TODO: Separate minimaps for each (non-floating) window. |
…ess on large files (?), maybe other stuff

So quick update: the performance of this isn't good enough to where I'd call it usable, due to the initial tree-sitter parsing of a file taking too much time. With this minimap enabled, unless you're opening a file with 100-400 (ish?) lines, it's not the best experience. The only way I can think to get around this is to do the file parsing in a separate [luv, The alternative to this is to just do what Goneovim does, run a separate nvim instance solely for the minimap, but I'm not a huge fan of that method personally, so I'd like to go this route (or a similar one?) if at all possible. |
Just an MVP for now, still need to make it show where the cursor is, scroll with the buffer (if necessary), also need to tweak colors/figure that out, etc.
Note that ATM it requires a tree-sitter parser/nvim-treesitter in order to be used at all; plan is to make it such that it'll work w/out a tree-sitter parser/nvim-treesitter, but have no syntax highlighting.
In any case, if you want to test open up a file (for which you have a tree-sitter parser installed that supports syntax highlighting), and then run
:lua require'uivonim/minimap'.show(). Here's how it looks in its current (and very very subject to change) form:Should close #194.
