usage

plugin args

this plugin supports four arguments:

• all: searches for both files and directories
• dir: searches for directories only
• file: searches for files only

below is an example of how to configure them in the ~/.config/yazi/keymap.toml file:

[[manager.prepend_keymap]]
on = ["f", "a"]
run = "plugin fdp all"
desc = "fd search (all)"

[[manager.prepend_keymap]]
on = ["f", "c"]
run = "plugin fdp cwd"
desc = "fd search (CWD)"

[[manager.prepend_keymap]]
on = ["f", "d"]
run = "plugin fdp dir"
desc = "fd search (dirs)"

[[manager.prepend_keymap]]
on = ["f", "f"]
run = "plugin fdp file"
desc = "fd search (files)"

fzf binds

this plugin provides the following custom fzf keybindings:

• ctrl-s: toggle fzf match search for the current query results
• ctrl-]: toggle the preview window size (66%, 80%)
• ctrl-\: toggle the preview window position (top, right)
• alt-m: switch the preview to "metadata" with eza -l
• alt-c: switch the preview to "content" with eza or bat (default)
