Run it once in a while, when there have been updates to the online docs.

Note
All keywords are customizable in the settings.

Installation

Requirements: Alfred 5 (macOS only) with Powerpack.

  1. Download the latest release from the Alfred Gallery.
  2. Run :nvim once to create the local cache for the online :help search. This may take up to a minute.
