## Features

- Mappings and Lua functions that modify arguments (regions inside brackets between allowed separators) under cursor.

Supported actions:
- Toggle - split if arguments are on single line, join otherwise. Main supported function of the module. See `MiniSplitjoin.toggle()` in help file.
- Split - make every argument separator be on end of separate line. See `MiniSplitjoin.split()` in help file.
- Join - make all arguments be on single line. See `MiniSplitjoin.join()` in help file.

- Mappings are dot-repeatable in Normal mode and work in Visual mode.

- Customizable argument detection (see `MiniSplitjoin.config.detect` in help file):
- Which brackets can contain arguments.
- Which strings can separate arguments.
- Which regions exclude when looking for separators (like inside nested brackets or quotes).

- Customizable pre and post hooks for both split and join. See `split` and `join` of `MiniSplitjoin.config` in help file.

- Works inside comments by using modified notion of indent. See `MiniSplitjoin.get_indent_part()` in help file.

- Provides low-level Lua functions for split and join at positions. See `MiniSplitjoin.split_at()` and `MiniSplitjoin.join_at()` in help file.

Notes:
- Search for arguments is done using Lua patterns (regex-like approach). Certain amount of false positives is to be expected.

- This module is mostly designed around `MiniSplitjoin.toggle()`. If initial split positions are on different lines, join first and then split.

- Actions can be done on Visual mode selection, which mostly present as a safety route in case of incorrect detection of initial region. It uses `MiniSplitjoin.get_visual_region()` which treats selection as full brackets (use `va)` and not `vi)`).

## Installation

This plugin can be installed as part of 'mini.nvim' library (**recommended**) or as a standalone Git repository.

There are two branches to install from:

- `main` (default, **recommended**) will have latest development version of plugin. All changes since last stable release should be perceived as being in beta testing phase (meaning they already passed alpha-testing and are moderately settled).
- `stable` will be updated only upon releases with code tested during public beta-testing phase in `main` branch.

Here are code snippets for some common installation methods (use only one):

With mini.deps

Github repo
Branch Code snippet




'mini.nvim' library
Main Plug 'echasnovski/mini.nvim'

Standalone plugin Main Plug 'echasnovski/mini.splitjoin'


Stable Plug 'echasnovski/mini.splitjoin', { 'branch': 'stable' }


**Important**: don't forget to call `require('mini.splitjoin').setup()` to enable its functionality.

**Note**: if you are on Windows, there might be problems with too long file paths (like `error: unable to create file : Filename too long`). Try doing one of the following:
- Enable corresponding git global config value: `git config --system core.longpaths true`. Then try to reinstall.
- Install plugin in other place with shorter path.

## Default config

```lua
-- No need to copy this inside `setup()`. Will be used automatically.
{
-- Module mappings. Use `''` (empty string) to disable one.
-- Created for both Normal and Visual modes.
mappings = {
toggle = 'gS',
split = '',
join = '',
},

-- Detection options: where split/join should be done
detect = {
-- Array of Lua patterns to detect region with arguments.
-- Default: { '%b()', '%b[]', '%b{}' }
brackets = nil,

-- String Lua pattern defining argument separator
separator = ',',

-- Array of Lua patterns for sub-regions to exclude separators from.
-- Enables correct detection in presence of nested brackets and quotes.
-- Default: { '%b()', '%b[]', '%b{}', '%b""', "%b''" }
exclude_regions = nil,
},

-- Split options
split = {
hooks_pre = {},
hooks_post = {},
},

-- Join options
join = {
hooks_pre = {},
hooks_post = {},
},
}
```
