# harpoon
# harpoon
Harpoon is a terminal navigator for Neovim (currently, but I want vim to work
as well). Harpoon itself does not provide much for functionality other than
goto a terminal, set a terminal, and sending commands. Where it shines is in
local configs.
## Installation
Simply install via your favorite plugin manager.
```
Plug 'ThePrimeagen/harpoon'
```
## Harpooning
### The Basics
Harpoon provides up to 4 slots for terminals. Now you don't want to overload
terminals with everything. I just tend to think about this as project specific
tasks. Such as, `yarn lint`, `yarn test`, or some command based off of current
file.
Personally I only use 1 terminal. I have no use for multiple terminals, but it
does provide the hooks for that.
### Navigation
To start navigating with Harpoon you simply `:call GotoBuffer(<bufnu>)`. This
will create / navigate to the terminal in current buffer.
`bufnu`: can be a number from 0 - 3. As stated above, there are up to 4 slots.
### Sending Commands
Where Harpoon shines is in local configs.
To setup a local config (per project) you must have a `.nvimrc` in the root of
your project (where you open up vim) and you must have the following sets in your root vimrc.
```
set exrc
set secure "optional, but it prevents harmful scripts from editing
"I don't have this option on
```
#### Local Configuration example
For [VimDeathmatch](https://github.com/VimDeathmatch/server) we have a local
config for running commands. Here is an example.
```
nnoremap <leader>ce :call SendTerminalCommand(0, "cd ~/personal/VimDeathmatch/server/server && npm run test" . expand("%") . "\n")<CR>
```
1. I have `c` as the start into my local commands.
2. e = middle finger, home row on Dvorak. Power finger.
3. Setup your own commands
That means when I am in Deathmatch and I want to test my current file I press
<leader>ce and it will open a terminal if there isn't one opened and execute
the commands. I could of made that command a lot better, I was just in a hurry
:) Forgive me.
#### General Navigation examples
Personally I have the following remaps in my root rc.
```
nmap <leader>tu :call GotoBuffer(0)<CR>
nmap <leader>te :call GotoBuffer(1)<CR>
nmap <leader>to :call GotoBuffer(2)<CR>
nmap <leader>ta :call GotoBuffer(3)<CR>
```
Same concept as before. `t` is my entrence into the terminal world and aoeu is
my homerow. All power positions.
