Examples

More examples see ad-telescope-extensions and here.

The simplest

require('telescope').setup()
local maker = require('telescope-extension-maker')

maker.register {
  name = 'rtp',
  command = 'set rtp', -- vimscript
}

:Telescope rtp

Picker Options

maker.register {
  name = 'message',
  command = 'messages',
  picker = {
    sorting_strategy = 'ascending',
    default_selection_index = -1,
  }
}

See Types - PickerOptions.

Command function

maker.register {
  name= 'colors',
  command = function()
    local items = {}

    for key, value in pairs(vim.api.nvim_get_color_map()) do
      table.insert(items, {
        text = string.format('%s = %s', key, value),
        entry = { ordinal = key .. '=' .. value },
      })
    end

    return items
  end,
}

Preview file

maker.register {
  name = 'scriptnames',
  picker = { previewer = 'cat' },
  command = function()
    local output = vim.api.nvim_exec('scriptnames', true)
    return vim.tbl_map(function(text)
      local _, _, path = string.find(text, '^%s*%d+: (.+)')
      return { text = text, entry = { path = path } }
    end, vim.split(output, '\n'))
  end,
}

Highlight text

maker.register {
  name = 'env',

  highlights = {
    tel_ext_envs_1 = { fg = '#C3B11A' },
    tel_ext_envs_2 = { fg = '#34373B' },
  },

  -- See :h telescope.pickers.entry_display
  format = {
    separator = ' ',
    items = { {}, {}, {} },
  },

  command = function()
    local items = {}

    for key, value in pairs(vim.fn.environ()) do
      table.insert(items, {
        -- When format set, text must be a table.
        -- See :h telescope.pickers.entry_display
        text = { { key, 'tel_ext_envs_1' }, { '=', 'tel_ext_envs_2' }, value },

        entry = {
          ordinal = key .. '=' .. value,
        },
      })
    end

    return items
  end,
}

It looks like:

onSubmit

Single Selection

maker.register {
  name = 'changes',

  command = function()
    local items = {}
    for change in vim.api.nvim_exec('changes', true):gmatch('[^\r\n]+') do
      items[#items + 1] = change
    end
    return items
  end,

  onSubmit = function(item)
    if vim.tbl_islist(item) then
      error('Not support multiple selections')
    end

    local _, _, str = string.find(item.text, '^%s+%d+%s+(%d+)')
    vim.api.nvim_win_set_cursor(0, { tonumber(str), 0 })
  end,
}

Multiple Selections

maker.register {
  name = 'lsp_document_symbols_filter',

  command = function()
    return {
      'File', 'Module', 'Namespace', 'Package', 'Class', 'Method', 'Property', 'Field',
      'Constructor', 'Enum', 'Interface', 'Function', 'Variable', 'Constant', 'String',
      'Number', 'Boolean', 'Array', 'Object', 'Key', 'Null', 'EnumMember', 'Struct', 'Event',
      'Operator', 'TypeParameter',
    }
  end,

  onSubmit = function(items)
    local symbols
    if vim.tbl_islist(items) then
      symbols = vim.tbl_map(function(item)
        return item.text
      end, items)
    else
      symbols = { items.text }
    end

    require('telescope.builtin').lsp_document_symbols { symbols = symbols }
  end,
}

Async Command

It supports async function. The function accept a callback as parameter, whose signature is function(err, results).

You can invoke callback(nil, results) to pass results.

maker.register {
  name = 'hello',
  command = function(callback)
    vim.defer_fn(function()
      local items = { 'a', 'b', 'c' }
      callback(nil, items)
    end, 3000)
  end,
}
maker.register {
  name = 'hello2',
  command = function(callback)
    local items = { 'a', 'b', 'c' }
    callback(nil, items)
  end,
}

You can invoke callback(err) to pass an error for exception.

maker.register {
  name = 'hello3',
  command = function(callback)
    callback('failed')
  end,
}

Set keymaps for picker

To create keymap <C-9> for current picker.

