# guid.nvim
|
|
|
|
This [Neovim](https://neovim.io/) plugin simplifies common operations when working with [Globally Unique
|
|
Identifiers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier) (GUIDs). As guid.nvim is written entirely in
|
|
Lua, classic Vim is not supported.

## GUID Styles
|
|
|
|
There a few standard ways to format GUIDs. The one-character format specifier for these styles are based on the
|
|
convention outlined in the [documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.guid.tostring?view=net-7.0)
|
|
for `Guid.ToString`. This set of specifiers was expanded to allow the case of hexadecimal characters to be specified.
|
|
The casing of the specifier determines whether lowercase or uppercase will be used.
|
|
|
|
* `n` `00000000000000000000000000000000` \
|
|
32 digits.
|
|
|
|
* `d` `00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000` \
|
|
32 digits separated by hyphens.
|
|
|
|
* `b` `{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}` \
|
|
32 digits separated by hyphens, enclosed in braces.
|
|
|
|
* `p` `(00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000)` \
|
|
32 digits separated by hyphens, enclosed in parenthesis.
|
|
|
|
* `x` `{0x00000000,0x0000,0x0000,{0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00}}` \
|
|
Four hexadecimal values enclosed in braces, where the fourth value is a subset of eight hexadecimal values that is also enclosed in braces.
|
|
|
|
## GUID Commands
|
|
|
|
* `GuidInsert [style]` \
|
|
Inserts a GUID at the cursor position using the default or provided style.
|
|
|
|
* `GuidFormat [style]` \
|
|
Formats the GUID at the cursor position using the default or provided style.
|
|
|
|
* `GuidObject` \
|
|
Selects the GUID at the cursor position (useful for text objects).
|
|
|
|
## GUID Text Object
|
|
|
|
A custom text object for GUIDs is provided. By default it is bound to the `g` key. For example to yank a GUID you would
|
|
input `yig` in normal mode. The GUID text object supports all of the GUID styles described above.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
The plugin should be configured by calling the `setup` function. Options can be optionally provided if you wish to
|
|
override the default settings, which are shown below:
|
|
|
|
```lua
|
|
require('guid').setup({
|
|
comma_space = false,
|
|
default_style = 'd',
|
|
object_char = 'g'
|
|
})
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
These options are:
|
|
|
|
* `comma_space` \
|
|
Determines if commas should be followed by spaces in GUIDs formatted with the `x` specifier.
|
|
|
|
* `default_style` \
|
|
Determines what style to use if one is not provided for `GuidInsert` and `GuidFormat` commands.
|
|
|
|
* `object-char` \
|
|
Determines which character should be used for the GUID text object.
