# 🌳 syntax-tree-surfer 🌳🌊

### Syntax Tree Surfer is a plugin for Neovim that helps you surf through your document and move elements around using the nvim-treesitter API.

# Version 1.0 Functionalities

### **Navigate** around your document based on Treesitter's abstract Syntax Tree. Step into, step out, step over, step back.

### **Move / Swap** elements around based on your visual selection

### **Swap in Normal Mode** - Now supports Dot (.) Repeat

# How do I install?

#### Use your favorite Plugin Manager with the link [ziontee113/syntax-tree-surfer](ziontee113/syntax-tree-surfer)

For Packer:

```lua
use "ziontee113/syntax-tree-surfer"
```

# How do I set things up?

### Here's my suggestion:

```lua
-- Syntax Tree Surfer
local opts = {noremap = true, silent = true}

-- Normal Mode Swapping:
-- Swap The Master Node relative to the cursor with it's siblings, Dot Repeatable
vim.keymap.set("n", "vU", function()
vim.opt.opfunc = "v:lua.STSSwapUpNormal_Dot"
return "g@l"
end, { silent = true, expr = true })
vim.keymap.set("n", "vD", function()
vim.opt.opfunc = "v:lua.STSSwapDownNormal_Dot"
return "g@l"
end, { silent = true, expr = true })

-- Swap Current Node at the Cursor with it's siblings, Dot Repeatable
vim.keymap.set("n", "vd", function()
vim.opt.opfunc = "v:lua.STSSwapCurrentNodeNextNormal_Dot"
return "g@l"
end, { silent = true, expr = true })
vim.keymap.set("n", "vu", function()
vim.opt.opfunc = "v:lua.STSSwapCurrentNodePrevNormal_Dot"
return "g@l"
end, { silent = true, expr = true })

--> If the mappings above don't work, use these instead (no dot repeatable)
-- vim.keymap.set("n", "vd", 'STSSwapCurrentNodeNextNormal', opts)
-- vim.keymap.set("n", "vu", 'STSSwapCurrentNodePrevNormal', opts)
-- vim.keymap.set("n", "vD", 'STSSwapDownNormal', opts)
-- vim.keymap.set("n", "vU", 'STSSwapUpNormal', opts)

-- Visual Selection from Normal Mode
vim.keymap.set("n", "vx", 'STSSelectMasterNode', opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "vn", 'STSSelectCurrentNode', opts)

-- Select Nodes in Visual Mode
vim.keymap.set("x", "J", 'STSSelectNextSiblingNode', opts)
vim.keymap.set("x", "K", 'STSSelectPrevSiblingNode', opts)
vim.keymap.set("x", "H", 'STSSelectParentNode', opts)
vim.keymap.set("x", "L", 'STSSelectChildNode', opts)

-- Swapping Nodes in Visual Mode
vim.keymap.set("x", "", 'STSSwapNextVisual', opts)
vim.keymap.set("x", "", 'STSSwapPrevVisual', opts)
```

# Now let's start Tree Surfing! 🌲💦

### Version 1.1 update

This feature will help you save some keystrokes & brain power when you want to create some code at the top level node of your current cursor position.

```lua
lua require("syntax-tree-surfer").go_to_top_node_and_execute_commands(false, { "normal! O", "normal! O", "startinsert" })
```

The .go_to_top_node_and_execute_commands() method takes 2 arguments:

1. boolean: if false then it will jump to the beginning of the node, if true it jumps to the end.

1. lua table: a table that contains strings, each string is a vim command example: { "normal! O", "normal! O", "startinsert" }

# Version 2.0 Beta Update

### Targeted Jump with Virtual Text

https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/102876811/169820839-5ec66bd9-bf14-49f6-8e5a-3078b8ec43c4.mp4

### Filtered Jump through user-defined node types

https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/102876811/169820922-b1eefa5e-6ed9-4ebd-95d1-f3f35e0388da.mp4

### These are experimental features and I wish to expand them even further. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to let me know 😊

