This is a simple extension of harpoon's functionality which enables use of harpoon's API to save directories for use in Telescope.
In large monorepos, Telescope can potentially become unwieldy. This isn't due to performance issues - rather, if your repository has lots of projects within it with similar structure, there can be lots of files with duplicate names.
In short; mark folders with harpoon, search those folders with Telescope.
Using packer.nvim
use({ 'ThePrimeagen/harpoon', requires = { 'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim', 'nvim-lua/popup.nvim' } })
use({ 'mikatpt/harpoon-finder', after = 'harpoon' })Using vim-plug
Plug 'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim'
Plug 'nvim-lua/popup.nvim'
Plug 'ThePrimeagen/harpoon'
Plug 'mikatpt/harpoon-finder'From within a file, call the following function to mark or remove its parent directory.
require('harpoon-finder.mark').toggle_dir()Paths may be viewed and modified in the quick menu. Invalid paths will be ignored, and child directories will be truncated into their parent directories.
require('harpoon-finder.ui').toggle_quick_menu()For convenience, a find_files method is provided below.
require('harpoon-finder.ui').find_files()However, you can also use the get_search_dirs method in conjunction with
Telescope's builtin methods directly.
local dirs = require('harpoon-finder.ui').get_search_dirs()
require('telescope.builtin').find_files({ search_dirs = dirs })
require('telescope.builtin').live_grep({ search_dirs = dirs })
