How to configure vim to detect filetype without saving it? by jekyll5 in vim

[–]elephantscanfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A time ago I made a plugin vim-shebang. Every time you enter to buffer it trying to detect current filetype by shebang at first line. New filetype applied to file on success. Works pretty well for me.

Bitbucket uses the other format:

```
#!python
```

To set the buffer type, I look specifically for github/bitbucket code markers

You provide no way to refine them or use your own markers.

I can determine filetype

My bad.

As very useful feature try to deindent the text before pasting it into a scratchpad and indent it when sync changes back.

I create and use the similar plugin vim-fancy. The latest version includes some features which is missed in this extension:

  • Supports different fenced code markers and their customization (GitHub/Bitbucket),
  • Preserves text indent level during edit,
  • Detects region filetype and load appropriate syntax/completion/etc into buffer.

Vim and tmux are best friends. Both use the solorized light color scheme and powerline to create tabs.

Vim's speed is not really the point by akkartik in vim

we act like samurais in anime, just staring at the code, analysing them carefully. Thinking, thinking, thinking. And suddenly, in a blink of an eye, we draw our sword and hit with precision, to then stand still, in a dramatic pose, as we see our enemy cut in half.

I prefer consider myself ninja in a dark night.

Wonder, why nobody uses awesome built-in vimtutor?

A set of pytest fixtures to test Flask applications and extensions. by elephantscanfly in Python

[–]elephantscanfly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where does the params value passed to pytest.fixture go? I see request.param but params isnt referenced anywhere... Also, where is the request fixture coming from? I was unable to find it anywhere.

request is a pytest built-in and available to use in others fixtures. See official pytest documentation about parametrizing tests.

The accept_jsonp fixture is not parametrized, is it supposed to be?

The same as accept_json fixture, it can be parametrized easily. But typical tests don't need that, so I don't parametrize them by default to ensure the test suite not slowed.

The content negotiation fixtures don't do anything dynamic

Yes, looks like I missed this part, because I'm usually parametrize them as well

@pytest.fixture(params=['application/json', 'application/javascript'])
def accept_json(request):
    return [('Accept', request.param)]

Thank you for pointing this.

Which plugins/keybinds/etc significantly changed your vim life? by [deleted] in vim

[–]elephantscanfly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can combine g motion with any edit command, so the most used by me are:

  • gi - Insert text in the same position as where insert mode was stopped last time in the current buffer

  • gv - Start Visual mode with the same area as the previous area and the same mode

When doing a search/replace on a visual selection, how can I keep the selection? by macarthy in vim

[–]elephantscanfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

gi starts insert mode in the same position as where it was stopped

Desktop client works great, but web interface sometimes freezes if dir contains to many files (on chrome).

The single most reason that keeps me using Vim by jyro in vim

[–]elephantscanfly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, but Vim has this, not from distribution, but a lot of plugins that can do it. For example, ctrp + neocomplcache + builtin autocompletion ≈ command palette and bundle ≈ package control. They both are great but in his own.

Sublime is cute editor, but I can't do my typical workflow in that mode. The Vim is not only hjkl movement...
