Loading of settings seem to work, but this plugin is still lacking documentation and finishing touches. Therefore it is considered as WIP.
This plugin allows to specific settings on a per buffer basis. Kind of like local vimrc, but the settings are stored within a global or project specific vimscript file. This file will be sourced by vim automatically, but the settings won't be applied until a buffer name or filepath match a regular expression, which is specified for each setting on creation.
Makefile rules have to be indented via tabs instead of spaces. Therefore noexpandtab should be applied to all makefiles.
To register this setting for all makefiles, call ConfigerEditConfig <file-/buffer-name glob>.
E.g. ConfigerEditConfig makefile.
A new buffer will be created, where the respective settings for makefile can be entered.
setlocal noexpandtab
After saving the buffer, configer will write the settings to the respective global/project-config and applies noexpandtab everytime a makefile-buffer is read or created.
Notice: When invoking ConfigerEditConfig makefile again, the previously entered settings can be edited (as the name suggests).
- ConfigerEditConfig Expects a file-glob as argument. Edit an existing settings-block or creates one.
- ConfigerDeleteConfig Expects a file-glob as argument. Should delete the settings-block of the given glob from the global config file.
- ConfigerReloadConfig Reloads the global config file.
The buffer matching file-glob will be encoded to a function name and the given settings will be placed within the functions body. When the global configuration is loaded, the file-glob are transformed to autocmds which invoke the respective setting-functions. As autocmds and functions can be unloaded by Vim, whole buffer settings can be cleared and reapplied on need without any leftover settings.
