INTRO *vimtex-intro*
|vimtex| provides functionality for editing LaTeX documents. The goal has
been to create a minimalistic and functional plugin that is easy to customize
and evolve. Most of the functionality provided is turned on by default, but
the user may turn off features that are not desired.
Note that vim itself ships with syntax hightlighting for LaTeX documents,
please see |ft-tex-plugin| and |ft-tex-syntax|. |vimtex| does not provide its
own syntax highlighting, but does expand it a little bit.
2015-03-07 17:02:15 -05:00
*vimtex-requirements*
Some of the functionalities of |vimtex| has certain requirements:
|vimtex-latexmk|
Requires that the user has installed both `latexmk` and `pgrep`. If these
are not available, then the functionalities provided by
|vimtex-latexmk| will not be available.
If you use Vim under a terminal in Linux or MacOS, then Vim must be
started as a command server with the command line option `--servername`,
e.g. `vim --servername VIM`. For different ways of ensuring this, see:
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Enable_servername_capability_in_vim/xterm
|vimtex-completion|
The function |vimtex#complete#bibtex| requires `bibtex` and `kpsewhich` to
parse bib files for bibliography completion.
==============================================================================
MAIN INTERFACE *vimtex-main*
The |vimtex| interface is based on the |autoload| feature of vim. For each
new latex buffer, the function *vimtex#init* initializes the variables and
functionalities based on the desired options |vimtex-options|. The first
run performs some global initialization, which is mainly to define
autocommands. Other functionality is provided by additional autoloaded
scripts, such as |vimtex-latexmk|. Every additional script should have an
initialization script that sets default mappings, creates autocommands and
performs other necessary initialization. This initialization script is then
called from |vimtex#init|.
The main interface provides some basic functionality. |vimtex#help| lists all
`vimtex` mappings defined for the current buffer, by default mapped to
'<localleader>lh'. If the default mappings are used, |vimtex#help| will
display them. |vimtex#info| echoes the contents of |g:vimtex#data| and
|b:vimtex|. This is useful mainly for debugging. Finally, |vimtex#reinit|
clears the current data in |g:vimtex#data| and |b:vimtex|, stops running
`latexmk` processes |vimtex#latexmk#stop_all|, and then performs a new
initialization with |vimtex#init|.
For each latex project that is opened, a |Dictionary| is created and added to
the list |g:vimtex#data|. The dictionary is initialized with information tied
to the current project, mainly the different associated file names. In
addition, a dictionary is created for every buffer |b:vimtex|. This contains
data that is specific to the current buffer, most importantly it contains the
ID of the main latex project. This combination of local and global data
enables |vimtex| to work properly for multi-file latex projects. It also
allows the editing of different latex projects simultaneously in different
buffers.
*g:vimtex#data*
A |List| of |Dictionaries|, each containing data specific to a given latex
project. The ID of a latex project is the index of its dictionary in the list.
An example of a dictionary is given here: >
{
'pid': 0,
'name': 'main',
'base': 'main.tex',
'root': '/some/path',
'tex': '/some/path/main.tex',
'aux': function('202'),
'log': function('203'),
'out': function('204'),
}
Which entries are present in a given dictionary depends on the current
settings. For example, the entry `pid` is only available if
|vimtex-latexmk| is enabled |g:vimtex_latexmk_enabled|. Note that some of
the file entries are functions. The functions are used to find the files when
necessary, in case they do not exist when the latex file is opened. All
defined dictionaries can be printed with the function |vimtex#info|, by default
mapped to '<localleader>li'.
*b:vimtex*
For each buffer, |vimtex| defines a |Dictionary| that contains buffer local
information. An example of such a dictionary is: >
{
'id': 0,
'fold_sections': [],
}
The most important entry is `id`, which is the index of the corresponding
entry in the list of latex projects |g:vimtex#data|. Other entries may also be
exist, such as `fold_sections`. The dictionary can be printed with the
function |vimtex#info|, by default mapped to '<localleader>li'.
