Neovim Setting keymaps

Useful Keymaps

Create the keymaps file:

touch ~/.config/nvim/lua/user/keymaps.lua

Here are some useful keymappings I use:

local opts = { noremap = true, silent = true } local term_opts = { silent = true } -- Shorten function name local keymap = vim.api.nvim_set_keymap -- Modes -- normal_mode = "n", -- insert_mode = "i", -- visual_mode = "v", -- visual_block_mode = "x", -- term_mode = "t", -- command_mode = "c", -- Normal -- -- Better window navigation keymap("n", "<C-h>", "<C-w>h", opts) keymap("n", "<C-j>", "<C-w>j", opts) keymap("n", "<C-k>", "<C-w>k", opts) keymap("n", "<C-l>", "<C-w>l", opts) -- Resize with arrows keymap("n", "<C-Up>", ":resize -2<CR>", opts) keymap("n", "<C-Down>", ":resize +2<CR>", opts) keymap("n", "<C-Left>", ":vertical resize -2<CR>", opts) keymap("n", "<C-Right>", ":vertical resize +2<CR>", opts) -- Naviagate buffers keymap("n", "<S-l>", ":bnext<CR>", opts) keymap("n", "<S-h>", ":bprevious<CR>", opts) -- Move text up and down keymap("n", "<A-j>", "<Esc>:m .+1<CR>==gi", opts) keymap("n", "<A-k>", "<Esc>:m .-2<CR>==gi", opts) -- Insert -- -- Press jk fast to enter keymap("i", "jk", "<ESC>", opts) -- Visual -- -- Stay in indent mode keymap("v", "<", "<gv", opts) keymap("v", ">", ">gv", opts) -- Move text up and down keymap("v", "<A-j>", ":m .+1<CR>==", opts) keymap("v", "<A-k>", ":m .-2<CR>==", opts) -- Visual Block -- -- Move text up and down keymap("x", "J", ":move '>+1<CR>gv-gv", opts) keymap("x", "K", ":move '<-2<CR>gv-gv", opts) keymap("x", "<A-j>", ":move '>+1<CR>gv-gv", opts) keymap("x", "<A-k>", ":move '<-2<CR>gv-gv", opts) -- Terminal -- -- Better terminal navigation keymap("t", "<C-h>", "<C-\\><C-N><C-w>h", term_opts) keymap("t", "<C-j>", "<C-\\><C-N><C-w>j", term_opts) keymap("t", "<C-k>", "<C-\\><C-N><C-w>k", term_opts) keymap("t", "<C-l>", "<C-\\><C-N><C-w>l", term_opts) -- Command -- -- Menu navigation keymap("c", "<C-j>", 'pumvisible() ?

Require in init.lua

require("user.keymaps")