maker.register {
  name = 'message',
  command = 'messages',
  remap = function(map, ctx, prompt_bufnr)
    map({ 'i', 'n' }, '<C-9>', function()
      local item = ctx:getSelectedItem()
      print('Current selected: ' .. item.text)
    end)
  end,
}

API

register(ext)

-- Create a telescope extension, and auto register to telescope.
-- No need to create _extension file and call telescope.load_extension()
-- @param ext {MakerExtension}
function register(ext)

create(ext)

-- Create a telescope extension.
-- @param ext {MakerExtension}
function create(ext)

Examples, create a file lua/telescope/_extensions/message and its content is:

return require('telescope-extension-maker').create {
  name = 'message',
  command = 'messages',
  picker = {
    sorting_strategy = 'ascending',
    default_selection_index = -1,
  }
}

--   If it's string, it must be vimscript codes. See :h nvim_exec
--   If it's function, it must return string[] or Item[] or nil.
--   It supports async function. The function accept a callback as parameter, whose signature is `function(err, results)`.
--   You can invoke `callback(err)` to pass an error for exception. Or invoke `callback(nil, results)` to pass results.
-- @prop [setup] {function} function(ext_config, config)  See telescope.register_extension({setup})
-- @prop [onSubmit] {function} function(Item):nil . Callback when user press <CR>

Item

-- @class Item {table}
-- @prop text {string|table}
-- @prop [entry] {EntryOpts}
-- @prop [<any-key> = <any-value>] -- You can set any key/value pairs into item

PickerOptions

-- @class PickerOptions {table}
--   The telescope picker options.
--   See https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim/blob/master/developers.md#picker
--   Or see the source code [Picker:new at telescope.nvim/lua/telescope/pickers.lua](https://github.com/nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim/blob/7a4ffef931769c3fe7544214ed7ffde5852653f6/lua/telescope/pickers.lua#L45).
--
--   But these fields is not supported: `finder`, `attach_mappings`.
--   Because they are defined in telescope-extension-maker.
--
-- @prop [prompt_title=MakerExtension.name] {string}
-- @prop [results_title] {string}
-- @prop [preview_title='Preview'] {string}
-- @prop [finder] {function} like finders.new_table
-- @prop [sorter='generic'] {Sorter|string}
--   string value: 'empty' 'file' 'generic' 'index_bias' 'fzy' 'highlight' 'levenshtein' 'substr' 'prefilter'
--   See lua/telescope-extension-maker/sorters.lua
-- @prop [previewer=false] {previewer|string|false}
-- @prop [layout_strategy] {table}
-- @prop [layout_config] {table}
-- @prop [scroll_strategy] {string}
-- @prop [sorting_strategy='descending'] {string} 'descending' 'ascending'
-- @prop [selection_strategy] {string} Values: follow, reset, row
-- @prop [cwd] {string}
-- @prop [default_text] {string}
-- @prop [default_selection_index] {number}
--   Change the index of the initial selection row. Support negative number.
-- @prop [wrap_results=true] {boolean}

EntryOpts

-- @class EntryOpts
-- :h telescope.make_entry
--
-- Options:
-- - value any: value key can be anything but still required
-- - valid bool: is an optional key because it defaults to true but if the key is
--   set to false it will not be displayed by the picker. (optional)
-- - ordinal string: is the text that is used for filtering (required)
-- - display string|function: is either a string of the text that is being
--   displayed or a function receiving the entry at a later stage, when the entry
--   is actually being displayed. A function can be useful here if complex
--   calculation have to be done. `make_entry` can also return a second value a
--   highlight array which will then apply to the line. Highlight entry in this
--   array has the following signature `{ { start_col, end_col }, hl_group }`
--   (required).
-- - filename string: will be interpreted by the default `<cr>` action as open
--   this file (optional)
-- - bufnr number: will be interpreted by the default `<cr>` action as open this
--   buffer (optional)
-- - lnum number: lnum value which will be interpreted by the default `<cr>`
--   action as a jump to this line (optional)
-- - col number: col value which will be interpreted by the default `<cr>` action
--   as a jump to this column (optional)
