- move around like in any vim buffer
<CR>oroon..will cd in the above directory<C-]>will cd in the directory under the cursor<BS>will close current opened directory or parent- type
ato add a file. Adding a directory requires leaving a leading/at the end of the path.you can add multiple directories by doing foo/bar/baz/f and it will add foo bar and baz directories and f as a file
- type
rto rename a file - type
<C-r>to rename a file and omit the filename on input - type
xto add/remove file/directory to cut clipboard - type
cto add/remove file/directory to copy clipboard - type
ywill copy name to system clipboard - type
Ywill copy relative path to system clipboard - type
gywill copy absolute path to system clipboard - type
pto paste from clipboard. Cut clipboard has precedence over copy (will prompt for confirmation) - type
dto delete a file (will prompt for confirmation) - type

sto open a file with default system application or a folder with default file manager (if you want to change the command used to do it see:h g:nvim_tree_system_open_commandand:h g:nvim_tree_system_open_command_args) - if the file is a directory,
<CR>will open the directory otherwise it will open the file in the buffer near the tree - if the file is a symlink,
<CR>will follow the symlink (if the target is a file) <C-v>will open the file in a vertical split<C-x>will open the file in a horizontal split<C-t>will open the file in a new tab<Tab>will open the file as a preview (keeps the cursor in the tree)Iwill toggle visibility of folders hidden via |g:nvim_tree_ignore|Hwill toggle visibility of dotfiles (files/folders starting with a.)Rwill refresh the tree- Double left click acts like
<CR> - Double right click acts like
<C-]>
You can disable default mappings with
" let g:nvim_tree_disable_keybindings=1But you won't be able to map any keys from the setup with nvim_tree_bindings. Use with caution.
You can use only your mappings with
letg:nvim_tree_disable_default_keybindings=1
You can define your own keymaps with this syntax:
lua <<EOFvim.g.nvim_tree_bindings= { {key= {"<CR>","o" },cb=":lua some_func()<cr>"} {key="<Tab>",mode="v",cb=":lua some_func()<cr>"} }EOF
Notes:
keycan be either a string or a table of stringsmodeisnby default if you don't specify itcbis the command that will be called when the keymap is triggered
If you don't use one of the options above, your keymaps will be added to the default keymaps.
lua <<EOF local tree_cb= require'nvim-tree.config'.nvim_tree_callback-- default mappingsvim.g.nvim_tree_bindings= { {key= {"<CR>","o","<2-LeftMouse>"},cb=tree_cb("edit") }, {key= {"<2-RightMouse>","<C-]>"},cb=tree_cb("cd") }, {key="<C-v>",cb=tree_cb("vsplit") }, {key="<C-x>",cb=tree_cb("split") }, {key="<C-t>",cb=tree_cb("tabnew") }, {key="<",cb=tree_cb("prev_sibling") }, {key=">",cb=tree_cb("next_sibling") }, {key="P",cb=tree_cb("parent_node") }, {key="<BS>",cb=tree_cb("close_node") }, {key="<S-CR>",cb=tree_cb("close_node") }, {key="<Tab>",cb=tree_cb("preview") }, {key="K",cb=tree_cb("first_sibling") }, {key="J",cb=tree_cb("last_sibling") }, {key="I",cb=tree_cb("toggle_ignored") }, {key="H",cb=tree_cb("toggle_dotfiles") }, {key="R",cb=tree_cb("refresh") }, {key="a",cb=tree_cb("create") }, {key="d",cb=tree_cb("remove") }, {key="r",cb=tree_cb("rename") }, {key="<C-r>",cb=tree_cb("full_rename") }, {key="x",cb=tree_cb("cut") }, {key="c",cb=tree_cb("copy") }, {key="p",cb=tree_cb("paste") }, {key="y",cb=tree_cb("copy_name") }, {key="Y",cb=tree_cb("copy_path") }, {key="gy",cb=tree_cb("copy_absolute_path") }, {key="[c",cb=tree_cb("prev_git_item") }, {key="]c",cb=tree_cb("next_git_item") }, {key="-",cb=tree_cb("dir_up") }, {key="s",cb=tree_cb("system_open") }, {key="q",cb=tree_cb("close") }, {key="g?",cb=tree_cb("toggle_help") }, }EOF
You can toggle the help UI by pressingg?.
This plugin is very fast because it uses thelibuvscandir andscandir_next functions instead of spawning anls process which can get slow on large files when combining withstat to get file informations.
- Open file in current buffer or in split with FzF like bindings (
<CR>,<C-v>,<C-x>,<C-t>) - File icons with nvim-web-devicons
- Syntax highlighting (exa like)
- Change directory with
. - Add / Rename / delete files
- Git integration (icons and file highlight)
- Lsp diagnostics integration (signs)
- Indent markers
- Mouse support
- It's fast
- You can edit the size of the tree during runtime with
:lua require'nvim-tree.view'.View.width = 50
