Full path fuzzy file finder with an intuitive interface. Written in pure
|
||
Vimscript. Has full support for Vim’s regexp as search pattern, and more.
|
||
|
||
![ctrlp][1]
|
||
![ctrlp file name mode, match window focused][2]
|
||
|
||
## Basic Usage
|
||
|
||
* Press `<c-p>` or run `:CtrlP` to invoke CtrlP.
|
||
* Use `*` `?` `^` `+` or `|` in the prompt to submit the string as a Vim’s
|
||
regexp pattern. Or press `<c-r>` to switch to full regexp mode.
|
||
* Ever remember only the file name but not where it is? Press `<c-d>` while in
|
||
the prompt to switch to file name only search. Press `<c-d>` again to switch
|
||
back to full path search.
|
||
* End the input string with a colon `:` followed by a number to jump to that
|
||
line in the selected file.
|
||
e.g. `abc:45` to open the file matched the pattern `abc` and jump to
|
||
line 45.
|
||
* Press `<c-f>` to switch to find buffer mode. Or run `:CtrlPBuffer`.
|
||
|
||
## Basic Options
|
||
|
||
* Change the mapping to invoke CtrlP with:
|
||
```vim
|
||
let g:ctrlp_map = '<c-p>'
|
||
```
|
||
* When starting up the prompt, automatically set the working directory to:
|
||
1 - the parent directory of the current file.
|
||
2 - the nearest ancestor that contains one of these directories/files:
|
||
.git/
|
||
.hg/
|
||
.bzr/
|
||
_darcs/
|
||
root.dir
|
||
.vimprojects
|
||
0 - don’t manage working directory.
|
||
```vim
|
||
let g:ctrlp_working_path_mode = 1
|
||
```
|
||
* You can also use the set-working-directory functionality outside of CtrlP by
|
||
adding the following line to your vimrc; the parameter is the same (1, 2 and 0):
|
||
```vim
|
||
au BufEnter * cal ctrlp#SetWorkingPath(2)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