Functions:
|vimtex#info|
|vimtex#help|
|vimtex#reinit|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Support for multi-file projects:~
*vimtex-multi-file*
*tex-root*
|vimtex| supports multi-file documents in the sense that the plugin
automatically detects the root file of the project. This detection is based
on a recursive search for files that include the current tex file, until
a main file is recognized. A file is assumed to be the main file if it has
the `\begin{document}` line. Files are assumed to live in the same folder or
a parent folder of the current file. This should work in most cases, but it
may fail if for instance the project structure is something like this: >
path1/main.tex
path2/chapter.tex
That is, the main file detection will not work for the file `chapter.tex`,
because the main file does not live in the same folder or a parent folder.
It is also possible to specify the main TeX file with a comment in one of the
first five lines of the current file similar to this: >
%! TEX root = my-main.tex
==============================================================================
DEFAULT MAPPINGS *vimtex-mappings*
The default mappings for |vimtex| are given below. See 'map-listing' for
an explanation of the format. The function |vimtex#help| is provided for
convenience to list all the defined mappings, and it is by default mapped to
'<localleader>lh'. The default mappings may be disabled with the option
|g:vimtex_mappings_enabled|, if the user wishes to create his/her own mappings.

<
*g:vimtex_quickfix_ignored_warnings*
List of warning messages that should be ignored. By default, the list is
empty, thus no warnings are ignored. The list is a list of strings. Any
LaTeX warning that contains a string in the list will be ignored. To ignore
some common LaTeX warnings, try the following setting: >
let g:vimtex_quickfix_ignored_warnings = [
\ 'Underfull',
\ 'Overfull',
\ 'specifier changed to',
\ ]
<
*g:vimtex_quickfix_mode*
This option controls the behaviour of the quickfix window in case errors
and/or warnings are found. The recognized options are:
Value Effect ~
0 The quickfix window is never opened automatically.
1 The quickfix window is opened automatically when there are errors,
and it becomes the active window.
2 The quickfix window is opened automatically when there are errors,
but it does not become the active window.
The default value is: >
let g:vimtex_quickfix_mode = 2
<
*g:vimtex_quickfix_open_on_warning*
If it is 0, then the quickfix window will only be opened on errors or when
it is forced open. >
let g:vimtex_quickfix_open_on_warning = 1
<
*g:vimtex_mappings_enabled*
Whether to load the default mappings. If this is set to 0, then no mappings
will be defined. Since all of the functionality is available as functions,
this allows the user to define his or her own mappings. >
let g:vimtex_mappings_enabled= 1
<
*g:vimtex_motion_enabled*
Whether to enable the motion interface. If it is disabled, then neither the
default mappings nor the autocommands that enable highlighting of matching
parens will be defined. >
let g:vimtex_motion_enabled = 1
<
*g:vimtex_motion_matchparen*
Enable highlighting of matching parens. This gives better support for LaTeX,
but disables the builtin |matchparen|. >
let g:vimtex_motion_matchparen = 1
<
*g:vimtex_toc_enabled*
2015-03-21 11:39:51 -04:00

2015-03-07 17:02:15 -05:00
not be created. >
let g:vimtex_toc_enabled = 1
<
*g:vimtex_toc_fold*
2015-03-21 11:39:51 -04:00
Turn on folding of ToC entries. >

|vimtex| provides an 'omnifunc' for omni completion, see |compl-omni| and
|vimtex#complete#omnifunc|. The function is enabled by default, but may be
disabled with |g:vimtex_complete_enabled|. Omni completion is accessible with
|i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O|.
The omni function completes labels and citations. The completion candidates
are gathered with the functions |vimtex#complete#labels| and
|vimtex#complete#bibtex|. If |g:vimtex_complete_close_braces| is set to 1, then
the completion includes closing braces.
