Vim FZF Cache Plugin 💾

Vim fzf cache for fast access large project directories and files.
When running vim on project directory root ( nvim . ) this plugin will create
.cache.fzf file to cache all files in the project (except for node_modules, env, venv, pycache, .git).

This is a complementary plugin for session.vim: https://github.com/memoryInject/session.vim

**Note: To use this plugin make sure to install

tree: https://www.tecmint.com/linux-tree-command-examples/ (if you don't have tree it fallback to find, it might have a performance impact while caching)
fzf for shell
fzf vim: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim
AsyncRun: https://github.com/skywind3000/asyncrun.vim

**This plugin only works in linux and macos only
There is a workaround when using git bash on windows if you want to run this plugin under git bash on windows send me an email.

Installation

Install with your favourite plugin manager but make sure it installed after vim fzf and AsyncRun

  Plug 'junegunn/fzf.vim'
  Plug 'skywind3000/asyncrun.vim'
  Plug 'memoryInject/fzfcache.vim'

Usage/Examples

Setup a macro in vimrc to open fzf cache window

nnoremap <silent> <Leader>fc : Fzfopencache<return>

To run manually on command:

" Create cache at root ./.cache.fzf
:Fzfcache

" Open fzf cache window
:Fzfopencache

This plugin does not need any other additional setup.
When running ' nvim . ' on bash, it will create .cache.fzf file on the root directory. You can add .cache.fzf on .gitignore and delete after the project finish.

nvim .

If there is no cache file and try to open :Fzfopencache this will output 'Can not find cache file'
If accedently delete .cache.fzf at root and open :Fzfopencache it will create new cache

If you pass 'ns' argument when opening nvim ( nvim . ns ) this will disable the cache and won't create .cache.fzf file.

nvim . ns
