• All actions now keep list of detected sessions up to date.

mini.splitjoin

Introduction of a new module.

mini.surround

• FEATURE: Add respect_selection_type option which, when enabled, makes adding and deleting surrounding respect selection type:
  • Linewise adding places surrounding parts on separate lines while indenting surrounded lines once.
  • Deleting surrounding which looks like a result of linewise adding will act to revert it: delete lines with surrounding parts and dedent surrounded lines once.
  • Blockwise adding places surrounding parts on whole edges, not only start and end of selection.

Version 0.7.0

• Start dual distribution. Every module is now distributed both as part of 'mini.nvim' library and as standalone plugin (in separate git repository).

Introduction of a new module.

mini.completion

• BREAKING: MiniCompletion.config.window_dimensions is renamed to MiniCompletion.config.window to be able to handle more general configuration.
• FEATURE: Add MiniCompletion.config.window.info.border and MiniCompletion.config.window.signature.border which can be used to define border of info and signature floating windows respectively.

mini.indentscope

• BREAKING: MiniIndentscopePrefix is now not used (deprecated). It was initially introduced as a way to properly show scope indicator on empty lines. It had a drawback of overshadowing 'listchars' symbols (see #125) and vertical guides from 'lukas-reineke/indent-blankline.nvim'. As the other implementation approach was found by @mivort (see #161), MiniIndentscopePrefix is no longer needed and no overshadowing is done.
• BREAKING: MiniIndentscope.gen_animation is now a table (for consistency with other gen_* functions in 'mini.nvim'). See "Migrate from function type" section of :h MiniIndentscope.gen_animation. Calling it as function will be available until next release.

mini.misc

• FEATURE: Add MiniMisc.setup_auto_root() and MiniMisc.find_root() for root finding functionality. NOTE: requires Neovim>=0.8.
• FEATURE: Add MiniMisc.setup_restore_cursor() for automatically restoring latest cursor position on file reopen. By @cryptomilk, PR #198.

mini.move

Introduction of new module.

Version 0.6.0

• Stop official support of Neovim 0.5.
• Make all messages use colors and not cause hit-enter-prompt.

mini.align

Introduction of new module.

mini.base16

• FEATURE: Add support for many plugin integrations.
• FEATURE: Implement MiniBase16.config.plugins for configuring plugin integrations.
• BREAKING: Change some 'mini.nvim' highlights:
  • MiniCompletionActiveParameter now highlights with background instead of underline.
  • MiniJump2dSpot now explicitly defined to use plugin's palette.
  • MiniStarterItemPrefix and MiniStarterQuery are now bold for better visibility.
• BREAKING: Update highlight for changed git diff to be more visible and to comply more with general guidelines.

mini.jump

• BREAKING: Allow cursor to be positioned past the end of previous/current line (#113).

mini.map

Introduction of new module.

mini.starter

• Item evaluation is now prepended with query reset, as it is rarely needed any more (#105).
• All hooks are now called with (content, buf_id) signature allowing them properly use current window layout.

mini.surround

• BREAKING FEATURE: update 'mini.surround' to share as much with 'mini.ai' as possible. This provides more integrated experience while enabling more useful features. Details:
  • Custom surrounding specification for input action has changed. Instead of { find = <string>, extract = <string> } it is now { <function or composed pattern> }. Previous format will work until the next release. See more in help file.
  • Algorithm for finding surrounding is now more powerful. It allows searching for more complex surroundings (via composed patterns or array of region pairs) and respects v:count.
  • Multiline input and output surroundings are now supported.
  • Opening brackets ((, [, {, <) now include whitespace in surrounding: input surrounding selects all inner edge whitespace, output surrounding is padded with single space.
  • Surrounding identifier i ("interactive") is soft deprecated in favor of ? ("user prompt").
  • New surrounding aliases:
    • b for "brackets". Input - any of balanced (), [] {}. Output - ().
    • q for "quotes". Input - any of ", ', `. Output - "".
  • Three new search methods 'prev', 'next', and 'nearest' for finding non-covering previous and next surrounding.
• BREAKING FEATURE: Implement "last"/"next" extended mappings which force 'prev' or 'next' search method. Controlled with config.mappings.suffix_last and config.mappings.suffix_nextrespectively. This also means that custom surroundings with identifier equal to "last"/"next" mappings suffixes (defaults to 'l' and 'n') will work only with long enough delay after typing action mapping.
• FEATURE: Implement MiniSurround.gen_spec with generators of common surrounding specifications (like MiniSurround.gen_spec.input.treesitter for tree-sitter based input surrounding).

Version 0.5.0

• Update all tests to use new 'mini.test' module.
• FEATURE: Implement buffer local configuration. This is done with vim.b.mini*_config buffer variables.
• Add new minicyan color scheme.

mini.ai

mini.sessions

• FEATURE: Hooks are now called with active session data as argument.

mini.starter

• FEATURE: Now it is possible to open multiple Starter buffers at the same time (#82). This comes with several changes which won't affect most users:
  • BREAKING: MiniStarter.content is deprecated. Use MiniStarter.get_content().
  • All functions dealing with Starter buffer now have buf_id as argument (no breaking behavior).

mini.statusline

• FEATURE: Implement config.use_icons which controls whether to use icons by default.

• FEATURE: Implement MiniJump.state: table with useful model-related information.

• Update process of querying target symbol: show help message after delay, allow <C-c> to stop selecting target.

mini.jump2d

Introduction of new module.

mini.pairs

• Create mappings for <BS> and <CR> in certain mode only after some pair is registered in that mode.

mini.sessions

• FEATURE: Implement MiniSessions.select() to select session interactively and perform action on it.
• FEATURE: Implement config.hooks to execute hook functions before and after successful action.
• BREAKING: All feedback about incorrect behavior is now an error instead of message notifications.

mini.starter

• FEATURE: Implement MiniSurround.user_input().
• BREAKING: Deprecate config.funname_pattern option in favor of manually modifying f surrounding.
• BREAKING: Always move cursor to the right of left surrounding in add(), delete(), and replace() (instead of moving only if it was on the same line as left surrounding).
• Update process of getting user input: allow <C-c> to cancel and make empty string a valid input.

mini.tabline

  • Implement MiniPairs.map(), MiniPairs.map_buf(), MiniPairs.unmap(), MiniPairs.unmap_buf() to (un)make mappings for pairs which automatically register them for <BS> and <CR>. Note, that this has a minor break of previous behavior: now MiniPairs.bs() and MiniPairs.cr() don't have any input argument. But default behavior didn't change.
  • Allow setting global pair mappings inside config of MiniPairs.setup().

mini.sessions

Introduction of new module.
