Recommendations for a general fzf --preview implementation that can show images with ueberzug?

• pistol

  3 293 6.2 Go

  General purpose file previewer designed for Ranger, Lf to make scope.sh redundant

I was googling around for a general-purpose command or script that can be used with fzf's --preview to give a sensible preview of different filetypes. There are some (like pistol), but I didn't find any that have an image and PDF preview that works out of the box.

• ytfzf

  84 3,580 7.9 Shell

  A posix script to find and watch youtube videos from the terminal. (Without API)

Ytfzf is a script which is similar to what you said. It shows Yt thumbnails in fzf menu. You can check the code and get the idea, I guess. Its not exactly what you wanted, but I hope it helps for the idea!

• InfluxDB

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• fzf-ueberzogen

  2 16 10.0 Shell

  Discontinued Just a script which allows to use fzf with ueberzug

• clifm

  90 1,261 9.9 C

  The shell-like, command line terminal file manager: simple, fast, extensible, and lightweight as hell.

CliFM includes a plugin (fzfnav) able to preview PDF files, among other file types, that should work as a stand-alone script (though it depends on a second script, BFG.sh, and a little config file, BFG.cfm). It works with fzf and ueberzug.
