snap VS telescope-fzf-native.nvim

https://github.com/camspiers/snap is written in fennel which compiles to lua.

Fuzzy finders (telescope, or snap for the hipsters)

I have gone through many plugins for finding files and live grep. Last time I switched from https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim to https://github.com/camspiers/snap. I liked, that is snap is perceivably faster. My main grudge against snap is that I can't manage to use lsp as a source producer. So I am looking for a new plugin.

It's been a long road to get here, and required refactoring, like, 95% of the original code, but I'm proud to announce that I've just release Dash.nvim v0.8.0, now supporting Telescope, fzf-lua, and Snap!

Does it support bat previews instead of native? All I could find was this comment in a closed PR.

Lua plugins. If you don't want to write lua, that's fine, but that's something plugin authors may wish to do... and they do! They can write more complex and performant plugins more easily. (e.g. snap with user-customizable async producer/consumer API, telescope.nvim, lightspeed.nvim, LSP plugins, ...)

I recommend this: https://github.com/camspiers/snap

- the scoring may be done with telescope-fzf-native, but it is then sorted in lua.

Looking at https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim/blob/main/Makefile this actually makes the lib, as there's a target=libfzf in there. Doesn't seem to have a requirement on fzf.

Based on the accounts of many here, it seems that fzf-lua is faster than Telescope. Are we talking about the default sorter in Telescope or also the fzf sorter also?

local telescope = require("telescope") local trouble_provider = require("trouble.providers.telescope") telescope.setup({ live_grep = { --@usage don't include the filename in the search results only_sort_text = true, theme = "dropdown", }, extensions = { fzf = { fuzzy = true, -- false will only do exact matching override_generic_sorter = true, -- override the generic sorter override_file_sorter = true, -- override the file sorter case_mode = "smart_case", -- or "ignore_case" or "respect_case" }, }, defaults = { vimgrep_arguments = { 'rg', '--color=never', '--no-heading', '--with-filename', '--line-number', '--column', '--hidden', '--smart-case', '--glob "!.git"', }, mappings = { i = { -- source: https://github.com/folke/trouble.nvim [""] = trouble_provider.open_with_trouble, }, n = { -- source: https://github.com/folke/trouble.nvim [""] = trouble_provider.open_with_trouble, }, }, set_env = { ["COLORTERM"] = "truecolor" }, -- default = nil, }, }) -- source: https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim require("telescope").load_extension("fzf")

This might help: telescope-fzf-native

It's not fuzzy during the live_grep itself, but by hitting `` you can fuzzy search among the results shown. You can even use the fzf syntax with https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-fzf-native.nvim/issues.

Are you using telescope-fzf-native.nvim?

I'm trying to install telescope-fzf-native.nvim following the instructions in its page. I've added to my init.lua the following line of code:
