# Alternate Toggler
Alternate Toggler is a _very_ small plugin for toggling alternate "boolean" values.

![](https://github.com/rmagatti/readme-assets/blob/main/alternate-toggler.gif)

# Usage
`:ToggleAlternate` toggles the current word () based on a pre-defined map of alternates.

# Installation
Any plugin manager should do, I use [Packer](https://github.com/wbthomason/packer.nvim).

```lua
use {
'rmagatti/alternate-toggler',
config = function()
require("alternate-toggler").setup {
alternates = {
["=="] = "!="
}
}

vim.keymap.set(
"n",
"", --
"lua require('alternate-toggler').toggleAlternate()"
)
end,
event = { "BufReadPost" }, -- lazy load after reading a buffer
}
```

# Configuration

### Defaults
This plugin provides a few pre-defined alternate mappings.
```lua
{
["true"] = "false",
["True"] = "False",
["TRUE"] = "FALSE",
["Yes"] = "No",
["YES"] = "NO",
["1"] = "0",
["<"] = ">",
["("] = ")",
["["] = "]",
["{"] = "}",
['"'] = "'",
['""'] = "''",
["+"] = "-",
["==="] = "!=="
}
```

### Custom
You can add more alternates through a global config variable:
```viml
let g:at_custom_alternates = {'===': '!=='}
```

Or through calling the `setup` method of the plugin passing in an `alternates` table in the config.
```lua
require("alternate-toggler").setup {
alternates = {
["==="] = "!==",
["=="] = "!=",
}
}
```
:warning: WARNING: anything added here will override existing values if the key of the dict/table is the same as any of the defaults.

# Commands
Alternate Toggler exposes a single `:ToggleAlternate` command.

**Example mappings:**
```viml
nnoremap ta :ToggleAlternate
```
**OR**
```viml
augroup AlternateToggles
au!
au FileType typescript,viml,lua nnoremap :ToggleAlternate
augroup end
```
This allows for merely hitting the enter key to toggle an alternate, the caveat is having to specify supported file types manually.