Associated settings:
|g:vimtex_complete_enabled|
|g:vimtex_complete_patterns.ref|
|g:vimtex_complete_patterns.bib|
|g:vimtex_complete_close_braces|
|g:vimtex_complete_recursive_bib|
Functions:
|vimtex#complete#omnifunc|
|vimtex#complete#labels|
|vimtex#complete#bibtex|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Complete labels~
Label completion is triggered by '\ref{' commands as defined with
|g:vimtex_complete_patterns.ref|. The completion parses every relevant aux
file to gather the completion candidates. This is important to note, because
it means that the completion only works when the LaTeX document has been
compiled.
As an example: >
\ref{sec:<CTRL-X><CTRL-O>
offers a list of all matching labels, with their associated value and page
number. The label completion matches:
1. labels: >
\ref{sec:<CTRL-X><CTRL-O>
< 2. numbers: >
\eqref{2<CTRL-X><CTRL-O>
< 3. labels and numbers together (separated by whitespace): >
\eqref{eq 2<CTRL-X><CTRL-O>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Complete citations~
Citation completion is triggered by '\cite{' commands as defined with
|g:vimtex_complete_patterns.bib|. The completion parses included bibliography
files (`*.bib`) and `thebibliography` environments to gather the completion
candidates.
As an example, assume that a bibliography file is included with the following
entry: >
@book { knuth1981,
author = "Donald E. Knuth",
title = "Seminumerical Algorithms",
publisher = "Addison-Wesley",
year = "1981" }
Then the bibliography key `knuth1981` will be completed with e.g.: >
\cite{Knuth 1981<CTRL-X><CTRL-O>
\cite{algo<CTRL-X><CTRL-O>
\cite{Don.*Knuth<CTRL-X><CTRL-O>
In particular, note that regular expressions (or vim patterns) can be used
after '\cite{' to search for candidates.
==============================================================================
FOLDING *vimtex-folding*
|vimtex| can fold texts according to LaTeX structure (part, chapter, section
and subsection). Folding is turned on by default, but it can be disabled if
desired |g:vimtex_fold_enabled|.
When folding is turned on and a LaTeX document is opened, the document is
parsed once in order to define the highest fold level based on which parts
(such as frontmatter, backmatter, and appendix) and section types (chapter,
section, etc.) are present. If the document has been edited and a new fold
level is required (or has become redundant), then |vimtex#fold#refresh| can be
used to refresh the fold level settings. This function is mapped by default
to 'zx'.
Associated settings:
|g:vimtex_fold_enabled|
|g:vimtex_fold_automatic|
|g:vimtex_fold_preamble|
|g:vimtex_fold_parts|
|g:vimtex_fold_sections|
|g:vimtex_fold_envs|
Functions:
|vimtex#fold#level|
|vimtex#fold#text|
|vimtex#fold#refresh|
==============================================================================
INDENTATION *vimtex-indent*
The official indentation function is pretty good and allows for some
customization. However, I am not quite satisfied, so I wrote my own
indentation function that is not customizable, but that I think is better. It
is enabled by default, but may be disabled if desired.
*vimtex-bib-indent*
I've also written an indentation file for bibliography files (`.bib` files).

