Option to change local instead of global path

[maxmahlke]

Nice plugin! I have tried it out and prefer it over telescope-project as yours is more configurable.

One option I would like to see is to make the path change when opening a workspace local instead of global. I like to have one tab per project/workspace open in nvim, so global path changes are a bit of a nuisance to me.

It could be a plugin option à la use_local_path=True. I saw that you're using nvim_set_current_dir for the path changes, which does not seem to have a local alternative, so maybe something like vim.cmd[[lcd path/to/workspace]]?

Yeah I think that should be a simple fix! I'll give it a try later today and make a branch so you can test it out, since I'm not 100% sure exactly what your workflow is :)

Give the localcd branch a try. The readme has been updated. I tested myself and it seems to work, but let me know if something isn't right.

Hi Nate, thanks for the quick response, it works great! Looks good for the master branch to me.

Just FYI, here's my current config, it just opens a new tab whenever I switch project.

require("workspaces").setup({

    global_cd = false,

    hooks = {
        open_pre={"tabnew"},
        open = {"Telescope find_files"}
    }
})

Next step for my config is to automatically rename the tab to the project/workspace name and afterwards, when switching projects with this plugin, it should find the tab and switch to it rather than creating a new one. It's not too ambitious, just right for my lua skills.

Thanks again!

Glad it works! I just merged to master (along with a deprecation, see the changelog for details). Good luck with your workflow, and let me know if you might need any other features!
