Installation

This plugin requires Telescope

use { 'blaineventurine/sessionable',
      requires = { 'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim' },
    }

Config

Defaults:

{
  auto_save_enabled = true,
  enable_last_session = false,
  log_level = "info",
  session_dir = vim.fn.stdpath("config") .. "/sessions/",
  {hook_name}_cmds = {"{hook_command1}", "{hook_command2}"}
}

To modify defaults, pass them into

require("sessionable").setup({
  log_level = "debug"
})

To add the current session name (if any) to Feline

components.active[3][11] = {
  provider = function()
    return require('sessionable').session_name
  end,
  hl = {
    fg = 'green',
    bg = 'bg',
  },
  right_sep = ' ',
  left_sep = ' '
}

Hooks

Command hooks exist in the format: {hook_name}

{pre_save}: executes before a session is saved {post_save}: executes after a session is saved {pre_restore}: executs before a session is restored {post_restore}: executs after a session is restored {pre_delete}: executs before a session is deleted {post_delete}: executs after a session is deleted

require('sessionable').setup {
    {hook_name}_cmds = {"{hook_command1}", "{hook_command2}"}
}

Hooks can also be lua functions

For example to update the directory of the session in nvim-tree:

local function restore_nvim_tree()
    local nvim_tree = require('nvim-tree')
    nvim_tree.change_dir(vim.fn.getcwd())
    nvim_tree.refresh()
end

require('sessionable').setup {
    {hook_name}_cmds = {"{vim_cmd_1}", restore_nvim_tree, "{vim_cmd_2}"}
}
