# nvim-surround

Surround selections, stylishly :sunglasses:



## :sparkles: Features

- Add/delete/change surrounding pairs
- Function calls and HTML tags out-of-the-box
- Dot-repeat previous actions
- Set buffer-local mappings and surrounds
- Jump to the _nearest_ surrounding pair for modification
- Use a single character as an alias for several text-objects
- E.g. `q` is aliased to \`,',", so csqb replaces
the _nearest_ set of quotes with parentheses
- Surround using powerful pairs that depend on user input
- Modify custom surrounds
- First-class support for Vim motions, Lua patterns, and Tree-sitter nodes
- Highlight selections for visual feedback

## :lock: Requirements

- [Neovim 0.8+](https://github.com/neovim/neovim/releases)
- \[Recommended] If
[nvim-treesitter](https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter) is
installed, then Tree-sitter nodes may be surrounded and modified, in addition
to just Vim motions and Lua patterns
- \[Recommended] If
[nvim-treesitter-textobjects](https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter-textobjects)
is installed, then Tree-sitter text-objects can be used to define surrounds,
simplifying configuration

## :package: Installation

Install this plugin using your favorite plugin manager, and then call
`require("nvim-surround").setup()`.

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

```lua
{
"kylechui/nvim-surround",
version = "*", -- Use for stability; omit to use `main` branch for the latest features
event = "VeryLazy",
config = function()
require("nvim-surround").setup({
-- Configuration here, or leave empty to use defaults
})
end
}
```

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

```lua
use({
"kylechui/nvim-surround",
tag = "*", -- Use for stability; omit to use `main` branch for the latest features
config = function()
require("nvim-surround").setup({
-- Configuration here, or leave empty to use defaults
})
end
})
```

## :rocket: Usage

The three "core" operations of `add`/`delete`/`change` can be done with the
keymaps `ys{motion}{char}`, `ds{char}`, and `cs{target}{replacement}`,
respectively. For the following examples, `*` will denote the cursor position:

```help
Old text Command New text
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
surr*ound_words ysiw) (surround_words)
*make strings ys$" "make strings"
[delete ar*ound me!] ds] delete around me!
remove HTML t*ags dst remove HTML tags
'change quot*es' cs'" "change quotes"
or tag* types csth1

or tag types


delete(functi*on calls) dsf function calls
```
