project.nvim VS telescope-project.nvim

Here is what I have searched: 1. https://github.com/ahmedkhalf/project.nvim/tree/main : plug manage already exist projects, not create 2. https://neovim.io/doc/user/lsp.html : too complicated 3. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NL8D8EkphUw&ab_channel=JoseanMartinez : basic tutorial 4. https://www.reddit.com/r/neovim/comments/ysg4wb/lsp_action_on_multiple_files/ : Mentioned use quickfix, but seems too be a workaround. Not a nice solution.

If someone is interested on this, there is an issue for a feature: https://github.com/ahmedkhalf/project.nvim/issues/73

You can use one of the "rooter" plugins like this one to dynamically change your working directory: https://github.com/ahmedkhalf/project.nvim

https://github.com/ahmedkhalf/project.nvim I have never used this but it seems to involve defining "projects", and any time you enter a project, whatever settings you require (such as current working directory) will get set up for you.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but projects.nvim automatically changes your pwd in nvim. If you then use telescope's find_files and to search in the pwd, you basically get project-scoped searches. https://github.com/ahmedkhalf/project.nvim

This works very well: https://github.com/ahmedkhalf/project.nvim

Maybe you have ahmedkhalf/project.nvim setup. In this case, use `manual_mode` as indicated in the readme https://github.com/ahmedkhalf/project.nvim. It worked for me

Not sure what you mean by that. Perhaps your looking for a fuzzy finder. I use telescope for most of this. It can be used to find any file in your project and there's extensions for pulling up projects

project.nvim

Sharing a lightweight plugin I wrote yesterday which provides some functions for accessing previously used current working directories. I know that this is similar to some other "workspace" / "project" plugins which already exist, so I've pasted the motivation section from the README. >I work in a large monorepo and change my working directory depending on what part of the codebase I'm looking at to give my LSP (gopls) a chance and to improve the usefulness of fuzzy finding files. I want to change the current working directory back to a previously used one without having to configure a "project" or "workspace" beforehand. This requirement is not satisfied (as far as I can tell) by existing similar plugins: > - project.nvim > - telescope-project.nvim > - workspaces.nvim. > - neovim-session-manager > olddirs.nvim is very lightweight and doesn't provide any niceties (out of the box) like some of the above plugins, it's literally just :oldfiles for directories. > \ I say "out of the box" since some features like the searching or browsing of files inside a previous directory can be implemented by adding actions to the olddirs.nvim Telescope picker.

Projects are handle by the telescope-project plugin (https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-project.nvim) Does is change when you open folder by its name ? With “lvim .” ? With just “lvim” ?

I found this plugin for telescope that does all of the above, except that it requires a redundant step where even though I'm inside a project, I still have to select the project before I can search / grep inside. Basically, I want to create a mapping that allows me to search inside the project without having to always select the project that I am in (it should be able to detect that the file from which I am searching belongs to such-and-such project and so can instantly search from within that project).

This seems to be a https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-project.nvim

Few months ago I tried https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope-project.nvim but it does not restore windows layout (seem to only cd into project dir). Are there any other session managers that support features listed above?

Anyhow, I started clearing the last requirements standing by installing telescope-project.nvim and todo-comments.nvim. They were a convenient choice, as both extend the already mentioned Telescope plugin. Seamless terminal integration was possibly the feature I was looking for the most. As I hoped, Neovim offers transparent terminal emulation out of the box, making to open a terminal buffer feel like a first class operation.

To be fair, there is telescope-project, which almost does what I'm looking for. The only drawback for me is, that I want a command, that I can call with a single keystroke. telescope-project always shows a list of all registered projects and you have to select the first one, which adds friction to the editing-flow.