==============================================================================
LATEXMK *vimtex-latexmk*
|vimtex| provides a basic interface to `latexmk` for compilation. The
interface may be disabled with |g:vimtex_latexmk_enabled|. The default
mappings are: >
nnoremap <localleader>ll :call vimtex#latexmk#toggle()<cr>
nnoremap <localleader>lk :call vimtex#latexmk#stop()<cr>
nnoremap <localleader>lK :call vimtex#latexmk#stop_all()<cr>
2015-03-10 02:45:15 -04:00
nnoremap <localleader>le :call vimtex#latexmk#errors()<cr>
2015-03-07 17:02:15 -05:00
nnoremap <localleader>lo :call vimtex#latexmk#output()<cr>
nnoremap <localleader>lg :call vimtex#latexmk#status(0)<cr>
nnoremap <localleader>lG :call vimtex#latexmk#status(1)<cr>
nnoremap <localleader>lc :call vimtex#latexmk#clean(0)<cr>
nnoremap <localleader>lC :call vimtex#latexmk#clean(1)<cr>
Compilation is started with |vimtex#latexmk#compile| or may be toggled by
|vimtex#latexmk#toggle|. The default behaviour uses preview continuous mode of
`latexmk`, which may be disabled with |g:vimtex_latexmk_continuous|. If it is
disabled, then the option |g:vimtex_latexmk_background| may be used to decide
if single shot compilation should run in the foreground or the background.
Single shot compilation may always be issued with the function
|vimtex#latexmk#compile_singleshot|. This function ignores the
|g:vimtex_latexmk_background|` setting, though, and will by default hide the
output from the `latexmk` command. The function is available through the
command |VimtexCompileSS|, and if desired one may create a custom mapping
such as >
nnoremap <localleader>ls :VimtexCompileSS<cr>
A banged version of the command also exists, which will provide a more verbose
output.
If vim is compiled with the |+clientserver| option and if
|g:vimtex_latexmk_callback| is enabled, then compilation errors are parsed
automatically. This is done by utilizing the tricks explained in
|vimtex-latexmk-tricks|. Note however that this only works for continuous
compilation mode.
To check for and view errors in the quickfix window, use
|vimtex#latexmk#errors|. To check if background compilation is running, use
|vimtex#latexmk#status|.
Associated settings:
|g:vimtex_latexmk_enabled|
|g:vimtex_latexmk_callback|
|g:vimtex_latexmk_autojump|
|g:vimtex_latexmk_continuous|
|g:vimtex_latexmk_background|
|g:vimtex_latexmk_options|
Functions:
|vimtex#latexmk#clean|
|vimtex#latexmk#compile|
|vimtex#latexmk#compile_singleshot|
|vimtex#latexmk#errors|
|vimtex#latexmk#lacheck|
|vimtex#latexmk#output|
|vimtex#latexmk#status|
|vimtex#latexmk#stop|
|vimtex#latexmk#stop_all|
|vimtex#latexmk#toggle|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*vimtex-latexmk-tricks*
Latexmk tricks~
`latexmk` allows to set options through a configuration file
`$HOME/.latexmkrc`. A particular set of options are very convenient for
a good coupling between |vimtex| and `latexmk`: `$..._cmd`, where `...`
refers to either `compiling`, `success`, or `failure`. These options can be
used to specify commands that are run by `latexmk` before and after
a compilation run. For instance, one may use these options: >
$compiling_cmd = "xdotool search --name \"%D\" " .
"set_window --name \"%D compiling...\"";
$success_cmd = "xdotool search --name \"%D\" " .
"set_window --name \"%D OK\"; " .
"gvim --remote-expr 'vimtex#latexmk#callback(1)'";
$failure_cmd = "xdotool search --name \"%D\" " .
"set_window --name \"%D FAILURE\"; " .
"gvim --remote-expr 'vimtex#latexmk#callback(0)'";
Here `xdotool` (http://www.semicomplete.com/projects/xdotool/) is used to
change the title of the pdf viewer during and after compilation. In addition,
|vimtex#latexmk#errors| is called through the |clientserver| after each run to
either open the quickfix window when there are errors/warnings, or to close the
quickfix window in case all errors/warnings are gone.
The latter trick is utilized in |vimtex| to automatically run the callback
commands if vim has the option |+clientserver|, and if the option
|g:vimtex_latexmk_callback| is enabled. The command that is used by `latexmk`
is then on the following form: >
gvim --servername v:servername --remote-expr 'vimtex#latexmk#callback(0)'
This command is then appended to the existing `$success_cmd` and
`$failure_cmd`. Note that if the existing commands are not empty, then they
must end with a semicolon in order to allow |vimtex| to append safely.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*vimtex-latexmk-lacheck*
Lacheck~
After compilation of a LaTeX document, the log file will contain errors that
are parsed by |vimtex| as explained above. However, there are a syntax
checkers for LaTeX, and we here provide a simple interface to `lacheck` for
checking your LaTeX manuscript for errors.
