Nerd TreeView
Unfortunately, I switched back to NeoVim and I am not planning any improvements in the future
The Nerd TreeView package will transform the native atom Tree View to somewhat
similar to the famous NERD Tree Vim plugin - hence the name
Some of the NERD Tree's functionality is present in the native Tree View by
default, but it doesn't expose any interface so apart from CSS developers
can't really change much. This package will try to replicate Vim's original
NERD Tree functionality
Current functionality
- Most of the key VIM NERD Tree default key bindings are working
- Completely replaces standard Tree View bindings
- Smooth scroll
- Search - accepts js regular expressions only, without slashes or flags
Planned/Not Available functionality
- Bookmarks (Integrate with Core Bookmarks?)
- NERD Tree menu (Subtree management)
- cd/CD (through ex-mode extention)
- Try to use vim-mode functionality where/if possible
- Expose API through service
- Show line numbers on demand (both relative and absolute)
Installation Notes
- This is first, and very unstable version
- Best to use in conjunction with vim-mode-plus
and vim-mode-plus-ex-mode
- Repetated operations (e.g. 10j to jump up 10 times) require disabling native
tree view keybindings
Tips
Use ZZ to save-and-close current tab/split
See vim-mode-zz
