Share your ~/.ideavimrc

[AlexPl292]

Hi! Here you can share your cool ~/.ideavimrc config or find some new ideas.

Here you can find my personal configuration: https://gist.github.com/AlexPl292/50a3ff4cef1badcbb23436b22cbd3cf4

[leeturner]

Yours looks way more impressing that mine - https://github.com/leeturner/vimrc/blob/master/ideavimrc

I don't think I have seen the set ideastrictmode. What does that do ?

[AlexPl292]

Well, yeah, I guess so, it may catch some issues :)

It's a shame https://towardsdatascience.com/the-essential-ideavim-remaps-291d4cd3971b is behind a paywall now. This what I chose to open the terminal.

nmap <leader>t <Action>(ActivateTerminalToolWindow)

Nothing too scary. Set up defaults/vim-sensible type stuff, enable most of the ideavim extensions and add a few maps to IntelliJ actions.

Cool invert function!

What does :raction do?

[chylex]

Works around being unable to use counts for actions until <Action> is fixed. As mentioned in the comments, it's from my fork.

nice share.

I have updated my .ideavimrc file to #303 (comment), see this new link instead.

I love this thread 😄

Pretty standard, I also replaced vim back/forward with the one from IntellIJ

Hey, does anyone knows how to map Show Context Actions ?

[ddadon10]

Does this works for you? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66527100/which-one-action-in-actionlist-is-ide-keymap-show-context-action#comment117611572_66527100

[q843705423]

:action ShowIntentionActions
My most common command, so I use two enter keys to map it

[gabrielbidula]

Exactly, Thanks a lot!

[megawubs]

Have a look at mine, I'm trying to remap a lot of actions: https://github.com/megawubs/dotfiles/blob/main/dot_ideavimrc#L109

[turuluu]

Oh wow! Mapping CLion actions to vim shortcuts just made my day in a major way.

I've set my <leader> to space bar and use this configuration in CLion: https://gist.github.com/d3rp/a24072e28224725a6e5359d303aba908

[AlexPl292]

What actions do work in CLion, but don't work in PyCharm?

[turuluu]

Scratch that. I responded yesterday that certain actions don't work, but I tried them over now with a fresh start - they do. My bad, maybe some disconfiguration. However, they work. I edited my original message as to not give a wrong impression of what works and what doesn't.

[diocletiann]

How can I map leader+leader to "Search Everywhere" in normal mode? Thanks.

[wangrunlin]

The email tells me：

noremap :action SearchEverywhere

[diocletiann]

Saw the email but nothing came up here. Thanks!

This works: noremap <Leader><Leader> :action SearchEverywhere<CR>

[wangrunlin]

Saw the email but nothing came up here. Thanks!

This works: noremap <Leader><Leader> :action SearchEverywhere<CR>

Yes, that's the right answser.

[OptimusCrime]

Here's my configuration. I have added bits and pieces to the file over time. Still room for improvements, and I find new things to add to it all the time.

[kqvanity]

As much as I want to eagerly read others' configs and expand mine, I was looking for a systematic scalable approach that adheres to Vim grammar. AFAIK SpaceVim managed to do such a thing.

[megawubs]

Look at mine for inspiration: https://github.com/megawubs/dotfiles/blob/main/dot_ideavimrc

[kqvanity]

Thanks.

Instead of posting basic "hello-world" examples, consider sharing something unique about your ideavimrc files.

For example, here’s mine:
ideavimrc.

1. There are Vim plugins that allow selection of any braces with af (a form) commands like: vaf, daf, yif, etc. For instance, the vim-sexp plugin. I wanted the same functionality in IntelliJ IDEA, so I combined Ideavim with liveplugin to achieve this. Here is the liveplugin file and the related part of ideavimrc.

2. I use indent folding to unfold only the parts I need:

This is done by adding:

autocmd Filetype vim set foldmethod=indent

The above is included in my .vimrc, which I reuse between my Neovim and IntelliJ IDEA configs with:

source ~/.vimrc

[dbilici]

https://github.com/dbilici/IdeaVim

The repo includes a detailed README and a link to an article I wrote on Medium about the process. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

[D00mch]

Great example of an ideavimrc. Just one thought: I prefer to have the same mappings across all popular apps (Vim, terminal, IDEA, Chrome). In that regard, <cmd+1> to <cmd+9> are better bindings for switching tabs.
Personally, I move default <cmd+number> to <space+number>. For example, <space+1> opens nerdtree (:action SelectInProjectView).

[dbilici]

Thank you for the feedback! I understand the preference for consistency across different apps. I opted for Ctrl instead of Cmd because I’ve remapped my Caps Lock key to Ctrl, which is easier to reach from the home row. This setup makes it more efficient for me. However, your approach with Cmd and moving the default to <Space+number> is a great idea for those who prefer that setup.

[megawubs]

Awesome example!

[jtonic]

Thanks all for the all impressive shared configuration of the ideavimrc.

One keymap that looks like missing, and made me grab the mouse while altering the ideavimrc configuration, is:

nmap <leader>vr <Action>(IdeaVim.ReloadVimRc.reload)

[D00mch]

I used to do it with: : source ~/.ideavimrc. Didn't know thre is an action IdeaVim.ReloadVimRc.reload.

[lost22git]

I used to do it with: Ctrl+Shift-o. Didn't know thre is an action IdeaVim.ReloadVimRc.reload. ;)

[sixdog06]

This is mine: https://github.com/sixdog06/vimrc/blob/main/ideavim
Only use which-key, easy-motion, NERDTree as plugin now.

[cncsl]

here is mine: https://github.com/cncsl/dotfiles/blob/main/ideavimrc

I also use Astronvim, so my mappings are very similar to Astronvim.

[piacsek]

Here’s mine: https://github.com/piacsek/dotfiles/blob/master/.ideavimrc

The leader+9 is my favourite and it relies on a custom IDEA plugin I created(https://github.com/piacsek/test-output-selector) to be able to focus on the test runner so I can easily navigate the test output using ideavim bindings.

[magidc]

Here is my IdeaVim config: https://github.com/magidc/dotfiles/blob/master/jetbrains/ideavimrc
It has dozens of mappings grouped by type of actions designed to be easy to remember.
If you are interested, I have also equivalent configurations for Neovim and VSCode that provide the most of the mappings for equivalent functionalities, so you can have a pretty similar usage experience
