I have defined a function to search for filename (<C-P>), and a string (<C-F>) from git root directory asynchronously with fzf.vim plugin (I also have Ag installed). However, I can not manipulate the definition to ignore node_modules directory. The vim script is too hard to debug, there is no console to print anything.
Is there any expert in vim script that can help me sort this out. Many thanks in advance
let s:git_path = substitute(system("git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null"), '\n', '', '')
function! s:ag_git_root(query, ...)
if type(a:query) != type('')
return s:warn('Invalid query argument')
endif
let query = empty(a:query) ? '^(?=.)' : a:query
let args = copy(a:000)
let ag_opts = len(args) > 1 && type(args[0]) == s:TYPE.string ? remove(args, 0) : ''
let command = ag_opts . ' ' . fzf#shellescape(query) . ' ' . s:git_path
return call('fzf#vim#ag_raw', insert(args, command, 0))
endfunction
command! -bang -nargs=* A
\ call s:ag_git_root(<q-args>, <bang>0)
command! -bang -nargs=? F
\ call fzf#vim#files(s:git_path, <bang>0)
silent! nmap <C-P> :F<CR>
silent! nmap <C-F> :A<CR>
Finally, I figured out a workaround by replacing fzf#vim#files with :Gfiles
New configuration is silent! nmap <C-P> :GFiles<CR>
<C-F> mapping is kept the same as in the question.
The demerit of this :GFiles solution is that files not added to git (untracked files) are not included in the search results. They all can be added via git add . -A
The merit of this solution is that all files in .gitignore is ignored in the search results
