## vim-argwrap ##
|
|
|
|
This is an industrial strength argument wrapping and unwrapping extension for the [VIM](http://www.vim.org/) text
|
|
editor. It can be used for collapsing and expanding everything from function calls to array and dictionary definitions.
|
|
|
|
### Installation and Usage ###
|
|
|
|
1. Clone or otherwise download the vim-argwrap extension from the [GitHub
|
|
page](https://github.com/FooSoft/vim-argwrap). If you are using
|
|
[vim-pathogen](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen) for plugin management (if you aren't you should) you can
|
|
clone the repository directly to your bundle directory:<br>`git clone
|
|
https://github.com/FooSoft/vim-argwrap ~/.vim/bundle/vim-argwrap`.
|
|
1. Create a keyboard binding for `argwrap#toggle()` inside your `~/.vimrc` file. For example, you may declare a normal
|
|
mode hotkey:<br>`nnoremap <silent> <leader>w :call argwrap#toggle()<CR>`.
|
|
2. Position cursor *inside* of the scope of the parenthesis or brackets you wish to wrap/unwrap (not on top or before
|
|
or after them).
|
|
3. Execute the keyboard binding defined above to *toggle* wrapping and unwrapping arguments.
|
|
|
|
### Examples ###
|
|
|
|
Below are examples of some common use cases demonstrating the capabilities of vim-argwrap. The extension functions the
|
|
same way regardless if it is being used on a function call, list or dictionary definitions.
|
|
|
|
Let's first look at a simple function invocation. When there are many arguments being passed in, we may wish to wrap
|
|
them to improve readability. If we position your cursor anywhere between the `(` and `)` parenthesis and execute the
|
|
`argwrap#toggle()` command, the function call arguments will be wrapped to one per line.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Foo('wibble', 'wobble', 'wubble')
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
Foo(
|
|
'wibble',
|
|
'wobble',
|
|
'wubble'
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
List definitions work in a similar fashion:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
foo = ['bar', 'baz', 'qux', 'quux', 'corge']
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
foo = [
|
|
'bar',
|
|
'baz',
|
|
'qux',
|
|
'quux',
|
|
'corge'
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Dictionaries work just fine too:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
foo = {'bar': 1, 'baz': 3, 'qux': 3, 'quux': 7}
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
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]})
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
Foo(
|
|
['wibble', 'wobble', 'wubble'],
|
|
'spam',
|
|
{'bar': 'baz', 'qux': [1, 3, 3, 7]}
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
Foo(
|
|
[
|
|
'wibble',
|
|
'wobble',
|
|
'wubble'
|
|
],
|
|
'spam',
|
|
{
|
|
'bar': 'baz',
|
|
'qux': [
|
|
1,
|
|
3,
|
|
3,
|
|
7
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
All of the above argument wrapping and unwrapping operations demonstrated above are toggle-able 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 let me know.