Example mappings for Version 2.0 Beta functionalities:

```lua
-- Syntax Tree Surfer V2 Mappings
-- Targeted Jump with virtual_text
local sts = require("syntax-tree-surfer")
vim.keymap.set("n", "gv", function() -- only jump to variable_declarations
sts.targeted_jump({ "variable_declaration" })
end, opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "gfu", function() -- only jump to functions
sts.targeted_jump({ "function", "arrrow_function", "function_definition" })
--> In this example, the Lua language schema uses "function",
-- when the Python language uses "function_definition"
-- we include both, so this keymap will work on both languages
end, opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "gif", function() -- only jump to if_statements
sts.targeted_jump({ "if_statement" })
end, opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "gfo", function() -- only jump to for_statements
sts.targeted_jump({ "for_statement" })
end, opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "gj", function() -- jump to all that you specify
sts.targeted_jump({
"function",
"if_statement",
"else_clause",
"else_statement",
"elseif_statement",
"for_statement",
"while_statement",
"switch_statement",
})
end, opts)

-------------------------------
-- filtered_jump --
-- "default" means that you jump to the default_desired_types or your lastest jump types
vim.keymap.set("n", "", function()
sts.filtered_jump("default", true) --> true means jump forward
end, opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "", function()
sts.filtered_jump("default", false) --> false means jump backwards
end, opts)

-- non-default jump --> custom desired_types
vim.keymap.set("n", "your_keymap", function()
sts.filtered_jump({
"if_statement",
"else_clause",
"else_statement",
}, true) --> true means jump forward
end, opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "your_keymap", function()
sts.filtered_jump({
"if_statement",
"else_clause",
"else_statement",
}, false) --> false means jump backwards
end, opts)

-------------------------------
-- jump with limited targets --
-- jump to sibling nodes only
vim.keymap.set("n", "-", function()
sts.filtered_jump({
"if_statement",
"else_clause",
"else_statement",
}, false, { destination = "siblings" })
end, opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "=", function()
sts.filtered_jump({ "if_statement", "else_clause", "else_statement" }, true, { destination = "siblings" })
end, opts)

-- jump to parent or child nodes only
vim.keymap.set("n", "_", function()
sts.filtered_jump({
"if_statement",
"else_clause",
"else_statement",
}, false, { destination = "parent" })
end, opts)
vim.keymap.set("n", "+", function()
sts.filtered_jump({
"if_statement",
"else_clause",
"else_statement",
}, true, { destination = "children" })
end, opts)

-- Setup Function example:
-- These are the default options:
require("syntax-tree-surfer").setup({
highlight_group = "STS_highlight",
disable_no_instance_found_report = false,
default_desired_types = {
"function",
"arrow_function",
"function_definition",
"if_statement",
"else_clause",
"else_statement",
"elseif_statement",
"for_statement",
"while_statement",
"switch_statement",
},
left_hand_side = "fdsawervcxqtzb",
right_hand_side = "jkl;oiu.,mpy/n",
icon_dictionary = {
["if_statement"] = "",
["else_clause"] = "",
["else_statement"] = "",
["elseif_statement"] = "",
["for_statement"] = "ﭜ",
["while_statement"] = "ﯩ",
["switch_statement"] = "ﳟ",
["function"] = "ïž”",
["function_definition"] = "ïž”",
["variable_declaration"] = "",
},
})
```

### Because every languages have different schemas and node-types, you can check the node-types that you're interested in with https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/playground

#### You can also do a quick check using the command :STSPrintNodesAtCursor

# Version 2.2 Update

### Hold and swap nodes
https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/8104435/225992362-4e82d677-2ff5-463a-a910-6a6bdbf4fc9c.mp4

This feature allows marking a node and then swapping it with another node.

Example mapping:

```lua
-- Holds a node, or swaps the held node
vim.keymap.set("n", "gnh", "STSSwapOrHold", opts)
-- Same for visual
vim.keymap.set("x", "gnh", "STSSwapOrHoldVisual", opts)
```

The lower-level functionality can be accessed via:
```lua
require("syntax-tree-surfer").hold_or_swap(true) -- param is_visual boolean
require("syntax-tree-surfer").clear_held_node()
```
note that `STSSwapOrHoldVisual` will clear the visual selection, but `hold_or_swap(true)` will not.
