## 📃 Introduction

A Neovim plugin hiding your colorcolumn when unneeded.

## ⚙️ Features

The colorcolumn is hidden as default, but it appears after one of lines in the
scope exceeds the `colorcolumn` value you set.

You can:

- hide colorcolumn for specific filetype
- set custom colorcolumn value for different filetype
- specify the scope where the plugin should work

## 📦 Installation

1. Install via your favorite package manager.

- [lazy.nvim](https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim)

```Lua
{
"m4xshen/smartcolumn.nvim",
opts = {}
},
```

- [packer.nvim](https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim)

```Lua
use "m4xshen/smartcolumn.nvim"
```

- [vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug)

```VimL
Plug "m4xshen/smartcolumn.nvim"
```

2. Setup the plugin in your `init.lua`. This step is not needed with lazy.nvim
if `opts` is set as above.

```Lua
require("smartcolumn").setup()
```

## 🔧 Configuration

You can pass your config table into the `setup()` function or `opts` if you use
lazy.nvim.

The available options:

- `colorcolumn` (strings or table) : screen columns that are highlighted
- `"80"` (default)
- `{ "80", "100" }`
- `disabled_filetypes` (table of strings) : the `colorcolumn` will be disabled
under the filetypes in this table
- `{ "help", "text", "markdown" }` (default)
- `{ "NvimTree", "lazy", "mason", "help", "checkhealth", "lspinfo", "noice", "Trouble", "fish", "zsh"}`
> [!NOTE]
> You can use `:set filetype?` to check the filetype of current buffer.
- `scope` (strings): the plugin only checks whether the lines within scope
exceed colorcolumn
- `"file"` (default): current file
- `"window"`: visible part of current window
- `"line"`: current line
- `custom_colorcolumn` (table or function returning string): custom
`colorcolumn` values for different filetypes
- `{}` (default)
- `{ ruby = "120", java = { "180", "200"} }`
- you can also pass a function to handle more complicated logic:
```lua
custom_colorcolumn = function ()
return "100"
end
```

### Default config

```Lua
local config = {
colorcolumn = "80",
disabled_filetypes = { "help", "text", "markdown" },
custom_colorcolumn = {},
scope = "file",
}
```
