fm-nvim VS telescope-file-browser.nvim

fm-nvim

I'm already using vifm as my main-file-manager so I'm using `fm-nvim with a custom vifm-open-function to open up vifm in nvim.

For "neighbour" files of the current buffer I normally use :NeoTreeReveal if the file is in the main repo. (the current pwd). If not I'll use fm-nvim with ranger. I can use the Ranger %:p:h command to open the folder of the current folder in ranger without changing the pwd in vim.

I'm using vifm as my file manager which is pretty awesome in combination with (n)vim which is easy possible thanks to fm-nvim.

I've recently released a Neovim plugin that opens a floating window with 1/5 terminal file managers called fm-nvim. It's quite small and fast as the entire plugin is written in less than 100 lines of Lua.

EDIT: I found what I was looking for https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim and https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-file-browser.nvim

I'm aware of telescope-file-browser.nvim, but it seems to only search through one directory at a time and not the full project at once.

for reference, what I want it to look like is what they have on the github repo for nvim-telescope/telescope-file-browser.nvim.

an alternative is to use telescope-file browser, which simply allows you to interactively go up/down a directory: https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-file-browser.nvim

I use a lot of key bindings for telescope. A regular use of mine is to open telescope file browser with `` without a previewer, and `` (shift) with previewer. So I have `Layer + f` that sends `` on tap and `` on double tap. Same goes for telescope grep string, but a different config: `` does a live grep in relative folder and `` does a global live grep. Very useful when navigating big monorepos. This is how the layer looks:

There's telescope-file-browser.nvim
