Share your ~/.ideavimrc

[AlexPl292]

Hi! Here you can share your cool ~/.ideavimrc config or find some new ideas.

Here you can find my personal configuration: https://gist.github.com/AlexPl292/50a3ff4cef1badcbb23436b22cbd3cf4

[leeturner]

Yours looks way more impressing that mine - https://github.com/leeturner/vimrc/blob/master/ideavimrc

I don't think I have seen the set ideastrictmode. What does that do ?

[AlexPl292]

Well, yeah, I guess so, it may catch some issues :)

It's a shame https://towardsdatascience.com/the-essential-ideavim-remaps-291d4cd3971b is behind a paywall now. This what I chose to open the terminal.

nmap <leader>t <Action>(ActivateTerminalToolWindow)

Nothing too scary. Set up defaults/vim-sensible type stuff, enable most of the ideavim extensions and add a few maps to IntelliJ actions.

What does :raction do?

[chylex]

Works around being unable to use counts for actions until <Action> is fixed. As mentioned in the comments, it's from my fork.

Hey, does anyone knows how to map Show Context Actions ?

[ddadon10]

Does this works for you? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66527100/which-one-action-in-actionlist-is-ide-keymap-show-context-action#comment117611572_66527100

[q843705423]

:action ShowIntentionActions
My most common command, so I use two enter keys to map it

[gabrielbidula]

Exactly, Thanks a lot!

[megawubs]

Have a look at mine, I'm trying to remap a lot of actions: https://github.com/megawubs/dotfiles/blob/main/dot_ideavimrc#L109

[d3rp]

Oh wow! Mapping CLion actions to vim shortcuts just made my day in a major way.

I've set my <leader> to space bar and use this configuration in CLion: https://gist.github.com/d3rp/a24072e28224725a6e5359d303aba908

[AlexPl292]

What actions do work in CLion, but don't work in PyCharm?

[d3rp]

Scratch that. I responded yesterday that certain actions don't work, but I tried them over now with a fresh start - they do. My bad, maybe some disconfiguration. However, they work. I edited my original message as to not give a wrong impression of what works and what doesn't.

[diocletiann]

How can I map leader+leader to "Search Everywhere" in normal mode? Thanks.

[wangrunlin]

The email tells me：

noremap :action SearchEverywhere

[diocletiann]

Saw the email but nothing came up here. Thanks!

This works: noremap <Leader><Leader> :action SearchEverywhere<CR>

[wangrunlin]

Saw the email but nothing came up here. Thanks!

This works: noremap <Leader><Leader> :action SearchEverywhere<CR>

Yes, that's the right answser.

[lost22git]

anyone know how to map the actions: up/down move completion item selection

[Nav31]

looking for the same thing 😅

[chadbloomfield]

In editor actions, changing down to ctrl+j seems to work well Can do the same for up. You may need to select use IDE in vim settings for ctrl+j and ctrl+k

[Nav31]

thanks @chadbloomfield I'll give this a shot!

[kqvanity]

@chadbloomfield You might also need to delegate the Ctrl-k to the IDE at the conflicting shortcuts subsection (if it's set to VIM ofc)

[lost22git]

@chadbloomfield Unfortunately it is not working for completion items when binding with <ALT>+<key>

When my focus (cursor) is in the terminal-debug-view, I cannot bring the focus back into the editor without using my mouse. Did someone solve this problem?

[sakurawald]

That is an old problem. You can use some idea shortcuts like ctrl + 4 to close/hide current buffer.

[ved-leachim]

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for :)

[citizenmatt]

Escape will usually put the focus from a tool window back to the editor

[kqvanity]

As much as I want to eagerly read others' configs and expand mine, I was looking for a systematic scalable approach that adheres to Vim grammar. AFAIK SpaceVim managed to do such a thing.

Instead of posting basic "hello-world" examples, consider sharing something unique about your ideavimrc files.

For example, here’s mine:
ideavimrc.

1. There are Vim plugins that allow selection of any braces with af (a form) commands like: vaf, daf, yif, etc. For instance, the vim-sexp plugin. I wanted the same functionality in IntelliJ IDEA, so I combined Ideavim with liveplugin to achieve this. Here is the liveplugin file and the related part of ideavimrc.

2. I use indent folding to unfold only the parts I need:

This is done by adding:

autocmd Filetype vim set foldmethod=indent

The above is included in my .vimrc, which I reuse between my Neovim and IntelliJ IDEA configs with:

source ~/.vimrc

[dbilici]

https://github.com/dbilici/IdeaVim

The repo includes a detailed README and a link to an article I wrote on Medium about the process. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

[D00mch]

Great example of an ideavimrc. Just one thought: I prefer to have the same mappings across all popular apps (Vim, terminal, IDEA, Chrome). In that regard, <cmd+1> to <cmd+9> are better bindings for switching tabs.
Personally, I move default <cmd+number> to <space+number>. For example, <space+1> opens nerdtree (:action SelectInProjectView).

[dbilici]

Thank you for the feedback! I understand the preference for consistency across different apps. I opted for Ctrl instead of Cmd because I’ve remapped my Caps Lock key to Ctrl, which is easier to reach from the home row. This setup makes it more efficient for me. However, your approach with Cmd and moving the default to <Space+number> is a great idea for those who prefer that setup.

[megawubs]

Awesome example!

[jtonic]

Thanks all for the all impressive shared configuration of the ideavimrc.

One keymap that looks like missing, and made me grab the mouse while altering the ideavimrc configuration, is:

nmap <leader>vr <Action>(IdeaVim.ReloadVimRc.reload)

[D00mch]

I used to do it with: : source ~/.ideavimrc. Didn't know thre is an action IdeaVim.ReloadVimRc.reload.

[lost22git]

I used to do it with: Ctrl+Shift-o. Didn't know thre is an action IdeaVim.ReloadVimRc.reload. ;)

[lijingjiang]

Super helpful thread!