Your manuscript may be checked using `lacheck` with the command `VimtexLacheck`.
==============================================================================
VIEW *vimtex-view*
|vimtex| provides functions for viewing the compiled documents. A command
and a mapping is defined for the multipurpose `view` function, which calls the
chosen view method defined by |g:vimtex_view_method|.
Associated settings:
|g:vimtex_view_enabled|
|g:vimtex_view_general_viewer|
|g:vimtex_view_general_options|
|g:vimtex_view_method|
|g:vimtex_view_mupdf_options|
|g:vimtex_view_okular_options|
|g:vimtex_view_sumatrapdf_options|
Functions:
|vimtex#view#general|
|vimtex#view#mupdf|
|vimtex#view#mupdf_rsearch|
|vimtex#view#okular|
|vimtex#view#sumatrapdf|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYNCTEX SUPPORT *vimtex-synctex*
Synctex is a tool that enables synchronization of the text editor position and
the pdf viewer position. The tool may be used to add mappings in vim to go to
the current position in the compiled pdf document (forward search), and also
to go from a specific position in the pdf file to the corresponding position
in vim (inverse/backward search).
To make synctex work, one must enable synctex manually by adding the line >
$pdflatex = 'pdflatex -synctex=1 %O %S';
to `~/.latexmkrc`.
Forward search~
|vimtex| currently supports forward search for a limited set of viewers.
The functionality is enabled by choosing the desired viewer with the
|g:vimtex_view_method| option. The currently supported viewers are:
* MuPDF
* Okular
* SumatraPDF
* Zathura
Backward search~
Backward or inverse search is typially set up inside the specific viewer
through an option named something like "inverse search command-line".
A standard value for the option is: >
gvim --remote-silent +%l "%f"
Backward search is unfortunately not supported by all pdf viewers. The
following is a list of viewers that to my knowledge should support backward
search:
* Okular
* SumatraPDF
* Evince (since version 2.91.3)
* Zathura
Note: Inverse search relies on the |clientserver| functionality of vim. Each
instance of vim runs its own server. The above mentioned standard value
implies the default server name, which might not be the actual name of
the server for the vim instance you are using.
Note: For backward search to work on windows, one must ensure that the folder
that contains `gVim.exe` is in your `%PATH%` environment variable.
MuPDF does not support inverse search. However, by the use of some semi ugly
hacks, we have implemented a command inside vim that simulates the
functionality. The command is |VimtexRSearch|, and is by default mapped to
`<localleader>lr` if MuPDF is chosen as the viewer. The command will go to the
line in the tex project that corresponds to the FIRST line on the page that is
open in MuPDF.
For SumatraPDF one may set the inverse search setting from vim directly by
adding some command line options as shown below. The advantage of doing this
is that one may specify the vim server name explicitly, which means that the
backward search will also work as expected if one has several vim instances
running. To enable this, use the general viewer and: >
let g:vimtex_view_general_viewer='SumatraPDF '
\ . '-reuse-instance -inverse-search '
\ . '"gvim --servername '.v:servername.' --remote-send \"^<C-\^>^<C-n^>'
\ . ':drop \%f^<CR^>:\%l^<CR^>:normal\! zzzv^<CR^>'
\ . ':execute ''drop ''.fnameescape(''\%f'')^<CR^>'
\ . ':\%l^<CR^>:normal\! zzzv^<CR^>'
\ . ':call remote_foreground('''.v:servername.''')^<CR^>\""'
==============================================================================
MOTION *vimtex-motion*
|vimtex| provides some functions that can be used to give improved motions
and text objects. For instance, |vimtex-motion| enables highlighting of
matching parens or tags (such as begin/end structures). The functionality is
enabled by default, but may be disabled if desired.
