hound.vim

A plugin to talk to Etsy's Hound trigram search.

Installation

Vundle or Pathogen

Dependencies

This plugin requires:

webapi-vim and curl

Description

Introduces the

:Hound

command, which takes a string and asks a hound server: "like hey what's up with this string?" and presents the results in a scratch buffer.

hound.vim assumes you have a server running on localhost at port 6080. If you want to hit somewhere else you can redefine either in your .vimrc:

let g:hound_base_url = "arbitrary.url.com"
let g:hound_port = "6081"

You can also limit which repos you search through with (case insensitive) comma separated strings:

let g:hound_repos = "arepo,anotherrepo,anynumberofrepos"

To ignore case in searches by default:

let g:hound_ignore_case = 1

I also recommend a mapping such as

nnoremap <leader>a :Hound<space>

for quick access.

If you want a vertical split instead of a new window:

let g:hound_vertical_split = 1

This is a beta release. Please let me know of any bugs! There will be bugs! More docs and features and options to come.
