stackanswers.vim
================

[Vim](http://www.vim.org/) plugin to get answers from [Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/). Inspired by [SO-Eclipse-Plugin](https://github.com/MarounMaroun/SO-Eclipse-Plugin).

`:StackAnswers`
---------------
Anything inputted after the command becomes the 'question' that will be answered from Stack Overflow, provided
that answers exist. Answers will be shown in a separate buffer.

Installation
------------
StackAnswers should work with any modern plugin manager for Vim, such as [NeoBundle](https://github.com/Shougo/neobundle.vim), [Pathogen](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen), [Vim-Plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug/), or [Vundle](https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim).

#### Requirements:
StackAnswers uses an external python module to parse data. You can install it via:
```
sudo apt-get install pip
pip install requests
pip install beautifulsoup4
pip install html5lib
```
