It can be used for collapsing and expanding everything from +function calls to array and dictionary definitions. The online listed below can +be accessed to download new versions of this extension and to access other +information. + + Homepage: http://foosoft.net/projects/vim-argwrap/ + GitHub: https://github.com/FooSoft/vim-argwrap/ + +================================================================================ +INSTALLATION *argwrap-installation* + +## Installation ## + +1. Clone or otherwise download the latest version of the argwrap extension from + its GitHub page (the script is also available for download through vim.org. + If you are using pathogen for plugin management (you should) you can clone + the repository directly to your bundle directory: + + git clone https://github.com/FooSoft/vim-argwrap ~/.vim/bundle/vim-argwrap + +2. Create a keyboard binding for argwrap#toggle() inside your ~/.vimrc file. + For example, to declare a normal mode mapping, add the following command: + + nnoremap w :call argwrap#toggle() + + The toggle function receives an optional style argument, which may be either + "default" or "bx". Not providing an explicit value is equivalent to + specifying the "default" setting. The style determines the wrapping behavior + as seen below: + + Default-style argument wrapping: + + Foo( + wibble, + wobble, + wubble + ) + + Bx-style argument wrapping: + + Foo(wibble + , wobble + , wubble + ) + +================================================================================ +USAGE *argwrap-usage* + +1. Position the cursor inside of the scope of the parenthesis, brackets or + curly braces you wish to wrap/unwrap (not on top, before or after them). + +2. Execute the keyboard binding you defined above to toggle the wrapping and + unwrapping of arguments. + +================================================================================ +EXAMPLES *argwrap-examples* + +Below are some examples of common use cases demonstrating the capabilities of +argwrap. Note that the extension functions identically regardless if it is being +applied to a function call, list or dictionary definition. + +Let's begin with a simple function invocation. When there are many arguments +being passed to the function, we often wish to wrap them to improve code +readability. If you position your cursor anywhere between the parenthesis and +execute the argwrap#toggle() command, the argument list will be wrapped to one +per line. + +Foo(wibble, wobble, wubble) + +Becomes this: + +Foo( + wibble, + wobble, + wubble +) + +List definitions work in a similar fashion: + +foo = [bar, baz, qux, quux, corge] + +Becomes this: + +foo = [ + bar, + baz, + qux, + quux, + corge +] + +Dictionaries also work the way you expected them to: + +foo = {bar: 1, baz: 3, qux: 3, quux: 7} + +Becomes this: + +foo = { + bar: 1, + baz: 3, + qux: 3, + quux: 7 +} + +Finally, nested combinations of all the above are also supported: + +Foo([wibble, wobble, wubble], spam, {bar: baz, qux: [1, 3, 3, 7]}) + +Becomes this: + +Foo( + [wibble, wobble, wubble], + spam, + {bar: baz, qux: [1, 3, 3, 7]} +) + +You can continue argument expansion to: + +Foo( + [ + wibble, + wobble, + wubble + ], + spam, + { + bar: baz, + qux: [ + 1, + 3, + 3, + 7 + ] + } +) + +The argument wrapping and unwrapping operations demonstrated above are easily +reversible and correctly preserve the indentation of the surrounding code. This +extension has been tested to work in scenarios of various complexity, but if you +discover a problem don't hesitate to report it.
