Description

The tools in this package focus on, but are not exclusive to Python development with gVim. This is both a Vim plugin and a pip installable Python module.

Usage

We suggest using vim-plug to manage plugins. Install vim plug like this:

# Install vim-plug into your autoload directory
" See: https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug
curl -fLo ~/.vim/autoload/plug.vim --create-dirs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/junegunn/vim-plug/master/plug.vim

We suggest the following vimrc as a template:

" DEMO_VIMRC:

call plug#begin('~/.vim/bundle')

Plug 'Erotemic/vimtk'

call plug#end()            " required

filetype plugin indent on
syntax on

"""" The above code should be among the first things in your vimrc


" Map your leader key to comma (much easier to hit)
let mapleader = ","
let maplocalleader = ","
noremap \ ,

" Make default vimtk remaps
:call VimTK_default_remap()

" Register files you use all the time with quickopen
" (use <leader>i<char> as a shortcut to specific files
call vimtk#quickopen(',', '~/.vimrc')
call vimtk#quickopen('5', '~/.bashrc')

This module defines many helper functions, but does not bind them to keys by default unless VimTK_default_remap is called. The default bindings are as follows:

noremap <leader>H :call vimtk#helloworld()<Esc>

noremap  <leader>a :call vimtk#execute_text_in_terminal(mode())<CR>
vnoremap <leader>a :call vimtk#execute_text_in_terminal(visualmode())<CR>
noremap  <leader>m :call vimtk#execute_text_in_terminal('word')<CR>

noremap <leader>C :call vimtk#copy_current_fpath()<Esc>
noremap <leader>M :call vimtk#ipython_import_all()<CR>

command! AutoImport call vimtk#insert_auto_import()
noremap <leader>pv :call vimtk#insert_print_var_at_cursor()<CR>
noremap  <c-M-B> :call vimtk#insert_timerit(mode())<CR><Esc>
vnoremap <c-M-B> :call vimtk#insert_timerit(visualmode())<CR><Esc>

noremap <leader>es :call vimtk#smart_search_word_at_cursor()<CR>
noremap <leader>go :call vimtk#open_path_at_cursor("e")<CR>
noremap <leader>gf :call vimtk#open_path_at_cursor("e")<CR>
noremap <leader>gi :call vimtk#open_path_at_cursor("split")<CR>
noremap <leader>gv :call vimtk#open_path_at_cursor("vsplit")<CR>
noremap <leader>gv :call vimtk#open_path_at_cursor("vsplit")<CR>
noremap <leader>gt :call vimtk#open_path_at_cursor("tabe")<CR>
noremap gi :call vimtk#open_path_at_cursor("split")<CR>

" Doctest editing
vnoremap gd :call vimtk#py_format_doctest()<CR>
vnoremap gu :call vimtk#py_unformat_doctest()<CR>

Obviously you can modify the exact key bindings however you would like.

Here is what some of these functions do:

  • vimtk#execute_text_in_terminal - copies the current word, line, or visual selection and executes it in your most recently used terminal (perhaps running IPython or bash) without needing to alt-tab or copy paste. Default binding is <leader>a for the current line or visual selection and <leader>m for a word.

  • vimtk#ipython_import_all - if you are in a python module, this funciton creates a few lines of code that will import everything in this module into the current namespace. Note, it detects if you need to modify your pythonpath and does that. It also completely disregards __all__. These lines are then executed in your terminal (which should probably be an IPython session). Default binding is <leader>M.

  • vimtk#copy_current_fpath - Copies the path to the current file into the clipboard. On non-windows the home drive is replaced with ~. Default binding is <leader>C.

  • vimtk#auto_import - Automatically inserts missing Python imports.

  • vimtk#insert_print_var_at_cursor - Insert a print statement around the current variable your cursor is on (supports python, bash, cmake, and C++) Default binding is <leader>pv for a repr representation and <leader>ps for a ubelt repr2 representation.

  • vimtk#insert_timerit - Make a stub timerit and insert it at the current position

  • vimtk#open_path_at_cursor - Open a file path or web url at your cursor.

  • vimtk#quickopen(char, fpath) - Use <leader>[tvio]` to open predefined files / directories

  • vimtk#py_format_doctest - Default binding to <visual-select> gd. Inserts the doctest >>> prefix before the visually selected code.

  • vimtk#py_unformat_doctest - Default binding to <visual-select> gu. Removes the doctest >>> prefix before the visually selected code.

Alternate VIMRC

Note to get all the features, you need the following packages:

# The <leader>a ability requires xdotool and wmctrl on linux systems
sudo apt install xdotool wmctrl ctags

# vimtk requires ubelt in whichever environment it is running
pip install ubelt --user

# There are also third party python packages needed for some functions
pip install pyperclip pyflakes xinspect psutil --user

# On windows you should also install pywinauto
pip install pywinauto --user

Note: there have been some issues regarding which Python environment these pacakges are installed to and which Python environment is used by Vim. We are working to resolve these issues. Bug reports and patches are welcome!
