## rooter.nvim

`rooter.nvim` changes current working directory to project root of the file opened in current buffer. It

identifies a directory as project root if it contains any of the file or folder specified

in `vim.g.rooter_pattern`. `rooter.nvim` triggers every time the buffer changes.

Although this plugin has been tested only on linux, but it should work for all Unix based OS.

## Customization

`rooter.nvim` provides you with two options.

| Options                | Description                                                                 | Type     |

|------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------|

| `vim.g.rooter_pattern` | List of patterns(file or folder) which describes a directory as project root| list     |

| `vim.g.outermost_root` | Whether to change directory to outermost root directory or not              | boolean  |

Default configurations are 

```lua

vim.g.rooter_pattern = {'.git', 'Makefile', '_darcs', '.hg', '.bzr', '.svn', 'node_modules', 'CMakeLists.txt'} 

vim.g.outermost_root = true

```

## Updates

* Added support for `nvim-tree`.

## Bugs

Patterns like `*.sln` does not work as of now.
