# vim-expand-region
|
||
|
|
||
|
## About
|
||
|
[vim-expand-region] is a Vim plugin that allows you to visually select increasingly larger regions of text using the same key combination. It is similar to features from other editors:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Emac's [expand region](https://github.com/magnars/expand-region.el)
|
||
|
- IntelliJ's [syntax aware selection](http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/documentation/tips/#tips_code_editing)
|
||
|
- Eclipse's [select enclosing element](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4264047/intellij-ctrlw-equivalent-shortcut-in-eclipse)

|

|
</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Installation
|
||
|
Install using [Pathogen], [Vundle], [Neobundle], or your favorite Vim package manager.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Quick Start
|
||
|
Press ```+``` to expand the visual selection and ```_``` to shrink it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Mapping
|
||
|
Customize the key mapping if you don't like the default.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
map K <Plug>(expand_region_expand)
|
||
|
map J <Plug>(expand_region_shrink)
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Setting
|
||
|
### Customize selected regions
|
||
|
The plugin uses __your own__ text objects to determine the expansion. You can customize the text objects the plugin knows about with ```g:expand_region_text_objects```.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```vim
|
||
|
" Default settings. (NOTE: Remove comments in dictionary before sourcing)
|
||
|
let g:expand_region_text_objects = {
|
||
|
\ 'iw' :0,
|
||
|
\ 'iW' :0,
|
||
|
\ 'i"' :0,
|
||
|
\ 'i''' :0,
|
||
|
\ 'i]' :1, " Support nesting of square brackets
|
||
|
\ 'ib' :1, " Support nesting of parentheses
|
||
|
\ 'iB' :1, " Support nesting of braces
|
||
|
\ 'il' :0, " 'inside line'. Available through https://github.com/kana/vim-textobj-line
|
||
|
\ 'ip' :0,
|
||
|
\ 'ie' :0, " 'entire file'. Available through https://github.com/kana/vim-textobj-entire
|
||
|
\ }
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can extend the global default dictionary by calling ```expand_region#custom_text_objects```:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```vim
|
||
|
" Extend the global default (NOTE: Remove comments in dictionary before sourcing)
|
||
|
call expand_region#custom_text_objects({
|
||
|
\ "\/\\n\\n\<CR>": 1, " Motions are supported as well. Here's a search motion that finds a blank line
|
||
|
\ 'a]' :1, " Support nesting of 'around' brackets
|
||
|
\ 'ab' :1, " Support nesting of 'around' parentheses
|
||
|
\ 'aB' :1, " Support nesting of 'around' braces
|
||
|
\ 'ii' :0, " 'inside indent'. Available through https://github.com/kana/vim-textobj-indent
|
||
|
\ 'ai' :0, " 'around indent'. Available through https://github.com/kana/vim-textobj-indent
|
||
|
\ })
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can further customize the text objects dictionary on a per filetype basis by defining global variables like ```g:expand_region_text_objects_{ft}```.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```vim
|
||
|
" Use the following setting for ruby. (NOTE: Remove comments in dictionary before sourcing)
|
||
|
let g:expand_region_text_objects_ruby = {
|
||
|
\ 'im' :0, " 'inner method'. Available through https://github.com/vim-ruby/vim-ruby
|
||
|
\ 'am' :0, " 'around method'. Available through https://github.com/vim-ruby/vim-ruby
|
||
|
\ }
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note that this completely replaces the default dictionary. To extend the default on a per filetype basis, you can call ```expand_region#custom_text_objects``` by passing in the filetype in the first argument:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```vim
|
||
|
" Use the global default + the following for ruby
|
||
|
call expand_region#custom_text_objects('ruby', {
|
||
|
\ 'im' :0,
|
||
|
\ 'am' :0,
|
||
|
\ })
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Customize selection mode
|
||
|
By default, after an expansion, the plugin leaves you in visual mode. If your ```selectmode```(h:selectmode)) contains ```cmd```, then the plugin will respect that setting and leave you in select mode. If you don't have ```selectmode``` set, but would like to default the expansion in select mode, you can use the global setting below:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```vim
|
||
|
let g:expand_region_use_select_mode = 1
|
||
|
```