Associated settings:
|g:vimtex_motion_enabled|
|g:vimtex_motion_matchparen|
Functions:
|vimtex#motion#find_matching_pair|
|vimtex#motion#next_section|
|vimtex#motion#sel_delimiter|
|vimtex#motion#sel_environment|
|vimtex#motion#sel_inline_math|
==============================================================================
CHANGE *vimtex-change*
|vimtex| provides mappings that are inspired by `surround.vim`
(https://github.com/tpope/vim-surround) (if it is installed, see
|surround.txt|). These mappings are:
`cse` - change surrounding environment
`dse` - delete surrounding environment
`csc` - change surrounding command
`dsc` - delete surrounding command
Note: This mappings is only available if `surround.vim` is also
available.
`tsd` - toggle delimiters (add/remove `\left` and `\right`)
`tse` - toggle starred environment
An environment that has been opened but not closed may be closed by the
mapping `]]`.
In addition, some functionality is provided to wrap the current selection.
This is not mapped to anything by default.
For additional coupling with `surround.vim`, one may add the following lines
to ones `.vimrc` file to obtain corresonding `yse` and `ysc` mappings. >
augroup latexSurround
autocmd!
autocmd FileType tex call s:latexSurround()
augroup END
function! s:latexSurround()
let b:surround_{char2nr("e")} = "\\begin{\1environment: \1}\n\t\r\n\\end{\1\1}"

possibly send some keys to MuPDF as specified in |g:vimtex_view_mupdf_send_keys|.
*vimtex#view#mupdf_rsearch*
Perform a reverse search by use of `xdotool` and `synctex`.
==============================================================================
FAQ *vimtex-faq*
Q: Vim throws error when jumping to file with |gf|.
A: This might be due to the |isfname| setting, which by default contains `{,}`
on windows. |isfname| is a global option, and can therefore not be set by
`vimtex`. Suggested solution is to remove `{,}` from |isfname| by: >
set isfname-={,}

CHANGELOG *vimtex-changelog*
The following changelog only logs important changes, such as changes that
break backwards compatibility. See the git log for the detailed changelog.
*vim-latex-namechange*
2015-03-08: Changed the name to |vimtex|~
The old name `vim-latex` was already used by LaTeX-Suite. I was not aware of
the name clash in the beginning. Due to the rising popularity of this plugin,
it has become clear that such a name clash is very inconvenient. The present
change is therefore very much needed.
The name change is reflected throughout the plugin in the names of commands,
mappings, functions, and options. People should update their `vimrc` settings
accordingly. For instance, every option name should be changed from >
g:latex_... = ...
to >
g:vimtex_... = ...
2014-12-07: Added more general view functionality~
Added new module for view functionality. This allows more complex view
functions (and commands), for instance to do forward (and possibly backwards)
searching through `synctex`. In the first version, I added forward search for
mupdf by use of the `synctex` command and `xdotools`.
The `g:latex_viewer` option has now been deprecated. Instead one should use
|g:vimtex_view_method| and |g:vimtex_view_general_viewer|.
Deprecated option:
*g:latex_viewer*
2014-06-13: Changed some option names~
Some |vimtex| option names were changed in an attempt to make the names
more consistent. These options are listed here for reference:
*g:latex_errorformat_ignore_warnings*
*g:latex_errorformat_show_warnings*
*g:latex_latexmk_autojump*
*g:latex_latexmk_quickfix*
The new names are, respectively:
|g:vimtex_quickfix_ignored_warnings|
|g:vimtex_quickfix_ignore_all_warnings|
|g:vimtex_quickfix_autojump|
|g:vimtex_quickfix_mode|
2013-10-05: First public release~
