scaladex.nvim

This neovim plugin serves two purposes:

• It provides a library that you can require and query the scaladex index
• A Telescope extension that allows you to search the scaladex index and add a dependency to your project or look at the dependencies page on scaladex.

Requirements

• Neovim 0.5+
• Plenary
• Telescope (optional if you want to use as a Telescope extension)

Supports

• SBT
• Mill
• Ammonite

Installation

Using packer:

Add the following to your init.lua:

use { 'nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim', requires = { { 'nvim-lua/popup.nvim' }, { 'nvim-lua/plenary.nvim' } } }
use { 'softinio/scaladex.nvim' }

Require the extension:

require('telescope').load_extension('scaladex')

Add a mapping to open search box:

vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<leader>si', [[<cmd>lua require('telescope').extensions.scaladex.scaladex.search()<cr>]], { noremap = true, silent = true })

Sample PR updating my config.

Usage

Telescope

1. Open search (if above mapping set that would be your <leader> key and si)
2. Enter package you are searching for and press enter, e.g. cats
3. Select artifact
4. From the results panel select the one you are interested in, then:

Keyboard	What it does
<C-s>	Opens the browser, scaladex page for the package you selected
<C-R> (i.e. enter)	Copies to your clipboard what you need to add to your build file to add dependency to your project

Use as a Library

To import library

local scaladex = require'scaladex'

Functions available

• search(search_term, targeted_platform, scala_version) : searches scaladex for the term you want to search for.
  • targeted_platform defaults to "JVM" and scala_version defaults to 2.13 when not provided with function call.
    • Returns a list of possible projects matching your search_term
• get_project(organization, repository) - returns all details of a specific project from scaladex
  • organization is the github organization
    • repository is the project/repository name within the organization

Examples

Search

-- search for 'cats' 
scaladex.search('cats')

Get Project

-- get details of 'cats' library
scaladex.get_project('typelevel', 'cats')
