🧘 commentless.nvim

Hide comments, focus on the code flow, and reveal them if needed.

This plugin lets you fold all comments to better visualize your code’s logic, and unfold them whenever needed.

πŸ“¦ Installation

Use your favorite plugin manager to install it, and then run require("soemre/commentless.nvim").setup({}) to start it up.

Also, check out the Some Recommendations for Global Folding Behavior section.

{
    "soemre/commentless.nvim",
    cmd = "Commentless",
    keys = {
        {
            "<leader>/",
            function()
                require("commentless").toggle()
            end,
            desc = "Toggle Comments",
        },
    },
    dependencies = {
        "nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter",
    },
    opts = {
        -- Customize Configuration
    },
}

πŸš€ Usage

To get started, bind keys to the public API or run :Commentless <args> directly.

Example

vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>/", function()
    require("commentless").toggle()
end)

πŸ› οΈ Configuration

Check :help commentless for full documentation.

Default Configuration

{
    hide_following_blank_lines = true,
    foldtext = function(folded_count)
        return "(" .. folded_count .. " comments)"
    end,
}

Some Recommendations for Global Folding Behavior

vim.opt.foldminlines = 0 -- Allow folding/hiding single lines
vim.opt.fillchars = "fold: " -- Remove the trailing dots

β“˜ FAQ

Why isn't it working with some file types?

To determine whether something is a comment, it uses tree-sitter. Therefore, you need to have tree-sitter parsers installed for the file types (languages) you plan to use. You can install them using :TSInstall <language_to_install> or via the ensure_installed option in tree-sitter's setup parameters.
