neoterm VS vim-slime

I use Vim with neoterm, highly recommend. - guaranteed support on everything with a repl - never creates unexpected windows - every interaction is explicit

At the moment I am planning to write two modules and then start on 'mini.terminals'. I usually prioritize work based on combination of "I have some cool idea about this" and "I don't like what I am currently using". I am using kassio/neoterm for a very long time and it is quite OK for my needs.

Neovim works just fine. I use Neoterm to send-to-repl, here's what my config looks like. Your other options include vlime and slimv. I switched to neoterm because it's simple, explicit, and doesn't create unpredictable windows. Works for any other language just as well.

Using neovim + https://github.com/kassio/neoterm I have a similar, possibly simpler, workflow that doesn't require any other program (especially listening willy nilly with no authentication/authorization whatsoever) other than your normal SQL client running:

* I open a :Term window, in which I run the sql client (i.e. ":Texec sqlite\ foo.sqlite" or ":Texec mysql foo", etc)

I'm using neoterm. I like that I can use the same tech for every language + consistent keybinds. Also Slime might not support a more fringe or outdated lisp distro but a plain old VTY terminal always will.

I've been using Neoterm, coupled with its vim-test strategy, for this

Having gone from a stock vim to a highly modified vim and back again, here are some plugins that I find really boost my productivity:

- neoterm, for opening a REPL in a split buffer and quickly sending chunks of lines to the REPL (https://github.com/kassio/neoterm)

- fzf for faster buffer and file navigation (https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim)

- vim fugitive for good git integration (https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive)

- some other tpope plugins (surround, unimpared, commentary, vinegar)

I found Vlime to be more updated than slimv and give a smoother experience. With time I've switched to bare neoterm which I highly recommend. CL and lisps in general are designed with a text repl in mind, so this is the method that is guaranteed to work on every obscure CL distribution, and also transfer well to any other REPL-based languages.

I start terminal inside of neovim. It works really well. In this terminal, you can use gf (goto file) keybindigs, etc. It works especially well with this plugin: https://github.com/kassio/neoterm

Workflow is basically to open two windows (left with code, right with terminal) and send code from left window to right with a help of kassio/neoterm.

you can have a REPL in nvim/vim/tmux/screen/another terminal/or any other window , and send regions from your vim buffer to that repl

For vim users, check out vim-slime[1]. It's really changed my workflow! It can work for any language that uses a REPL, including bash/shell. Combined with tmux, it is an amazing and (in hindsight) obvious tool. I honestly can't imagine myself going back to not having it now.

For splitting the terminal you could try either toggleterm or tmux. If you want to send things from one tmux pane to another, then you can use slime. For a toggle-able filetree, you can use nvim tree.

I use vim-slime. It works really well in tmux. https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime. Just blocks of code as cells

This is yet another plugin to capture text from the current buffer and send it to a tmux pane. I was using https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime previously, and wished I could just set sensible defaults for where to send text. Also, I wanted to create my first Neovim plugin! I have to say, after writing a bit of Vimscript in the past, the Neovim Lua API makes me a much happier camper.

I use slime (which sends code to tmux panes), tmux (of course) and ipython for this. For example, the code I sent to ipython was with a simple keybinding ...

If I understand correctly, what you need is a combination of vim, tmux, ipython and vim-slime.

REPL??? Do you have a very-easy-to-use way of running and testing your code? From vim-slime to nvim sniprun to autocommands with the built in terminal, to an external repl like ptpython (for python obviously). iron.nvim and conjure are two other neovim repl plugins. There are many ways of running the code that you're working on, and having something that makes this really easy for you is pretty essential. (sometimes I use inotifytools on linux to literally just run the script every time I save it.)

For the record/list, there's also: - https://github.com/hkupty/iron.nvim and - https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime

However, if you're coding in an interpreted language like python, R, bash, etc., then there is one plugin which you are likely to find helpful. That's vim-slime.
